ROCK GROTTOS FOR SWIMMING POOLS & SPAS
OUR ADVANTAGE |
 |
Replications Unlimited custom builds life-like rock grotto formations to the exact size and dimensions of your needs. Our prefabricated waterfalls are made in our factory and are designed to mount to the existing decking so that no extra foundation support is required for installation. Unlike many of our competitor's products, our grottos aren't carved or sculpted. The grottos are made using our unique URESTONE rock technology that allows us to replicate the exact texture and details of real rock.

It all starts with the design. We work with you and/or your contractor to help create the look and feel that you have been dreaming of. This phase is based on a systematic 5 step process. |
DESIGN CRITERIA RESOURCES |

|
|
CHOOSE THE CONFIGURATION |
| There are several decisions that need to be made in determining how the grotto will look. First, it needs to be determined whether the grotto will be built over a swim-out or spa. Secondly, we need to know the height of the grotto. |

WATERSLIDE DESIGN |
 |
There are numerous standard slide configurations and an infinite amount of custom options available. Once a general height and shape has been chosen, Replications Unlimited will integrate the waterslide into a final rockscape design. Minor changes in the design may be necessary to insure that the rockscape and waterslide fit into the pool and shape. |
COLOR CHOICES |
| We offer a wide range of colors and the ability to closely match coloring of surround rocks or elements. |
|
|
FINAL LAYOUT |
| Once all the elements have been determined, we will provide a color drawing of the design and an optional clay model can be provided. |

THE INSTALLATION PROCESS |
| How easy is it to install our features? Typically installation using real rock can take weeks and lots of man hours to complete. Since our features are built pre-plumbed and in modular sections, installation generally takes only a couple days. The whole process is as simple as moving the sections into place. |
