01![Ravine House custom pool in Richmond Hill, Ontario]()
Etobicoke's older neighbourhoods have something most of Toronto does not: genuinely wide lots, and that width is what the design should exploit.
We take pride in working alongside trusted industry leaders. These affiliations keep our work aligned with the highest standards in construction, craftsmanship, and customer service.
The classic Etobicoke property is a post-war bungalow or a replacement build on a lot considerably wider than it is deep. That geometry suits a pool laid along the width of the yard rather than pushed to the back fence, with the deck running as a broad terrace across the house. Treating it like a narrow downtown lot wastes the one advantage the site has.
Properties along the Humber and its ravines are a different problem entirely, with slope, valley regulation and tree cover all shaping what is possible. Those constraints are established before the design is fixed, because on a ravine lot they frequently decide the pool's position outright.
Etobicoke is part of the City of Toronto, so pool enclosure permits, setbacks and mature-tree protections follow the city's rules. And because many of these homes are being renovated or replaced when the pool goes in, coordinating the two builds is usually worth more than doing either one perfectly on its own.

Usually one laid along the width of the yard with a broad terrace across the back of the house, rather than a pool pushed to the rear fence. It uses the lot's proportions instead of fighting them.
Yes. Etobicoke is part of the City of Toronto, so the pool enclosure permit, fencing and setback requirements are the city's.
Rarely. Designing them together settles grades, drainage and sightlines while the drawings are still flexible, and it avoids tearing up finished work to run services.
We don't publish prices or ranges, because a concrete pool is priced by the property: access, grade, soil, structure and the scope of the landscaping all move the number. We come out and look at the site first, then put a firm quote in writing.
Most of our projects run a single season, from design to first swim. Design, engineering and permits come first, then excavation, steel, plumbing, gunite, finishes and landscaping. Small senior crews and a schedule we commit to are what keep that timeline realistic.
