Yesterday we broke ground on a gorgeous outdoor swimming pool for the Miller family on Crescent Avenue, right across from that park where they have the huge Easter egg hunt every year. Mr. Miller told us he’s been dreaming about this outdoor swimming pool since moving to Anaheim 12 years ago – kept saying “why live in Southern California if you can’t swim in your own backyard?” We’ve been building outdoor swimming pools in Anaheim since 1997, and honestly, he’s got a point.
Every outdoor swimming pool in Anaheim starts with understanding your yard’s unique challenges. That house on Wagner Street where we built a pool last month? The backyard sloped eight feet from the house to the back fence. Most contractors said it couldn’t be done. We built a beautiful outdoor swimming pool with an infinity edge that makes it look like the water flows right into the sky.
Designing an outdoor swimming pool means thinking about more than just the water. Where does the sun hit your yard at 3 PM in July when everyone wants to swim? How close are your neighbors’ windows? (Nobody wants to be that house with the loud pool parties every weekend.) The Rodriguez family near Boysen Park wanted there outdoor swimming pool close to the house for easy supervision of kids, but far enough away that splashing wouldn’t hit the outdoor kitchen we were also installing.
Building an outdoor pool in Anaheim isn’t like those HGTV shows where everything happens in a weekend. Real outdoor pool construction takes 8-12 weeks if you want it done right. We just finished an outdoor swimming pool on State College that took exactly 10 weeks from breaking ground to the first swim. The homeowner said other contractors promised 6 weeks but then mentioned “possible delays” in the fine print.
Here’s what really happens during outdoor pool construction: First week is excavation (your yard will look like a disaster zone). Week two is plumbing and steel. Week three is electrical work and inspections. Week four is gunite – that’s when it actually starts looking like a pool. Then there’s tile, coping, decking, plaster, and equipment installation. We’ve built over 1,400 outdoor swimming pools in Orange County, and rushing any of these steps means problems later.
Not every outdoor swimming pool needs to be a traditional inground pool, but let’s be real – in Anaheim, that’s what most people want. Inground swimming pools become part of your property, increase home value, and last for decades when built properly. That above-ground pool your neighbor has that they take down every winter? That’s not what we’re talking about.
Inground outdoor swimming pools can be customized however you want. The Kim family on Euclid wanted a lap pool for exercise – we built them a 50-foot long, 10-foot wide pool perfect for swimming laps. The Johnsons near the Anaheim Convention Center wanted something for entertaining – they got a huge freeform pool with multiple depths, a swim-up bar, and room for 30 people. Your outdoor swimming pool should match how you actually live.
Our outdoor swimming pool installation services cover everything from initial design to that first cannonball. We handle permits (Anaheim’s permit office knows us by name after 25 years), utility marking (you’d be amazed what’s buried in Anaheim backyards), excavation, construction, and all finishing work. The Peterson family on Harbor Boulevard didn’t have to do anything except pick colors and write checks.
Outdoor pool installation also includes things people forget about. Where does the equipment go? (HOAs in Anaheim Hills have strict rules about visible pool equipment.) How do you access the backyard with huge machinery? (We removed a fence section for the Murphy’s pool on Tustin Avenue.) What about that gorgeous oak tree you want to keep? We work around existing landscaping whenever possible – that outdoor swimming pool we built on Fairmont has a beautiful palm tree growing right through the deck.
Your outdoor swimming pool should be more than just a hole with water. The Thompson family near Angel Stadium wanted there pool to be the ultimate entertainment space. We added a beach entry where little kids can play safely, a deep end with a diving rock (not a boring diving board), LED lights that change colors, and a massive spa that overlooks the whole pool.
Modern outdoor swimming pool features are incredible. Tanning ledges where you can lay in shallow water, underwater speakers for music, automatic covers that open with a key fob, and saltwater systems that eliminate red eyes and chlorine smell. We just installed a outdoor swimming pool on Katella with jets that create a current for swimming in place – the owner is training for triathlons without leaving his backyard.
An outdoor swimming pool without proper landscaping looks like a hole in your yard. We work with the best landscape designers in Anaheim to create complete backyard experiences. That stunning outdoor pool we built near Pearson Park has tropical landscaping that makes you feel like you’re in Hawaii, not half a mile from the 57 freeway.
Landscaping around outdoor swimming pools needs to be pool-friendly. Those beautiful jacaranda trees drop purple flowers that clog filters. Pine trees drop needles constantly. Palm trees are great until the fronds fall in your pool during Santa Ana winds. We help you choose plants that look amazing but won’t turn pool maintenance into a nightmare. The Garcia family on Lincoln chose drought-tolerant plants that need minimal water and never drop leaves.
Your outdoor swimming pool deck is where people actually spend most of there time. Nobody sits in the pool for three hours – they swim, then relax on the deck. We see too many Anaheim pools with tiny concrete strips around them that burn your feet and have nowhere to put furniture. That’s not a deck, that’s a sidewalk.
Proper outdoor pool decking needs space for loungers, tables, maybe a fire pit area. The Wilson family on Dale Street chose stamped concrete that looks like natural stone but costs half as much. The Nguyens in West Anaheim went with travertine that stays cool even when its 105 degrees. We’ve even done wood decking (special treated wood that handles water) for that resort feel. Your outdoor swimming pool deck should be as nice as the pool itself.
Every outdoor swimming pool in Anaheim needs proper safety barriers – it’s the law, and it’s common sense. The city requires fences at least 5 feet high with self-closing, self-latching gates. But safety goes beyond meeting code. The Anderson family on Vermont has three kids under 6, so we installed additional door alarms, a safety cover, and a camera system.
