Phase 2 | Fact finding

Site Visit & Consultation

We’ll schedule an on-site meeting with you at your home to walk the yard, stake out possible pool sizes, and discuss how you plan to use the space.

This is a collaborative conversation where we explore design possibilities, understand your priorities, and align everything with your budget.

We'll use tape measures, drones, and site-marking tools to display potential layouts

We'll work together to create an ideal layout

Phase 3 | Refining the Details

Design & Bid

If the design is simple, we get straight to bidding the project. If there are multiple elements and materials selection, a design of the site through 3D renders and construction plans helps to paint a clear project.
We understand how important it is to marry the design with the budget.

Phase 4 | Pre-construction

Permitting

Once the bid is approved, we handle the permitting process. Depending on your zoning and municipality, this phase can take anywhere from two weeks to two months.

We manage all submissions, revisions, and follow-ups with the permitting office so you don’t have to.

Phase 5 | Heavy Lifting

Construction Begins

With permits in hand, we break ground. This is when the vision starts to come to life. Most projects take about 6–8 weeks from start to finish, depending on scope and weather.

Our team handles everything from excavation to final finishing.

What You Need to Know

You have questions. We have answers. We're always here to help—especially when it comes to frequently asked questions.

How much does a dip pool cost?

We recommend a starting budget of $60,000 for our dip pool. Prices vary due to two main costs: installation and finishing.

The pool equipment and installation are consistent from project to project based on size. But, the finishing cost (hardscaping and landscaping around the pool) is variable due to design, slope of your yard, and other factors.

How long does installation take?

Once all the paperwork is done, the fun really starts! We average an installation window of 30 days.

Our installation process includes putting in the pool, getting it running, checking the heating system, and beautifying the pool with hardscaping and landscaping.

How are dip pools different from 
regular pools?

Dip pools are spas. They can reach higher temperatures than traditional pools and come with 10+ jets for your leisure.

Additionally, dip pools are smaller than regular pools and aren’t as deep. They are for lounging and relaxation, not swimming and diving.

Because dip pools are smaller than traditional swimming pools, they require less water to fill up, so that’s extra savings for you, too!

Can I use my dip pool year-round?

Absolutely! Obviously, you can use our dip pools to cool off during hot Tennessee summers, but our dip pools also double as hot tubs in the winter. No need to winterize your pool; instead, keep it warm  throughout the entire cold season and enjoy!

What are your pools made of?

Our pools are made of fiberglass, a highly durable material that requires minimal maintenance and lasts a long time.

How long is the design and permit process?

We average a three-month lead time to begin installing your new dip pool.

 In the months leading up to installation, we’re designing your pool, finalizing contracts, and completing the important permit paperwork.
