Owning a pool in Georgia is a lifestyle — long summer seasons, warm spring afternoons, and mild fall evenings make outdoor living a true extension of the home. But Georgia’s climate, terrain, and environmental conditions also make pool ownership more complex here than in other parts of the country. Heavy pollen, intense sunlight, red-clay soil, sudden storms, and seasonal temperature swings require a pool that is engineered, not just installed.

That’s where Alison Pools comes in.

For decades, Alabama homeowners have chosen Alison Pools because we don’t just build pools — we build backyard experiences designed specifically for Georgia living. Every structure, every system, every water feature, and every finishing detail is engineered to perform in this environment.

Whether you’re building a dream pool from scratch or modernizing an outdated one, Alison Pools offers the most complete, detail-driven luxury pool services for Georgia homeowners.

Why Georgia Homeowners Trust Alison Pools?

Georgia Has Unique Pool Needs

A pool in Georgia must withstand:

Heavy red-clay soil movement
Intense UV exposure
High pollen levels in spring
Sudden temperature swings
Heavy rainfall & stormwater
Long, hot summers

A "template" pool doesn’t survive those conditions. Alison Pools designs pools that are:

Stronger
Smarter
Cleaner
Easier to maintain
More energy efficient
Built with higher structural integrity

Our philosophy is simple:
Start with engineering, design with intention, build with precision.

Custom 3D Pool Design for Georgia Backyards

Every Alison Pools project starts with a complete 3D design that visualizes your project exactly as it will appear in your yard. No guessing. No generic templates.

We map:

Sun exposure (critical for tanning ledges + energy efficiency)
Wind direction (important for water features + spillways)
Grade, slope & elevation (Georgia backyards vary dramatically)
Soil conditions
Drainage flow
Entry/exit points
Furniture zones
Outdoor living traffic patterns

Your design includes:

Pool layout
Depth profiles
Step & bench placement
Tanning ledges
Raised spas
Water features
Fire features
Lighting
Decking options
Finishes
Landscaping integration

This ensures you see your pool — before it’s ever built.

Structural Engineering Designed for Georgia Red Clay

Here’s the truth few pool builders talk about:
Georgia’s red clay can destroy a poorly engineered pool.

The soil expands when wet and contracts when dry — which puts stress on pool shells, decking, and plumbing. Alison Pools designs with:

✔ Reinforced beams

✔ Upgraded rebar grids

✔ Strategic over-excavation

✔ Gravel sub-base stabilization

✔ Proper drainage & runoff planning

✔ Spa & tanning ledge reinforcement

✔ Elevated equipment pad planning

This is why our pools remain structurally sound for decades, even on sloped or challenging lots.

We offer a fully engineered long-term investment.

Full Custom Pool Construction for Every Georgia Lifestyle

No two backyards — or families — are the same. That’s why Alison Pools specializes in completely custom pools, built to match your home’s architecture and your personal style.

Whether you want:

A modern geometric pool
A lagoon-style freeform retreat
A family-friendly recreation pool
A spa-focused relaxation pool
A luxury resort-style environment
A minimalist, architectural design

We build it with precision, engineering, and craftsmanship.

Below is a complete breakdown of what Alison Pools delivers for every homeowner we work with.

Luxury Spa Design: Personalized Relaxation for Georgia Evenings

Georgia homeowners love spas — not just for winter, but for cool spring nights, post-work relaxation, and weekend gatherings. Alison Pools builds spas with precision and comfort in mind.

Spa features you can choose from:

Therapy jet configurations
Raised spillways
Multi-level seating
Infinity edges
Underwater LED lighting
Smart automation
High-efficiency heating

You can heat it from your phone on the drive home or schedule it to warm up before sunset — a signature Alison Pools experience.

Tanning Ledges, Bubblers & Family-Friendly Water Zones

A tanning ledge (also called a Baja shelf, sun shelf, or tanning shelf) is one of the most desired modern pool features — especially for families.

Why Georgia homeowners love tanning ledges:

Perfect for lounging in shallow water
Ideal for toddlers under supervision
Great space for in-water furniture
Excellent location for bubblers & LED glow lights

Alison Pools reinforces every tanning ledge to prevent cracking and shifting — a common issue when built improperly on Georgia clay.

Statement Water Features: The Sound & Movement of a High-End Pool

Water features add theatrical beauty, movement, and sound to your backyard. Alison Pools designs each feature to complement the architecture of your pool and home.

Available features include:

Bubblers
Sheer descents
Rain curtains
Water walls
Spa spillovers
Scuppers
Fire + water bowls
Infinity edges
Deck jets

Our team also integrates lighting into water features so they glow beautifully at night — especially during summer evenings and fall gatherings.

Smart Pool Automation for Stress-Free Ownership

Georgia homeowners are rapidly adopting smart automation to simplify daily pool care — especially during pollen season and long summers. Alison Pools integrates automation into almost every system we design.

Automation can control:

Pumps
Lighting
Spas
Water features
Chemistry balance (pH + chlorine)
Salt cell output
Filtration schedules
Freeze protection
Pollen-mode cleaning

You can manage everything from your phone, whether you're at work, on vacation, or relaxing on the patio.

This convenience is why automation is now one of our highest-demand upgrades.

Premium Finishes: Quartz, Pebble, Tile & High-End Plaster

Your pool’s interior finish dramatically impacts aesthetics, durability, and long-term maintenance.

Alison Pools offers:

Quartz finishes
Pebble finishes
Mini-pebble stones
Exposed aggregate
High-performance plaster
Glass tile interiors
Mosaic tile art

Premium waterline tile options

Pebble and quartz finishes perform exceptionally well in Georgia due to their UV resistance, rich color tones, and long lifespan.

Your pool is only as beautiful as the space around it. That’s why Alison Pools includes premium material options for decking and coping.

Decking options:

Porcelain pavers
Travertine
