Transformations

Drag to see the before & after

A tired, empty yard on one side — a finished Ripple backyard on the other. Slide the handle to watch the change.

Before — bare backyard
After — Ripple build
Interactive demo placeholder — we'll drop in a real before/after from one of your builds.
Demo noteBefore/after sliders are consistently the single highest-converting element on pool-builder sites — nothing else sells a $60k transformation this fast. Send us one "day we dug" photo and the finished shot of the same yard and this becomes real.

The Ripple standard

Engineered concrete, built for the coast

Gunite is the strongest way to build a pool — a steel-reinforced concrete shell shot in place and cured hard, then finished by hand. Done right, it's the kind of pool your kids will still be swimming in decades from now, even through Grand Strand humidity, salt air, and storm season.

28-day
Proper gunite cure
We let the shell cure and hydrate the way it should — no rushing the one step that determines how long a pool lasts.
100%
Steel-reinforced shell
A full rebar cage under every pool, engineered and inspected before a drop of gunite is ever sprayed.
Lifetime
Structural shell warranty
The concrete shell is the bones of your pool — we stand behind it for the long haul.
Demo noteA lifetime structural-shell warranty is a near-universal promise among the Grand Strand's top concrete builders (The Pool Company, Clearwater, and others all lead with it) — homeowners now expect to see it. Confirm your exact warranty terms and we'll make this section factually yours; if the numbers differ, we'll swap them.

Financing that fits the backyard, not just the budget

A custom concrete pool is one of the best investments you can make in your home and your summers. With approved financing, you don't have to wait years to save for it — you can break ground this season and spread the cost into comfortable monthly payments.

Simple online pre-approval — a quick, soft-check application before you commit.
Terms built for pool projects — options designed for backyard renovations, not a generic card.
One point of contact — Adam and Alicia walk you through the numbers alongside the design.
Demo noteBuyers comparing $60k+ builds almost always filter for "financing available." Naming your lender (Lyon Financial, HFS, Paramount, etc.) and a real "as low as $X/month" figure here is one of the strongest conversion levers on the whole site. Tell us your financing partner and we'll wire in the exact terms.

See your pool before we ever break ground
Every Ripple project starts with a free design consultation — we listen to how you want to live outside, then map the pool, spa, decking, and features to your exact yard so you can picture it before a single shovel hits the dirt.
