We have a nice house and nice pool, but: we are thinking about filling the pool with gravel and dirt and putting grass on top of it. I now am familiar with the LA Dep't of Building and Safety regulations on this, and they do allow this (many people have done it in the past year or so). I would like to find someone experienced and good at this. Thank you.

Pool Spas
If you are looking to install an in-ground spa on your property, there are two ways you can decide on a spa design and style for your pool spa. You can either look at available spa designs and options, and then make a decision, or you can hire a spa contractor and leave the decision to him. It's best if you take the time to educate yourself on spa designs, spa costs and other aspects of spa construction, and make a choice for yourself. This way, you will end up with a pool spa that suits the needs of your life style. Generally, in-ground spas are installed at the time of installation of the in-ground pool. These spas are installed close to the main pool or right next to it to make access easier. Common materials used in pool spa construction include thermoplastic, fiberglass and acrylic. You can also choose a number of smooth and tiled finishes. If you are considering an in-ground spa without a pool, then you should know that your spa installation will involve extensive excavation and trenching. Also, spas have different requirements for water movement, sanitation and heat than pools. All these requirements will have to be met before construction.
A spa construction should be looked at as a major home improvement project, and you must hire a qualified pool spa contractor only after intense scrutiny. Always compare estimates from more than one spa contractor before you make a decision. This allows you to get a fair idea of what you can expect to pay for your spa construction, besides allowing you to compare the contractor's experience. A prospective contractor should be able to provide samples from his port folio, as well as provide references. Call theses references, and ask them if the project was completed within budget and on time? How did he undertake the cleaning up of the work area? Was he easy to work with?
Before you hire a spa contractor and begin looking through his spa designs, make sure that you verify the company's credentials in the spa business. Look for a company that has been in the business for a number of years, and ask for a portfolio of completed spa projects that he has executed. Make sure that you screen more than one contractor, so you have a good feel for prices and quality of work. Finally, insist on a written contract that contains a complete description of the spa construction project, the cost of the project, a schedule for payment, start and completion date, as well as a clause that requires the spa contractor to take care of obtaining all the permits necessary.
