You’ve seen the cookie-cutter pools in your neighborhood. They look fine until you notice the cracking coping, the patio that doesn’t match, or the drainage issues nobody planned for.
That’s what happens when pool companies treat every yard the same. Huntington properties have rocky soil, varying water tables, and strict local codes. Your pool needs to work with those realities, not against them.
We handle custom in-ground pools in Suffolk County and Nassau County with a masonry-first approach. That means your pool coping, patio, retaining walls, and grading all get designed together from day one. No mismatched materials. No callbacks to fix settling pavers. Just a backyard that works as one cohesive space because we built it that way.
We started as a masonry company serving Nassau and Suffolk Counties. We built chimneys, patios, driveways, and outdoor living spaces for over two decades. When customers started asking us to handle their pool surrounds and hardscaping, we realized most pool companies don’t actually understand masonry.
They subcontract it out. They don’t coordinate materials. And homeowners end up with beautiful pools surrounded by mediocre stonework that settles, cracks, or just doesn’t match.
We’re in-ground pool builders in Huntington, NY who do the masonry ourselves. That means your pool patio masonry in Suffolk County gets the same attention as the pool itself. One team. One timeline. One standard.
You’ll meet with us on-site to walk your property. We’re looking at drainage, sun exposure, access for equipment, and how your yard’s grade affects the design. This isn’t a sales pitch—it’s a real assessment of what’s possible and what’s not.
From there, we create a custom design that includes the pool, all masonry work, and any grading or retaining walls you’ll need. You’ll see exactly what materials we’re using and why. We handle every permit Huntington requires, and we coordinate the inspections so you’re not chasing down town officials.
Once we break ground, the same crew handles excavation, pool installation, plumbing, electrical, and all the masonry. We’re not handing your project off to three different subcontractors. When the job’s done, your pool, patio, coping, and landscaping all look like they belong together—because we planned and built them that way.

Your project includes complete design services, all necessary permits, professional excavation, and final grading. We’re handling the plumbing, electrical, and structural work that most homeowners don’t even think about until something goes wrong.
But here’s what separates us: the masonry. Custom pool coping and tile in Suffolk County that actually complements your home’s style. Concrete pool surrounds in Nassau County that won’t settle or crack in three years. Pool retaining walls and grading that manage water properly so you’re not dealing with erosion or flooding.
Huntington properties often need more site work than homeowners expect. If your yard slopes, we’re building retaining walls that handle the grade change and create usable space. If drainage is an issue, we’re regrading before the pool goes in. And if you want an outdoor kitchen, fire pit, or pergola as part of your pool area, we’re coordinating all of it so your backyard functions as one complete space.
This is what complete backyard poolscapes in Suffolk County should look like. Not just a pool dropped into your yard with some pavers around it.
You’re looking at $35,000 to $100,000 depending on size, materials, and how much site work your property needs. That’s a wide range because Huntington yards vary dramatically.
If your property has good drainage, easy equipment access, and minimal grading needs, you’ll land on the lower end. If we’re dealing with rocky soil, significant grade changes, or retaining walls to create a level pool area, costs go up. The pool itself is only part of the budget—masonry, permits, electrical, and landscaping all add to the total.
We give you a fixed-price estimate after seeing your property. No surprises, no change orders unless you change the scope. You’ll know exactly what you’re paying before we start.
Fiberglass pools are pre-manufactured shells that get dropped into your excavated hole. They’re low-maintenance, smooth, and handle Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles well. The downside is you’re limited to existing shapes and sizes.
Vinyl pools use a liner over a frame structure. They’re the most affordable upfront but liners need replacing every 7-10 years, which costs $4,000-$6,000 each time. They’re fine if you want a basic pool and don’t mind ongoing liner maintenance.
Concrete pools are fully custom. Any shape, any depth, any feature you want. They require more maintenance than fiberglass—you’re brushing weekly and resurfacing every 10-15 years—but you get complete design freedom. For Huntington properties with unique layouts or specific aesthetic goals, concrete makes the most sense.
Plan on 8-12 weeks from permit approval to finished pool. Permitting in Huntington typically takes 4-6 weeks depending on the time of year and how backed up the building department is.
Once we start, excavation and pool installation take 1-2 weeks. Plumbing, electrical, and initial backfill happen next. Then we’re building your pool patio masonry, coping, and any retaining walls or grading work. Final landscaping and cleanup wrap up the project.
Weather delays happen—we can’t pour concrete in freezing temps or work in heavy rain. And if we hit unexpected ledge rock during excavation, that adds time. But we’ll keep you updated throughout so you know where things stand.
Yes. Huntington requires a barrier around all in-ground pools. That can be a fence, a wall, or your house itself if it forms part of the enclosure. The barrier needs to be at least 4 feet high with self-closing, self-latching gates.
You can’t use your pool as the barrier—the fence has to surround the pool area. And if you have an above-ground pool with a removable ladder, that doesn’t count as a barrier either.
We’ll walk you through Huntington’s specific requirements during design. Some homeowners integrate the fence into their landscaping with hedges or decorative walls. Others go with simple aluminum fencing to meet code without blocking sightlines. Either way, we make sure your design passes inspection before we build.
You’re testing and balancing water chemistry weekly during swim season. That means checking pH, chlorine, alkalinity, and adjusting as needed. Most homeowners spend 15-30 minutes per week on this once they get the hang of it.
You’ll also skim debris, brush the walls, and vacuum the pool. If you install an automatic cleaner, that handles vacuuming for you. Filters need cleaning or backwashing every few weeks depending on usage and your system type.
Seasonal maintenance includes opening the pool in spring and closing it in fall. That’s winterizing the plumbing, balancing chemistry for storage, and covering the pool. Many Huntington homeowners hire a pool service for opening and closing even if they handle weekly maintenance themselves. Annual costs for DIY maintenance run $500-$1,200 for chemicals and supplies. Full-service contracts run $2,000-$4,000 per year depending on what’s included.
Yes, and this is where having masons handle your pool project makes a difference. We’re building custom pool features in Nassau County and Suffolk County as part of the original design—not bolting them on afterward.
Waterfalls, grottos, and rock features require structural masonry work that integrates with your pool’s design. Swim-up bars need proper support, plumbing for sinks, and electrical for lighting or appliances. Tanning ledges, beach entries, and raised spas all affect your pool’s layout and mechanical systems.
If you want these features, we’re designing them in from the start. That keeps costs reasonable and ensures everything works together structurally and aesthetically. Adding features later means tearing up finished work and retrofitting systems that weren’t planned for it—which costs significantly more and rarely looks as clean.
