How to Build a Swimming Pool

[@16nowhereman]

Easy! I'll start building mine tomorrow after work.

[@CIintB3ASTW0oD]

You finish it?

[@nikitoe7214]

How did it go??

[@16nowhereman]

​@@CIintB3ASTW0oD Yes, I dug about a foot underground and used wooden boards for the side that you use for house roofs. I then put a large blue tarp on the bottom and then heavy duty clear plastic over it and it worked great. It was 16 X 8 and 3.5 feet deep. Last summer I was going to make it bigger, 20 X 16 and 4 feet deep but I sold the house.

[@16nowhereman]

@@nikitoe7214 Great! lots of fun. Read the reply to Crackles

[@jdavis6646]

[@Inyopools]

Luckily, not our backs. :) - MGS

[@Phoenix-hg8lj]

OMG!!! I love it! Starting my project soon. Love the grass!

[@stevelopez372]

Great job guys, such fine soil to work with.

[@Phoenix-hg8lj]

Happy 5 year anniversary of this pool! I hope you had lots of fun building it and that it is still in good use today.❤️❤️

[@prithivraj2422]

Super reply

[@reblfist8849]

Thats not even remotely funny

[@PaulDeanBumgarner]

The pool is great but the enclosure is awesome too! How/where/what is that material sourced?

[@rich4244]

no need to compact the dirt around the pool with a jumping jack? Would fail inspection in FL, unless im missing some thing on why no need for it by code.

[@Inyopools]

Richard thanks for the comment, I believe the orange machine used at the 6:30 mark of the video is what was used to compact the dirt for the pool deck. The pool did pass the soil compaction inspection by the state and I believe that was the piece of equipment that was used to pass the states compaction requirements. Code I found online. CHAPTER 18: SOILS AND FOUNATIONS 1803 EXCAVATION, GRADING AND FILL 1803.5 Compacted fill material. Where footings will bear on compacted fill material, the compacted fill shall comply with the provisions of an approved report, which shall contain the following: 1. Specifications for the preparation of the site prior to placement of compacted fill material. 2. Specifications for material to be used as compacted fill. 3. Test method to be used to determine the maximum dry density and optimum moisture content of the material to be used as compacted soil. 4. Maximum allowable thickness of each lift of compacted fill material. 5. Field test method for determining the in-place dry density of the compacted fill. 6. Minimum acceptable in-place dry density expressed as a percentage of the maximum dry density determined in accordance with Item 3. 7. Number and frequency of field tests required to determine compliance with Item 6. Exception: Compacted fill material less than 12 inches (305 mm) in depth need not comply with an approved report, provided it has been compacted to a minimum of 90 percent Modified Proctor in accordance with ASTM D 1557. The compaction shall be verified by a qualified inspector approved by the building official.

[@stephencapachione4107]

Nice looking shell .good job too the g unite crew

[@livinfloridian1658]

What is the form material you roll out to form the pool to hold the gunite. Brown flexible material

[@supsnap]

Nice video. Question, did you guys realize after putting the dirt back down around the pool that you need to install the pvc piping the returns and pump?

[@Inyopools]

We filmed and produced the timelapse video, but we were not the contractors shown in it. There's a chance what you mention is possible, but the answer is lost to time.

[@bethwhite723]

I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

[@Phoenix-hg8lj]

Me too!

[@Bhrazz]

Why anyone would dislike this? Nice work, Wish I had the cash to do that!

[@kennylim535]

Appreciate If you could advise What is the mixing ratio of the mortar, how much sand and cement?

[@Inyopools]

For simple concrete the mix would be portland cement, sand and gravel mixed together in a ratio of 1:2:3

[@charlesmosori9444]

Inyo Pools what??

[@hondacr-v2229]

I have inground pool with liner, we now replace liner, what i need put in pool floor, which concrete best for pool? Because my pool in floor have something sandy i think want off sand and cover cement.

[@russ00074]

Honda cr-v One part Grey Portland Cement to 2-4 parts Vermiculite. That is a semi-porous mineral which will yield a soft firm bottom under your liner. You can adjust the amount of cement according to how strong you need the final product.

[@hondacr-v2229]

ok Thank you

[@jemeve5636]

what was the brown stuff you layered the sides with?

[@Inyopools]

I believe it is a covered sheet of weaved rebar.

[@tahitihawaii5666]

I LOVE IT SOOOO MUHC!

[@staceywilliams55]

I like the part where they build the enclosure. Very cool!

[@thefuture8173]

The enclosure probably cost 13-20k alone.

[@erickibarra5516]

Nice video showing in time laps. thanks

[@mhathcote]

Nice job! How long did the process take from groundbreaking to completion? Thanks!

[@Inyopools]

Thanks mhathcote! The total construction time was 9 weeks.

