Why fiberglass

Factory shell. Local install. Faster path to water.

A Latham shell leaves the plant finished, gelcoat already cured, so the finish does not depend on the weather when it goes in. A concrete pool is built and cured in your yard, which is why it takes longer to get to water.

We dig, set, plumb, deck and start it up. New installs only, no above-ground kits. The same office that answers the roofing phone answers this one.

Beyond the shell

Ledges, spas, financing, outdoor living

Tanning ledges for the shallow end that actually gets used. Fiberglass spas, classic or spillover, when warm water is part of the plan. Lyon Financial so funding and schedule move together.

Outdoor kitchens, patios, pergolas and fire features come from the same company on one schedule, with or without a pool.

What moves the number

Why two pools on the same street quote differently

The shell is the part you pick. These change what it costs to put in the ground.

Access

Excavator and crane have to reach the hole. A narrow side yard, a fence that comes down or an overhead service drop adds work.

What is under the grass

Clay, rock, old fill or a high water table change the base work, the least visible part of the build and the one that keeps the shell still for good.

Shell size and style

65 Latham styles, plunge to large rectangle. A molded tanning ledge or spa is chosen with the shell.

Decking and coping

How much hardscape surrounds the water, and in what material, is usually the biggest swing between two otherwise identical pools.

Permits and barrier

IRC-style barriers: a fence at least 48 inches, self-closing and self-latching gates, openings a small child cannot pass. Your address and HOA set the details.

Equipment and extras

Heating, automation, lighting and water features are priced as separate lines, so you see each cost and decide.

On the calendar, the dig and shell set are the short part. The permit, shell delivery from the plant and wet Mississippi clay set the date, and if weather or ground moves it, you hear it from us early.

None of that shows in a satellite photo, so the quote comes after a site visit. Bring your survey if you have one. Request a pool quote or call 601-724-4647.

FAQ

Common questions about our pool division

Are you pool builders or just a retailer?

We are installers. DC Pools & Spas is the pool division of Dickerson Contracting, installing genuine Latham fiberglass pools start to finish.

What pool companies near me actually self-perform the work?

Many companies sell a shell and hand the yard to a chain of subs. Our own crew handles dig, set, plumbing, deck and startup.

How many Latham models can I choose from?

We install 65 Latham shell styles, compact plunge to large family rectangle, and match model to yard on a site visit.

Do you install spas and tanning ledges?

Yes. Latham fiberglass spas, classic or spillover, and tanning ledges molded into the shells that offer them.

Can I finance a pool?

Pool financing is available through Lyon Financial for qualified homeowners. Apply against a written install quote.

Do you remodel existing concrete pools?

No. We install new Latham fiberglass pools and spas, plus the outdoor living around them.

Can the same crew build an outdoor kitchen?

Yes. Outdoor kitchens, patios, pergolas and fire features, on one schedule, with or without a pool.

How long does a fiberglass pool install take?

On-site work is the short part, with no concrete cure cycle. Permitting, shell lead time, weather and access set the calendar, and you get a schedule with the quote and updates when clay or storms move it.

What fence or barrier does Mississippi require for a pool?

Cities and counties here generally enforce IRC-style pool barriers: a fence at least 48 inches high, self-closing and self-latching gates that usually swing away from the pool, and openings a small child cannot slip through. Where the house is part of the barrier, door alarms or similar protection are often required. We confirm the rules for your address and HOA in the permit package.
