Master Formation Pools and Spas - Finishing
Construction Clean-up: This is the phase that begins to get the yard back in shape -- hauling off construction debris, grading dirt, filling in ruts. We have a cleanup crew that is dedicated to making sure your yard is left the way we found it (with the exception of your beautiful new pool).
Interior Pool Finish: The final stage of pool construction is the interior finish, of which there are many good choices. The traditional choice is simple pool plaster, either white or with just a hint of blue, which results in an inviting, sparkly-blue appearance we all know so well.
Instead of the popular plaster look, there are a number of new finishes that can add a very distinctive look to your design. Among the most popular of these newer styles is the pebble finish, which creates a more natural sandy-bottom look. Like plaster, pebble finishes also come in a wide variety of colors and are darker in tint than most plasters and so will aid in warming the pool as swimming season approaches. While these newer finishes cost a bit more, the look and durability they add is often well worth the cost. A pebble finish is a more complex process, so you will want an experienced crew to get the job done right.
As soon as your interior finish is completed, the contractor will start filling your pool with water hoses. It is the pool owner's responsibility to turn off the water when the pool is filled. The water level should be in the center of the skimmer's intake.
Final Inspection: Be sure your pool contractor gets the pool permits prior to the beginning of construction. Permits must be posted in plain view during the entire construction process. The inspector will be checking the phases of construction completed up to that point as well as the posted permits. If pool fencing and door alarms, self-closing and latching gates, window safety locks and window alarms, are required in your area there will be stiff fines to pay to the inspectors if they are not in place by the time of final inspection. Often times, the missing permits are the cause of holding up the final inspection. This can be a frustrating thing when there is a nearly finished pool beckoning.