[@cindyclairosabel9478]

That means 1 month

[@Inyopools]

Cindy clair Osabel 9 weeks is a little more than 2 months

[@hondacr-v2229]

Inyo Pools I have inground pool with liner, we now replace liner, what i need put in pool floor, which concrete best for pool? Because my pool in floor have something sandy i think want off sand and cover cement.

[@GabrielFerreira-gh5ou]

a lot would i say maybe 18000$ because of the machinary etc

[@YoungFamilySquad]

What size pool is this

[@karllee893]

what is that roll that you use for the form? Thanks

[@Inyopools]

Can you give us a timestamp of the roll you're referring to in the video?

[@livinfloridian1658]

At the 1:23 mark. The rolls of brown flexible material that you roll out to form before gunite

[@mikieb6331]

Nice Pool what is the water color called?

[@scottydntno]

What was the final cost for this setup?

[@oliviaprice8289]

2 dollar

[@nichts._69]

i just wasted 13 minutes of my life to see how a pool is made worth it

[@CareersJobsEducationWorldOver]

Nice one

[@franklyspeaking8874]

Amazing! Beautiful!

[@ambikaconstruction-yj9vo]

How much it costs? and how many liters capacity it have?

[@lashawnmcdonald4978]

Can anyone tell me where I can get training on swimming pool construction ?

[@Squint1222]

How big of a pool is it? I would love a pool but I want a really big one.

[@kesterramos2406]

Where do the water go after you drain the pool? Is it recycled and filtered? Or just drained?

[@Inyopools]

If you're referring to the water pooling in the deep end during construction, you can use a sump pump to direct it to a storm drain or into your lawn.

[@emperorsanders5744]

How much.

[@ShampooWow]

Awesome video! I like it

[@mrsmomme3619]

beautiful! enjoy!!!!

[@superdeleon]

How much would a project like this costs? Without the screen

[@Inyopools]

A basic pool in Florida is currently starting around $100k. It may be different in other locations.

[@KRAMNOS100]

Did I miss the part where they tied in the main drain or does it just drain into the ground?

[@jesseison-bowman3964]

So what was the grand total cost for the home owner? How much can I save if I dig it out myself and get the hole ready for rebar?

[@laurenceoliverii2248]

That looks awesome!

[@saminashakeel5576]

What is the total cost of this swimming pool

[@richardgraham65]

What was the orange plastic netting that kept going up and down for?

[@Inyopools]

Hi Richard, The orange plastic netting is used as a safety barrier and is set up each time workers are inactive or away from the construction site.

[@wlehtola]

It's actually snow fence.. for slowing drifting snow down. But has many other uses including a warning barrier, but it wouldn't stop a chihuahua from getting thru it

[@thefuture8173]

It's to warn people that construction work or a hazard is on the other side of it and to stay out.

[@LuciferMorningstar666-e1s]

What kind of pvc pipe do you use? Ppr?

[@snookcandy2330]

What kind of finish was that? Why didnt y’all use the mixer and shoot it?

[@roneelnand1875]

How long it took to build?

[@Inyopools]

This took about 12 weeks. There were very few delays.

[@ryanl2650]

What is blown onto the walls??

[@Inyopools]

Concrete is blown onto the walls and floor to form the shell of the pool.

[@kendalllyons3554]

Any idea what a pool like this would cost in northern California?

[@Inyopools]

Kendall, you would have to contact a local swimming pool builder in your area to get an estimate. In the meantime, you can check out our blog of 93 real-world examples of swimming pool costs. www.inyopools.com/Blog/how-much-does-a-pool-cost-90-real-world-examples/

[@stephencapachione4107]

Stephen capachon.one Of the best nozzle men too ever shoot gunite to perfection made everyone's job the way it should be done right

[@tossupilv]

Where can I find information about the roofing panels around the pool ?

[@Inyopools]

Do you mean the pool enclosure? You can google manufacturers and installers for those.

[@emmaanderson7116]

how much did i cost altogether?

[@Lizzyslist]

Interesting video. Thanks for sharing. I would have liked a day count in your info banner. But liked it anyway and my question of how long it took was answered below. Cheers

[@Inyopools]

Great idea about adding a day count. We'll have to add that to the next timelapse pool build.

[@muhammadmekail3540]

Cost

[@kurohiuchiha4438]

how much money did it cost and take you to finish? and does having more people make the job easier or harder in this situation

[@s0raia]

Its amazing!

[@niopanificadora]

Con que la haz pintado?

[@kostassyggas1519]

Wow!!! Fantastic!!! How much cost to build all the construction ??

[@heartangelpiape3435]

i think its so expensive 😌😌😌

[@nationalcitysycho]

Pool alone I'm sure is about $30,000plus concrete I'd say about $50,000 plus the enclose pushin about$70,000. Our pool was $30k plus concrete on side which was bigger then this ..it came out to $38k I got a good deal. Cuz it was the co I worked for.

[@kostassyggas1519]

+Nationalcitysycho d Thank you very much!

