Built to Last

Our Construction Standards & Warranty

A pool is only as good as how it's built and the warranty behind it. Every Four Seasons gunite (shotcrete) concrete pool, from Corolla to Nags Head, is built by licensed, insured professionals to the standards below, and is backed by one of the strongest warranties in the industry.

Your Four Seasons designer can walk you through the full warranty details.

How We Build

Our Construction Standards

  • Code Review

    Every plan is checked for safety and compliance with the 2012 ISPSC.

  • Pre-Construction Meeting

    Your designer meets with you before any digging starts.

  • Built for Sandy Soil

    Outer Banks sand shifts, so we over-dig 6–12″ and compact the base.

  • Steel Reinforcement

    #4 (½″) rebar throughout the shell.

  • Shotcrete Shell

    At least 8″ thick on walls and floor, 33% stronger than industry standard.

  • 12″ Locking Bond Beam

    Four bars around the entire pool; any exposed wall is at least 12″ thick.

  • Spa Plumbing

    1½″ minimum suction lines with separate returns for strong jets.

  • Reinforced, Bonded Deck

    Wire mesh helps prevent cracks and is bonded to the equipment to guard against the stray ground current common on the OBX.
