Roswell grew up around a cotton mill in the 1830s, and its historic district, the Roswell Mill ruins along Vickery Creek, Bulloch Hall and Barrington Hall still define the city’s character. The Chattahoochee River forms Roswell’s southern boundary, and the city has more than 900 acres of parks. Homeowners here tend to care about how a new pool fits the property and its trees, not just the pool itself.
Tree Permits Come First in Roswell
Roswell requires a Tree Removal Permit for trees over three inches in diameter, and properties within 2,000 feet of the Chattahoochee have additional review through Planning and Zoning before any trees are removed. For a pool project, that means the location of the pool, equipment pad and excavation access route needs to be planned around the trees from the start. We walk the property, identify which trees are affected, and build the design and permit drawings with that in mind.
Pool Permits in the City of Roswell
Residential pool permits are handled by Roswell Community Development at City Hall on Hill Street. The city’s residential swimming pool plan review checklist references the 2024 International Swimming Pool and Spa Code. We prepare the plans, coordinate the tree permit and pool permit together and handle inspections through final.
Why Gunite Fits Roswell Properties
Because a gunite shell is formed on site, it can be shaped to fit between mature trees, stepped into a grade change or built with a raised spa that spills into the pool. You see the full design in a 3D rendering before construction begins, including how the pool looks from the house.
