Difficult construction conditions, unreliable products, changing expectations, and poor coordination can turn otherwise promising aquatic projects into costly problems. Experience changes how contractors evaluate projects, choose manufacturers, manage risk, and decide which work they are willing to take on again.

Ep. 27

Highly customized residential water parks can quickly outgrow the plans, contracts, payment structures, and operating expectations established at the start of the project. Building an ambitious private aquatic facility requires more than a construction budget; you must address scope, responsibilities, payment terms, code requirements, and long-term maintenance early.

Ep. 26

An existing pool does not always have to be torn out to become a new facility. Phil, Robert, and the Myrtha Pools team discuss how modular construction can adapt to renovations, temporary venues, and high-level competition facilities.

The conversation starts with Myrtha’s approach to working with contractors and designers, then moves into its “pool within a pool” renovation system, which can use an existing concrete shell rather than replacing the entire structure.

The group also explains how Myrtha Pools have been used temporarily for major swimming events and later installed permanently in other facilities. That flexibility allows the same basic system to serve renovations, community pools, training facilities, and major competition venues.
