Frequently Asked Questions
Before you start building your swimming pool and landscaping project in Orange County, California, check out some of the most frequently asked questions we receive from customers when deciding on the overall design of their pool and outdoor space.
How do I choose a good swimming pool contractor?
Checking credentials is a good place to start when selecting a pool builder. Request the phone number and physical address of the company, as well as the full name and phone number of the sales representative.
Additionally, find out how long they’ve been in business and how many swimming pools they installed in the previous year. Also, be sure to inquire about who is in charge of swimming pool construction and check the licensing and certification of everyone involved in the pool installation.
How much value does a pool add to a house?
California pools can increase the value of your home by about 7%, which is roughly $15,000 for a $220,000 home.
How long does it take to have a pool built?
Building inground pools typically take 8 to 12 weeks to complete. In some cases, it may take less or more time, depending on the process.
What are the stages of building a swimming pool?
Following the signing of your contract, you will receive a custom schedule as well as a detailed/customized plan for the construction of your pool. Followed by:
Step 1: Layout and design
Step 2: Excavation of the land
Step 3: Installing the steel
Step 4: Plumbing and electrical installation
Step 5: Shotcrete
Step 6: Installation of tile and decking
Step 7: Interior finishing
Step 8: Finishing touches
What is the life expectancy of an in-ground pool?
A well-maintained concrete pool should last for at least 50 years. In addition, a well-built in-ground concrete swimming pool should last a lifetime. The liner or finish on a pool, on the other hand, will wear out quickly, resulting in the need to resurface the area every 10 to 15 years.

Calimingo not only built us an AMAZING backyard Resort but a place that we can entertain our family & friends and make memories for years to come!! Every guest that visited our backyard is blown away by the transformation!!

I'm so happy I went with Calimingo. I got bids from several companies and as soon as I got Calimingo's bid, I knew I was going to hire them. It was super broken down and transparent, which helped me see what the other contractors were missing. My yard turned out better than I imagined it and I'm stoked to share it with my friends and family.

When I decided to get my backyard done, I knew it was going to be tough to find somebody to do it because I've been an artist for many years and I am pretty picky when it comes to getting things done on my house. I can't believe how lucky I am to have found Calimingo Pools.

Pretty incredible company. Can't thank Asia enough for all the hard work and coordination to get our project done. I can be a handful as a customer and I appreciate her patience and excellent communication throughout the entire project.

4.5 stars is very good, honest and realistic! We can recommend Calimingo primarily for their fine craftsmanship, customer service and commitment to their craft. Ours is a rare no pool yard that we enjoy for parties and games like cornhole or beersbee. Pics attached. My only advice is to know your contract line by line and compare it to your rendering.

Calimingo did such a great job with our pool project! They are truly a "soup to nuts" company with all the trades represented and working for them. Asia the project manager was stellar--- detail oriented, professional, high quality standards and prompt to meet all requests. We couldn't be happier with the outcome.
Robert N. from Yelp

Absolutely ecstatic about the outcome of the project done by the Calimingo team! This time around, we asked for an extra large outdoor fireplace. This not only serves as a bit of a retaining wall, but has the option for gas or wood burning fire! The fireplace was done in a very timely manner, and the staff was extremely communicative.

“You absolutely get what you pay for with Calimingo. The quality they put into their work is top notch.

“Called in to inquire about their services and Mike was excellent and patient . He took the time to answer my questions and was very polite during my conversation. Most construction companies dont seem to have experienced phone consultants that are patient and willing to help, Mike made me feel at ease and I am hopeful that we will hire them in the future. Thank you Mike for your great service , it seems to difficult to find nowadays!”

“It's rare these days to find a company that just cares about their customers the old fashion way and somehow at the same time they seem to be running it like a fortune 500 company. From beginning to end I was taken care of and handed off from One expert to the next from sales to design to the construction process and even educated on the care of my finished project when we were done. These guys are just a bunch of winners. Thank you so much to everyone at Calimingo Pools!”
