How much does a pool cost?

A pool ranges widely base on the type of pool you want and the customization needed. Our pools range from $30K-$120K on average.

What type of pool should I get?

What pool is right for you is based on many options: price-point, size, custom options, planned use, age of people at the home, and much more. You can check out a brief description of each pool we offer here, but our recommendation is to schedule an appointment and have our owner, Mark, walk you through the options and recommendations. Book an appointment today.

What should I consider before buying a pool?

  • Understanding how you want to use your pool will help determine size, shape, type, and custom options
  • Pool maintenance: different pools require different levels of maintenance, but all pools require regular checks on pool levels
  • Safety of pets and children: pools can be dangerous for unsupervised pets and children so it’s important to have a plan or work with us to create a plan for safety
  • Size of pool depends on a pool’s location and size of a backyard. If you’re unsure, ask for a free estimate, and we can give you options

What questions should I ask to determine a pool builder?

  • What is your design & installation process?
  • How long until I could get a pool installed after I sign a contract?
  • Do you work on multiple sites at a time (as this can delay projects for months)?
  • What is not included in the estimate?
  • Can I get a breakdown of cost & timeline estimates?
  • Can you provide references?
  • How do you recommend extending a pool’s durability, especially in regards to Corpus Christi’s high salt content?
  • What are your guarantees and warranties
