Rustic Pools, Inc.'s Unique Construction Process

Once the pool design is completed, the pool site is staked out.  A tractor  digs the hole according to the design specifications.

Plumbing & forms are put in place [Constru2.jpg (27814 bytes)] Rough plumbing is put into place.  The hole is outlined with forms and reinforced with steel.
Gunite is sprayed onto the walls to create a strong, solid structure.   These walls are impervious to rust, which can corrode steel walls, and dry-rot, which can damage wooden structures.

Track, rocks & tile are installed [Constru4.jpg (23586 bytes)] The top edge of the wall is finished with ceramic tile along the waterline. The track, which holds the liner, is attached underneath the tile so that, when the liner is hung, it will be protected from exposure to damaging sunlight.   Decorative rocks and/or waterfalls can be placed along the edges, if desired.  The deck  is formed and ready to be poured.
The deck is in place and a layer of foam is attached to the walls, providing cushioning and insulation.  The bottom is finished with a smooth layer of a lightweight concrete called Zonelite Foam applied to walls, zonelite to bottom [Constru5.jpg (18827 bytes)]
Liner installed [Stairs01b.jpg (21834 bytes)]

With the custom-made liner in place, the pool is ready for water.

 

Here is the finished product, complete with rocks and   waterfall. Landscaping can now be added.
