Sunset Beach

Werth Builders has been designing and building custom plunge pools, compact spas, rooftop builds, and outdoor kitchens for Sunset Beach homeowners since 1994 — through the pre-2011 unincorporated era and now under the City of Huntington Beach Sunset Beach Specific Plan. We know the narrow lots, the Coastal Zone permitting, and the marine-grade construction these beach blocks demand.

We design plunge pools, spillover spas, and rooftop spas that fit these blocks beautifully, and prepare Coastal Development Permits whether the project routes through HB Community Development under the certified LCP or through the California Coastal Commission.

Frequently Asked Questions

What pool and outdoor-living services do you offer in Sunset Beach?

Werth Builders handles every step of Sunset Beach 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 Sunset Beach neighborhoods have you built in?

We work across Sunset Beach — including Beach blocks (S. Pacific Ave + N. Pacific Ave), Greenbelt district, Sunset Island, PCH corridor. 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 Sunset Beach pool work?

Almost every Sunset Beach pool sits inside the California Coastal Zone, so most projects require a Coastal Development Permit (CDP) on top of a standard City of Huntington Beach 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).

How much does a pool project cost in Sunset Beach?

Pricing varies widely by scope. Typical Sunset Beach 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 Sunset Beach client a fixed, itemized line-item quote — no allowances, no surprise change orders.

How long does a pool project take in Sunset Beach?

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.
