Waters Edge Design 

 

When getting involved in the pool industry, Mark discovered the lack of education and consistent standards for pool construction. Looking to align his company practices with his own personal standards, Mark invested in getting an education from the best of best.  Waters Edge Design was born out of the desire to build people their dreams using the best methods available for long lasting and stunning spaces. We believe in the art of water and want to share that love with you.

After many years in general construction and remodeling, Mark became interested in the world of pool construction. He is passionate about creating a space that is both practical and aesthetically functional. He has invested time and energy into learning about different design elements and products as well as the benefits of having water in your space. Mark has extensive education with the leaders in the industry and holds credentials as an IWI (International Watershape Institute) member, representing the top educated in the industry.  Mark’s love of family and quality time is what drives him to create a space that you and your loved ones will use and enjoy for years to come.
