About Calm Water Pools
Building Backyard Legacies Since 2008
Welcome to Calm Water Pools, where the dream of a perfect backyard oasis meets the precision of expert craftsmanship. For over 17 years, we have served the Maryland, Washington D.C., and Virginia (DMV) region not just as pool builders, but as architects of lifestyle. We understand that a swimming pool is more than a fiberglass shell; it is the future setting for your family’s most cherished memories, from summer barbecues to quiet morning laps.
Our Roots and Leadership Calm Water Pools, LLC was founded on a simple principle: transparency in construction. The company is owned and operated by Larry Ruggeri, a veteran of the swimming pool industry who recognized a gap in the market for a builder who could offer both technical excellence and personal accessibility. Since our incorporation in 2008, we have navigated the unique geological and zoning challenges of the Mid-Atlantic region, giving us a depth of local knowledge that national chains cannot replicate.
The Calm Water Difference: A Dual-Path Approach We recognize that no two projects—and no two clients—are the same. That is why we have pioneered a flexible service model that caters to a diverse range of needs:
Full-Service Installation:Â For the homeowner who desires a turnkey experience, our team of swimming pool professionals manages every aspect of the project. From the initial layout and precision excavation to the final plumbing and backfill, we handle the logistics so you can focus on the excitement of your new pool.
DIY and Contractor Shell Packages: We offer direct-to-consumer fiberglass pool shells. We empower competent homeowners and landscape contractors to manage their own installations by supplying the industry’s best shells and equipment packages. We provide the product; you provide the vision and labor.
Official Latham Pools Representative Quality is non-negotiable. Calm Water Pools is proud to be an official representative of Latham, The Pool Company—the largest and most trusted manufacturer of in-ground residential swimming pools in North America. This partnership grants our clients access to:
Advanced Composite Technology:Â Shells built with carbon-fiber reinforcement and ceramic-infused resins.
Crystite® Color Technology: Stunning, fade-resistant finishes that mimic natural granite and stone.
Lifetime Warranties: We back our installations with Latham’s industry-leading structural and surface warranties.
Our Commitment to You Whether you are looking for the sleek lines of a modern “Astoria” rectangular pool with a built-in spa, or the organic curves of a “Bermuda” freeform design, our goal remains the same: to deliver a superior product with integrity. We invite you to explore our catalog, view our portfolio, and discover why hundreds of families in the DMV area have chosen Calm Water Pools to transform their homes.
