Custom Pool Construction in Mount Pleasant, SC

A well-built pool should be something you enjoy for decades, not something you have to patch up every few years. At Aqua Blue Pools, we design and build poured-concrete pools that hold up season after season, combining structural integrity with a clean, custom fit for your space.

We’ve served Mount Pleasant and the Lowcountry since 1991, building pools tailored to each property. From permitting and excavation to plumbing and finishing, we manage every step in-house and work closely with homeowners, general contractors, and developers to get the job done right.

What We Build and How

We build concrete pools. That’s it. No fiberglass shells or prefabricated systems. Each pool is poured and shaped on site, reinforced with steel rebar, and tailored to meet local building codes and project-specific needs.

We take into account:

  • Soil conditions and drainage
  • Elevation changes or retaining needs
  • Existing structures and utilities
  • Intended use, like lap swimming, entertaining, or hydrotherapy
  • Long-term maintenance demands
  • Safety and accessibility requirements

 

This isn’t one-size-fits-all work. A pool built for a family with small children will differ from one meant for a short-term rental or community clubhouse. We factor that in from the start.

Residential Pool Construction in Mount Pleasant

In a residential setting, layout and yard usage are major considerations. We ask questions that many contractors overlook:

  • Do you need a shallow ledge for young kids or tanning chairs?
  • Will the pool be used year-round or just seasonally?
  • Is a heat pump or gas heater worth installing now or later?
  • Do you prefer a saltwater system or traditional chlorine?

We also map out space for decking, fencing, and equipment access. We work within parameters for homes with limited square footage or strict homeowners association (HOA) guidelines to design something functional and code-compliant.

Some common options include:

  • Geometric pools for properties with modern architecture or structured outdoor layouts
  • Freeform pools for properties with mature landscaping or curved patios
  • Plunge pools in compact backyards for cooling off, relaxing, or adding water features without taking up too much space.
  • Infinity edge pools on sloped lots with marsh or waterway views
  • Elevated pools where soil conditions or drainage concerns limit in-ground options

Our team of pool builders in Mount Pleasant makes sure the final structure matches what was promised on paper. We don’t outsource construction crews or leave clients guessing mid-project.

Commercial Pools for High-Use Properties

We’ve completed commercial builds across the Lowcountry for hotels, gyms, apartment complexes, and community centers. These projects are driven by timelines, permitting schedules, and safety codes that differ from residential work.

Our Mount Pleasant, SC, pool builders work closely with architects, engineers, and inspectors to ensure the pool meets ADA requirements, fencing regulations, mechanical specs, and surface traction standards.

Past clients have included:

  • Boutique hotels adding small soaking or wading pools for guest use
  • Apartment developers needing multi-depth pools with sun decks and child-safe zones
  • Athletic facilities building lap pools and recovery spas
  • Private clubs installing members-only pool areas with integrated water features
  • Neighborhood HOAs updating 15- to 20-year-old pool structures to meet current safety codes

 

We coordinate site work with other trades for each project to avoid delays and minimize staging problems. We deliver a finished pool on schedule—fully operational, inspection-ready, and built to meet all project specs.

Maintenance, Equipment, and Service Work

We provide scheduled pool service throughout the area, including mechanical inspections, seasonal openings and closings, chemical testing, and routine cleanings.

Our Mount Pleasant pool services include:

  • Filter cleaning and replacement
  • Chlorinator and salt system checks
  • Leak detection and minor repairs
  • Pool surface inspections for cracks, discoloration, or delamination
  • Winterization and startup prep

Most service clients are homeowners who prefer a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly schedule, especially during peak swim season. If you’re a property manager or Airbnb host, we can build service into a rotation to reduce downtime and guest complaints.

Renovations and System Upgrades

If your pool is more than 10 years old, it could use a few upgrades. We offer full renovation services, from minor cosmetic updates to complete overhauls of the pool shell, plumbing, and mechanical systems

Common renovations include:

  • Replastering worn surfaces
  • Replacing outdated tile and coping
  • Switching from chlorine to saltwater systems
  • Installing energy-efficient variable speed pumps
  • Upgrading lights to LED systems
  • Replacing broken skimmers or jets

 

We also renovate pools built by other companies. Many older pools in the Mount Pleasant area were installed with now-outdated systems or materials that require replacement to meet today’s efficiency standards.
