Swimming Pools in the Twin Cities

A pool is only as good as the space around it. We install fiberglass and vinyl pools and design the patio, landscape, and outdoor living that surround them, all as one integrated project.

Swimming Pools in the Twin Cities by Schifsky Companies in the Twin Cities

We coordinate the full scope so your pool, hardscape, and planting all work together. Many of our pool projects pair with retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, fire features, and putting greens for a complete backyard transformation.

Most pool buyers regret the parts around the pool, not the pool itself - the cramped deck, the leftover muddy yard, the landscaping that never got finished. Because we design the entire backyard as one project, you get a finished, cohesive space from day one, not a pool dropped into a construction site.

Why It Matters

We Design the Whole Backyard, Not Just the Pool

A pool is the centerpiece, but the patio, grading, plantings, and outdoor living are what make it a place you love. As a design-build company, we plan all of it together and show it to you in 3D before we dig, so the deck is the right size, the sightlines work, and the surrounding yard is finished and beautiful the day the water goes in.

How We Work

How Your Pool Project Comes Together

One accountable team coordinates every phase, so nothing falls through the cracks between trades.

Design the Whole Space

We design the pool, patio, landscape, and outdoor living together in 3D so you can see the finished backyard before we start.

Choose Your Pool

We help you select the right pool, low-maintenance fiberglass or a custom-shaped vinyl liner pool, to fit your yard, style, and budget.

Excavation & Set

Through Blaiser Pools and Legacy Pools, we handle excavation, set the pool, and coordinate plumbing and utilities.

Patio & Hardscape

We build the surrounding paver patio, retaining walls, and any fire or kitchen features as one continuous, properly-based surface.

Landscape & Finish

Grading, plantings, lighting, and the finishing touches that turn a pool and a yard into a true backyard resort.

FAQ

Common Swimming Pools Questions

Fiberglass vs. vinyl pool, which is better?
Fiberglass pools have a smooth, durable, low-maintenance surface and install quickly, though they come in set sizes and shapes. Vinyl-liner pools cost less up front and can be built to almost any shape or size, with the liner typically refreshed every 10 or so years. We install both through our trusted partners and help you weigh them against your yard, style, and budget.
How long does a pool project take?
The pool itself can go in relatively quickly, especially fiberglass, but a full backyard transformation including patio and landscape takes longer. We give you a realistic timeline up front and keep you updated through every phase.
Can you build the pool and the patio and landscape together?
Yes, that’s our whole approach. We design and build the pool, hardscape, outdoor living, and landscape as one coordinated project so you get a finished space, not a pool surrounded by an unfinished yard.
Who installs the actual pool?
Pools are installed through Blaiser Pools (our sister company, for fiberglass) and Legacy Pools (for vinyl), both Latham dealers, while our team designs and builds everything around the pool, patio, grading, walls, plantings, and lighting, as the accountable lead on your project.
