Our Process
Welcome to our 5 Step Project Process
Making sure your project is Designed Right, Built Right, On-time, and On Budget
Guaranteed.
Step 1
Site analysis
At D2Pools, we prioritize precision and thorough planning in every project, starting with a comprehensive Site Analysis. This critical first step ensures your project is designed and built to the highest standards.
Before meeting with a designer, we schedule a Site Analysis to gather detailed information about your property. You don’t need to be home for this step—just ensure the property is accessible and pets are secured. During this visit, our expert will measure every detail of your outdoor space, including elevations, utility locations, drainage, windows, doors, and other existing features. Depending on the property size and complexity, this process can take from an hour to two days.
Back at the office, our team creates a CAD map of your property, which serves as a valuable tool for your current project and any future outdoor enhancements.
This meticulous approach helps avoid unexpected issues, budget overruns, and delays. By investing in a thorough Site Analysis, we ensure your project will be Designed Right, Built Right, On Time, and On Budget.
Step 2
Initial Consultation
At D2Pools, we transform your vision into reality through a collaborative design process. After completing the Site Analysis, we invite you to meet with one of our expert designers at our office. During this meeting, your designer will guide you in expressing your creative ideas while aligning them with your budget and timeline.
Our designers are dedicated to ensuring you receive a pool design that reflects your desires, stays within your financial plan, and can be delivered as promised. By overlaying hand-drawn concepts onto the Site Analysis, you’ll witness your vision taking shape. This approach allows for adjustments based on projected costs, providing confidence that your project will be stress-free and tailored to your expectations.
By engaging in this detailed design process, we ensure that your pool is not only aesthetically pleasing but also functional and feasible, resulting in a final product that brings your dream to life.
Step 3
Conceptual Meeting
At D2Pools, we prioritize bringing your vision to life through a collaborative and detailed design process. After our initial Site Analysis, we invite you to our office to meet with one of our expert designers. During this meeting, you’ll review a detailed CAD representation of your project, transformed from initial hand sketches. This visual allows you to see your envisioned pool design in full color and detail.
Material Selection and Design Refinement
In this session, you’ll have the opportunity to select materials that align with your aesthetic preferences and budget. Our designer will guide you through various options, ensuring each choice contributes to the overall beauty and functionality of your pool. We understand that material selection is crucial for both durability and aesthetics. For instance, choosing the right pool coping and tiles can significantly enhance your pool’s appearance and longevity.
Budget Alignment and Timeline Planning
Our designer will provide real-time cost adjustments based on your selections and any design modifications. This transparency ensures the project remains within your budget. We’ll also discuss the construction timeline, setting clear expectations for project milestones and completion.
Ensuring Your Satisfaction
We are committed to delivering a design that meets your expectations. If necessary, multiple conceptual meetings can be arranged to refine the design until it perfectly aligns with your vision. Our goal is to provide a five-star experience, ensuring your dream pool becomes a reality without stress or compromise.
By engaging in this comprehensive design process, D2Pools ensures that every aspect of your pool project is meticulously planned and tailored to your needs, resulting in a final product that brings your outdoor living dreams to life.
Step 4
Final Meeting
At D2Pools, we are committed to transforming your vision into reality with precision and clarity. In our final design meeting, we present lifelike 3D renderings of your project, allowing you to visualize your future outdoor space in stunning detail. This immersive experience enables you to see yourself enjoying your perfect pool environment even before construction begins.
Final Review and Adjustments
During this session, we will:
Review the Design: Examine the 3D renderings to ensure every aspect aligns with your expectations.
Select Materials: Confirm material choices that complement the design and meet your preferences.
Discuss Revisions: Address any changes or enhancements you’d like to make, ensuring the design is tailored to your family’s needs.
Comprehensive Estimate and Timeline
We provide a detailed, official estimate and a clear construction timeline, offering you confidence as we move forward. Our commitment is to deliver your project on time and within budget, ensuring a seamless and satisfying experience.
Step 5
Construction
At D2Pools, we are excited to transition your project from design to construction. With your finalized working drawings, your designer will meet with your dedicated job coordinator at your property to review all project details and ensure alignment with your vision.
Seamless Handoff to Your Job Coordinator
Your job coordinator will become your primary point of contact throughout the construction phase. They will oversee the construction process, coordinate with our skilled crew, and ensure that every aspect of the build aligns with the agreed-upon plan.
Active Collaboration and Communication
We value your ongoing input during construction. Your feedback is essential to ensure the final outcome reflects your vision. Our friendly and efficient crews work diligently to complete your project on time and within budget, delivering a seamless and satisfying experience.
