Our Construction Standards

Professional Pool Company — Built Right from Day One

At Professional Pool Company, construction quality is not a marketing slogan — it’s a documented, engineering-driven system that guides every phase of your pool build. Our standards exceed typical Florida requirements and are designed to ensure durability, safety, and long-term performance in Central Florida’s soil and climate conditions.

This article outlines the core construction standards we follow on every project.


1. Engineered Structural Shell Standards

Every pool we build is fully engineered for:

  • Reinforced #3 or #4 rebar steel grid
  • Structural bond beam support
  • Correctly spaced steel reinforcement
  • High-strength concrete mix
  • Optimized wall and floor thicknesses
  • Soil and groundwater conditions

We never use generic, non-engineered drawings. Each project receives a certified set of pool plans specific to the homeowner’s property.


2. Precision Excavation & Layout

Our excavation standards include:

  • Laser-verified depths
  • Exact layout to engineered dimensions
  • Soil stabilization if needed
  • Oversight to avoid shell voids or weak points
  • Clean, compacted dig zones

Accurate excavation is the foundation of a long-lasting pool, and our crews follow strict layout guidelines on every dig.


3. Steel Reinforcement Standards

We use a structural steel cage designed to:

  • Support long-term shell integrity
  • Prevent cracks from soil movement
  • Meet (and often exceed) local building codes
  • Achieve proper spacing and tie pattern
  • Integrate with electrical bonding for safety

Our steel cages are built to engineering specs — not “contractor preference.”


4. Plumbing & Equipment Installation Standards

We install all plumbing and equipment according to:

  • Hydraulic efficiency principles
  • Correct pipe sizing
  • Clean, sweep elbows
  • Proper equipment pad layout
  • Pressure-tested plumbing
  • Bonded and grounded systems

This ensures strong circulation, lower energy use, and long-term reliability.


5. Shotcrete / Gunite Application Standards

Professional Pool Company uses high-strength gunite with:

  • Verified PSI grading
  • Certified application crew
  • Correct rebound removal
  • Beam compaction
  • Smooth structural transitions
  • Thickness adherence to engineered plans

The shell is the backbone of your pool — and we treat it with engineering-level precision.


6. Electrical, Safety & Bonding Requirements

Safety is a core part of our standards:

  • Full equipment bonding
  • Code-compliant grounding
  • GFCI protection
  • Correct conduit installation
  • Barrier, screen, gate, and door alarm compliance

Every pool is constructed according to the Florida Building Code and local city/county guidelines.


7. Decking, Tile & Finish Standards

We ensure:

  • Proper slope for drainage
  • High-quality expansion joints
  • Durable coping installation
  • Tile bonding with premium materials
  • Strict finish application timing

Your pool’s final appearance is only as good as the craftsmanship behind it — ours is consistent, clean, and detail-oriented.


8. Equipment Standards & Technology

We use premium equipment brands built for reliability, such as:

  • High-efficiency pumps
  • Oversized cartridge filters
  • Salt systems
  • Automation systems
  • LED lighting
  • High-performance heaters

Every equipment pad is installed according to manufacturer specifications for warranty compliance.


9. Quality Control at Every Phase

Your pool undergoes a multi-stage inspection system:

  • Pre-dig review
  • Steel inspection
  • Plumbing pressure test
  • Shotcrete verification
  • Tile/coping inspection
  • Deck inspection
  • Final equipment & lighting test

Nothing moves to the next phase unless it meets our internal quality requirements.


Our Standard: A Pool Built to Last Decades

Professional Pool Company is committed to delivering a pool that is:

  • Structurally sound
  • Hydraulically efficient
  • Safe and code-compliant
  • Built with premium materials
  • Engineered for Florida conditions

We don’t cut corners. Ever.
