Inground Pool Construction Phases: Steps in the Swimming Pool Building Process and Pool Construction
What to Expect During Your Gunite Pool's Construction
At Anthem Pools, we guide you through each step of the pool building process to make your dream pool a reality. From the initial design to the first splash, here’s what you can expect during the 8 phases of gunite pool construction.
The Pool Building Process: From Design to Installation
Breaking Ground: Initial Construction Steps
Phase 2: Excavation
Once the design is set, we break ground—literally! The excavation process shapes the foundation of your new pool, as we dig into the earth and outline where your pool’s form will take place. This step is crucial because it directly impacts the following phases of swimming pool construction, ensuring that everything lines up perfectly for a seamless building experience.
Phase 3: Steel & Plumbing
After excavation, we reinforce the structure with a steel rebar frame. This gives the pool its shape and strength. At the same time, we install the plumbing system, ensuring water will flow efficiently through the pool. These two components are crucial for the long-term durability of your pool, setting the stage for the next step in the swimming pool building process.
Phase 5: Tile & Coping
Now, it’s time for the finishing touches. We install the tiles that line the water’s edge and apply coping around the pool’s perimeter. The tiles and coping not only add beauty but also provide functional benefits like protecting the edges and giving you a safe surface to walk on. You can choose from a wide range of materials, from natural stone to sleek, modern tiles, to match your style.
Phase 6: Electrical
Next up, we bring power to your pool. This phase includes wiring for lights, pumps, and any other electrical equipment your pool needs. Whether you’re adding underwater lights for night swims or heating elements for year-round use, our team ensures everything is safely installed and up to code.
Phase 8: Pool Startup
Finally, it’s time to fill your pool with water and fire up the equipment! We’ll walk you through the startup process, making sure everything from the pumps to the chemical levels are balanced. After a quick rundown on pool maintenance, you’ll be ready to dive in and enjoy your new custom gunite pool.

Timing & Location
Building Your Pool's Outdoor Oasis
When it comes to timing and location for your swimming pool project, getting it just right is crucial for Anthem Pools to create your dream outdoor oasis. To kick-start the construction process, timing plays a huge role. You'll want to plan around both your availability and the seasons. Typically, the best time to begin your pool construction is during the off-peak seasons, which means milder weather and less demand for pool building services. Keep in mind, the average construction period for a pool can vary between 8 to 12 weeks, depending on the complexity of the project and unforeseen circumstances, like weather delays.
Location is another key factor when you're ready to break ground. Select a spot in your home's backyard that maximizes the sun exposure, as it will keep your pool warmer and trimming down energy costs. Be sure to consider the views around your home's pool—whether you want more privacy or a scenic outlook, the location impacts the overall ambiance. Remember, a well-chosen site is a foundation for better pool enjoyment and a superior swimming experience.

The harmonious blend of timing, location, and top-notch service ensures a seamless construction phase. Our promise of superior craftsmanship means your swimming pool's outdoor spirit is in great hands. Be prepared for interruptions since the time of construction stage involves heavy machinery, but remember, each day’s progress gets you one step closer to your dream pool.
