Custom pool construction in Phoenix

Most pool projects are bid by a pool builder who stops at the water's edge. The deck, the shade, the kitchen, and the planting get handled later by whoever the homeowner finds next — which is why so many Phoenix backyards look like a pool with a patio bolted on.

We design the whole envelope at once. Coping height sets deck elevation, deck elevation sets drainage, drainage sets planting, and shade placement is decided against the actual west-sun exposure of your lot rather than after the fact.

Design and 3D rendering first, so you approve a picture rather than a description. Then engineering and permits with the municipality, which in Phoenix, Scottsdale, and Paradise Valley all run differently and all have their own review timelines.

Construction sequence is excavation, steel, plumbing and electrical rough-in, gunite, tile and coping, decking and hardscape, then interior finish, equipment set, and startup. Landscape and lighting go in as the deck completes so the yard finishes together.

Size and depth matter less than people expect. What moves a Phoenix pool budget most is site access, elevation change, the interior finish you choose, and how much deck and shade surrounds it. A tight side-yard access on a hillside lot in Troon costs meaningfully more to excavate than a flat Gilbert lot with a wide gate.

Water features, tanning ledges, spas, automation, and heating are each real line items. We put them in the 3D so you can see what you are buying before you decide.
