How Reef Pools and Spas works

The Reef Pools and Spas
construction process.

How Reef Pools and Spas moves from property discovery and concept design through selections, pre-construction coordination, construction, startup, and handoff.

  1. 1

    Property and program

    We learn where you are, how the home meets the yard, what already works, what does not, and how you want life outside to feel. Photos, surveys, inspiration, priorities, and an honest investment range all help.

    This is a conversation, not a sales appointment — the goal is a shared picture of the site and the ambition.

  2. 2

    Concept and design

    The pool is developed with its context: spa, deck, views, circulation, cooking, shade, fire, lighting, grade, equipment, and future landscape. The concept gets clearer before details get expensive.

    Big moves are tested on paper while they are still cheap to change.

  3. 3

    Build the shell

    Excavation, steel reinforcement, plumbing rough-in, gunite or shotcrete, and the cure. The shell is the part you cannot see after the deck goes on, so the discipline is what protects the project for the next thirty years.

    Steel day is the most-photographed day on the job for a reason — the shape of the pool becomes structure.

    Finish and detail

    Waterproofing, tile, coping, decking, equipment pad, automation, and interior finish. Selections made earlier in the process show up here as a built environment, not a sample board.

    Most of the visible Reef Pools and Spas personality is decided in this phase, not the next one.

    Fill, start, and hand off

    First fill, system startup, water balance, automation commissioning, and owner orientation. The finished backyard is one artifact; the working pool is what keeps it that way.

    You get a working orientation, not just keys to the equipment pad.

Your part

What you can bring to the first conversation.

None of it is required. All of it helps the design start from the truth of the site instead of a guess.

  • Photos of the yard and the house from inside looking out
  • A survey or plot plan, if you have one
  • Inspiration — saved images, or simply words
  • Your priorities, and the problems worth solving
  • A comfortable total investment range
  • Timing, and anything that constrains it
