San Diego Custom Pool Features
Custom pool features can bring a whole new dimension to your backyard pool. Our San Diego area pool company can add an array of beautiful focal points and features that allow you to enjoy a true custom pool experience. From something like a simple laminar to a more extravagant feature like a natural waterfall, the concept of moving water attracts attention and gets people talking. By incorporating water features into your poolscape, you’ll not only add an artistic element, but more depth and character, as well. From tanning ledges, grottos, sheer descents and more, the pool design experts at Padre Pools can help you select the right water feature that complements your swimming pool and backyard retreat.
When you work with Padre Pools, you get the best service throughout San Diego, from our Lakeside location. We also provide San Diego with pool remodeling services. Update your existing pool to the custom oasis you’ve dreamed about.
Waterfalls
Waterfalls make a classic addition to any pool style and are always popular with children. Our custom designed pool waterfalls offer endless design options – from natural rock waterfalls to flagstone waterfalls and spa spillovers.
Tanning Ledge or Baja Bench
Tanning Ledge: aka baja bench; a flat ledge typically located at the entrance of the pool. This tanning ledge is the perfect location for a lounge chair or the sun-worshipper who wants to avoid getting overheated from the sun or fully submerged while enjoying the pool.
Beach Entry
Beach-Entry: aka zero-entry pool; designed with an entry that gradually slopes from the deck into the water, like a natural beach. No stairs or ladders necessary to get in.
Bubblers
Bubblers are fun water features that spout up from shallow pool surfaces like steps and beach entries. When combined with the right aesthetic lighting, they can create striking centerpieces to a variety of swimming pool styles. When placed on a beach entry or tanning deck, they create a fun splash pad for small children and big kids alike.
Custom Carved Rock Work
Padre Pools creates beautiful Custom Carved Rock water features. Our in house team will design and create the perfect item for you. Our rock waterfalls, boulder creations, grottos and rock steps are second to none.
Grottos
Create a romantic getaway or a place for pirate’s treasure – in your own pool! A grotto uses rock & boulders (natural or man-made) to create a small cave where water runs-off, giving your pool an exotic, tropical element.
Pool Slides
Gone are the days of the unattractive plastic tube slide. Our custom built pool water slides are designed to accentuate your overall pool design while offering hours of pool fun. Each water slide is crafted to fit your pool’s shape with colors and materials that complement your coping and pool deck.
Sheer descents & Scuppers
A sheer descent or scupper is a straight, linear water feature that drops a clean, sheet of water into your pool. These water features create a soothing water sound with an elegant, majestic look.
Swim-up Bars
Swim-up bars are a great way to bring the fun of having a cocktail or food served to you in the pool because if you don’t have to get out why would you? These areas feature built-in bar stools made of stone, tile or precast finishes and a bar that can be adorned in glass tile or beads. The options are endless.
