Our Pool Building Process

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

GOOD Based on 19 reviews Posted on B PiancinoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. 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.
