Bringing a luxurious pool idea to fruition begins with building a solid foundation, starting with the people behind the scenes who make it happen. Pacific Pools, a residential and commercial pool and spa construction and design company, has extensive experience and an impressive track record developing hundreds of swimming pools in California. President Clayton Hunt credits his company’s success to a collaborative work culture and cultivating strong relationships with architects, contractors, vendors, office and field staff, and other members of its team.

“When your client and everyone around you share a collective attitude to do the absolute best, challenges are easier to overcome. We realize we are in it together to develop the ideal solution. Fostering and nurturing these relationships is key to our success,” says Hunt.

Bridging the gap between form and function is one of the most common challenges the Pacific Pools team solves, creating designs that perfectly blend aesthetics with usability. Occasionally, the team is given an initial design idea and is expected to figure out the best way to build it. However, once they start having customer interactions, they realize that a client may have certain expectations that cannot be met in the given budget. In these instances, problem-solving and effective strategy implementation come into play, and Pacific Pools has the expertise to use automation, plumbing, and other relevant elements in a project to get clients what they need without compromising the design or functionality.

“We also tap into industry-leading technology to optimize our operations and service. To keep customers happy and ensure everything is organized and planned out, we leverage construction management software to track a project from lead generation to execution. We also provide homeowners with access to the system so they can monitor project status and budget and reach out to us if they have any queries,” says Hunt.

Pacific Pools stays on top of project management with the software and keeps everyone in the loop, whether vendors, contractors, or owners, to streamline the entire process and avoid any bottlenecks.

Open communication makes it feasible for the team to execute high-end projects seamlessly, which begin with pre-construction consultation with the architect, general contractor, and owner. These discussions go beyond surface details and touch on everything from materials performance and equipment to client expectations, ensuring that all stakeholders are on the same page.

Gathering these initial insights is paramount, enabling Pacific Pools to guide pre-construction planning and the final construction process. As a result, the homeowner or architect is comfortable with the decisions and costs, and they better understand the solution design and performance levels. By fostering transparency, the company executes projects to the highest standard and provides high-quality products, resulting in a positive experience for clients from concept to completion.

Client satisfaction is a top priority for Pacific Pools, evident in its high customer retention rate. Over the last 20 years, the team has built long-lasting relationships by delivering premium services combined with fine craftsmanship, which wouldn’t have been possible without its talented and tight-knit team that brings over 100 years of combined experience.

While the pool construction industry evolves with contractors and owners expecting modernized processes, Pacific Pools will rise to the occasion by continuing to provide exceptional service and adapting to innovations in the marketplace to meet their clients’ everchanging needs.
