Plan a new pool around the way you want to use your property. Start with the layout, intended use, site access and written construction scope. AE offers new pool construction, not ongoing pool cleaning or maintenance.
Scope to discuss
- Describe the new pool you want to build, how it will be used and the outdoor space available.
- Review a property survey, proposed pool position, drainage and access for excavation equipment.
- Define the new pool construction scope, including which surrounding work and equipment selections are included.

Choices that shape the project
- Compare layout, dimensions and intended water depth before finalizing the design.
- Discuss the proposed pool equipment, its location and the electrical and plumbing work in the construction scope.
- Coordinate the new pool with decking, drainage, access paths and any separately scoped outdoor improvements.
Residential and commercial considerations
For a home
For a new home pool, consider everyday swimming, space for gathering, access from the house and the outdoor areas you want to retain.
For a commercial property
For a proposed commercial or shared pool, discuss intended use, project approvals, access and operational requirements before agreeing to a construction scope.

Prepare for an estimate
- Share the property survey, site photos and any concept drawings for the new pool.
- Describe your preferred layout, intended use, budget range and desired timing.
- Confirm design responsibilities, included construction stages, approvals, equipment, handover and exclusions in writing.
A written scope should make the included work, material selections, access arrangements and handling of unexpected conditions clear. Confirm scheduling and any applicable approvals for the actual project.

Questions to ask before work begins
Does AE offer pool cleaning or ongoing maintenance?
No. AE offers new pool construction. This page is for planning a new build, not booking a cleaning or maintenance visit.
What should I prepare before requesting a new pool estimate?
Provide site photos, your property survey if available, the intended pool use and any layout ideas. The estimate scope should identify design, approvals, access and construction responsibilities.
Will the new pool price include decking and other yard work?
Only work expressly included in the written estimate should be assumed included. Discuss decking, drainage, fencing and landscaping separately so responsibilities and exclusions are clear.
Plan the work at your property
Discuss your Porter project with AE Pool Builders. Share the property address, photos and the work you need, then confirm the scope and service arrangements for that address. The map below provides business location details.
