How Does Pool Ownership Affect My Homeowner’s Insurance?
March 14, 2025
At KD Contracting LLC, we’ve refined a smooth, easy pool construction process that transforms your backyard in King George, VA into a gorgeous paradise. Building a pool is a significant endeavor, but our organized approach, driven by over 18 years of skill and knowledge in Northern Virginia’s approval process, guarantees a effortless process for homeowners. From your first dream to the first exciting splash, we manage every aspect with care, transparency, and a dedication to excellence. Here’s how we deliver your custom pool to life in King George, step by step:
Your pool project kicks off with a personal consultation. We meet at your King George property to listen to your visions, grasp your goals, and match your budget. Our team surveys your backyard, examining space, elevation, soil conditions, and entry points to guarantee success. We’ll review your preferred pool type—modern geometric, freeform natural, or family-friendly—including size, levels, and extras like tanning ledges. Through cutting-edge 3D modeling tools, we design a precise, interactive design that visualizes your vision to life, revealing the pool’s layout, location in your yard, and integration with outdoor spaces. We perfect this plan with your feedback until it’s just what you’ve wanted, tailored to King George’s unique vibe.
Once your design is finalized, we dive into the permitting process—a essential step in Northern Virginia. In King George, installing an inground pool needs a building permit, frequently plus safety permits, varying on local codes. No need to stress—KD Contracting takes care of it all. We create a detailed site plan (showing pool placement relative to property lines, house, and features), construction drawings, and any extra forms needed by King George’s officials. Virginia code (§ 15.2-921) demands permits for pools over 150 square feet or deeper than 24 inches, and a 4-foot safety fence with automatic gates. We guarantee adherence with local setbacks (e.g., spacing from property lines, utilities, or easements) and King George’s local regulations. As Class A contractors approved in VA, we too navigate HOA approvals if your neighborhood requires them, submitting plans and responding to questions. This phase often takes 1-3 weeks, but our area knowledge speeds things up, keeping your project moving.
With permits obtained, we schedule your start date and start excavation. Our crew outlines the pool’s layout in your King George yard, then operates precision excavators to dig per the set design details. We arrange utility identification (e.g. gas, water, power) prior to prevent disruptions and carefully deal with earth disposal. If your yard has issues—stone, wet ground, or inclines common in King George—our expertise handles correct handling, including adjusting or water flow measures. By the end of this phase, your pool’s outline emerges, laying the foundation for construction.
This is where your pool comes to life, tailored to your selected type:
For all types, we place basic plumbing lines (jets, drains, systems) in this stage, providing a solid base for your King George pool.
After, our licensed experts and specialists activate your pool to life. We place circulation plumbing—systems for jets, outlets, jets, and extras like elements—testing for leaks to confirm quality. At the same time, we run electrical wiring from your home’s source to the equipment area, connecting filters, equipment, lights, features, and automation systems. All installations meet VA regulations, with required safety and GFCI safety for security. By this point, your pool’s main structure are fully ready.
For fiberglass, we backfill around the shell with care, settling it as water enters. For vinyl pools, we fit the tailored liner, vacuuming air for a snug seal, then pour with water to finish it. Concrete pools bypass this step (its shell is the form), though we could fill outer sides after plumbing. The rim—the pool’s top border—is added here for vinyl and fiberglass, featuring materials like concrete.
Coping finishes the pool’s top, boosting function and function. For concrete pools, we cast or lay stylish coping (like travertine, brick); for vinyl, it secures the liner; for fiberglass, it’s customizable. Then, we build your deck—textured concrete, tiles, or natural stone—guaranteeing adequate angle for runoff away from the pool. This step locks your King George pool’s structure and delivers a gorgeous patio space.
For concrete pools, we place top-edge tiles (glass) and coat the inside with plaster or aggregate finishes (e.g. PebbleTec), setting it submerged for quality. Fiberglass and vinyl pools already have their finishes, though custom tile additions are possible. We monitor water chemistry at startup to safeguard the new surface.
We add final details (skimmers, features, extras), verify all equipment (pumps), and complete yard touch-ups (grading) around your King George pool. Every detail is polished to perfection.
Northern Virginia requires checks—steel, bonding, pressure, and completion (gates)—that we arrange in King George. We guarantee alignment with all codes, clearing the ultimate check before completion.
When finished, we perform a “Pool School” walkthrough in King George, explaining how to manage features, check water, and maintain your pool. You’ll be given docs and assistance—reach (540) 940-0002 whenever.
Plunge into your clear King George pool! We take pride delivering quality and keeping you updated, completing projects on schedule and plan (conditions permitting).
