Year-Round Enjoyment
Customize Your Outdoor Living Space With a Soake® Pool
Nothing says luxury outdoor living like a backyard pool, but some homeowners are hesitant about installing one. Won't it take up too much space? Do we really want something we can only use in the summer? Will my backyard turn into a construction zone for months?
Maybe a traditional pool isn't the answer. Instead, meet the Soake Pool, the small, precast plunge pool that's built according to your preferences and arrives at your property ready to install. Cool in the summer and warm in the winter, your Soake Pool offers year-round enjoyment while taking up less space in your yard than a traditional pool. For many homeowners, it's the ideal space-saving pool solution.
Local Roots Landscaping is proud to offer Soake Pool installation among our full range of landscaping services. We specialize in outdoor living solutions that include decks and patios, seating and retaining walls, outdoor kitchens, fire and water features, and more, each feature carefully designed to match your lifestyle and flow with your existing architecture.
We've worked in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area for years, and we've built a reputation for being highly professional and easy to work with. With a dedicated crew and project manager, efficient communication, and a 5-year warranty, we're committed to your complete satisfaction.

The Benefits of Adding a Soake Pool to Your Property
This is not your average pool. Pre-cast from the highest quality concrete in an NPCA certified plant, your Soake Pool offers all the fun and enjoyment of a traditional pool along with a number of other advantages:
- Quick, Versatile Installation: Since it's delivered fully finished, your Soake Pool installation can be completed in days. You can choose to install your pool above ground, partially recessed, or fully recessed.
- Highly Customizable: Choose from three sizes to best fit your space, a variety of custom tile options for the inside of the pool, and a number of materials, including rock, slate, or tile, for the exposed outer walls to match the aesthetic of your outdoor living area.
- Cost-Effective: The cast-formed manufacturing process and smaller size make it less expensive (and less time-consuming) than building a pool on-site.
- Simplified Maintenance: Soake Pools use saltwater for a number of reasons: enjoy the therapeutic effects of saltwater soaking and use fewer chemicals to maintain a clean, sanitary pool.
- Health Benefits: Enjoy the sunshine and fresh air as you soak in your plunge pool. The water can help you relax, aid in muscle recovery, or give you a place for low-impact exercise.
- Year-Round Use: Soake Pools are warm in the winter and cool in the summer, giving you a pool and hot tub in one!
- Lockable Covers: The lockable covers are available in various styles for peace of mind that's aesthetically pleasing. Depending upon the regulations in your area, these covers may eliminate the need to build a fence around the pool.
- Environmentally Friendly and Energy Efficient: The smaller size and the use of saltwater means your pool requires less water and fewer chemicals, making it an environmentally responsible choice for a pool.
- Spend More Time Outside: Your Soake Pool gives you another option when it comes to backyard recreation and encourages you to spend more time enjoying the outdoors.
- Increase Your Property Value: A well-designed outdoor living area with a pool can increase the value of your home when you decide to sell. In the meantime, it enhances the quality of the time you spend outside with your friends and family.
It's time to reimagine what it means to add a pool to your home. Contact us for more information about Soake Pools and how we can design an outdoor living oasis that includes all the features you've been dreaming of.
