About Calm Water Pools

Serving the DMV Region Since 2008

Welcome to Calm Water Pools, where the dream of a perfect backyard oasis meets the precision of expert guidance. For over 17 years, we have served homeowners throughout Maryland, Washington D.C., Northern Virginia, and nearby areas of West Virginia across the region. Today we offer full fiberglass pool installation, pool removal and replacement, and premium fiberglass pool shells — so whether you want a new pool built start to finish, an old pool removed and replaced, or simply a quality shell for your own project, we make the path to your finished pool clear from day one. 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 and honest guidance in every pool project. 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 consultant who could offer both technical excellence and personal accessibility. Since our incorporation in 2008, we have developed deep familiarity with the geological conditions, permitting requirements, and zoning considerations unique to the Mid-Atlantic region—knowledge that helps our clients ask the right questions and hire the right people.

What We Offer Calm Water Pools offers three services. Want a turnkey pool? We provide full fiberglass pool installation — from design and shell selection through a finished, ready-to-swim pool. Need an old pool gone? We offer pool removal and replacement. Building it yourself or working with your own contractor? We supply the right Latham fiberglass shell and get it to your site. Whatever your project, we help you choose the right product and see it through with clarity and integrity.

Fiberglass Shells Manufactured by Latham Pool Products The fiberglass pool shells we help homeowners select and procure are manufactured by Latham Pool Products—the largest manufacturer of in-ground residential swimming pools in North America. Latham shells offer:

  • Advanced Composite Technology: Shells built with carbon-fiber reinforcement and ceramic-infused resins.
  • Crystite® Color Technology: Stunning, fade-resistant finishes that mimic natural granite and stone.
  • Structural and Surface Warranties: Latham pool shells are backed by 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 is the same: to help you get the right pool — installed start to finish, removed and replaced, or supplied as a shell for your own build — with clarity and integrity. We invite you to explore the Latham catalog, view our portfolio, and discover why hundreds of families in Maryland, Washington D.C., and Northern Virginia have trusted Calm Water Pools to guide their projects.
