Professional Pool Installation That Exceeds Expectations
Installing a new in-ground pool is one of the most significant investments you’ll make in your home, and choosing the right pool builder is crucial to ensuring that investment delivers decades of enjoyment. At Signature Pool & Spas, we’ve been designing and installing custom pools throughout Rhode Island for over 25 years, earning our reputation through quality craftsmanship, honest communication, and exceptional results that stand the test of time.
Every successful pool installation begins with understanding your unique vision and requirements. How will your family use the pool? What aesthetic appeals to you? How does the pool need to integrate with your existing landscape and outdoor spaces? What’s your budget and timeline? These aren’t just casual questions—they’re the foundation of a design and installation process that’s tailored specifically to your needs.
We specialize in two proven pool types: vinyl liner and fiberglass. Both options offer outstanding performance and beauty, but each has distinct characteristics that may make one better suited to your property, preferences, and budget. Our team will walk you through the advantages of each option, help you evaluate them objectively, and ensure you make an informed decision you’ll feel confident about for years to come.
From the initial consultation through final completion, we manage every aspect of your pool installation with meticulous attention to detail. Our experienced crews handle excavation, structural installation, plumbing, electrical systems, equipment setup, and surrounding hardscaping with the professionalism that comes from decades of experience. We maintain clear communication throughout the project, keep your property organized and safe, and don’t consider the job complete until you’re absolutely satisfied with every detail.
Your Pool Installation Journey: What to Expect
Understanding the pool installation process helps you feel confident and prepared as your backyard transformation unfolds. Here’s what you can expect when you choose Signature Pool & Spas for your new pool installation.
1. Design Consultation & Planning
We begin with an in-depth consultation at your property where we discuss your vision, assess your yard’s characteristics, and explore design possibilities. For vinyl liner pools, we’ll create custom CAD drawings that show exact dimensions and features. For fiberglass pools, we’ll present options from our trusted manufacturers that match your preferences. We’ll discuss placement, depth, features like steps or benches, and additional elements such as heating, lighting, or automation. This collaborative process continues until the design is exactly what you want.
2. Permits & Site Preparation
Once you approve the design, we handle all necessary permits and ensure compliance with local building codes and regulations. This includes setback requirements, fencing regulations, and any other municipal requirements. We coordinate with utility companies to identify and mark underground lines, protecting your property’s infrastructure and ensuring safe excavation.
3. Excavation & Construction
Professional excavation is where your pool begins taking physical shape. Our crews carefully excavate to the specified dimensions and depths, managing soil removal and site grading. For vinyl liner pools, we construct the pool walls and floor base, install plumbing and electrical conduits, and prepare for the liner installation. For fiberglass pools, we prepare a precise excavation, create a stable base, and expertly position the shell using specialized equipment. All plumbing, filtration, and electrical systems are installed according to manufacturer specifications and local codes.
4. Finishing Touches
With the pool structure complete, we turn our attention to the details that make your pool beautiful and functional. This includes coping installation, decking or patio work around the pool perimeter, equipment setup and testing, and final grading and cleanup. We can coordinate decorative concrete installation through our parent company, Northeast Stonecrete, Inc., to create stunning pool decks that complement your new pool perfectly.
5. Startup & Education
Before you take your first swim, we conduct thorough water testing and chemical balancing, demonstrate all equipment operation, and provide comprehensive instruction on basic maintenance procedures. We want you to feel completely comfortable caring for your new pool, and we’re always available to answer questions or provide guidance as you become familiar with pool ownership.
Vinyl Liner or Fiberglass? We'll Help You Decide
The choice between vinyl liner and fiberglass pools depends on several factors including your design preferences, budget, timeline, and long-term maintenance considerations.
During your consultation, we’ll discuss both options in detail, considering your specific situation to help you make the best choice for your family.
Customize Your Pool with Premium Features
Your new pool can incorporate a wide range of features that enhance enjoyment, extend your swimming season, and create the exact backyard experience you’re envisioning. Pool heating systems from AquaCal allow you to enjoy comfortable water temperatures throughout more of the year. LED lighting transforms your pool into a stunning nighttime focal point while providing safety and ambiance. Waterfalls, fountains, and other water features add visual interest and soothing sounds. Automation systems let you control temperature, filtration, lighting, and more from your smartphone or tablet.
Safety features are equally important. We install pool fencing that meets all safety regulations while complementing your landscape design, and we offer premium safety covers from LoopLoc and Merlin that provide protection when the pool isn’t in use. Other popular additions include automatic pool cleaners that maintain cleanliness with minimal effort, salt systems that provide softer water with less chemical handling, and integrated spas or hot tub areas that create complete backyard wellness retreats.
Our design team will help you prioritize features based on your budget and preferences, ensuring your new pool includes the elements that matter most to your family.
