Mark Sidway
Pool Builder / Contractor in Encinatas CA
Hey! My name is Mark Sidway, and swimming pools are my life. Way back when I was a kid, my parents used to take me to the neighborhood pool all the time. I always used to wonder why pools came in the same rectangles and ovals—why did they look the same?
If you just want to take a dip, it doesn't matter much how nice the pool is. Water is water. But a backyard pool is much more than a big bathtub—it becomes a gathering place for your family and friends. And the fastest way to ruin that gathering place is by building an ugly pool. Amazing pools, on the other hand, create a personal oasis of tranquility and relaxation.
That, my friends, is how California Poolside was born.
For 15 years, I've trekked all over California searching out the craziest, most passionate pool mavericks I could find. In that time, California Poolside has dreamed up and constructed the most incredible pools and spas in Encinitas. Our goal is simple—defeating all the problems that come along with normal pool builders. Say goodbye to lame design, poor craftsmanship, inflated costs, and a lack of people skills. Our customers just love working with us.
Are you dreaming of a better back yard with a beautiful pool as the centerpiece? Well wake up and give us a call. Your fantasy pool is within reach, and we're going to help you get it. Let's get building.
