What Factors Should I Consider When Designing a Custom Pool and Spa?
Custom pools and spas are significant investments. To empower confident customers and an informed design process, we encourage customers to consider the following:
- Property layout/available space
- Intended purpose, such as relaxation, fitness, entertainment, etc.
- Building materials, style, shape, and size
- Add-on features like lighting, enclosures, landscaping, etc.
- Budget and timeline
What Is the Project Timeline for Custom Pool and Spa Design and Installation?
The duration of custom pool and spa projects varies from one design to the next. These timelines are based on the scope and complexity of the design, site preparation demands, and building specifications. On average, our services take between 8-12-weeks.

How Do I Choose the Right Pool Design?
Can You Add a Built-in Spa to an Existing Pool?
To determine the right pool design, consider your lifestyle, projected usage aspirations, budget, and available yard space. These factors directly influence the size, shape, and style of your custom pool and spa design. However, for a maximized design experience, we recommend scheduling a consultation with our custom pool and spa design experts.
A built-in spa can often be incorporated into an existing pool installation. However, there are exceptions. To ensure high-quality results, Cascade provides on-site assessments to gauge whether to add a spa or opt for a remodel. Complete remodels may be encouraged when the pool is outdated or damaged.
What Type of Built-In Pool Is Best for Northeast Florida Homes?
We use our local expertise to help customers choose the right pools for their Northeast Florida homes. Keeping in mind our humid climate and distinct soil considerations, we recommend considering gunite or concrete pools. These options are entirely customizable while providing extended durability and long-term value.
How Long Do Spa Pools Last?
The longevity of a custom pool and spa depends on the initial installation and routine maintenance. Opting for cheap installations or neglecting vital pool and spa care demands streamlines the risk of recurring repairs and premature replacements. On the other hand, quality installation and hands-on maintenance extend the lifespan of your investment.
Do You Offer Pool Customization Options?

- Numerous geometric and free-form pool shape options
