"I had a thirty-year-old pool that needed a complete facelift. I solicited several bids. The estimator for Custom Pools & Remodelling arrived, discussed the options for what I wanted done, and prepared an estimate. I subsequently negotiated on the price of the acrylic deck/lanai coating and was given a better price. The attitudes of the estimator and the business owner and the willingness to negotiate and to reach a fair price, even though it was not the lowest bid, helped me make the decision to go with them. I was told that all the work could be completed in 10 working days or less.

We set the date for work to begin. I had not received a call by the end of the week before the begin date to confirm and so I called the business number. It was answered by a female family member who took messages on two occasions. I got a call back from the owner, Shannon Stevens, on the day the construction was to begin. He told me that construction would begin the next day.

The next day, crew members arrived about 9:00 AM and began work on the deck/lanai preparation. They thoroughly pressure washed and then applied the initial coat of sealer. The crew worked hard all day, and there was no slacking off. Very professional! The following day, another crew arrived to drain the pool and to begin work preparing the interior surface. They had to cut out a section with a piece of deteriorating re-bar, replace it, and re-concrete it. They then worked to prepare the surface, including blast washing, digging under the edge tile that was to remain, and generally prepare for other work. That crew was exceptionally hard-working and professional. They knew what they were doing, worked efficiently as a team, and did not slack off at all. They were terrific. 

The work continued with pouring the new Wet-Edge finish and applying it smoothly in all areas. They feathered the mixture with the edge tiles that was remaining and made it perfect. They also replaced the pool drain and worked with the mounting of the existing pool light to make sure they were installed correctly. They then began refilling the pool, and this was to done without interruption until the next day. Shannon came back to personally add appropriate chemicals, provide instructions for brushing, and to provide loaner of an automatic pool sweeper. I began a daily brushing down of the interior surface of the pool, which was to continue while the coating cured for 30 days. I also opened the filter chamber and rinsed the filter two times during that period.
A crew returned two times to apply the acrylic coating to the deck and lanai, and they did a good job with that work too,

The contract called for Shannon to return to provide "Pool 101" instruction. That never really happened, and telephone contact these next few weeks were difficult. After two weeks and no additional start-up contact or chemical treatment, I noticed algae growing on the pool walls. I called to ask Shannon to set a time to come by for "Pool 101" and to adjust the chemicals. Again, the person answering the phone is a family member and it's not a professional business phone service. Shannon finally called and told me that there is a  Pool Owner's Manual at their website (a PDF file) but it returns a 404 Not Found message. He had provided a water testing kit to me, and I used it to draw water samples and tale them to the nearby Pinch A Penny for testing. He suggested that I but a couple of gallons of chlorine and add those to stop the algae. He said there would be no problem with doing that and that it wouldn't hurt the pool surface while in curing mode.

Shannon did stop by to check the chemicals on the third week, and to pick up his loaner pool cleaner. (I had replaced his with my own cleaner and it worked more effectively to cover the bottom  and the walls of the pool.) He also had located two specially mounting automatic door closers for the pool cages two screen doors, and he installed those. He left the receipt and I sent his a check for that amount. 

Overall I am very pleased with the quality of the materials and the work ethic of the crew members. They showed up when they said they would, were always hard-working and professional, and they did an excellent job. With the exception of the problems with the 30-day start-up period, I think the job went very well. The pool and the area around it look brand new, crisp, and inviting. I definitely think that the value I received for the money was worth every penny. Shannon Stevens is friendly, professional, and is on-site to make sure the job is done correctly. I just think he is overwhelmed with work projects and that was the primary reason our "Pool 101" didn't happen. However, I'm seeking that information elsewhere and am resuming the commercial weekly pool chemical service I've used for many years.

"I hired Picasso to redo my pool, update our hard scape and landscaping, and to install an outdoor kitchen and living area. Will and his team were patient every step of the way while we worked through that plans and renderings. When it came time for construction, others has said it would be months of work. Picasso did it in less than half the time - and the result was paradise in my own backyard. Highly recommended."

"We called from estimate and Chris Tricke showed up 15 minutes early. He explained the product and the process in a very professional manner and service put and pressure on us. We called him the same usually and agreed to the installation. On installation day he showed up 30 minutes early and immediately set to wash after servicing the entire installation process with me. We made a couple of adjustment and he finished the work within the time from he promised. He lift my pat in cleaner than when he started. Bravo! Very high recommendation!"

"The crew foreman explained the process from start to finish. He did warn us that the grinding would make  a lot of dust, but the crew was very diligent in cleaning up after each day's work. They showed up everyday and put in a full days work. The plumbing job was very neat. The tile work and travertine looks great. Best of all the pool looks like a million bucks.

FAQs for swimming pool in ground build or installation projects in Bradenton, FL

Yes, it is possible to build an above-ground infinity or zero-edge pool by raising the deck and surrounding poolscape to create a continuous water edge. This design produces a zero-edge effect when the pool structure is properly elevated. However, additional work to adjust the deck and haul extra dirt can increase labor and land preparation costs.

An infinity pool incurs higher expenses than a regular pool because its specialized design and engineered features demand extra materials and precise construction methods. The design modifications required for a true endless edge raise the overall cost by 20% to 50%. This increase reflects additional structural planning, enhanced finishes, and superior craftsmanship.

An infinity pool is designed with at least one edge over which water flows, creating the appearance of a vanishing edge that seamlessly merges with the surrounding landscape or horizon. The pool has an exposed wall that is slightly lower than the water level, allowing water to spill over into a catch basin below, where it is recirculated back into the pool.

Infinity pool construction requires a significant and defined time commitment. Concrete installations are completed within three to six months, vinyl projects within four to eight weeks, and fiberglass pool installations within two to four weeks. The overall timeline depends on the design complexity and the skill level of the contractor, with challenging conditions extending the project duration.

Infinity pools require additional maintenance compared to regular pools because their unique design requires constant water level monitoring to preserve the continuous overflow effect. The catch basin must be diligently cleaned to prevent debris accumulation, and the maintenance routine varies with pool materials—concrete surfaces need extra care to prevent algae growth, while fiberglass and vinyl demand less upkeep.
