Heron Bay Parkland Luxury Pool Build
We (Hang 10 Pools ) met with a homeowner who believed his backyard may be too small for a swimming pool and he needed some guidance for the design.

They wanted to have a good balance of decking space for entertaining and also enough swim space for the kids birthday parties and entertaining friends.
One big want on their build was an inline spa for a modern look as well as function for ease of entry.
We started with the 3D concept rendering before making it come to like in just 10 weeks.
3D Rendering Parkland Pool Build Hang 10 Pools
The family created their material selections and after some weeks of dealing with Parkland building department (tree removal permits, drainage plans, etc.) We were able to get started.
Back Yard Prior to Construction. Hang 10 Pools Parkland Build.
We prepped the site, Setting up a silt fence to protect the lake from dust during construction and also cut and capped the sprinklers in the area where the pool would be installed.
Digging through palm tree roots is no fun. Also Parkland has lots of rocks and very hard soil conditions, which is great for pool stability but not so much for our crew with shovels.
Excavation was a little tricky. We had to use a 5.5 ft wide mini excavator and mini track loader and remove a section of the fence carefully to replace later.
After 2 grueling hot days we got the pool formed up and steel started. We plumbed the main drains and skimmer and called in our inspection.

By now the yard was a huge mess and I think the neighbors and even the homeowners were skeptical we would be able to turn the muddy mess into a luxury pool. We reassured everything was on schedule and provided a construction timeline.
(We did hit some Major storms so we lost about 8 days away from our 10 week goal but finished almost right as Planned.)
The rain washed mud from the access into the road and storm drain twice and I had to go out with a shovel for hours cleaning it up to protect the homeowners from the wrath of their HOA.
Hang 10 Pools Gunite Truck Parkland Pool Build
Next, we sent in the concrete trucks to blast in the gunite material for the shell construction.
We always Install 4000 psi concrete vs the minimum required 3000 psi. We spend a little bit more than we probably should but I sleep great at night knowing it's high quality pools were selling.

One thing we do differently is visqueen the fences and home to protect against rebound. Getting concrete spray on your luxury home is tough to remove and aluminum fences aren't cheap either.
Our crew has a master nozzleman who is trained to apply the material with methods to ensure no voids are left behind the rebar.

Once the concrete is blasted in, our crew of finishers gets in The shell and towels the shape with levels and screeding tools and it finally starts to look like a pool.
Hang 10 Pools Plumbers Installing The Perimeter Piping.
I Think of plumbing kinda like Legos for adults. We have to Cut and shape the pipes to fit in an organized and efficient manner, and we use a majority of 45 degree angle Fittings to avoid pressure loss.
We use blue glue to ensure the inspector can see things were glued together. Then we pressure up our pipes to 35psi to make sure everything is perfect before backfilling the trench.
Coping, Tile and Bond Wire Installed, Hang 10 Pools Parkland Build.
Following plumbing we did the mudwork for the tile and then applied the glass mosaic tiles. At the same time I dug the equipotential bond wire and called in the inspection so the electrician could begin his work.
We used Razorback Electric and they did phenomenal work.
Parkland Pool Decking Installed by Hang 10 Pools
We installed a French pattern Atlantic Cream Sandblasted Marble deck and used a technique of mixing sand with concrete and compacting it to prevent Settling and erosion under the pavers.
The labor of wheelbarrowing the materials and cutting the pieces was intense but the finished product looks amazing.
