Excavation
We stake the pool to the survey and cut the contour to ±20 mm. The hole is shaped, not merely dug — every batter and bench set out before a single bar of steel arrives.
A custom pool is the work of a single season. Seven disciplined steps — from the first stake in the ground to the moment the surface finally goes still — each finished before the next begins.
Walk the timelineNo stage is rushed to reach the next. The order is the guarantee.
Groundwork
We stake the pool to the survey and cut the contour to ±20 mm. The hole is shaped, not merely dug — every batter and bench set out before a single bar of steel arrives.
Before anything is poured, the perimeter weep system and main drain go in. Ground water is given somewhere to go, so it never works against the finished shell.
Structure
A double mat of Ø 16 mm rebar is tied on a 15 cm grid and lifted clear of the base. The cage is inspected and photographed before it ever disappears into concrete.
Supply, return and main-drain lines are routed and pressure-tested while the shell is still open. Nothing is buried until it has held pressure.
The shell is sprayed as monolithic shotcrete in a single continuous working day — no cold joints, no seams. One pour, one structure.
Finishing
Travertine is clad from coping to floor and the waterline is honed by hand. This is the slow part — where tolerances drop to millimetres and the eye takes over from the machine.
The slot skimmer is balanced, the lighting tuned to 2700K, and the water mineralized. The pool is run, watched and adjusted until the surface finally goes still.
