Skimmer Pool
A skimmer pool, also known as a skimmer-style pool, is a common type of swimming pool design. It features a skimmer system built into the pool's perimeter that helps remove debris and contaminants from the water's surface. This skimmer system uses a floating weir door to draw in water, along with any leaves, bugs, or other debris, into a collection basket or filter. From there, the water is filtered, cleaned, and returned to the pool, ensuring a clearer and more inviting swimming environment. Skimmer pools are popular due to their effective maintenance of water cleanliness and ease of use.

Fiber Glass Pool
Fiber glass pools are a type of in-ground swimming pool that are constructed using fiberglass-reinforced plastic. These pools are manufactured in a factory as pre-formed shells that are then transported to the installation site. Here's a description of fiberglass pools:
Fiber Glass Pool
Material:
Fiberglass pools are made by layering fiberglass strands and resin to create a strong, durable, and watertight structure. The gel coat applied to the surface gives the pool a smooth and attractive finish.
Installation:
Installation of a fiberglass pool involves excavating a hole in the ground that matches the shape and size of the pool shell. The pre-formed fiberglass shell is then placed in the hole and leveled. The surrounding area is backfilled, and the pool is connected to plumbing and electrical systems.
Design:
Fiberglass pools come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and designs, including classic geometric shapes and freeform styles. Some models may include built-in steps, benches, or even spa features.
Low Maintenance:
The smooth gel-coated surface of fiberglass pools resists algae growth and requires less maintenance compared to concrete or vinyl liner pools. This can lead to reduced chemical usage and less frequent cleaning.
Durability:
Fiberglass is a strong material that can withstand shifts in the ground without cracking or leaking. Additionally, the flexibility of the material allows it to handle ground movement better than some other pool types.
Comfort:
The smooth surface of fiberglass pools is gentle on swimmers' skin and swimsuits.
Installation Time:
Fiberglass pools generally have a faster installation timeline compared to concrete pools, since the shell is pre-formed and doesn't require extensive on-site construction.
Cost:
While fiberglass pools might have a higher upfront cost compared to vinyl liner pools, they often have lower long-term maintenance costs due to their durability and reduced need for repairs.
Limitations:
The main limitation of fiberglass pools is that they come in standard shapes and sizes. Customization options are more limited compared to concrete pools.
Budget and Timeline:
Providing cost estimates and project timelines for both the landscaping and interior design aspects, along with ongoing communication and updates.
Contractor Collaboration:
Collaborating with contractors, artisans, and suppliers to bring the designs to life, overseeing the implementation of both the landscaping and interior design plans.
Client Presentation and Approval:
Presenting the finalized design plans to the client, incorporating feedback and making adjustments as needed.
Project Execution:
Overseeing the construction and installation phases, ensuring that the landscaping and interior design are executed according to the plans.
Final Reveal:
Revealing the completed project to the client, showcasing the seamless integration of the interior and exterior spaces.
Overall, fiberglass pools offer a combination of aesthetic appeal, durability, and low maintenance, making them a popular choice for homeowners looking to add a swimming pool to their property.
Concrete Cement Pool
RCC (Reinforced Concrete Cement) swimming pools are a type of in-ground pool constructed using a combination of concrete and steel reinforcement. Here's a brief description:
Concrete Cement Pool
Construction:
RCC swimming pools are built by excavating the desired pool shape, then constructing a framework of steel bars (rebar) to reinforce the concrete structure. The rebar framework is placed within the excavated area, and then concrete is poured to create the pool's shell.
Customization:
RCC pools offer a high level of customization in terms of size, shape, and features. This allows you to design a pool that suits your specific preferences and the available space.
Durability:
Reinforced concrete is a durable material that can withstand the forces exerted by water and ground movement. Properly constructed and maintained RCC pools can have a long lifespan.
Finishing:
The interior of an RCC pool can be finished with a variety of materials, such as plaster, tiles, or aggregates, depending on your aesthetic preferences and budget.
Versatility:
RCC pools can accommodate various design elements, such as steps, benches, and attached spa features. They can also be integrated with water features like fountains and waterfalls.
Construction Time:
Building an RCC pool is a more involved process compared to other pool types like fiberglass, and it usually takes longer due to the time required for concrete curing.
Cost:
RCC pools often have a higher upfront cost due to the labor and materials involved in their construction. However, they offer long-term durability and customization options.
Maintenance:
Proper maintenance is essential to prevent cracks and leaks in the concrete over time. Regular maintenance includes monitoring the pool's pH balance, applying surface treatments, and addressing any potential issues promptly.
Landscaping Integration:
RCC pools can be integrated seamlessly with landscaping features to create a cohesive outdoor space.
When considering an RCC pool, it’s important to work with experienced pool contractors who understand the complexities of design, construction, and maintenance. This will help ensure that you get a pool that meets your expectations and provides years of enjoyment.
