POOLS 
Throughout the years of our business life we have built many pools ranging from large 
swimming pools to the tiniest garden pool. Into each of them we have built good design, 
and quality, which in turn results in permanency. In the construction of pools there is no 
place for poor workmanship or cheap materials, for their presence will soon be shown by 
winter freezing. The pool must be set on a good base of cinders or gravel at least eight 
inches thick, and a six-inch fill of the same material used around all sides. The concrete 
should be thoroughly tamped as it is poured, and reinforced with wire mesh or reinforcing 
rods depending upon the size of the pool. As the concrete dries it should be covered with 
wet burlap or straw and allowed to season thoroughly. We would be pleased to have the 
opportunity of submitting a design and estimate for your pool.
