Client stories that inspire us
We had an amazing experience with with Texas Innovative Pools! Upon our first meeting, they took great care in listening to our overall vision for our custom pool and pergola space. We were always informed of updates. We are so happy with how our new backyard turned out! Thank you Ronnie and the entire team!

When we moved in, the backyard was basically just grass. Now? We’ve got a fluid, modern pool, little patio, fire pit, even room for our faux-turf putting spot. They handled everything end-to-end, including landscaping touches around the pool. It’s become an evening hangout spot for the whole family. Feels like paid-for serenity.

We had a great experience with Texas Innovative Pools! After meeting with several builders, we chose them, and it was the best decision. Their professionalism, kindness, and dedication made the experience truly enjoyable. We are absolutely thrilled with our new pool and couldn’t recommend Texas Innovative Pools more.

From the moment we booked the consult, everything felt cared for. The team’s PHTA certification isn’t just fluff, they knew all the technical ins and outs, even zoning quirks around Tomball. Really happy we picked a family-run outfit that treats your backyard like their own.

I was nervous about building an inground pool on our Hill Country plot—terrain here isn’t forgiving. But the team’s experience with Hill Country excavation was obvious from day one. Their in-house 3D design showed me exactly what a free-form, nature-inspired pool would look like, and the finished pool fits the landscape as if it were always there.

Paul and Leah really delivered. From the first 3D designs to the final walkthrough, I got so much personal attention you’d expect from a small, caring firm, not some huge volume builder. Our pool and fire‑pit lounge area/main outdoor living space flow so well together now. Super happy.

I was surprised how smoothly they coordinated everything from engineering the excavations (the yard’s got some slope) to lining up the permit process. The 3‑D visuals helped avoid any surprises. The final build? Beautiful curves, clean finishes, and it feels solid. Definitely recommend them in Tomball.

Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take to build a custom pool?
A standard high-quality gunite pool typically takes 10–16 weeks to complete. This timeline accounts for our “Texas Tough” engineering standards, including the critical 30-day concrete curing period required for maximum structural integrity.
What makes your pools "Texas Tough"?

Our PHTA-certified team follows proven, precision-driven practices to deliver a robust structure—so your pool stays strong, stable, and structurally sound for decades.
Do you provide a turnkey service for my entire backyard?
Yes. Through our Single Contractor Advantage, we handle everything from the initial 3D design to the final landscaping, outdoor kitchens, and hardscaping. This ensures a cohesive design and a stress-free experience with one point of contact.
Are your project managers professionally trained?
Absolutely. Unlike many builders, our projects are managed by a PHTA-certified team that completes required continuing education each year.
