You’re not just getting a hole filled with water. You’re creating the space where your kids learn to swim, where summer weekends happen, where you finally use your backyard the way you always wanted to.
A professionally installed in-ground pool in Nassau County increases your property value by 8-15% according to the National Association of Realtors. But the real return is what happens after the construction crew leaves. No more packing the car for beach trips. No more fighting crowds at public pools. Just walk outside.
The right pool transforms how you use your property. It becomes the reason friends ask to come over. The reason your teenagers actually want to be home. The reason you stop looking at vacation rentals and start enjoying what you already own.
We’ve been serving Long Beach, Nassau County, and Suffolk County for nearly two decades. We started with masonry and construction—work that taught us how Long Island soil behaves, how coastal water tables shift, and what it takes to build something that lasts in this specific environment.
Building pools on Long Island isn’t like building them anywhere else. Sandy soil shifts. Clay doesn’t drain. Setback requirements vary by town. We’ve handled these challenges on hundreds of properties across the area, so we know what works and what causes problems three years down the road.
Every project is managed by an owner, not handed off to subcontractors. You get experienced crews who show up when they say they will, communicate clearly, and treat your property like it matters.
We start with your property and your goals. You tell us how you want to use the space, and we design a pool that fits your lot, your budget, and your lifestyle. Whether you want a simple rectangle for lap swimming or a complete backyard poolscape with waterfalls and an outdoor kitchen, we map it out before any digging starts.
Then we handle permits. Nassau and Suffolk County have strict pool codes—surveys, architectural drawings, setback requirements. We manage that process so you don’t spend weeks at town hall trying to figure out compliance.
Once permits clear, excavation begins. We assess your soil conditions and drainage needs, install proper dewatering systems if necessary, and build the pool shell to handle Long Island’s ground conditions. Plumbing, electrical, coping, tile work, decking—our crews handle every phase. Most custom in-ground pool projects take 6-8 weeks from excavation to completion, depending on design complexity and weather. You get updates throughout, and we don’t leave until final inspection passes and you’re ready to fill it.
Ready to get started?
You get complete design services, all necessary permits, professional excavation, plumbing and electrical installation, and final landscaping. We’re not a company that builds the pool and disappears—we handle the entire transformation, including pool patio masonry in Suffolk County and Nassau County, custom pool coping and tile work, concrete pool surrounds, retaining walls, grading, and complete backyard poolscapes.
Long Beach properties often need additional site work because of coastal conditions. High water tables require dewatering systems. Drainage issues need proper solutions before the pool goes in. We assess these factors during the design phase, so you know what’s required and what it costs before construction starts.
We also offer gunite, vinyl, and fiberglass pool installation depending on what makes sense for your property and budget. Gunite gives you the most design flexibility. Vinyl costs less upfront. Fiberglass installs faster. We’ll explain the differences and let you decide what fits your priorities. And because we’ve been doing masonry work across Long Island for years, the hardscape integration—pavers, patios, walkways—gets done right the first time.
The average cost to build an in-ground pool in 2026 is $65,000, but your actual price depends on size, design complexity, site conditions, and what you include in the project. A basic rectangular gunite pool with standard coping and concrete decking costs less than a freeform design with custom tile, a spa, and a full outdoor kitchen.
Long Island properties can add costs if you’re dealing with rocky soil, high water tables, or drainage issues that require additional site work. We assess those factors during the design phase and give you a detailed estimate that includes everything—permits, excavation, construction, finishing work, and landscaping.
We won’t be the cheapest estimate you get, and that’s intentional. You’re paying for crews who know how to handle Nassau and Suffolk County ground conditions, who pull permits correctly the first time, and who build pools that don’t crack or settle three years later. Most professionally built pools last decades. Most DIY or budget installs need major repairs within 2-3 years. That’s not a coincidence.
