Questions

Questions, answered.

Cost, timing, ground conditions and what to expect, before you ever pick up the phone.

What does a pool cost in the Charleston area?

It depends on the pool type, size, site access and how much deck and hardscape go around it. After walking your property, we price every part on its own line, so you can see the pool, the deck, the spa and the extras separately and adjust from there.

Fiberglass or concrete?

Fiberglass installs faster and needs less upkeep. Concrete can be any shape, size or depth. Both work well here. We recommend based on your yard, your access and how you want to use the pool.

Does the high water table matter?

Yes. Much of the Lowcountry sits on sandy soil with water close to the surface, which affects how a pool is dug, set and protected. We plan dewatering and drainage for your lot before the build starts.

Can you build the deck, kitchen and fire pit too?

Yes. That is the point. One team plans and builds the pool and everything around it, so the materials, levels and drainage all match. Our family's crews have been building decks and patios across the Lowcountry since 2015.

Do you handle permits and HOA approval?

We review what your town and HOA require during the proposal stage and put it in the schedule, so there are no surprises once work starts.

What happens at the design consultation?

We visit your home, walk the yard, take measurements and talk through your ideas, budget and timing. You do not need a plan. A few photos you like are plenty.

What areas do you serve?

Charleston and the surrounding islands, from Mount Pleasant and Daniel Island to Kiawah and Folly Beach, plus Summerville and the Hilton Head and Bluffton area.
