"Jay and his team at Greenland did a great job for me! I would highly recommend them! They installed a paver walkway and patio in the backyard, including a border around my grass area. New sprinklers, new plants, weed barrier & pebble ground cover. We also did a dry riverbed in the front yard with plantings and sprinkler system. I’m very pleased. Thank you!"

"Working with California Custom Pools was an exceptional experience! We contracted for a long-overdue pool and spa resurfacing project, including mastic and stonework repair. Our rep Brian immediately understood the scope of work needed and executed flawlessly: no hassle, no cross selling or change orders, just impeccable work and communication. The quality of the work completed was only outmatched by the remarkable speed in which this project was completed: approximately two weeks from incubation to final handshake. We are grateful to this outstanding company and look forward to enjoying our fully refreshed oasis for years to come!"

We pride ourselves on delivering reliable, quality work, while maintaining open communication with clients and acting with integrity. Our expertise is our primary asset, and we will strive to keep you as informed as possible. We are always willing to work with new clients, but the high lead fees from Angi's have made us unable to respond to every new construction and remodel lead. If you'd like to work with us, don't hesitate to reach out directly.

"I had a structural issue in my pool, before then I had at least three other companies come out to analyze the issue. When Dan came, he made it so simple and fixed it for me for less than half of the other companies said it would cost. He also followed up with me to make sure that it is fixed. I recommend this company to anyone with any pool issues. If he can’t fix it, he will lead you to the right solution.. then will always be my first call if I ever have any structural issues around my house or if I decide to build a new pool when I move."

Pool Construction and Installation questions, answered by experts

When designing your dream pool, it's important to leave enough room for safe walkways, patios, and extras such as outdoor kitchens and fire pits. Your local building codes may specify the minimum space between your pool and your house, utility lines, and property line. In most cases, the area of the patio around the pool should be equal to or greater than the surface area of the pool.

A pool enclosure could be a great decision if you’re considering dedicating funds toward pool remodeling costs. Pool enclosures offer benefits like enhanced security and keeping out dirt, debris, dust, and insects—which helps reduce the maintenance and cleaning needed—and uninvited animals and trespassers. Your enclosure can also provide extra shade and UV protection to make your pool time more enjoyable. In some cases, your pool enclosure may increase your home’s value.

Using a gas pool heater is the fastest way to heat an outdoor pool. Gas pool heaters are powerful and can increase pool water temperature by 1 to 3 degrees Fahrenheit per hour. Using a gas pool heater and a solar pool cover will get your pool warm as fast as possible.

The best way to heat a swimming pool depends on your pool and location. Those living in sunny environments may find that a solar-powered heater works just fine, but you may need something more reliable, like a gas or electric heater if it’s often cloudy where you live. When in doubt, try a few lower-cost options first to see if they meet your needs before going all in on a more expensive heater.

You should always check your user's manual for the weight capacity of your pool enclosure. In most cases, it is not safe for someone to walk on their enclosure. Professional pool installers will have more experience in repairing enclosure roofs and how to scale them without risking injury.
