Blue Tree Outdoor Living was founded in 1983. Jeff Mattiola joined the company in 1989 and has overseen Blue Tree's pool construction work for 15 years. This page reflects how Blue Tree evaluates the property, compares pool types, coordinates the complete yard, and prepares owners for construction.
Every Blue Tree Outdoor Living pool starts as a 3D design, so you can walk through your finished backyard before construction begins.
Blue tree installed our pool and decking. They did a great job and were always available for our questions or to explain the process. Would recommend them to anyone considering a pool.
Blue Tree Landscaping did a beautiful job enhancing our pool area. We met the team on several occasions before work started so they knew exactly what we wanted and needed. The work crew, including Jose Z, Javier, and Blake were timely, professional, and definitely left our pool and yard area much better than they found it. Very happy with our early spring improvements!
Truly an excellent experience working with blue tree. Have used them several times now. Pool, landscaping, and now a beautiful stone patio. Strongly recommend

A custom inground pool alone typically falls in the $75,000 to $200,000+ range. Complete backyard projects that combine the pool with landscape and hardscape work typically range from $150,000 to $400,000+. Size, finish, equipment, access, site conditions, and surrounding features shape the final proposal.
Yes. Blue Tree Outdoor Living offers financing on pool projects through established home improvement and pool lending partners, so you can spread the investment over time rather than paying for the full project upfront. Rates and terms depend on the lender and your qualifications. Visit the Blue Tree financing page to review options and apply.
Timing depends on the pool type, design, permitting, weather, access, inspections, and site conditions. Blue Tree provides a project-specific schedule after evaluating the property and confirming scope. Full backyard projects may take longer because pool, landscape, and hardscape work are coordinated as one plan.
Blue Tree Outdoor Living builds both gunite and fiberglass pools. Gunite is sprayed concrete over a steel rebar frame and can be customized in shape, depth, and finish. Blue Tree's written warranty provides a lifetime structural warranty on the concrete pool shell for the original homeowner, subject to its stated conditions and exclusions. Fiberglass pools are pre-formed shells that can install faster and offer a smooth, low-maintenance finish. Blue Tree helps you compare the options for your yard. Blue Tree does not build vinyl liner pools.
Pool projects commonly require municipal permits and may also involve zoning, setback, barrier, electrical, engineering, or stormwater requirements. The exact approvals depend on the property and applicable authority. Blue Tree coordinates the requirements included in your project scope and confirms any homeowner responsibilities before construction.
Blue Tree Outdoor Living installs Jandy pool equipment, made by Fluidra, including variable-speed pumps, heaters, filtration, and Wi-Fi automation through Jandy's iAquaLink system.

Blue Tree Outdoor Living can often phase a project to fit your priorities and budget, such as building the pool first and adding selected landscape, hardscape, or outdoor features later. Planning the whole yard up front helps each phase fit one coordinated design.
Pool excavation disrupts the yard, so Blue Tree Outdoor Living plans grading and restoration around the agreed project scope. Because Blue Tree builds pools, landscapes, and hardscapes under one roof, the surrounding area can also include patios, plantings, and other outdoor living features within one coordinated plan.
Blue Tree Outdoor Living designs the pool as part of the whole yard, not as a standalone feature. Pools, landscapes, and hardscapes are planned through one team, so the patio, plantings, retaining walls, and outdoor living spaces can be coordinated with the pool from the beginning.
Blue Tree Outdoor Living has served Southeastern PA since 1983 and coordinates pools, landscapes, and hardscapes through one team. That integrated approach keeps the pool and surrounding outdoor space within one design plan.

Pumps, heaters, filters, and other pool equipment are covered by the applicable Blue Tree workmanship and manufacturer terms. Blue Tree reviews the project-specific coverage before construction.

Blue Tree Outdoor Living builds both saltwater and traditional chlorine pools. Each uses chlorine for sanitation, but the equipment, routine care, water feel, and upfront cost differ. The team helps you compare both options based on your priorities, budget, and preferred maintenance routine.
Pool closing is tailored to the pool, equipment, cover, and seasonal conditions. It typically includes preparing the water, plumbing, and equipment for freezing weather and securing the cover. Blue Tree Outdoor Living offers pool closing and winterization through its Premier Outdoor Services team.
The right time to begin depends on design complexity, permitting, site conditions, and the current construction schedule. Starting the conversation well before your preferred swim season gives the team more room to coordinate design and approvals. Blue Tree will confirm current availability during your consultation.
