Most new in-ground pool builds in Houston take between 8–14 weeks from permit approval to final fill. Timeline depends on pool size, design complexity, and City of Houston permitting speed. We provide a realistic schedule at your design consultation and keep you updated every step of the way.
In Houston's hot, humid climate, weekly professional service is strongly recommended. Without regular chemical balancing and cleaning, pools can develop algae, cloudy water, and equipment damage rapidly — especially during summer months when usage and heat are highest.

Custom in-ground pools in Houston typically range from $65,000 to $150,000+ depending on size, finishes, features (spa, tanning ledge, water features), and site conditions. We provide detailed written quotes before any contract is signed — no hidden fees, ever.

Pool resurfacing involves draining the pool, preparing the shell surface, and applying a new interior finish — such as plaster, PebbleTec, or quartz. Depending on the material chosen, new surfaces typically last 10–20 years with proper maintenance. We guide you through material options at your renovation consultation.
