We also send representatives to the site prior to your arrival that will survey the property and insure our ability to install a pool on the property so that our installers are not wasting time and resources scheduling an install on a property with a customer where it's just not possible to install a pool. We don't build decks, do any landscaping or back fill, and we leave the dirt on the site in a nice neat pile for our customer to manage after we leave. Furthermore, we provide all of the work. Our job is to provide the work (20-30 installs per month), your job is to go and do the work.
