Cipriano Landscape Design & Custom Swimming Pools

What Cipriano Landscape Design & Custom Swimming Pools does

Cipriano Landscape Design & Custom Swimming Pools is a luxury residential landscape architecture and custom swimming pool construction firm founded in 1989 and headquartered in Mahwah, New Jersey. The company serves affluent homeowners across Northern New Jersey, delivering integrated outdoor estate projects that combine custom pool construction with full-scope landscape design. It operates with a small team of approximately 12 employees and maintains a 10-acre tree farm that supplies mature specimen trees for its installations.

The company's core offering centers on custom inground gunite pools, with technical specializations that include glass tile finishes, vanishing edge designs, fiber optic lighting, and perimeter overflow systems. Beyond pools, the firm delivers comprehensive landscape architecture services including natural stone masonry, outdoor structures, landscape lighting, irrigation systems, and full estate management. The firm has installed over 200,000 square feet of natural stone across its portfolio and has accumulated more than 90 industry awards, including 20 international recognitions, and multiple-year placement on national Top 50 Pool Builder lists.

Cipriano operates on a direct-to-consumer, project-based sales model with custom quote pricing tailored to each estate. Revenue is generated through large-ticket, single-project engagements with high-net-worth residential clients rather than recurring contracts. The firm's go-to-market approach is relationship-driven and locally focused, leveraging its award portfolio, design-build capabilities, and digital channels (website, social media, downloadable guides) to convert affluent homeowners in its Northern New Jersey service area.
