OUR PROCESS
3D CONCEPTUAL DESIGNS
3D CONCEPTUAL DESIGNS enable clients to visualize and have a sense of scale for the final project at any angle of their home. We also incorporate elements of detail including furniture and lighting placement for the final touches that are always important.
We provide you, the architect or the contractor with the proper equipment specifications as well as engineered plans for the local building inspector. We can also apply for HDC approval and building permits if needed. We offer the best value and warranty that Nantucket has to offer, but we don’t stop there — we give our clients a comprehensive outline of our work schedule
OUR PROCESS | STEP BY STEP
1. Meetings
Meetings to get a feel for the client’s vision. Mock-ups & drafting of plans for client approval.
2. Detailed Plans
Detailed plans for Historic District Commission approval & building permits.
3. Site Work
Site work: area is cleared and stripped of any organic material. String lines are laid out to mark finish elevations & dimensions.
4. Pool forming
Pool forming: 2×4 stakes and 2×6′s are used to create rigid forms.
5. Excavation
Pool excavation & gravel subgrade: 6′′ of 3/4 gravel is spread to provide a firm footing for the concrete shell of your pool.
6. Rebar
Rebar: #4 Rebar (1/2′′) is bent and tied together to create the “skeleton”, typically a 1×1′ grid of steel.
7. Plumbing & Lights
This includes main drains, skimmers, returns, jets, vacuum lines, water features, auto-fills. Low voltage electrical.
8. Inspection
Inspection: Steel frame of pool is bonded and inspected to ensure code.
9. Shotcrete
Shotcrete: Our mix design has admixtures and high levels of cement to bring the pool shell strength up to 6000 PSI
10. Auto Cover
Auto cover (optional): Auto cover pit is constructed and tracks are installed. Switch is controlled via Key for safety.
11. Equipment Pad
Equipment pad: plumbing/lighting is run from pool to 6′ x 8′ single course 6×6′′ timbers with gravel base. We install individual valves and unions for easy disconnect & service of equipment. We recommend Pentair products for filters, pumps, chlorinators & automation.
12. Tile
Tile: 6′′ water line tile. Decorative tile on pool floor and negative edges.
13. Plaster
Plaster: we use pebble plasters with many different colors, aggregates, and styles to choose from.
