You’ve been dreaming about transforming your backyard into the retreat your family deserves. Maybe you’ve scrolled through Pinterest boards for months, collected ideas from friends’ pools, or even talked to a few pool companies. But here’s what keeps holding you back:
Sound familiar?
You’re not alone. Most Long Beach families come to us feeling the exact same way.
We don’t make design choices for you—we educate you so you can make them yourself. That’s the difference between our approach and every other pool company in Long Beach.
Here’s what happens when you work with us:
✓ 30-40 minute “Pool School” where we explain every single design element and why it matters
✓ No pressure sales—just honest education about tile, surfaces, equipment, and layout options
✓ Website tools showing you exactly what your water color will look like based on surface choice
✓ One partner from initial design through construction and lifetime maintenance
15 years of design experience serving coastal communities. We’ve designed pools throughout Naples, Belmont Shore, Seal Beach, and Los Alamitos—from compact urban backyards to sprawling waterfront properties.
Your vision becomes reality because you understand every choice. We walk you through tile selection, surface materials, shape design, equipment placement, and water features until you feel confident in every decision.
From digging the hole till forever—that’s our commitment. We design your pool, build your pool, and maintain your pool for life.
You’ve probably talked to a pool company or two already. Maybe they showed you a few pictures, gave you a quote, and expected you to make decisions about things you don’t understand. That’s the industry standard—and it’s exactly why so many families end up with pools they’re not completely happy with.
Here’s what happens when custom pool design isn’t done right:
Some families try using online design tools or sketching ideas themselves. The problem? You don’t know what you don’t know. Pool design involves understanding water circulation, equipment requirements, structural engineering, and how different materials perform in coastal environments.
The local factor: Long Beach’s salt air affects surface materials differently than inland areas. Tile choices that work in Riverside don’t always work in Seal Beach. We’ve been designing pools in coastal communities for 15 years—we know what lasts and what doesn’t.
I worked with a family in Naples last year. They’d talked to three other companies and gotten three completely different designs. Nobody took time to explain why they recommended what they did. After our Pool School session, they understood every option—from pebble finishes to tile choices to equipment placement. They made their own decisions based on education, not sales pressure. That pool turned out exactly how they envisioned it because they understood the process.
We’ve been creating custom pool designs throughout Long Beach since we started this business. What makes our approach different? We’re not just pool builders who sketch a rectangle and call it custom design. We’re educators first, designers second.
Properties we design for:
“We talked to four pool companies before Adam. Everyone else showed us pictures and asked us to pick. Adam spent almost an hour explaining tile options, surface materials, and how everything affects water color. We finally understood what we were choosing. Our pool turned out exactly like we imagined—actually, better.” – Jennifer M., Seal Beach
Here’s what typically happens: Families come to us confused and overwhelmed. After our Pool School design session, they understand every choice they’re making. They feel confident. And when construction’s done, they’re thrilled because there are no surprises.
Jandy Certified Installer: Our designs incorporate the best equipment with extended warranties and manufacturer backing.
15 Years of Coastal Design Experience: We understand how salt air, coastal weather, and Long Beach’s unique environment affects material choices and longevity.
Lifetime Service Partnership: We’re not designing your pool then disappearing. We’ll maintain it forever—which means we design it right the first time, because we’ll be the ones taking care of it.
Most pool companies make design decisions for you. We educate you so you make them yourself. That’s not just our philosophy—it’s how we’ve operated for 15 years. When you understand what you’re choosing and why it matters, you end up with a pool you absolutely love.
What happens: We come to your property, measure your space, and talk about how your family actually uses a backyard. Not what looks good in pictures—what works for your lifestyle.
What’s included:
Timeline: 60-90 minutes at your property
Our approach: This is where everything changes. We spend 30-40 minutes walking you through every design element—surfaces, tiles, shapes, depths, equipment, water features. You learn what everything means, how it performs, and why it costs what it costs.
Professional tools we use:
Timeline: 30-40 minute education session (can be same day as consultation or separate)
How we ensure your vision: Based on what you learned in Pool School, we develop detailed design plans. You’re making the material choices—tile colors, surface finishes, coping styles, equipment selections. We’re guiding based on your priorities: aesthetics, energy efficiency, maintenance level, or budget.
What design completion includes:
Timeline: 1-2 weeks for complete design package
Our commitment: We review everything with you again. Make sure you still understand every choice. Answer new questions that came up. Adjust anything that doesn’t feel right.
What approval looks like:
Coastal properties have unique considerations—salt air affects finishes, lot sizes vary dramatically from Naples estates to Belmont Shore bungalows, and Long Beach families use their pools year-round. We’ve designed pools in every Long Beach neighborhood. We know what works in your specific area because we’ve done it dozens of times before.
Before we dive into design, here’s what almost everyone wants to know:
Honest answer: Design consultation and education are included when you build with us.
If you’re talking about the total custom pool project, you’re typically looking at $80,000-$150,000+ depending on size, features, and material selections. Compact urban pools start lower. Luxury waterfront designs with premium finishes go higher.
Here’s what matters more: You’ll understand exactly what you’re paying for and why. No surprises. No regrets about choices you didn’t understand.
Our commitment: Free design consultation and Pool School education. You only pay if you decide to build with us.
Timeline: 2-4 weeks from initial consultation to final approved design.
The consultation and Pool School happen quickly—often within the same week you contact us. Design development takes 1-2 weeks. Refinement and approval add another week. We don’t rush you through decisions that’ll affect your backyard for the next 30 years.
Our efficiency advantage: Because we handle design, construction, and lifetime maintenance, we design with the end in mind. No coordination headaches between separate companies.
Quality assurance: Our Pool School approach means you understand every material choice before construction starts.
We use website tools showing you actual water colors based on surface selections. We provide physical tile samples. We walk through equipment specifications. You see examples of completed pools with similar designs.
Our guarantee: If something doesn’t turn out right during construction, we make it right. Period. We’re going to maintain your pool forever, so we make sure it’s built correctly from day one.
What makes us different:
Most pool companies rush design meetings, make choices for you, then hand you off to a construction crew. We spend 30-40 minutes educating you so you make informed decisions. We design, build, and maintain—one partner from start to forever.
Local expertise: 15 years designing pools in Naples, Seal Beach, Belmont Shore, and throughout Long Beach. We understand coastal considerations, lot size challenges, and neighborhood aesthetics.
Our guarantee: Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back. Lifetime service partnership—we’ll maintain the pool we design and build.
Risks of skipping professional design:
Equipment placed wrong, creating noise or eyesores. Shallow ends too deep for toddlers. No seating areas. Tile choices that look great in showrooms but terrible with your water color. Steps in awkward locations. These mistakes are permanent and expensive to fix.
Benefits of professional approach: You get exactly what your family needs—not a cookie-cutter template. Energy-efficient equipment saves $500+ annually on electricity. Proper design increases your property value.
Long-term value: A well-designed custom pool becomes your family’s favorite space for 20+ years. Poor design becomes a source of regret you see every day.
Custom pool design doesn’t get easier by putting it off. Actually, it gets harder. The longer you wait, the more overwhelmed you feel looking at options online without guidance.
The longer you wait:
Long Beach families who want pools ready for summer need to start design in late winter or early spring. Design takes 2-4 weeks. Construction takes 3-6 months. If you’re dreaming of swimming next summer, we need to start the design process now.
Current availability: We’re scheduling design consultations 2-3 weeks out. Spring is our busiest season as families prepare for summer construction starts.
Stop scrolling through pool pictures feeling overwhelmed. Let’s talk about what your family actually needs and how to make it happen.
