Dana Point

Werth Builders has been designing and building custom pools, spa retrofits, outdoor kitchens, and full backyards for Dana Point homeowners since 1994.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pool and outdoor-living services do you offer in Dana Point?

Werth Builders handles every step of Dana Point backyard work under one roof: custom pool builders, pool remodeling, pool resurfacing, pool decking, spa builders, and outdoor kitchen builders. Whether you’re starting from a bare yard or modernising a 1970s pool, one contractor manages the whole project from design through final fill.

Which Dana Point neighborhoods have you built in?

We work across Dana Point — including Monarch Beach, Monarch Bay, Ritz Cove, The Strand at Headlands, Niguel Shores, Lantern District and more. Each neighborhood has its own conditions: salt-air load, hillside grading, lot access, soil profile, and HOA standards. After 30+ years here we know what each one demands and price the realities into the quote up front.

Do I need a permit or HOA approval for Dana Point pool work?

Almost every Dana Point pool sits inside the California Coastal Zone, so most projects require a Coastal Development Permit (CDP) on top of a standard City of Dana Point building permit. We prepare CDP packages in-house — including setback, viewshed, and drainage documentation — and tell you straight when a CDP isn’t required (purely cosmetic resurfaces and same-footprint deck replacements usually aren’t). Many Dana Point neighborhoods also maintain architectural review committees with finish, tile, coping, and material approval requirements. We prepare HOA submittal packages as part of our standard process.

How much does a pool project cost in Dana Point?

Pricing varies widely by scope. Typical Dana Point ranges: a custom new pool build runs $80,000–$200,000+, a full pool remodel runs $30,000–$90,000+, a resurface alone is $5,500–$26,000+, new pool decking is $12,000–$55,000, a custom in-ground spa is $20,000–$50,000, and an outdoor kitchen is $8,000–$80,000+. We give every Dana Point client a fixed, itemized line-item quote — no allowances, no surprise change orders.

How long does a pool project take in Dana Point?

On-site timelines: new pool build 5–6 weeks dig-to-water (plus 4–8 weeks of design and permits before breaking ground), full remodel 2–6 weeks, resurface 7–14 days, decking 7–21 days, spa 4–8 weeks, outdoor kitchen 4–10 weeks. CDP and HOA review windows run separately ahead of construction where they apply.
