Pool renovation and construction in Cocoa Beach.

The water table is something you have to be careful with here. A lot of pools that were shot in wet conditions have their hydrostatic relief covered up. So when we drain a pool here, somebody confirms the relief is open and working before the water goes down, and we keep a core drill on standby to cut a new one if it is not.

What we see fail first on the island is a pool that was not built with enough concrete and rebar, sitting on soil that was not right underneath it. Those settle in one spot and crack. After that it is the equipment, because salt air rusts equipment out here in a way it does not inland.

There is nothing we would tell a Cocoa Beach homeowner that we would not tell somebody in Rockledge. Every pool can be made beautiful. You just have to be mindful of the geological circumstances.
