Pool Installation in Lawrence

Lawrence is a college town with a year-round calendar of family reunions, alumni weekends, football Saturdays, graduations, and kids home from school, and a backyard pool turns every one of those weekends into a better one than the one before it. In Lawrence, a home pool is where generations end up on the same afternoon — parents and kids and the neighbors' kids and the dog and the friend visiting from out of state and the cousin who drove over from the other side of Douglas County. Kansas City summers push past 90 degrees through most of June, July, and August, and a fiberglass pool in Lawrence is the centerpiece of the exact afternoons Lawrence family bought the house for in the first place. Ford Concrete is an authorized dealer for Kisol, Elegance by Kisol, and Exclusive Pools — three of the strongest factory-built fiberglass lines on the market — and we install the shell, plumb it, backfill it, and pour the concrete deck with the same crew that handles our commercial work along K-10. For Old West Lawrence, Alvamar, North Lawrence and the rest of Douglas County, that means one crew, one schedule, and a 15-year structural warranty that outlasts every cycle of kids coming through the university and moving on to the next chapter of their Lawrence lives.

Why Fiberglass in Lawrence

Built for Kansas City Clay Soil

Lawrence sits on the same Wymore-Ladoga clay the rest of the metro does, and the clay still moves the same way under a college-town yard as it does anywhere else in Douglas County. A factory-built fiberglass shell flexes with that seasonal shrink-swell movement instead of fighting it and cracking against it. We backfill to commercial spec — compacted structural lifts the same way we backfill foundations under our Lawrence commercial work — so the pool stays square and the concrete deck around it stays flat from year one to year fifteen and beyond.

Installed in Weeks, Not Months

Fiberglass in Lawrence runs four to eight weeks from the day we break ground to the day the first swim happens — fast enough that a family can sign the contract after spring break and have the pool fully commissioned and warranty-covered before the fall semester starts. A gunite job never fits that window; it eats the entire Lawrence summer before the shell is even watertight.

Lower Lifetime Cost

The lifetime math on Lawrence fiberglass pool comes out well ahead of gunite because the factory shell does not need replastering at year twelve and the smooth non-porous gelcoat surface uses meaningfully less chlorine week to week through a full Kansas City summer. Over the fifteen years of warranty coverage, that is real money saved — thousands of dollars in avoided replastering plus steady weekly savings on chemicals the Lawrence family simply never has to buy.

Pool Installation FAQs — Lawrence, KS

What is the best pool size for a typical Lawrence backyard?
For most Lawrence yards on a quarter-acre to a half-acre, a shell in the 14-by-28 to 16-by-32 range is the sweet spot — big enough to swim a real lap, small enough to leave room for a generous deck and a seating area. On tighter lots, the Kisol Slim and Sole lines drop to 10-by-20 without losing depth. On larger Lawrence properties, models like Spazio, Master, and Mediterranea stretch past 32 feet.
Can you install a pool in Lawrence's clay soil?
Yes — fiberglass is actually the right choice for Lawrence clay. Kansas City's Wymore-Ladoga clay has a high shrink-swell rating, and a fiberglass shell has a small amount of structural flex that lets it live with seasonal movement rather than fight it. We compact structural fill around the shell in lifts the same way we backfill commercial foundations. That is why our pool installations do not settle or heave.
What pool models fit a small backyard in Lawrence?
For a compact Lawrence backyard, the Kisol Slim and Slim Spa are purpose-built for narrow footprints — full depth, 10 to 26 foot lengths. The Sole line and the Exclusive Piazza Spa are strong compact choices. The Elegance Diamond and Retrô corner models fit into tight corners where a rectangular pool would waste space.
Does Ford Concrete pour the pool deck too?
Yes — and that is the single biggest reason Lawrence homeowners hire us over a pool-only company. Our same crew that sets your shell pours the concrete deck, whether you want a standard broom finish, stamped concrete, stained concrete, or an integral color. See the pool decks page and the stamped concrete page.
What is the warranty on a Kisol fiberglass pool?
Every Kisol, Elegance by Kisol, and Exclusive Pools shell we install in Lawrence carries a 15-year structural warranty from the manufacturer. That covers the shell itself against structural defects. Ford Concrete backs the installation workmanship — excavation, backfill, plumbing, deck, and startup — on top of the manufacturer warranty.
