FROM THE KAHUNA

Aloha, Mt. Juliet. Come Relax by the Water.

Between you and your first swim there is one builder, not a chain of subcontractors. I sketch the design, you get one itemized quote, and our own crews build under experienced supervision. Mt. Juliet has grown faster than almost any town in Tennessee, and the cedar-glade limestone under it sits shallow enough to change how a swimming pool gets built.

OUR CRAFT

Pool Construction Services in Mt. Juliet, TN

Five ways to build, same crews, same standard.

Fiberglass Pools

Fiberglass pools arrive as a finished shell, so installation takes weeks and maintenance stays the lowest of anything we offer. Around here, most new pool conversations start with fiberglass.

Gunite Pools

Gunite is sculpted on site in any shape you can draw: a true custom pool with tanning ledges, a spa, and water features. In Mt. Juliet, gunite carries the biggest backyard visions.

Vinyl Liner Pools

A vinyl liner pool pairs a smooth, comfortable surface with the same build quality underneath. We build them for first pools and high-end homes alike.

ICF, Insulated and Efficient

Insulated concrete forms wrap the pool shell in continuous insulation: lower heating bills and a longer swim season. No other local company can offer ICF construction.

Outdoor Living Features

Grill islands, patios, fire pits, fire features, and outdoor kitchens: outdoor living designed with the pool so the backyard works as a single resort.

One Company, Start to Finish

Pool design, permits, excavation, installation, finish work: our own team handles everything. Your itemized quote is free, it comes before you sign, and that number is the number you pay. No surprise line items in fifty years.

The dig row matters most. A contractor who has never opened cedar-glade rock bids it wrong, and the overrun lands on you. We price it right the first time.

READ THE GROUND

Cedar Glades and Shallow Rock:
Excavating in Mt. Juliet, TN

Mt. Juliet sits square in the Central Basin, cedar-glade country where limestone bedrock can run just inches below the topsoil. A flat yard here can still hide solid ledge at the first bucket, and thin soil over rock changes how a shell is set, backfilled, and drained. Fifty years of digging in Middle Tennessee taught us to read the ground and price the rock before the bid, so the number you sign is the number you pay.

The Process, From First Sketch to First Swim

The process is simple on purpose.

1

Walk the yard.

The visit is free. I hear what you are looking for and tell you what your lot and ground can carry.

2

Design and quote.

I sketch the pool design, we make the material choices together, and you get an itemized number and a realistic project schedule.

3

We break ground.

A supervised crew digs, sets the shell or shoots the gunite, pressure-tests every line, and finishes each surface, with inspections before each new phase.

PAPERWORK, HANDLED

Permits, Fences, and Katie Beth’s Law in Mt. Juliet, TN

Mt. Juliet runs its own codes department, and we handle whichever desk your address answers to.

Inside city limits, the City of Mt. Juliet Planning and Codes Department issues the pool permit, and any pool holding more than 24 inches of water needs one.
Mt. Juliet’s newer subdivisions come platted with drainage easements and HOA design review, and addresses outside city limits answer to Wilson County instead. We route the drawings through the right desk.
Code requires a 48-inch self-latching barrier, and the pool cannot sit in an easement or within 5 feet of the house.
Katie Beth’s Law, the Tennessee pool alarm statute, has applied here since 2011, and the alarm must work at final inspection.
Bonding follows NEC Article 680.26 with a licensed electrician, under the 2024 International Residential Code. Our team pulls everything.

A Note From the Kahuna on Value and Experience

My name is Ernie Nagy, the Pool Kahuna, the licensed and insured TN builder behind these pools. Fifty years of building teaches you when to say no: no to a shell dropped on bad backfill, no to a pool your lot cannot hold. The best builders in this county have forty years behind them. I respect gray hair. I have more of it. The value of experience is not speed. It is knowing which corners break when they get cut.

Custom Pool Design, From Hand Sketch to Proven Shell Models

Your design starts with the yard, not a catalog. I sketch the swimming pool, the pool deck, the LED lighting, and the outdoor kitchen as a single picture, and we make the space work for your family. Fiberglass pools come in proven shapes from the shell manufacturers we build with, and I will recommend the options that fit. Gunite handles any shape you can dream up. What you imagined is exactly what you get.

If BRP will name its fiberglass shell manufacturers, replace “the shell manufacturers we build with” above with the real brands. Client decision.
