Pool Area Design & Installation Services
Making the decision to install a swimming pool in your Lexington-Central KY area yard is just the first step to having a the backyard oasis of your dreams. What type of pool are you going to install? In ground pool or above ground pool? Fiberglass or gunite pool are just a few questions your will need to answer.
Once you’ve decided on your pool design there are several other questions to answer. How big and what kind of pool patio will you decide on? Do you want an outdoor kitchen or fire pit area? Sunbathing area or a Cabana for shade? How much will all this cost?
Example pool design decisions we can help with
Pool Location
View: Your view of the pool from inside the house and the rest of your outdoor living area. Adding lighting or water features will make it more attractive. Seeing the pool from the house is essential if you have kids.
Sun: Does your pool location maximize sun exposure to help keep the water warm?
Wind: Wind will cool the pool water and increase evaporation. Plant or build screens to shelter.
Accessibility: How will people enter and exit the pool? Where will you hang out around the pool?
Storage: Where will you keep the filtration equipment, pool cleaner, toys, etc?
Pool Style Options
The first question to consider when determining your pool design is whether the pool should be in the ground or above it. Soil excavation and removal is costly in the Lexington / Central KY Area, but in-ground pools generally have a more permanent feel than most above-ground types.
ABOVE GROUND POOLS
Above ground pools are the cheapest swimming pool option. Above ground pools also give you the least number of options for design. You are typically limited to a round or oval design.
SEMI IN GROUND (STEALTH) POOLS
Combining benefits of both above ground & inground swimming pools, Stealth pools are aesthetically more pleasing & easily customizable. You can add features such as decking or pavers to create the appearance of an inground pool for a fraction of the cost!
VINYL LINER POOLS
Vinyl Liner pools are the most economical of the in-ground pool options. The competitive pricing of vinyl liner pools gives the homeowner the ability to customize and add many options that give a unique flair to each installation. Vinyl liner pools are very popular in the Lexington & Central Kentucky area due to speed of installation, variety of selection, and economical pricing.
CUSTOM GUNITE (Concrete) POOLS
With a gunite pool, your design is as open as your imagination. The hand-crafted process allows for most any idea you can dream of. Beach entry, vanishing edge, tanning shelf, or intricate shapes are easily executed in this construction style.
FIBERGLASS POOLS
While fiberglass pools have about the same initial cost of a concrete swimming pool, it comes with it by far the lowest cost of ownership. Unlike concrete/gunite swimming pools, fiberglass is nonporous, which brings with it two specific benefits: it reduces the needed use of chemicals by about 75%, and it prevents the buildup of algae on the inner surface, reducing cleaning costs.
