Fetter did an amazing job building my dad’s pool. They answered all his questions thoroughly and explained to him in detail step by step of the process. The workers are very professional and knowledgeable, they put his worries to ease. The pool itself is so beautiful, my parents love it! 10/10 I’d recommend them!

Four years in and this pool still delivers on every promise made at the start. From the first consultation through swim day, the process was smooth and the crew was great to work with. They built exactly what we envisioned — the right shape, the right features, and a bubbler the kids love. When our pool light went out years later, they replaced it at no charge with a smile. Best decision we ever made.

My wife and I are very happy we went with Ultimate pools by Fetter for our pool. We talked to a couple of other companies and were impressed by Fetter because they didn’t try to talk us into anything we didn’t want. They were patient with us during our design phase as we started out wanting a spa and water feature and then changing our minds to just getting a pool. At no time did they try to talk us into into getting a particular pebble finish or plaster finish for the interior. Ross was straight forward about what he thought would work best for us and told us the pros and cons for every decision we made. He was great at explaining the process and what to expect each step of the way. Once the pool was complete, they have been great at answering all of our questions about pool chemistry too! We would definitely recommend using them to put in your pool! We went with a French Gray plaster and love the way the water color turned out.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the site assessment work for a Copperopolis pool design? +
Fetter visits the property before the design is finalized, evaluates visible surface rock and ground conditions, reviews slope and drainage patterns, and paints out the full pool and deck layout at scale on the actual site. This lets homeowners see the design in context and gives Fetter the site-specific information needed to plan excavation and structure accurately before construction begins.
How does slope affect pool design in Copperopolis? +
Slope affects pool orientation, deck drainage design, and often requires retaining walls to create a level pool area and deck surface. The design must account for how water moves off the deck and away from the shell during rain events, and retaining walls need to be engineered for the loads they’ll carry from surrounding soil. Fetter incorporates all of this into the design based on the specific topography of each property.
Can a soil survey help before designing a pool in Copperopolis? +
Yes, for properties with significant rock formations, unusual topography, or questions about subsurface conditions, a soil survey provides information that sharpens the excavation plan and structural design. Fetter evaluates whether a survey is warranted for each Copperopolis property during the site assessment.
Does rock in the ground affect pool shape options in Copperopolis? +
Rock can constrain where a pool can be positioned and in some cases what shapes are practical, particularly on smaller lots with heavy subsurface rock. Fetter’s site assessment identifies the realistic design envelope for each property so the design that gets permitted and built is one that the site can actually accommodate.
Is the Calaveras County permit process complicated for pool design? +
No. Calaveras County’s process is relatively straightforward — both electronic and over-the-counter submission are available, processing runs approximately two weeks, and there are no city-level zoning overlays or mandatory HOA requirements for most Copperopolis properties. Fetter manages the county permit application on every project and designs to meet county code from the start.
