Our Custom Pool Construction Services
Every new pool construction project at Aqua Jet Pools is treated as a custom build. We do not offer cookie-cutter packages. We design and construct each pool around your yard, your lifestyle, and your budget.
In-Ground Pool Construction
Our core service is full in-ground pool construction for residential properties across Hudson Valley. We build concrete, gunite, vinyl liner, and fiberglass in-ground pools in any shape, size, or configuration. Every new pool construction project begins with a site assessment and custom design consultation before a single shovel breaks ground.
Custom Pool Design
Great pool construction starts with great design. Our in-house design process maps your yard topography, sun exposure, utility lines, and setback requirements before producing a detailed pool plan. We present 3D renderings so you can visualize exactly how your custom pool will look in your specific outdoor space before construction begins.
Gunite & Concrete Pool Construction
Gunite pools offer the highest level of design flexibility and durability of any pool construction method. As an experienced gunite pool builder, Aqua Jet Pools applies shotcrete over a structural rebar framework to create pools of any shape, depth, or profile. Gunite pools are the preferred choice for custom pool builds with unique shapes, raised walls, attached spas, or integrated water features.
Vinyl Liner Pool Construction
Vinyl liner pools offer excellent value for new pool construction, with a smooth, non-abrasive surface and a wide range of pattern choices. Our pool builder team installs precision-fitted liners over structural walls and floors engineered for long-term durability. Vinyl liner pools are a popular choice among Hudson Valley homeowners looking for an attractive, cost-effective new pool.
Pool & Spa Combinations
Combine your new pool construction with a built-in spa for the ultimate backyard experience. Our pool builder team integrates spa shells, spillover features, and shared equipment systems seamlessly into new pool construction projects. Whether you want a raised spa with a waterfall spillover or a flush-mounted spa alongside your pool, we
Water Features & Custom Additions
Elevate your custom pool with professionally installed water features including deck jets, bubblers, waterfalls, grottos, tanning ledges, sun shelves, and LED lighting systems. These additions are planned and integrated during the pool construction phase for seamless installation and equipment integration.
Pool Decking & Surrounds
Your pool is only as impressive as the space around it. Aqua Jet Pools provides pool decking construction as part of our full-service new pool construction offering. We install concrete, paver, and natural stone decking to complement your custom pool design and create a finished, resort-quality outdoor space.
Our Pool Construction Process
We believe that a well-managed pool construction project is as important as the finished pool itself. Here is exactly how Aqua Jet Pools takes your project from first conversation to first swim.
Step 1 — Free Design Consultation
We meet at your property to assess the site, understand your vision, and discuss pool types, sizes, and features that suit your yard and budget. There is no obligation and no pressure. This is a collaborative conversation, not a sales pitch.
Step 2 — Custom Pool Design & 3D Rendering
Our design team produces a full custom pool plan including shape, depth profiles, feature placement, equipment layout, and decking footprint. We provide 3D renderings for your review and refine the design until it is exactly what you want.
Step 3 — Permitting & Site Preparation
Aqua Jet Pools handles all local building permits required for new pool construction in Hudson Valley municipalities. We coordinate utility locates, manage access logistics, and prepare the site before excavation begins. You do not have to navigate local permitting requirements alone.
Step 4 — Excavation
Our excavation team digs to the precise specifications of your custom pool design. Excavation is carefully managed to protect existing landscaping, structures, and underground utilities.
Step 5 — Structural Build
For gunite pools, our crew installs the full rebar steel framework before applying the shotcrete shell. For vinyl liner builds, we construct the structural wall system and floor before fitting the liner. All structural pool construction work is inspected at each phase.
Step 6 — Plumbing & Electrical
Our licensed plumbers and electricians install all pool plumbing, return lines, main drains, skimmers, and equipment pad connections. Electrical work covers pool lighting, pump wiring, automation systems, and bonding to code.
Step 7 — Equipment Installation
We install and configure all pool equipment including pump, filter, heater, salt system or chlorinator, and automation controls. Equipment is selected to match your pool size, feature set, and energy efficiency preferences.
Step 8 — Interior Finish
Gunite pools receive their interior plaster, pebble, or aggregate finish. Vinyl liner pools receive their custom liner installation. This is the step where your custom pool truly begins to take shape.
Step 9 — Decking & Surrounds
Pool decking and coping are installed and finished to the design specification. We complete all hardscape work, waterline tile, and any integrated water feature construction at this stage.
Step 10 — Fill, Startup & Walkthrough
We fill your new pool, balance the startup water chemistry, run all equipment through full operational checks, and conduct a detailed owner walkthrough. We show you how to operate every system and leave you with full documentation before we close out the project.

Pool Construction Pricing FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does new pool construction cost in Hudson Valley?
New pool construction pricing in Hudson Valley varies based on pool type, size, features, site conditions, and finish selections. As a general reference, a standard in-ground vinyl liner pool typically starts in the range of $50,000 to $75,000. Gunite or concrete custom pool construction with integrated spa, water features, and premium decking typically ranges from $80,000 to $150,000 or more depending on scope. Aqua Jet Pools provides a detailed, fixed-price quote for every custom pool project after a site consultation and design review.
How long does pool construction take?
A typical new pool construction project takes between 8 and 14 weeks from permit approval to final fill, depending on pool type, weather, permit processing times, and project complexity. Gunite pool builds generally take longer than vinyl liner builds due to the curing time required for the shotcrete shell. We provide a detailed project schedule at the outset of every pool construction engagement so you know what to expect at each phase.
Do I need a permit to build a pool in Hudson Valley?
Yes. All in-ground pool construction in New York State requires a building permit from your local municipality. Requirements vary by town and county. Aqua Jet Pools handles the entire permitting process on your behalf, including plan submission, agency coordination, and scheduling all required inspections. You will not need to navigate local building departments yourself.
What is the best time of year to start pool construction?
The ideal time to begin the pool construction process in Hudson Valley is late fall through early spring. Starting your project during the off-season allows permitting and planning to be completed so excavation can begin as soon as ground conditions allow in spring. This positions your new pool for completion and availability by early to mid-summer. Demand for pool builders in Hudson Valley peaks in spring so booking earlier secures your place in the construction schedule.
What type of pool is best for my property?
The right pool type depends on your budget, desired aesthetics, maintenance preferences, and site conditions. Gunite pools offer maximum design flexibility and long-term durability, making them ideal for fully custom pool designs. Vinyl liner pools offer strong value and a comfortable swimming surface at a lower construction cost. Fiberglass pools offer the fastest installation time and lowest long-term maintenance requirements but are limited to manufactured shapes and sizes. Our pool builder team helps you evaluate the right choice for your specific property during the free design consultation.
Can you build a pool on a sloped or difficult yard?
Yes. Aqua Jet Pools has experience with challenging pool construction sites including sloped lots, rocky terrain, high water table conditions, and tight access situations common across Hudson Valley properties. Site-specific solutions such as retaining walls, elevated pool decks, or custom excavation approaches are incorporated into the design and pricing from the start.
Do you offer financing for new pool construction?
Yes. Aqua Jet Pools offers flexible financing options for new pool construction projects to help Hudson Valley homeowners manage the investment over time. Low monthly payments and fast approvals are available. Contact us for details during your consultation.
