At Bison Construction, we know that building a pool isn’t just about digging a hole and filling it with water—it’s about creating an outdoor experience that fits your family’s lifestyle. That’s why we’ve designed a clear, step-by-step process to guide you from your first call to your first cannonball.
Step 1: Initial Consultation
Your journey begins with a call or online inquiry. We’ll schedule a time to visit your property, learn about your vision, and evaluate the layout of your space. This is where we listen and get a sense of your lifestyle—kids, pets, entertainment goals, or simply a place to relax.
Step 2: On-Site Visit & Concept Planning
We walk your property with you, discuss ideas, review zoning and access, and start shaping the possibilities. From there, our team begins building a design concept tailored to your space, terrain, and aesthetic goals.
Step 3: In-House 2D & 3D Design Renderings
This is where your vision comes to life. We use professional in-house software to create both 2D layouts and fully interactive 3D designs. You’ll be able to see your pool, deck, hardscape, and landscaping in realistic renderings—before we break ground. This helps us fine-tune every detail, from the pool shape to materials and finishes.
Step 4: Proposal & Project Timeline
Once the design is dialed in, we work with you to align the project with your desires, wants, and budget. From there, we present a detailed proposal that includes scope of work and a projected timeline. We walk you through every phase so you know what to expect.
Step 5: Permitting Support & Scheduling
We assist you with the permitting process by providing all required submittal documents—including detailed drawings, plans, and specifications. Once permits are secured, your project is placed into our active schedule, and you’ll be kept in the loop on timelines.
Step 6: Construction Begins
From excavation to plumbing runs and steel framing—we manage every aspect of the build up to the equipment pad. Our experienced crews and trusted subcontractors ensure quality at every step.
Step 7: Equipment, Decking & Finishing Touches
We install mechanical equipment (pumps, filters, heaters, etc.), pour and finish the decking, and complete pool surfacing (liners or plaster). Please note: you’ll coordinate with your own licensed electrician and plumber to make final utility connections at the pump pad.
Step 8: Final Walkthrough & Pool School
Once your pool is filled and ready, we’ll walk you through everything—how your equipment works, how to care for the pool, and any final punch list items. We want you to feel 100% confident and excited to dive in.
Step 9: Ongoing Support
Even after the build, Bison stays with you. We offer service plans, liner replacements, seasonal opening/closings, and equipment upgrades to keep your pool in peak condition for years to come.
Let’s Build Something Incredible Together. From concept to completion, Bison Construction is your trusted partner in creating custom pools that transform your backyard into your favorite place to be.
