Pool Installation Process

Simple Process, Professional Results

First, we come to your property for a consultation. You’ll discuss your vision, budget, and timeline while we assess your space and soil conditions. No pressure, just honest conversation about what’s possible.

Next comes design and permitting. We handle all the paperwork with Nassau County and create detailed plans that match your specifications. This phase takes 2-4 weeks, depending on permit approval times.

Then excavation begins. Professional crews dig your pool, install plumbing and electrical systems, and pour the concrete shell. The entire construction process typically takes 6-8 weeks, weather permitting. You’ll know exactly what’s happening each step of the way.

Most inground pools at Herricks take 6–8 weeks to complete once construction begins. However, the entire process, from initial consultation to swimming, typically takes 10 to14 weeks. This period includes design time, permit approval through Nassau County, and actual construction. Weather conditions can extend timelines during winter months, which is why most pool construction happens between April and October. Complex designs or challenging soil conditions may add 1-2 weeks to the construction phase.
Pool construction in Herricks requires building permits from Nassau County, plus electrical permits for pool equipment and lighting. You’ll also need approvals for any changes to property drainage and setback compliance verification. Most projects require a site survey to confirm property lines and utility locations. The permit process typically takes 2-4 weeks, depending on county workload. Professional pool builders handle all permit applications and coordinate required inspections throughout construction to promote code compliance.
Custom inground pools in Herricks typically range from $60,000 to $120,000 depending on size, features, and site conditions. Basic rectangular pools start around $60,000, while elaborate designs with water features, heating, and premium finishes can exceed $100,000. Factors affecting cost include excavation difficulty, pool size, decking materials, and equipment selections. Most homeowners invest $75,000-$90,000 for a well-appointed custom pool. Financing options are available, and quality construction provides an excellent return on investment for Herricks properties.
Herricks sits on typical Long Island soil with clay layers and varying drainage characteristics. Most properties have adequate drainage, but some areas require additional excavation or drainage systems. Rocky conditions are uncommon but possible. Professional pool builders conduct soil assessments during the design phase to identify any challenges and adjust construction methods accordingly. Proper excavation and backfill techniques prevent future settling or structural issues. Experienced local contractors understand these soil conditions and plan accordingly.
Many Herricks homes require electrical upgrades to support pool equipment safely. Modern pools need prideful 220V circuits for pumps, heaters, and lighting systems. Older homes may need panel upgrades to handle the additional electrical load. A licensed electrician evaluates your current service during the design phase and recommends necessary upgrades. All electrical work must meet current codes and pass county inspections. Professional pool builders coordinate electrical work with qualified contractors to promote safe, compliant installations.
Inground pools require regular chemical balancing, filter cleaning, and equipment maintenance to stay clean and safe. Daily tasks include skimming debris and checking chemical levels. Weekly maintenance involves brushing walls, vacuuming, and testing water chemistry. Monthly tasks include cleaning filters and inspecting equipment. Most pool owners spend 2–4 hours a week on basic maintenance or hire professional pool services. Quality construction and proper equipment reduce maintenance requirements significantly. Your pool builder provides detailed maintenance instructions and can recommend reliable local service companies.