Most custom in-ground pool projects take 6-8 weeks from excavation to completion, but that timeline depends on design complexity, weather, and how quickly permits get approved. A simple rectangular pool with minimal site work can be done faster. A resort-style poolscape with waterfalls, custom masonry, and extensive landscaping takes longer.
The permit process in Nassau and Suffolk County adds time before construction even starts. Some towns require surveys, architectural drawings, and multiple inspections. We handle that process, but it’s not something you can rush. Spring is the best season for pool installation, and contractors book up fast during that window. If you’re planning for next summer, fall and winter are ideal for design work and permits so construction can start as soon as weather allows.
We give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated throughout the project. If weather delays excavation or an inspection gets rescheduled, you’ll know immediately. No guessing where things stand.
Yes. Long Island towns have some of the strictest pool codes in the country, and Long Beach is no exception. You’ll need surveys, architectural drawings, setback compliance, and approval from the building department before any digging happens. Permit fees vary by town, and the process can take several weeks depending on how backed up the local building department is.
We handle the entire permit process for you. That includes preparing the required drawings, submitting applications, coordinating inspections, and making sure everything meets Nassau County or Suffolk County code requirements. If something gets flagged during review, we address it and resubmit.
Skipping permits or trying to build without approval creates major problems when you sell your property or file an insurance claim. Buyers won’t close if the pool isn’t permitted. Insurance won’t cover damage if the installation wasn’t legal. It’s not worth the risk, and it’s not something you want to navigate yourself.
It depends on your budget, timeline, and how much design flexibility you want. Gunite pools offer the most customization—any shape, any depth, any feature you can imagine. They’re the most durable option and handle Long Island’s freeze-thaw cycles better than other materials. They also cost more and take longer to install.
Vinyl pools cost less upfront and install faster, but the liner needs replacement every 7-10 years. Fiberglass pools are the quickest to install and require less maintenance, but you’re limited to pre-manufactured shapes and sizes.
For Long Beach properties dealing with sandy soil or high water tables, gunite is usually the best long-term choice. It’s more forgiving when ground conditions shift, and it holds up better in coastal climates. We’ll walk through the pros and cons of each option based on your specific property and let you decide what makes sense.
Yes. Professional pool installation increases home value by 8-15% according to the National Association of Realtors, and most realtors agree that homes with pools sell faster than homes without them in Nassau and Suffolk County markets. The median listing price in Nassau County is $849,000, up 10.4% year-over-year, and a well-designed pool adds significant appeal in that price range.
But not all pools add the same value. A professionally installed in-ground pool with quality materials, proper permits, and integrated landscaping is an asset. A budget install with drainage problems, cracked decking, or missing permits becomes a liability that scares off buyers.
The return also depends on how well the pool fits your property. An oversized pool that takes up the entire yard won’t appeal to buyers with kids who need play space. A tiny pool in a large backyard looks like an afterthought. We design pools that make sense for your lot size and neighborhood so the investment pays off whether you stay for 20 years or sell in five.
Look for a contractor who’s been working in Nassau and Suffolk County long enough to understand local ground conditions, permit requirements, and building codes. Long Island soil is tricky—sandy areas shift, clay doesn’t drain, and water tables fluctuate. A contractor from out of the area will learn those lessons on your property, and you’ll pay for the mistakes.
Ask if they handle permits or if you’re responsible for navigating town requirements. Ask if they use subcontractors or manage the entire project with their own crews. Ask for references from recent projects in your area, and actually call them. Check their BBB rating and online reviews, but also trust your gut during the consultation. If communication is confusing or vague before you sign, it won’t improve once construction starts.
We’ve been serving Long Beach and the surrounding area since 2006. We’re licensed, insured, and bonded. Every job is managed by an owner, and we’ve earned an A+ BBB rating and multiple Angies List awards by showing up, communicating clearly, and building pools that last. We offer free estimates and guarantee we won’t be undersold—but more importantly, we’ll tell you exactly what your project requires and what it costs before you commit.
