Before excavation, after the pool footprint is staked. That leaves time to grind stumps and let the builder use the pad without roots in the hole.
Stake first, cut second
Guessing from a brochure layout drops the wrong pine. Walk the stakes with us and the pool salesperson if you can.
Stumps are part of the pad
A flush cut is not a pad. Grinding or extraction should be in the tree quote if the shell sits there.
Access for two trades
Leave a lane the excavator can use. Do not park a wood pile on the future coping.
Our stop line
We do not build pools or maintain yards. We deliver a clear envelope and a tidy work area.