Modern outdoor swimming pool safety options don’t make your yard look like a prison. Glass fencing keeps views open while providing protection. Removable mesh fencing can come down for parties. Automatic covers support an elephant (not that you’d have one, but you get the point). We just installed a outdoor pool near Disneyland with every safety feature available – the grandmother with memory issues lives there, and the family wanted zero risks.
“But it’s Southern California, why do I need heating?” Every single outdoor swimming pool owner asks this until they try swimming in January when the water’s 55 degrees. Even in Anaheim, pools get cold from November through March without heating. The Chen family on Ball Road uses there heated pool year-round for there son’s swimming therapy.
Modern pool heating options for outdoor swimming pools are way better than those old gas heaters that cost $500 a month to run. Solar heating works great in Anaheim (we get 280 sunny days a year). Heat pumps are super efficient for maintaining temperature. We even install combination systems – solar for maintaining temperature, gas for quick heating when you decide to swim tonight. That outdoor pool we built on Meats Avenue has solar panels on the roof you can’t even see from the ground.
Your outdoor swimming pool equipment determines whether you spend weekends swimming or weekends cleaning. Old single-speed pumps run constantly, waste electricity, and sound like airports. Modern variable-speed pumps adjust automatically, run silently, and cut energy bills by 70%. The Robinson family near Olive High School saved $2,400 last year just from there new pump.
Smart pool technology for outdoor swimming pools is amazing now. Control everything from your phone – heating, lights, waterfalls, even chemical balance. We installed a system on Sunkist Street that texts the owner if anything needs attention. Robotic cleaners handle daily cleaning automatically. Salt systems generate chlorine from regular salt, eliminating trips to the pool store. Your outdoor swimming pool should basically run itself.
Here’s what pool builders won’t tell you about outdoor swimming pool maintenance in Anaheim – our weather creates unique challenges. Those Santa Ana winds in October fill pools with dust and debris. June gloom means less sun for solar heating. The hard water from our municipal supply causes calcium buildup on tiles.
We design outdoor swimming pools to minimize maintenance headaches. Proper placement away from trees, correct water circulation patterns, and the right equipment make huge differences. The Martinez family on Magnolia hasn’t cleaned there pool manually in two years – between the automatic cleaner, proper filtration, and good design, it maintains itself. We also offer maintenance services because we know exactly how to care for pools we build.
Building an outdoor swimming pool in Anaheim requires more permits than you’d think. Building permit, electrical permit, plumbing permit, sometimes grading permits. The city wants engineered plans showing exactly how the pool will be built. If you’re in an HOA (half of Anaheim Hills), they have there own requirements. We handle all of this because we’ve done it hundreds of times.
New regulations for outdoor swimming pools focus on safety and water conservation. Pools need dual main drains for safety. Equipment must meet energy efficiency standards. Some neighborhoods restrict when you can fill your pool due to water restrictions. We just built a outdoor pool on Kraemer that recycles backwash water for irrigation – the inspector loved it so much he took pictures for other contractors.
Let’s discuss real costs for outdoor swimming pools in Anaheim. Basic pools start around $45,000 – that gets you a simple shape, standard equipment, and basic decking. Most families spend $65,000-85,000 for a nice outdoor swimming pool with good features and decent decking. High-end pools with infinity edges, spas, and extensive hardscaping run $100,000-200,000.
But here’s what affects cost beyond size: Access to your backyard (can equipment fit through the gate or do we need a crane?), soil conditions (clay needs more reinforcement than sand), slope of the yard, and distance to electrical panels. That outdoor swimming pool we built on Imperial Highway cost extra because we had to pump concrete from the street – no truck access to the backyard.
Building an outdoor swimming pool in Anaheim has ideal timing. Starting in September means swimming by Christmas. Starting in January means swimming by Memorial Day. We avoid starting construction during the rainy season (yes, it occasionally rains here) because excavations become muddy messes.
Smart families plan there outdoor swimming pool projects early. We’re usually booked by February for the entire summer. The Thompson family on Walnut Street called us in November for a May start – perfect timing. They were swimming by July 4th while there neighbors were still calling contractors. If you want a outdoor pool for next summer, start planning this winter.
We’ve been building outdoor swimming pools in Anaheim long enough to know every neighborhood’s quirks. West Anaheim has high water tables that affect construction. Anaheim Hills has strict HOA requirements and slope challenges. The Platinum Triangle has underground parking structures we need to avoid. Houses near the Santa Ana River need extra drainage consideration.
This local knowledge saves money and prevents problems. We know which city inspectors are strict about setbacks, which neighborhoods have unmarked utility lines from old orange grove irrigation, and exactly how deep we can dig before hitting issues. That outdoor swimming pool we built on Crescent? Another contractor hit an old septic tank nobody knew about – we knew to check because half that neighborhood has them.
Building an outdoor swimming pool is one of the biggest investments you’ll make in your home. You want someone who shows up when promised, stays on budget, and builds something that lasts decades. We’ve built outdoor swimming pools for three generations of some Anaheim families – grandparents, parents, now there kids.
The Lewis family on Brookhurst hired us after there first contractor disappeared with a deposit. The Parks near Loara High School chose us because we actually answered questions instead of just saying “trust us.” We’re still maintaining outdoor pools we built in the 1990s because we build them right the first time. Your not just getting a pool – your getting 25 years of experience in Anaheim backyards.
