What is the typical timeline for building a custom pool?

A custom pool project typically takes between 10 to 16 weeks from excavation to completion, depending on complexity, weather, and permitting. Our design phase, which includes initial consultation and 3D renderings, can take an additional 2-4 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline upfront and keep you informed every step of the way.

How much does a custom pool cost in McKinney?

The cost of a custom pool varies widely based on size, features (e.g., spa, water features, smart controls), materials, and site conditions. A basic custom pool in McKinney might start from $70,000, but luxury designs with extensive landscaping and advanced features can exceed $200,000. We offer transparent pricing and detailed estimates after our initial design consultation.

After design approval, we handle all aspects of construction, from excavation and plumbing to electrical, decking, and final finishes, ensuring a seamless and high-quality build.

What kind of maintenance is required for a custom pool?

Regular maintenance is key to a long-lasting and pristine pool. This includes daily skimming, weekly brushing, chemical balancing, filter cleaning, and periodic equipment checks. We provide detailed guidance on maintenance best practices and can recommend reputable local pool service providers for ongoing care.

What material options are available for the pool finish and decking?

We offer a wide range of premium materials, including various finishes for pool interiors (plaster, pebble, quartz), coping (travertine, flagstone, concrete pavers), and decking (pavers, stamped concrete, natural stone, wood composite). During the design phase, we'll guide you through the pros and cons of each option to find the perfect fit for your aesthetic and budget.
