Inground pool installation in Clarington

Michael Durham Landscaping installs inground vinyl liner and fiberglass pools in Clarington, the easternmost municipality in Durham Region, including Bowmanville, Courtice, Newcastle and Orono. Every install starts with utility locates and a survey review, then excavation to design depth, a compacted stone base under the shell, and clean stone backfill placed in lifts to support the pool deck.

Clarington covers Bowmanville, Courtice, Newcastle and Orono, with a mix of urban subdivisions and larger rural properties where a pool is often part of a bigger backyard plan with interlock, fencing and new lawn. We serve all four communities.

We are a landscaping and hardscaping company, so the interlock pool surround, enclosure fencing, grading and fresh sod are part of the same project and the same itemized quote.

Process

How pool installation works in Clarington

Site visit and layout

We measure the yard, review your survey, confirm setbacks and pool enclosure requirements, and mark the pool footprint so you can see it before anything is dug.

Permit and utility locates

The pool enclosure permit is coordinated with the municipality, and Ontario Dig Authority (formerly Ontario One Call) locates are completed before the excavator arrives.

Excavation and base

Dug to design depth with a compacted stone bed under the shell. Spoil is hauled off site or reused for grading where it makes sense.

Shell, backfill and plumbing

The vinyl liner or fiberglass shell is set level, plumbing is run, and clean stone backfill is compacted in lifts to support the pool deck.

Surround, fence and sod

An interlock or concrete pool deck, enclosure fencing that meets the by-law, final grading and fresh sod.

Permits

Municipality of Clarington pool enclosure permit

The Municipality of Clarington requires a Pool Enclosure Permit before construction or excavation begins for any in-ground pool, above-ground pool or hot tub that will be 61 cm (24 in) or deeper.

Requirements are set by the Municipality of Clarington and can change. We confirm the current rules for your address during the site visit and coordinate the permit before excavation.
