A typical pool project will take about four to six weeks. However, there are many factors that can affect the time it will take to build your pool. Weather is the number one factor that can affect project time. The second is the complexity of the project. For example; Is it a pool/spa combination? What kind of pool are you building (fiberglass or shotcrete)? How complex is the surrounding decking? Is it a new home construction? Are there other contractors involved?
It is always our goal to finish your pool as quickly as possible without ever compromising quality. We will be happy to estimate the time it will take for your pool once we determine the type and design.
We will need a minimum 10’ of space to gain access to the yard to build the pool. We need the room to bring in the equipment necessary to excavate the hole, remove dirt as needed and haul materials in and out of the jobsite.
Hawaiian Pools employs our own construction crews and service personnel as well as support staff. We own our own equipment, such as dump trucks and excavators, etc. We work with professional partners for the surrounding decking of the pool as well as the electrical hook ups and gas plumbing. You do not need to make any phone calls during the construction process as we coordinate the full project.
We will help coordinate as much as possible throughout the project. We can refer you to experienced HVAC, Electrical, decking and landscaping contractors for those aspects of the job. Once selected, we will work hand in hand with those contractors to coordinate the timing of their work in an efficient manner.
There will be a lot of dirt excavated in order make room for your new pool. Depending on the slope of your yard, we will determine how much of the excavated soils should remain onsite to level everything out once the pool and decking are completed. Any extra dirt will be hauled out, to other locations where the soil can be used for various other applications.
