At Aquascapes Pools & Excavating, pool installation is what we do best. Whether you're envisioning a classic rectangular lap pool, a freeform oasis with waterfalls, or a sleek modern design with clean lines — we build it from the ground up with our own crew, no subcontractors.
We specialize in both vinyl liner and fiberglass pool installations, so we can match the right material to your budget, timeline, and lifestyle. Our team handles every step of the process, from initial site consultation and excavation and site grading to plumbing, electrical, decking prep, and final water fill.
Every Aquascapes pool installation starts with a full site assessment and a free consultation where we walk you through your options with zero pressure. From there, we handle custom pool design, full excavation and grading, pool shell installation, all plumbing and equipment setup, and a final walkthrough so you know exactly how to operate your new pool. We don't hand you a pool and disappear — we make sure you're completely confident before we leave the job site.
We also coordinate with any necessary permitting requirements in your area, so you don't have to navigate that process alone. Our team has worked across Southwest Ohio long enough to know what each county typically requires, and we'll make sure everything is squared away before we break ground.
Vinyl liner pools offer the most flexibility in shape and size, and are typically the most affordable option upfront. Liners can be replaced when needed, usually every 10–15 years, and you have a wide variety of patterns and colors to choose from. They're a great choice for homeowners who want a custom shape without a custom price tag.
Fiberglass pools are pre-manufactured shells that are set directly into your excavated site. They're smooth, algae-resistant, and require less chemical maintenance over time. Installation is generally faster, the surface is gentle on swimmers' skin and feet, and the long-term maintenance costs tend to be lower. If you want something low-maintenance and built to last, fiberglass is worth a serious look.
Not sure which is the better fit for your yard, budget, and lifestyle? Our guide to fiberglass vs. vinyl liner pools lays out the trade-offs, and we'll also walk you through both options side by side during your free consultation. No sales pressure — just honest information so you can make the right call for your family.
Most installations are completed within 4-8 weeks depending on pool size, site conditions, and weather. Fiberglass installations tend to move faster since the shell arrives pre-formed. Vinyl liner installs take a bit longer due to the custom wall and floor preparation. Either way, we keep you informed throughout the process so there are no surprises.

Costs vary with size, material, site conditions, and features, but vinyl liner pools generally start in the range of about $45,000–$65,000, while fiberglass pools often run from roughly $60,000 into the six figures for larger projects with decking and upgrades.

Most of our installations wrap up within 4–8 weeks, depending on pool size, weather, and site conditions. Fiberglass shells tend to go in faster than vinyl liner pools because they arrive pre-formed. We'll give you a realistic timeline before we break ground.
In most Southwest Ohio communities, yes — an inground pool requires a permit and inspections. We've worked across the region long enough to know what each county and township expects, and we handle the permitting coordination so you don't have to.
It depends on your budget, the shape you want, and how much maintenance you're comfortable with. Vinyl liners offer more custom shapes at a lower upfront cost, while fiberglass is lower-maintenance and quick to install. We'll walk you through both options honestly during your free consultation.

We specialize in both vinyl liner and fiberglass in-ground pools. Vinyl pools offer the most flexibility in shape and size and are typically more affordable upfront. Fiberglass pools install faster, require less chemical maintenance, and have a smooth surface that's easy on swimmers.
