Saint-Nicolas · Chaudière-Appalaches · 2,100 pools installed

Your yard, four
seasons out of four.

The pool lasts from May to September. The spa, on the other hand, is best at −25°C, on a Thursday evening in February, with steam rising over the spruce trees. We install and maintain both.

The pools

Installed price · construction time
01

Shotcrete in-ground pool

5 to 7 weeks on site

Free-form shape, custom depth and stairs, quartz or ceramic finish. The most durable option, and the longest to build.

from $95,000
02

Fiberglass in-ground pool

2 to 3 weeks on site

One-piece shell delivered by truck and set in a single day. Smooth surface, very low maintenance, 18 models from 12 to 40 feet.

from $62,000
03

Vinyl liner in-ground pool with steel structure

3 to 4 weeks on site

The best size-to-price ratio for an in-ground pool. Liner replaceable every 12 to 15 years, dimensions to the inch.

from $54,000
04

Semi in-ground pool

8 to 12 days on site

Buried on one side, with a deck on the other. Ideal on a sloped lot, where a full in-ground pool would cost double in excavation.

from $26,000
05

Above-ground pool

1 to 2 days to install

18, 21, 24 or 27 feet, resin or galvanized steel wall. Installed in one day on a leveled stone base that we prepare.

from $6,900

The spas

The purchase that earns its keep 12 months a year
Portable spa
4 to 8 seats · $8,500 to $19,000

Acrylic shell insulated for Quebec winters, massage jets, 4 kW heater, insulated cover. Plugs into a dedicated 240V. The size that fits 8 clients out of 10.

Swim spa
12 to 19 feet · $24,000 to $42,000

Year-round current swimming, with a hot spa section at the other end. For those who want to train without a pool — and without an off-season.

Wood-fired nordic bath
4 to 6 seats · $7,200 to $14,000

Cedar or spruce, submerged wood stove, no electricity required. Two hours to heat, a smell of woodsmoke, and the best evening of February.

The after-sales service is the real product

Selling a pool takes an hour. Keeping it running for twenty years is another matter. Our six technicians are our own employees, and the same team installs and repairs.

—Spring pool opening: cover removal, pump start-up, chemical rebalancing, first water analysis
—Fall closing: lowering the water level, full line purge, antifreeze, winter cover installation
—Weekly maintenance: brushing, vacuuming, skimmer basket, chemical adjustment, report left at the door
—Free in-store water analysis, with written recommendations — bring 500 ml of water taken 30 cm deep
—Liner repair and replacement, with on-site measuring and custom fabrication
—Replacement of pumps, filters, salt cells, heat pumps and spa control panels
—Leak detection: line pressure testing and location before digging anything
—Winter spa troubleshooting: 24-hour priority, because a frozen spa is hard to fix
—Annual spa maintenance contract: draining, shell cleaning, filter change, component check
Response time
48 h

In July, it's 3 to 5 business days — we'll tell you straight. A pool losing water or a frozen spa jumps the line, within 24 hours.

Regulations · we take care of it
In Quebec, every residential pool must be surrounded by a code-compliant enclosure (fence at least 1.2m high, self-closing and self-latching gate) and requires a municipal permit before work begins. We prepare the permit application, provide the site plan and install the compliant fence. No pool is filled before the enclosure is in place.

Booking · 2027 season

The installation calendar fills up by February.

An in-ground pool needs a permit, excavation and a 3-to-6-week window. Sign in February, and you'll be swimming in June. Sign in June, and you'll be swimming in August — whatever's left of it.

Spas are delivered year-round, in 3 to 5 weeks. December is our second busiest month.

Book your installation

We visit your yard, measure the access and electrical panel, and you get a total price — not a pool price with six lines to add.
