Our Pool Building Process

Planning, Design & Permits

We guide you from concept to approved plan. Our team designs custom pool layouts and 3D visuals tailored to your backyard while managing every pool building permit and HOA requirement. We ensure pool design compliance with local codes, safety standards, and regulations so your Texas pool construction starts smoothly and stress-free.

Excavation & Foundation Work

Once your pool design and permits have been approved, our crew begins the pool excavation process & shapes the pool exactly as planned. We ensure the correct depth, slope, and access while protecting your landscape and utilities. Before starting the plumbing, steel, and shell construction, the foundation is compacted and graded for stability, and proper drainage is installed for long-term durability.

Plumbing & Electrical

Before the steel and shell are installed, our crew lays out all pool plumbing and electrical systems with precision. Every pipe, return line, light conduit, and junction is carefully positioned for efficient water flow, safe wiring, and long-term reliability. This stage of inground pool plumbing ensures your equipment, lighting, and automation work perfectly once construction is complete.

Structure & Reinforcement
pool Structure & Reinforcement service

After plumbing installation, our team builds the pool structure using a steel rebar grid or wall panel system to reinforce the shape and strength of the design. This reinforced pool framework forms the base for the gunite or vinyl liner shell, ensuring durability, safety, and long-term performance in every custom pool build.

Shell Construction (Gunite or Liner)

Once the structure is complete, the pool shell is formed using either gunite for strength and customization or a vinyl liner for a smooth, efficient finish. Our builders make sure that the shell is shaped, hardened, and sealed to make a waterproof, long-lasting base that sets the style and quality of your custom swimming pool.

Tile, Coping & Deck Installation

After the shell is complete, we install waterline tile, coping, and custom pool decking to enhance both appearance and function. Decorative tiles add style and durability, coping stones create a smooth edge around the pool, and decking materials like concrete, travertine, or pavers provide a safe, comfortable surface for lounging and entertaining.

Interior Finish & Startup

We complete your pool by applying the plaster, pebbles, or quartz that you picked for the interior. This creates a smooth, watertight surface that makes the pool look more inviting and feel nicer. Once the finish cures, our team fills the pool, balances the water chemistry, installs all pool equipment, and performs a full system startup to ensure everything runs perfectly from day one.

I am compelled to write this review because I honestly cannot understand the negative comments left here. Roger and his team designed and built my pool in 2018 and did an excellent job! Since then, he and his family have been nothing but awesome whenever a problem occurs or I just need some help. They are always professional and truly pleasant to deal with and I hope anyone reading this will take the negative reviews with a grain of salt and know that these are good folks.

We met Roger at our house when we were getting quotes for pools. He seemed really nice and a good guy. So we were happy when they were the company who put in the pool at our new home. So I called them to ask about the winterizing of the pool. The lady who asked the phone told me the different ways that it can be done and how my pool was done. And I told her I had some broken pipes and she gota bad attitude towards me saying that they knew how to winterize pools. She kept interrupting me every time I tried to tell her something. I was just trying to see if something bad coukd have happened but she wouldn't listen. I called Pestegious pool they came out before the freeze and check it and found out it was just the backwash line wasn't drained.

September 2018, 3 years ago Roger and the crew at Outback Pools completed our pool. They have serviced it every step of the way. Went above and beyond to help me get the heater warrantied when it went out. I can honestly that Outback Pools under promise and over deliver. They are always prompt when I call for service. Roger and the crew at Outback Pools go above and beyond. It took my Wife and I 2 years to make all the decisions about our pool. Roger was very patience, knowledgeable and answered every question we had. Our pool is the most amazing space at our home. Roger definitely under promises and over delivers. I would recommend Outback Pools to anyone.

The cost of a new pool in Texas typically ranges from $50,000 to $100,000+, depending on pool type, materials, size, and features. Gunite pools cost more but last longer, while vinyl liner pools are more affordable upfront.

Yes. Pool construction typically requires local building permits, inspections, and adherence to fencing and safety codes. Our experienced team will help handle or guide you through the entire permitting process.

Start with a consultation. We’ll review your yard, utilities, access, and design preferences, then provide a 3D layout and estimate. Good planning ensures a smooth construction process.

  • Pool type (gunite, vinyl liner)

  • Size, shape, and depth

  • Soil and site conditions

  • Added features (spa, lighting, automation, decking)

  • Permits and equipment
    These factors determine your total budget and build timeline.

A standard inground gunite pool typically takes 8–12 weeks, depending on weather, permits, and site access. Vinyl liner pools can be completed faster due to simpler installation.

We’re local to Amarillo and the Texas Panhandle, understand the soil and weather, and have years of experience in custom pool construction. Our focus is quality work, clear communication, and long-lasting pools you’ll enjoy for years.
