Framing and Screed Pool Surround

We will construct the pool’s surrounding framework and meticulously adjust it to the contour of the fibreglass pool, ensuring precision and alignment. This step is typically completed in a single day.

Concrete Collar Pouring and Equipment Pad Framing

We pour a concrete collar around the perimeter of the inground pool, serving as a foundation for the stone coping and ensuring structural integrity of the pool. Simultaneously, we will frame the equipment pad.
