Taylors is an unincorporated community northeast of downtown Greenville, stretching out along Wade Hampton Boulevard toward Paris Mountain and Lake Robinson. Lots here are often larger and more wooded than the neighborhoods closer to the city, with some properties at an acre or more. That gives homeowners room to place a pool where it works best, and it also means tree roots, slopes and access routes need to be planned before construction starts.
Planning a Pool Around Trees, Slope and Access
On a wooded Taylors lot, the right pool location is usually a balance between sun, privacy and how far equipment has to travel. We walk the property, look at where water drains, which trees need to stay, and how an excavator and concrete truck will reach the backyard. From there we build a 3D design rendering so you can see the finished pool from the house and the back porch before you commit.
Gunite or Fiberglass in Taylors
Both work well here. A gunite pool is shaped on site, so it can step down a slope, wrap around a mature tree line or include a raised spa with a spillover. A fiberglass pool from the Tallman Pools collection arrives as a finished shell, which shortens the construction window and gives you a smooth, low-maintenance surface. We will walk you through cost, timeline and long-term maintenance for each so you can choose with real numbers in front of you.
Greenville County Permits
Because Taylors is not an incorporated city, residential pool permits are issued by Greenville County Building Safety and Code Enforcement. Swimming pools are on the county’s list of work that requires a permit. We prepare the plans, submit the application and coordinate the inspections from excavation through final.
