Pool Success Story in Temecula
How One Temecula Family Got Their Dream Pool in Harveston
For this Temecula family, the backyard was a patch of dry grass and an empty concrete slab that nobody used, especially in summer. Today it is where they spend most evenings and weekends. Here is how our team of Temecula pool installers helped them get there.
Their Vision
The homeowners wanted a place for their kids to swim after school and a backyard where they could host family on summer weekends without everyone crowding indoors. They had put the project off for years because of worries about cost, mess, and how long construction would take, especially with two young children at home.
Why They Chose SDS Luxury Landscapes
After speaking with three Temecula builders, the family chose SDS because of the 3D design, having one team for both the pool and the landscaping, and clear, upfront communication about pricing and schedule. Seeing the 3D rendering helped them decide on a larger tanning ledge for the kids and confirm that the pool would still leave room for a grass play area.
The Experience
Our team handled the City of Temecula permits and Harveston HOA approval, then kept the family updated through each stage, from excavation to plaster. Partway through the build, the homeowners asked to add a spa; the design team updated the plans and plumbing before the shell was poured, so the change didn’t cause delays. The crew also fenced off the work area every evening so the kids could still use the rest of the yard safely.
Life With Their New Pool
The finished backyard includes a spillover spa, a tanning ledge, color LED lighting, a gas fire pit, and drought-tolerant planting suited to Temecula’s hot, dry summers. Now the family swims after school most days from spring through fall, and hosts monthly get-togethers for extended family.
