Our Process: Where Design Meets Construction

At Alderland, we design and build pools around your vision and how you live. Every detail—layout, placement, and how it fits into your yard—all carefully considered.

Our process is built to give you clarity and momentum from the very beginning:

  • We start with an in-depth, three-hour design consultation where we explore your ideas, priorities, and the full potential of your backyard.

  • By the end of that first meeting, you’ll have a clear vision and a custom design taking shape on paper.

  • Within two weeks, we refine that design alongside a realistic working budget—so you know exactly what to expect.

  • In as little as six weeks, your project can be scheduled and moving forward into permitting.

When you’re making a significant investment in your property, design matters. A good design is what makes a space feel complete. We focus on balance and flow so everything works together—not just the pool.


The true measure of our work isn’t what we say — it’s what our clients experience.

“Wow! An amazing team. Between Don's decade's deep expertise in the field and Aaron's exemplary customer service, it's hard not to be a fan of Alder Landscaping. They really helped us think through our property's potential and provided us with a design that pulled out all the stops”.

“After 40 years the backyard and front yard were long overdue for a makeover. Don and his team at Alder Landscaping were incredible from start to finish. They communicated clearly at every stage, took our scattered ideas, and transformed the backyard into paradise. A special shoutout to Aaron, Israel, and Leo for all their hard work”.
