Pool Construction.

Concrete pools, pool decks, and full backyard pool builds across the GTA. Soil testing, permits, TSSA approvals, structural rebar, gunite, plaster — we run the whole project from first dig to first swim.

A pool is a structure.
Treat it like one.

A concrete pool isn't a bigger fountain — it's a small piece of structural engineering with hydrostatic loads, freeze-thaw cycles, plumbing, gas (if heated), and electrical, all of which need permits and inspections. We're a licensed builder, so we own the permits and the schedule. You don't coordinate trades — we do.

What We Build

From new builds
to deck-only work.

New Pool Builds

Gunite/shotcrete pools, custom shapes, integrated spas, vanishing edges.

Pool Decks

Stamped concrete or interlock around new and existing pools. Cool-touch sealers.

Resurfacing

Plaster, pebble, or quartz aggregate refinish on existing concrete pools.

Coping & Tile

Natural stone or concrete coping, waterline tile install or replacement.

Mechanicals

Plumbing rough-in, pump pad, equipment shed, gas line for heaters.

Full Backyard

Pool + deck + landscaping + retaining walls — one crew, one timeline.

Compliance

Permits, code,
and the law.

  • Municipal building permits (we pull them)
  • Ontario Pool Enclosures Act fencing compliance
  • TSSA gas line approvals where heaters are installed
  • ESA electrical inspections for bonding and pumps
  • Locate clearances (Ontario One Call) before excavation
  • Engineered shop drawings on signature

Pricing Guidance
From $80K

Turnkey gunite pool builds typically range $80K–$160K depending on size, shape, finish, and site access. Pool decks from $25/sqft. Resurfacing from $7K depending on pool size. Heaters, automation, and saltwater systems add separately.

Pool projects are where the AI Designer earns its keep — the satellite view of your backyard tells us about access, neighbours, and existing trees that drive cost. We'll know the rough number after the first call.

Process

Eight stages — full transparency.

01

Design & engineering

Site survey, shape design, equipment selection, engineered drawings.

02

Permits & approvals

Municipal permit, fence permit, TSSA, ESA. We submit, follow up, schedule inspections.

03

Excavation

Locates cleared. Dig to depth and shape. Spoils hauled. Access protection laid.

04

Steel cage

Rebar tied per engineering, chairs set, plumbing rough-in installed and pressure-tested.

05

Gunite shoot

Pneumatically applied concrete forms the shell. 28-day cure starts here.

06

Tile & coping

Waterline tile and coping stones set with thinset and grout, sealed.

07

Plaster & fill

Final interior finish applied, pool fills as the plaster cures. Start-up chemistry tuned.

08

Deck & landscape

Pool deck poured/laid, landscape integrated, fence and final inspections cleared.

FAQ

Pool questions.

How long does a new pool take?

10–16 weeks from contract signing to swim, depending on permit timelines and weather. We give you a Gantt chart with every milestone before we break ground.

Concrete vs. fibreglass vs. vinyl?

Concrete (gunite) gives you any shape, any depth, any finish, and a 25+ year shell. It's the most expensive and slowest to build. We only do concrete — it's what we're good at.

Do you handle the fence?

Yes — Ontario law requires a code-compliant pool enclosure before water goes in. We coordinate fencing as part of the project.

What about permits if I don't have a fence yet?

You can't fill the pool without a fence permit cleared. We sequence the project so the fence inspection happens before plaster fill.

Can you work around an existing pool?

Yes — we do a lot of pool deck and coping work on pools we didn't build.

Saltwater or chlorine?

We install both. Saltwater feels softer, less chemical maintenance, generates chlorine in-line, costs ~$2K more upfront.
