What happens here
The process begins with the delivery of the large, pre-fabricated fiberglass pool shell on a specialized flatbed trailer. Upon arrival at the installation site, a team of professional installers inspects the pool for any damage, scratches, or imperfections while it is still on the trailer. This visual inspection ensures the pool meets quality standards before it is moved into the prepared excavation. Simultaneously, heavy equipment such as a large excavator, and dump trucks for gravel delivery, arrive at the site to facilitate the installation. The excavator is prepared by attaching a spreader bar to its bucket using heavy chains or straps. The spreader bar is crucial for safely lifting and balancing the large pool shell.
Goal: Prepare the site and inspect the delivered pool shell
