Our Process

Our Outdoor Living Space Design & Build Process

Our team develops a tailored plan based on your style, budget, practical needs, and design ideas. You can pick a fiberglass pool, a complete backyard oasis package, or opt for a DIY fiberglass pool.

Our mission is to improve your backyard living with creativity and experience. You deserve an outdoor space to enjoy with friends and family. We are here to help you make it happen. We want to unlock your yard's potential and create an amazing outdoor living space that feels like a home resort you won’t want to leave, complete with an inground fiberglass pool for a lifetime of swimming.

Discovery
We connect for a 30-minute video introduction. We learn about your desired outdoor living space, more about your property, your budget, and your timeline. We will also explain our process in more detail and identify if we are a good fit. If we are a good fit, we provide a design agreement to secure our services.
Site Meeting
We will meet at your home, walk your site, and discuss your specific vision. This includes recording your property measurements, elevations, soil conditions, current backyard conditions, and features. We then gather information about municipal regulations, zoning, bylaws, and other details related to your property. We want to make sure we get it right the first time. So, we do a lot of background work to ensure you know exactly what is possible, and we avoid any delays in the build phase

Design Review
We will then develop a 3-D design concept based on your preferences, dream sheet, and any other ideas you provide, while considering the specifics of your property and budget. This concept will show you the kinds of materials, colors, and design features on your home. This allows us to have a clear direction for your design-build process. This part of the process includes a 1-hour video meeting to discuss and review the concept and gather feedback. We make all edits and then proceed to pricing.
Pricing Review
Once we have a conceptual design that you love, we create a detailed and itemized proposal. No secrets. No surprises. You’ll know the cost. If the proposal exceeds your budget, we will collaborate with you to adjust your concept or divide the installation into phases. We also provide all documents needed for HOA approvals. Once this process is completed, we will get started

The Installation
We handle everything from concept to completion. Working closely as a team for a seamless transition.

Please note, that we require payment before beginning the design phase. Our designers spend an average of 20 hours on each design. As such, design fees are priced based on the job requirements and are credited to your project upon signing the installation contract.
