Swimming Pools
Report
Backyard Swimming Pools have been bringing together friends, neighbors and families for thousands of years. Most of you have wonderful childhood memories of cannon ball contests, water volleyball and diving for pennies but since that time swimming pools have come a long way. The days of "Kidney Bean Shaped" pools with three feet of concrete apron, inefficient loud pumps and chlorine pucks have been replaced with custom waterscapes incorporating natural stone patios & lush landscaping, custom glass tile & pebble finishes, web based automation, in-floor cleaning systems and architectural details like infinity edge and perimeter overflows that boggle the mind. In fact, todays pools can be completely run from from your computer or iPhone.
The most important part of installing a custom swimming pool is proper design, engineering and elevation. When determining the placement and balance of a pool, it is important to consider other architectural, landscaping and hardscaping elements including pool houses & cabanas, patios & decks, retaining walls, fencing and plantings. If a swimming pool is designed without taking the entire area into consideration, problems can arise including the need for retaining walls and drainage systems that were not originally budgeted or planned. Additionally, Frank Bowman Designs understands the demands of homeowners associations and happily supplies the drawings necessary to submit to homeowner and neighborhood associations.

Often considered "softscape", trees, shrubs, and flowering plants, are the outdoor elements that make your house a home. Functionality is the driving force behind strong landscaping design, followed by visual appeal.

My fiance and I were really excited to work with Frank he came to our house and spent hours with us discussing different options. He even invited my fiance over to his house to see his pool. He then said he would have a written design for us by that Thursday and he would then be on vacation until that next Monday. We never received the written design and two weeks later now he has never contacted us.
We have called, emailed, and text him with absolutely no response. We were ready to start our project ASAP and now we have to start over with a new company. The way he has treated us was very unprofessional and a complete waste of our time.

We had our pool installed by Frank Bowman Designs and were blown away by the level of expertise and craftsmanship that Frank personally gave to our project. He was always easy to reach and cam up with great ideas all the way through the project. We would recommend Frank and his company to anyone looking for a custom swimming pool.
