OUR STORY

About Nic’s Pools

Nic’s Pools is a premier custom pool builder, delivering luxury and expertise to discerning homeowners and businesses. Behind every stunning project is Nic Oliva, whose career spans over 20 years of hands-on experience in the pool industry.

From the Ground Up: Nic’s Journey

Nic began in the construction industry at 17, working for a friend of his father’s, mixing concrete for only $40 a day. He put in hard labor—learning the ins and outs of every aspect of pool construction, from tile and coping work to plumbing and swimming pools, along with building footers and an array of other service work.

Nic’s dedication and passion for craftsmanship led him to become a certified subcontractor. He spent years refining his skills on a vast range of job sites, gaining an intimate understanding of what it takes to bring a pool from blueprint to reality.

Transition to Sales and Design

After mastering the technical side of pool building, Nic transitioned into sales and 3D pool design, combining his deep industry knowledge with a talent for creating tailored, high-end designs.

His experience in every stage of pool building, from concept to completion, eventually led to a leadership role in sales management. With this extensive background, Nic earned his state contractor’s license, allowing him to offer a full-service experience to clients through Nic’s Pools.

Nic knows pool construction inside and out—not from behind a desk, but by working directly in the field throughout his career, handling the planning, tools, and materials that go into building a top-tier pool customized to the client’s exact needs.

WHY CHOOSE NPC?

What sets Nic apart from larger, box-store pool companies is his firsthand knowledge of every aspect of pool construction. When you call Nic’s Pools, you don’t just get a salesperson—you get someone who has built and project-managed hundreds of pools.

Working with Nic means having a professional who understands every detail of your pool’s construction and design, overseeing the entire process himself.

Nic relies on a core group of trusted subcontractors, many of whom he built relationships with during his years as a subcontractor himself. These aren’t crews hired for the job—Nic has personally worked alongside these professionals in the field, which means he knows firsthand the level of skill, dedication, and craftsmanship they bring to every project.

Unlike larger companies that often cycle through various subcontractors for every job, Nic’s team remains consistent. The coordination and communication that come from years of experience working together help keep every phase of construction running smoothly and on schedule.

After navigating the usual hurdles with permitting and city approvals, everything about our pool build was smooth sailing. The entire team was outstanding from start to finish. The excavators were incredibly efficient and impressively nimble with their equipment, making quick work of a complex dig. Every crew that followed—tilers, gunite specialists, masons, plumbers, and electricians—was top-notch. Not only was the quality of work excellent, but every team member was pleasant, professional, and clearly took pride in their craft. The final result? Better than anything we could have imagined—truly Pinterest-worthy (and then some). The attention to detail shows in every tile, every stone, every feature. A special shoutout to **Nic**, who was a dream to work with. Always available, kind, patient, and constantly in communication to ensure everything stayed on track. Nic’s dedication and hands-on approach made the whole process feel personal and well-managed. We couldn’t be happier with the result and the journey to get there. Highly recommend this team to anyone dreaming of building their own backyard paradise!

Worked with Nic on a very large, complex and iconic project in Siesta Key. Our scope of work included the design, engineering and construction administration of the vessel so we were up close and personal with the execution, craftsmanship and quality control of Nic and his team. They knocked it out of the park for a very demanding project and client. I am confident Nic can execute and build any project at this point and have recommended him on multiple other jobs since and never had a problem. As a professional myself, having a network of professionals like Nic who can work together with you to get things done and to the highest standards is extremely valuable and not something you come by in this industry especially, ever day.

Nic built our pool in our new house and it turned out amazing. We receive so many compliments on our pool design. Nic was an absolute pleasure to work with. He’s reachable and always answered any questions with full details and transparency. This is very rare unfortunately these days. From day 1 to the last day to commission the pool he was there personally to make sure we were satisfied. We believe we made a friend in the process of building our pool. We highly recommend this company, Nic and his crew.

I recently had my pool completed by Nics Pool Construction, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! From start to finish, they demonstrated incredible reliability and professionalism. The quality of their work is truly amazing; my pool looks fantastic! Nic and Alex were a standout team. Whenever Nic wasn't available, Alex was right there to step in and answer any questions I had. Their communication and commitment to following through on their promises made the entire process smooth and enjoyable. I highly recommend Nics Pool Construction to anyone looking to have a pool built. You won't be disappointed!
