Since 1970, Bob Nelson has been successfully designing and selling swimming pool and spa projects in the greater Sacramento area, including Roseville, Lincoln, Granite Bay, Auburn, and Citrus Heights, and has been the recipient of sixteen national design awards. In 1996, he recognized the need for a more customer oriented type of swimming pool company and activated his contractors license, issued in 1976, and forming Nelson Pools. Nelson Pools has recently initiated what we refer to as our "Cost Plus" purchase.
