Another Fiberglass Pool Owner in Illinois Recommends Signature Pools

· ·

Fall of 2009

This past June one of the best things happened. I put in a fiberglass pool by Signature Pools. I have wanted a pool for a very long time and had done a lot of research on the type of pool I wanted. Once I decided it was going to be a fiberglass pool then it was a matter of finding the very best company to build it. After talking with several companies Signature Pools won my vote due to their knowledge, experience, confidence in their pools, and their consideration for my concerns. Todd Emmerson (Sales Manager) was awesome during the purchasing and planning phase. He listened very closely to my ideas and what we were looking for in the pool as part of the landscape plan and put it together and made it happen. The 3D computer program they used was unbelievable – it showed me exactly what my new pool would look like with our existing house and landscaping. Todd also did not just sell the pool and disappear. He was still available when needed to answer my questions.

Once the pool arrived and the crew started it was unbelievable how quickly things happened. Tom McNelis (President) and the whole crew are the greatest guys. Our yard is very important to us and tearing it up was very stressful but the guys are so good at what they do installing these pools that the mess was minimal. The guys really went the extra mile to help fix the mess that was made due to the three inches of rain we had three days prior to the start of construction. The process was so quick that within four hours the pool was filling with water and within twenty four hours the concrete decking around the pool was finished and most everything was ready to go. Within a few days Jim Gavula (Permit and Job Coordinator) had the pool crystal clear and swim ready. I could not have been more pleased with everyone on the Signature Pools team!

With the salt water system my pool has basically no maintenance. I love telling people who say pools are so much work – Not Mine! Just some vacuuming and water testing is all the work the pool has caused – little to none. Even if we cannot get in the pool just sitting by it is such a great experience. Our yard is back to normal and we now have the luxury of a pool in our own private yard. I don’t for one second regret any part of putting in a fiberglass saltwater pool and have told many people it’s the only way to go and that Signature Pools is the best at what they do!

Thanks So Much Guys!

Sincerely,

Heather Tesdal

Leisure Pools announces new model for 2010: The Grand Riviera

· ·

Leisure Pools introduces the Grand RivieraLeisure Pools has announced a new model for the 2010 season. With dimensions of 40′ x 16′ x 8′, “The Grand Riviera will be the most innovative and stylish deep end pool in the industry” according to Ashley Gill, CEO of Leisure Pools.

The “Grand Riviera” will be the largest pool built in the Riviera series. In 2007 the Riviera line was introduced and was available in both a 34′ x 15′ x 5′ 11″ as well as a 30′ x 15′ x 5′ 8″ model. The first Riviera models have been very well received across the country and we here at Signature Pools have built many of these pools since it’s original release. The “Grand Riviera” will only add to the success of the Riviera line.

During 2009 our team at Signature Pools installed Riviera model fiberglass pools in several cities throughout Illinois including Addison, Hinsdale, Plainfield, South Barrington, and Seneca. The Grand Riviera will be a great addition to the Riviera line for customers looking for one of the largest free form fiberglass pools with 8′ depth available. The Grand Riviera will be available in any of the four exclusively licensed Aquaguard® gel coat finishes offered by Leisure Pools.

The much anticipated Grand Riviera is currently in the mold development process. This process begins with forming a plug for the pool. The plug is essentially a perfectly built model of the pool made out of wood. Once the plug is complete a mold is then built based off of the plug. Upon the mold being completed the pool will then be ready for production. We are anticipating the pool to be ready for production by early spring and are currently accepting orders for this incredible new pool!
Below you will see a video from our friends at River Pools and Spas (they serve the Virginia and Maryland areas) showing the beginning stages of the plug being built for the new Grand Riviera.

Vinyl to Fiberglass Pool: A Backyard Transformation

Vinyl Pool to Fiberglass Pool: A Backyard Transformation!

At least once a year, Signature Pools is approached by a homeowner asking to have their old, damaged pool replaced. In some cases our clients are simply tired of the maintenance and upkeep of a vinyl or concrete pool; other pools are completely un-useable and eyesores in their backyard. In either case, we are happy to consult with these customers, evaluate the condition of their existing swimming pool equipment, and design a plan to transform the backyard into a family oasis and gathering place.

The project below, located in Addison IL, started with an old, damaged vinyl liner swimming pool. The homeowners wished they could have a place for the entire family to enjoy, and called in Signature Pools and Spas to re-design and construct the space. Take a look at some of the before and after pictures below, or click here for a photo series of the entire transformation!

This is what the existing vinyl liner pool looked like when we showed up.  You can see the wrinkles in the vinyl and how the walls are collapsing into the pool.  Also notice how dirty the liner gets over time.  No amount of scrubbing will bring back the original color to the surface.  This pool is completely useless in its present state.

Once the old vinyl pool is removed, workers prepare the excivated site, remove any more necessary dirt, and set the sand base for the fiberglass pool.  Great care is taken to make sure this base is constructed to exacting standards.

The fiberglass pool shell is carefully set into place on the sand base and immediately filled with water.  Sand and stone is then backfilled around the outside of the pool.  Later, concrete forms will be placed around the pool to form the pool deck and secure the pool into place.

Once concrete is poured the forms are removed from the edges.  Here you can see the fresh concrete right after it is poured.  Only a few more days and this project is complete.

Final touches are added to the swimming pool area.  In this picture you can see the completed backyard transformation, including a water slide, textured concrete around the pool, and a large brick paver patio.
