Mission Hills is a neighborhood in the northeastern part of the San Fernando Valley. Home and property sizes and layouts vary.
Decisions about a new swimming pool often hinge on how the pool relates to the home, patio, garden, and walkways.
A swimming pool placed thoughtfully and strategically can connect the home and backyard and serve to redefine and re-purpose the backyard.
Integrating a swimming pool with other backyard improvements can create a backyard that is on a whole new level. Careful integration can help avoid a hodge-podge of disconnected materials and improvements.
Our luxury pool construction services focus on creating a coordinated outdoor environment.
Adding features because they look luxurious is not our philosophy. We consider the pool placement, architectural lines and finishes, spa design, landscaping, and outdoor living areas.
A well-thought-out design and placement of a luxury pool creates a focal point and a visual impact without looking out of place and overwhelming the property.
Through custom pool construction, homeowners can consider several things when designing a backyard pool.
From shape to size to the specific features a pool can have, there are a variety of options to choose from.
For example, you may want a pool that has a special area designed for seated lounging. Or perhaps a geometric shape is more your style.
Our inground pool construction services help homeowners plan the placement of their permanent swimming pool.
Factors that impact the design of the pool, placement of the pool equipment, pool entry steps, pool deck, and usable yard space, must be taken into account before the final design is approved.
Gunite is a construction method used to create reinforced-concrete swimming pool shells. It allows flexibility in pool shapes and designs, making it suitable for many custom pool projects.
The appropriate construction method depends on your property’s soil conditions, structural requirements, design preferences, and engineering specifications. Our team can discuss suitable options during the project planning process.
Individuals planning to construct a gunite pool in Mission Hills should discuss the design and type of finish to be used for the pool shell, as well as the required structural and construction details.
An added spa, attached or raised, can be a great addition to a swimming pool if it is planned for at the outset.
our custom spa construction services, you can envision and create integrated spa layouts, as well as allow for convenient access from your pool and patio.
Hillside construction requires attention to excavation and structural requirements.
Not every Mission Hills property requires hillside construction. The appropriate approach depends on the actual site.
The luxury backyard isn’t just the pool.
You can consider our outdoor living services along with pool decking, patios, landscaping, outdoor kitchens, gathering areas, etc.
When used together, these elements help create a backyard that functions for comfortable everyday use.
Homes near the historic Mission San Fernando Rey de España and in Brand Park comprise the established neighborhoods of Mission Hills.
Improving the backyard of an existing home may begin with an old patio, overgrown landscaping, a partial barrier, or limited space between buildings.
These are unique to a property and not conditions that apply to every home.
When considering design options prior to constructing a new pool, think about what existing features should be maintained and how the pool deck will connect to the house.
A large pool does not always equal the best design.
Look at your backyard and determine where you need to incorporate dining and lounging areas. A swimming pool that integrates thoughtful design with site landscaping may best achieve the balance needed for the outdoor environment.
Consider how people will travel from the house to the pool, and where furniture will be placed, and what will make the pool area comfortable for use by guests.
Existing homes and fences on a site may control the construction access on all sides of the home.
Think about where equipment and materials will access the construction site, and where the pool equipment will be located.
Pool excavation requirements depend on access, soil conditions, existing structures, and the planned design.
Mission Hills benefits from the San Fernando Valley’s dry, warm climate in the summer.
Elements such as providing shade, selecting poolside materials, landscape plantings, and seating placement need to be designed at the start of the project.
A coordinated pool landscape design can help homeowners plan privacy, comfortable gathering areas, and the overall appearance of the backyard.
