Site Assessment: Evaluate the proposed location for accessibility, soil conditions, and compliance with local regulations.

Design Finalization: Create detailed plans, including dimensions, features (like spas, waterfalls, lighting), and finishes.

Council Approval: Submit plans to local authorities for approval, ensuring compliance with zoning laws and safety standards.

Utility Checks: Verify the location of underground utilities to avoid conflicts during excavation.

Marking the Area: Outline the pool's dimensions on the ground.

Electrical: Lay conduits for lighting, pumps, and other electrical components.

Spraying Concrete: Apply a thick layer of shotcrete (sprayed concrete) over the reinforcement.

Curing: Allow the concrete to cure for 28 days to achieve optimal strength.

Tiling: Apply waterproof tiles to the pool's interior surfaces.

Coping: Install coping stones around the pool's edge.

Decking: Construct surrounding decks using materials like timber, stone, or pavers.

Landscaping: Plant vegetation and install features like fences, lighting, and water features.
