Respect the architecture

A formal pool, a restrained material palette or a planted courtyard should feel at home beside the building. We study alignments, proportions and views before choosing the details that bring the landscape together.

Rework the whole backyard

Changing a pool can unlock space for dining, lounging or a better connection to the house. We evaluate the existing pool and utilities before comparing remodeling and rebuilding options.

Planning your Beverly Hills project

Requirements depend on the property, jurisdiction and scope. We begin with a site visit, then coordinate the relevant agency review and required submittals as the project develops.

Confirm the city boundary
For properties inside the City of Beverly Hills, its Planning Division and Permit Center guide review. We confirm jurisdiction using the actual property address.
Layout and approvals
Pool and equipment placement, walls, outdoor structures and landscape changes are reviewed against the standards that apply to the parcel and scope.
Construction logistics
We plan access, material deliveries and work sequencing with the city requirements and the surrounding homes in mind.
Pool safety (statewide)
When a building permit is issued for a new pool or spa, or to remodel one, at a single-family home, California generally requires at least two qualifying drowning-prevention features. Some two-feature combinations are prohibited, and local rules can add requirements. A qualifying locking safety cover provides a statutory exception for a hot tub or spa. We confirm the applicable combination and any exception with the permitting authority. Source ↗
Pool heating energy rules (statewide)
Since January 1, 2026, new pool heating installations must generally use a qualifying primary heat source, such as a heat pump or solar, under California’s 2025 Title 24 energy standards. Read our pool energy code FAQs.
Water-efficient landscapes (statewide)
New landscapes of 500 square feet or more, or rehabilitated landscapes of 2,500 square feet or more, that need a building permit, plan check or design review must meet California’s Model Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance (MWELO) or the local version of it. Source ↗

Do you build pools and landscapes in Beverly Hills?

Yes. We serve Beverly Hills with custom pool and spa construction, structural pool remodeling and complete landscape projects. We coordinate outdoor living, planting, paving, lighting and drainage around the architecture of the home. City jurisdiction is checked against the actual address, since a Beverly Hills mailing address does not always mean a property is inside the incorporated city.

Sources and local agencies

Local requirements can change. We review the current rules for the property address and proposed scope.
