We offer a variety of services to meet your pool and patio needs.
Because pools are custom projects — each with unique specifications, site conditions, and build materials — it is difficult to cite an average price.
By speaking with local pool builders and providing some general specification, you will develop a sense for the typical pool prices for your home.
When you invite a designer to your home, he or she will begin by measuring your backyard and conducting a general survey of your overall property.
The designer will ask you about your vision for your yard. They willdiscuss available options such as pool shape, dimensions and design features.
After learning how your family plans to use the pool and taking into account any special requests they will create a custom pool plan.
Soil that expands, contracts, shifts, or is unstable for other reasons can impact a pool’s construction and long-term stability. For example, in an open excavated hole, sandy soil may cause the walls to collapse. Soil with a high clay content may expand or contract with seasonal temperature or moisture changes.
Professional pool contractors are accustomed to these kinds of challenges and have solutions for the majority of them. Tactics vary by the nature of the challenge and building practices in the local market.
The time it takes to construct your patio will depend on the material you choose. Concrete pad patios can be poured in a single day but will just need additional time to cure before use. Flagstone and brick patios will require more time and they require additional labor. These types of patios can usually be completed in a workweek, depending on the size and complexity of the patio.
Your patio may need to be sealed to help protect it from the elements, but the need for sealing will depend on the type of material to use. Our team can help you determine if sealing your patio is the correct decision for your home and will be able to address any additional concerns you have about patio sealing.
In most cases, you will not need a permit to construct a patio in Virginia. This includes any patios made from brick, block, pavers, stone, or concrete. Because patios are most often built at grade, or ground level, permits are not required. However, if you are planning to install a large patio that spans 500 square feet or more, you may need a permit due to the size of the project.
