INGROUND POOL INSTALLATION Coastal Pools & Spas installs inground pools for homeowners across Westchester County, Putnam County, Rockland County, Dutchess County, and the wider Hudson Valley region. "Inground pool contractor" covers the installation itself, regardless of which pool type you choose — fiberglass, gunite, or a custom luxury design.
If you already know which pool type you want, our fiberglass pool builder, gunite pool builder, and luxury pool builder pages go into the process and features for each. This page is a starting point if you're still comparing options.
An inground pool contractor manages the project from site evaluation through to a finished, working pool. Homeowners searching for an inground pool contractor or inground pool company are typically looking for a single point of contact who can handle the whole process rather than coordinating separate trades themselves.
Reviewing your yard for access, grading, and drainage before construction starts
Helping you choose a pool type and design that fits your property and budget
Coordinating excavation, plumbing, and electrical work with licensed trades where needed
Installing equipment for filtration, sanitation, and any automation you choose
Walking you through startup, water balancing, and basic care at handoff
"Inground pool" describes where the pool sits, not what it's made of. The two main construction types we build are fiberglass and gunite, and the right choice depends on your timeline, budget, and design goals.
A pre-formed shell set into an excavated space. Generally a shorter installation window and a smooth, non-porous surface that doesn't need resurfacing. See our fiberglass pool builder page for details.
Built and shaped on-site over a steel frame. More flexibility in shape and size, but takes longer and needs periodic resurfacing. See our gunite pool builder page for details.
If your priority is a highly custom design with premium features, our luxury pool builder page covers what typically goes into that kind of project, regardless of which base material you choose.
While the specifics vary by pool type, most inground pool projects follow the same broad sequence:
Initial consultation to discuss goals, budget, and site conditions
Pool type and design selection suited to your yard
Permit paperwork support and scheduling with your local municipality
Excavation and construction specific to your chosen pool type
Plumbing, electrical, and equipment installation
Water fill, startup, and a full homeowner walkthrough
PLAN YOUR PROJECT There's no single price that applies to every project. Cost depends on several factors specific to your pool and property:
Fiberglass and gunite have different cost structures and timelines
Larger or more complex designs cost more to build
Tighter driveways or limited equipment access can add time and cost
Sloped or wooded lots may need extra site work before construction begins
Pump, filtration, sanitation, heating, and automation options all affect the total
Pavers, stone, and concrete decking vary widely in price
Set by your municipality and vary by project
We provide an itemized quote after a site visit, so you can see exactly what's driving the cost for your property rather than working from a generic estimate.

Request Your Pool EstimateAn inground pool is built into the ground rather than sitting on top of it, using a permanent shell or structure such as fiberglass or gunite. Above-ground pools are freestanding structures set on the surface.
Yes. Homeowners use "contractor," "company," and "builder" interchangeably when searching for this service. They all refer to the business responsible for planning and installing the pool.
It depends on your timeline, budget, and design goals. Fiberglass generally installs faster and needs less surface maintenance. Gunite allows more custom shapes but takes longer and needs periodic resurfacing. Our fiberglass and gunite pages above cover each in more detail.
It depends on the pool type. Fiberglass installations are typically completed within a few weeks once permits are approved. Gunite construction includes curing time between stages, so the schedule usually runs longer. Weather and inspection scheduling can affect either timeline.
We serve homeowners across Westchester, Putnam, Rockland, and Dutchess counties, along with the surrounding Hudson Valley. See the service area links above, or request an estimate to confirm coverage for your address.

In most cases, yes. Our team can help with local permitting requirements and coordinate the paperwork and inspections that are part of the project timeline. Specific permit rules vary by municipality, so this is confirmed during your site consultation.
A typical installation includes a pump, filter, and sanitation system sized to your pool, along with basic safety and lighting equipment. Many homeowners add automation controls, energy-efficient pumps, or heating as upgrades.
Yes. We coordinate backyard features like patios, walkways, outdoor kitchens, fire pits, and retaining walls alongside a pool build so the finished space works together.
Useful questions include how they handle permitting, what their process looks like from start to finish, what's included in the equipment package, and what warranty coverage applies to the pool and workmanship. A written scope and timeline before work begins is a good sign you're working with an organized contractor.
