When you finally build your backyard pool, you want it to be more than just a place to swim. You want your pool to be a perfect getaway spot with beautifully tiled surfaces, dynamic water features, enchanting lighting, elegant landscaping, and a personality all its own. Whatever you imagine you can bring to life with the exciting selection of available pool finishing options.
Think of creating your perfect pool the way you would build a perfect home. You begin with the size, style, and shape, and then customize it to fit your desires and your lifestyle.
Multiple Entries
Not everyone wants to jump feet first right into the water. Young children, older adults and the less adventuresome often prefer a gradual submersion. Consider adding full-length steps and extra ladders to provide the easy access into the water that your family and friends require.
Grottos
Your pool can capture a bit of nature at its most rugged when you add a grotto to your design. Your grotto can be constructed with natural rocks and boulders. It can be a bold structure incorporating waterfalls, cave-style openings, and rocky, back-to-nature elements. Consider adding a spa as well to take date night to your backyard.

Pool Illumination
The water in your pool can present a beguiling performance when you add the right light source. A wide selection of decorative lighting choices let you light your way for easier nighttime pool access or add a little shimmery, sparkly fun.

- LED Color Changing Lights – Lighting that shifts to mirror your mood
- Fiber Optic Lighting – Beautiful pure illumination that showcases your pool
Beautiful Landscaping
You can enhance your pool with stunning green plants, bushes and trees that are indigenous to your region. But attractive landscaping doesn’t have to focus on plants at all. Your unique poolside look can come from a combination of natural stones, tiled surface designs, arbors and deck furnishings, with hints of wild grasses and beds of colorful flowers.
