If you are looking for a custom inground pool in Cincinnati, Aquascapes Pools & Excavating builds both vinyl liner and fiberglass pools across Hamilton County and the greater Cincinnati metro. We are a family-owned, locally operated builder based just up the road in Morrow, Ohio, and unlike most pool companies, we keep every part of the job in-house — our own excavation crews, our own equipment, and our own labor. No subcontractors, no finger-pointing, no surprises.
Cincinnati is a big, varied market, from the historic neighborhoods near downtown to the sprawling suburbs on the east and west sides, and out toward the growing communities that ring Hamilton County. No two yards here are alike, and neither are the pools we build. Whatever corner of the city you call home, one crew handles your project from the first shovel of dirt to the day you jump in — and you always know exactly who is standing in your backyard.
We have spent 24+ years building pools in Southwest Ohio and have installed 100+ pools with 96 five-star reviews to show for it. We are licensed and insured, and because we offer both vinyl and fiberglass, we can honestly recommend what fits your yard and budget instead of selling you the only product we carry. Most Cincinnati competitors install fiberglass only — we let you compare.
Cincinnati lots are famous for their hills, clay soil, and older established yards with tight access between houses. Many builders quietly turn those projects down, or price them sky-high to cover a subcontractor's risk. Because our excavation is in-house, those challenges are our specialty rather than a reason to walk away. We handle permitting and know local requirements throughout Hamilton County and the surrounding communities, so the paperwork never lands on you and the timeline stays on track.
Every project is priced to the yard, the pool type, and the site work involved, so we do not quote one-size-fits-all numbers. Vinyl liner pools often start lower than fiberglass, but access, grading, and features all move the total. We will walk your property and give you a clear, honest estimate at no charge.
Both are great — it depends on your priorities. Fiberglass installs fast and stays smooth with low upkeep, while vinyl gives you more freedom on shape and size and a lower entry price. Since we build both, we will lay out the trade-offs plainly and let you decide.
Yes. We handle permitting and know the local requirements across Cincinnati and Hamilton County. You will not be chasing down city offices — that is part of our job.
Absolutely. Sloped and hillside lots are common around Cincinnati, and because we do our own excavation, retaining walls, and grade work, we build on sites other companies turn down.
