Your Backyard Becomes the Neighborhood Destination

You know that feeling when you drive past houses with stunning pools and think “someday”? That someday can be this year.

A professionally built inground pool transforms more than your backyard. It becomes the place where your kids learn to swim, where summer barbecues turn into lasting memories, and where you actually want to spend your evenings after work. No more weekend trips to crowded public pools or expensive club memberships.

The right pool construction means decades of enjoyment without the headaches. Proper excavation prevents settling and cracking. Quality materials withstand harsh Northeast winters. Professional installation ensures everything works exactly as it should from day one.

Licensed Pool Contractors

We Build Pools That Last Decades

JAS Aquatics has been building custom inground pools for Long Island homeowners who want it done right. We’re licensed, insured, and familiar with every Nassau County permit requirement that can slow down or stop a pool project.

You won’t find us cutting corners on excavation or using subpar materials to pad our margins. Every pool we build uses quality construction techniques that handle everything from ground freeze to heavy summer use.

We’ve seen too many homeowners deal with cracking, settling, and equipment failures from contractors who underbid projects then rushed through the work. That’s not how we operate.

Pool Installation Process

From Design to First Swim

Your pool project starts with a site evaluation and design consultation. We measure your space, discuss your vision, and create a custom design that fits your property and budget. No cookie-cutter approaches or pressure to add expensive features you don’t need.

Once you approve the design, we handle all permit applications and scheduling with Nassau County. The excavation begins after permits are approved, followed by plumbing and electrical rough-in work. We coordinate inspections at each phase to keep everything moving smoothly.

The pool shell construction comes next, followed by decking, coping, and any custom water features. After final inspections and equipment startup, we walk you through everything you need to know about operating and maintaining your new pool. Most projects take 4-6 weeks from excavation to completion, weather permitting.

Inground Pool Construction

Complete Pool Construction and Installation

Every pool project includes professional excavation, plumbing and electrical installation, pool shell construction, and equipment setup. We handle the entire process from permits to final inspection, so you don’t have to coordinate multiple contractors or worry about who’s responsible if something goes wrong.

Our pool construction covers custom sizing and shaping to fit your property, quality decking and coping installation, and proper drainage to prevent water issues. We work with homeowners throughout Lefferts Mill and Nassau County who want custom pools built to last.

The difference between a pool that looks great for a few years and one that performs well for decades comes down to excavation quality, proper materials, and attention to detail during construction. We don’t rush through projects or take shortcuts that cause problems later.

Most inground pool projects take 4-6 weeks from excavation to completion, though weather and permit processing can affect timelines. The actual construction sequence includes excavation (1-2 days), plumbing and electrical rough-in (2-3 days), pool shell construction (3-5 days), and finishing work including decking and equipment installation (1-2 weeks). We provide detailed timelines during the design phase and keep you updated throughout construction. Nassau County permit approval typically adds 1-2 weeks to the front end of the project.
Nassau County requires building permits for all inground pool construction, plus separate permits for electrical and plumbing work. Pool projects also need setback approvals to ensure proper distance from property lines and structures. We handle all permit applications and coordinate required inspections throughout the construction process. The permit process typically takes 1-2 weeks, and we don’t begin excavation until all permits are approved. This protects you from potential code violations and ensures your pool meets all local safety requirements.
Inground pool costs vary significantly based on size, shape, materials, and site conditions. Basic rectangular pools typically start around $40,000-$50,000, while custom designs with water features and premium finishes can range $60,000-$100,000 or more. Factors affecting price include excavation difficulty, pool size and depth, decking materials, and equipment choices. We provide detailed written estimates after evaluating your property and discussing your preferences. Our pricing includes all construction, permits, and equipment – no surprise charges or hidden fees during the project.
We provide complete startup service and training for your new pool, including water balancing, equipment operation, and basic maintenance procedures. While we focus on pool construction rather than ongoing maintenance, we can recommend reliable local pool service companies if you prefer professional maintenance. We also provide warranty service for all construction and equipment issues. Most homeowners find pool maintenance straightforward once they understand the basics, and we make sure you’re comfortable with everything before we consider the project complete.
Long Island soil conditions vary significantly, and we encounter everything from sand to clay to occasional rock ledge. We include site evaluation in every estimate to identify potential excavation challenges upfront. If we discover unexpected conditions during excavation, we discuss options and costs before proceeding. Most soil conditions don’t significantly impact the project timeline, though rock removal or extensive dewatering can add time and cost. Our experience with local soil conditions helps us anticipate most situations during the planning phase.