[@jairojasso7793]

How much does something like this cost?

How much would this set you back?

[@Inyopools]

It depends on where you are in the country, but I think this cost 25-35K. If you are interested in different pool builds and their costs, take a look at our article where our customers submitted pictures of their own pools, their cost, and location. - MGS - www.inyopools.com/Blog/how-much-does-a-pool-cost-90-real-world-examples/

[@leoricdabs3222]

They work very fast the guys

[@scottydntno]

Leoric Dabs want the job done? Hire Mexicans. They get it done,fast and right the first time. They dont play. Lol

[@shanbashashanbashabasha391]

there are many places . why they are doing small swimming pool

[@grassrootsdancetheatreinc.7113]

now I like this technique

[@Mufes-hv5cz]

Having that much land makes projects so much easier bringing in rigs etc...with an excavator you can diy something like this for 80k as opposed to 190k

[@luzpagan333]

I want a pool but more small what the price ?

[@Inyopools]

Hi Luz, Swimming pool costs can vary depending on where you live. Check out this article (Linked below) that we've written showing the costs of 93 different swimming pools to get a general idea. We also encourage you to do a google search for pool builders in your area for a more accurate estimate. bit.ly/SwimmingPoolCosts

[@chrissignal8857]

Why such a secret? The pool in the video was probably about 80k🤗

[@chrissignal8857]

Those prices on the link you provided are wildly inaccurate according to prices here in Florida. Each one you can add 15-20k to the price.

[@thefuture8173]

Very different prices depending on what state you live in. Common sense buddy, use it.

[@mr.hauskatze6055]

very great Work. How much do you Pay for this Project? I come from Germany and I want to do the same in my Backyard

[@tayfunsaral5024]

thanks for the how to.. now i know how to do it

[@TheGamerPro191]

I can't believe they can build a pool in just 13 minuets?!?!? I'm Joking

[@sadtauruss]

Pereza1016 Gaming You are 1 big idiot.

[@charlesmosori9444]

Pereza1016 Gaming you are an idiot they didn't make that in 13 minutes it took them days it was speed up so how about you get a life and brain

[@mcgamer1308]

Charles Mosori bro chill he said I am just kidding your the stupid one

[@charlesmosori9444]

McGaMeR oh and BTW stutup stupid you need a life to.

[@staletv2100]

Charles Mosori watch your mouth lil boy. Your mommy might have issues with this potty talk.

[@checkpeck]

which place is this?

[@Inyopools]

This is a house in Eustis, FL.

[@FLOODOFSINS]

Cool video. How much money can you save by DIY versus buying it? I'd be happy to be part of the crew if and when I need a pool. I'm guessing most companies won't do that because of liabilities.

[@alyciaharrell4057]

Could they work just a little bit faster?

[@Inyopools]

They tried, but we ran out of Red Bull. - MGS

[@alyciaharrell4057]

Just kidding

[@jeproksbautista6600]

can you pls send me your website.? thanks.

Ou website is www.INYOPools.com

[@ahmedmohamedrifay6490]

Its amazing

[@salihgunaydn3885]

How much money

[@pascalbeck7200]

They should have added some tropicl plants to make a some what green house effect

[@Inyopools]

That would be a nice affect. Keep in mind with this type of open area backyard, plants and shrubbery can always be added later if the pool needs a little more personality..

[@ArmouredTigerZ]

How funny is it that people are debating whether this video is sped up or not?

[@wafflestraw8631]

how much did it cost? I would love to build it if it didn't cost too much ;P

[@shukorngadi602]

how buildsime swim pool

[@oceandrew]

You don't have to be rich. A new pool costs as much as a new car. The fancier the pool, like a car, the more it'll cost. Keep it simple and you save a bunch.

[@OhJohnnyb]

What a beautiful name. Eva. I will name my daughter Eva. Learn to serve and you will be served. Give your life and you will keep it. Seek out life with grace and give with passion, love with compassion, and listen with empathy. Remember that the goal is not riches, but wealth. Much love to you, go for it.

[@kennythepoo_]

John Stuart what?...

[@michelleneasha]

You don't have to be rich to build an inground pool just Dig a hole as big as you want it and pour done concrete in the sucker an fill it up.. you don't even have to have running water just let the rain water fill that sucker up an your good to go.. lol 😁

[@preliminarysculpture9972]

this is awesome

[@macelromano3122]

A-MA-ZING

[@Crazson34]

No rebar around the outside of the pool. There's going to be a pissed off homeowner when the concrete cracks.

[@damianpinon3690]

Crazson34 isn’t that what the expansion joints are for? I know the rebar reinforces the concrete but maybe that was a cost cut? Idk

[@thefuture8173]

Maybe you should pay a little more attention to the video, they did put rebar on walls of pool.

[@juliusfucik4011]

More than enough rebar. I would have put more in it too, just because of my German heritage

[@Smaze7]
