From Major Civil Construction to Creating Backyard Retreats
Every backyard pool installation benefits from decades of heavy construction experience, an eye for exceptional talent and the commitment to excellence that separates outstanding work from ordinary installations.
A Career Built on Excellence, Now Focused on Your Backyard
National Experience, Local Dedication
Our owner’s path to pool industry leadership spans 22 states and nearly every facet of civil contracting as an owner-operator. From sewer and road work to projects worth up to a billion dollars, the experience gained on major construction sites demanded precision and excellence. Those years working far from home on projects that would remain buried and unseen eventually led to an important decision: come home and create something beautiful that families could actually enjoy.
The transition to fiberglass pools wasn’t impulsive. It came after extensive research to find a product worthy of our reputation. Our extensive research led directly to Leisure Pools, a company that prioritizes creating superior products and excellent service. That alignment of values sealed the partnership.
After acquiring Backyard Pool and Patio from retiring owners who happened to be friends, we combined heavy construction expertise with the industry’s best fiberglass pools. Three years of phenomenal growth proves that central Illinois families appreciate the difference quality makes.
What Makes Us Different
Uncompromising Standards, Exceptional People
We sleep well at night knowing every pool we install represents one of the most structurally sound, beautiful fiberglass pools available. Our refusal to cut corners comes from decades of understanding that following the same proven steps every time produces superior results. This is actually the easiest job we’ve had since high school, not because pools are simple, but because our construction background makes complex projects feel manageable.
Our sales process, led by professionals who respect your time, makes the entire experience seamless. We maintain flexible scheduling, listen carefully to your vision, and focus exclusively on building something that will last a lifetime rather than maximizing profit on any single project.
Speed matters, but never at the expense of quality. Our efficiency improves with every installation, getting your pool operational quickly while maintaining the attention to detail that defines our work. We want customers to enjoy their pools with minimal maintenance hassle, and that starts with exceptional installation.
