Since 1966, we’ve helped homeowners turn open yard space into a destination for relaxing, entertaining, and making memories. From classic geometric pools to high-end luxury designs with integrated spas, water features, and outdoor living spaces, our team is built around one goal: delivering a pool you’re proud to own for years to come.
Built for homeowners who want confidence, clarity, and craftsmanship
A pool is a major home investment, and it should feel exciting, not stressful. We focus on clear communication, realistic timelines, and a process that keeps you informed at every milestone—so you always know what’s happening and what’s next.
Whether you’re early in the planning phase or ready to start the design process, our team can help you compare options, understand costs, and choose features that make sense for your space.
Why Choose Ewing Aquatech for Your Custom Pool
Choosing among pool builders isn’t just about who can dig a hole and fill it with water. It’s about design expertise, construction standards, reliable project management, and post-completion support. We’re structured to deliver on all of it.
You’ll get a collaborative partner who helps you make smart decisions—from layout and finishes to automation, safety, energy efficiency, and long-term maintenance.
In business since 1966 with deep local experience
Decades in the industry matter because every backyard has its own challenges: soil conditions, drainage patterns, access constraints, setback rules, and utility placement. Our experience helps us anticipate issues early and plan around them, which protects both your timeline and your budget.
Over 100 national design awards
Design is not an afterthought here. Our portfolio reflects a wide range of styles, from clean, modern lines to resort-inspired outdoor environments. We design pools to look right from every angle that matters—kitchen window views, patio seating lines, and evening lighting.
If you already have inspiration photos, we’ll help you translate them into a buildable plan that fits your property and your priorities.
Professional standards and proven construction practices
Homeowners often compare pool builders based solely on looks. We care just as much about what you don’t see—engineering, structural integrity, equipment selection, and hydraulic performance—because those choices determine how well the pool functions in the long run.
You can expect a build approach that prioritizes:
- Quality control checkpoints throughout construction
- Durable materials and reputable equipment brands
- Thoughtful plumbing and circulation design
- Clean, safe jobsite practices and organized scheduling
Clear communication and a guided experience
We work to eliminate the common frustrations homeowners report during construction: vague timelines, unclear responsibilities, and surprise add-ons. You’ll receive guidance on selections and upgrades, along with straightforward explanations, so you can confidently approve decisions.
Service after the build
A pool should be easy to own. We’ll show you how everything works, recommend maintenance routines, and help you choose service options that keep the water clean, equipment efficient, and surfaces protected.

Our Pool Building Services
Every property and family uses a pool differently. Some homeowners want a sleek lap lane for daily exercise, while others want a full backyard destination for weekends and gatherings. Our services are designed to cover both ends of that spectrum—and everything in between.
We build custom pools and integrated backyard environments, with options tailored to your space, style, and comfort preferences.
Custom inground pools
A custom inground pool gives you the freedom to build around your home’s architecture and your yard’s layout. We’ll help you choose the right dimensions, depth profile, steps, benches, tanning ledges, and circulation design to support how you actually plan to use the pool.
Common design elements we build into custom pools include:
- Tanning ledges and shallow lounging areas
- Built-in benches and conversation zones
- Custom steps, entries, and handrail planning
- Deep-end planning for play and diving (where appropriate)
- Strategic returns and skimmers for cleaner water
Gunite pools and fully custom shapes
For homeowners who want maximum design flexibility, gunite construction allows highly customized forms, depths, and finish selections. This is often the best choice when you want a one-of-one look or need to work around unique yard constraints.
Gunite pools are a strong fit for:
- High-end custom designs
- Built-in spas and complex water features
- Premium interior finishes
- Larger pools or pools with unique geometry
Luxury and geometric designs
Clean lines, crisp corners, and balanced proportions can create a timeless, high-end look—especially when paired with modern finishes, lighting, and hardscape. We can design a geometric pool that complements contemporary architecture or elevates a more traditional home with a refined outdoor focal point.
Features often paired with geometric pools:
- Perimeter overflow looks and clean-edge details
- LED lighting designs for evening ambiance
- Coordinated decking, coping, and patio layouts
- Waterline tile selections that enhance the design
Freeform and natural-inspired pools
If your vision leans more resort-like, a freeform pool can create a relaxed, organic feel. Curves soften the yard and can be ideal for properties with existing landscaping or a more natural terrain.
Freeform design options include:
- Lagoon-style outlines
- Integrated rock and boulder accents (where desired)
- Multi-level spaces for play and lounging
- Waterfalls and gentle sound features
Infinity-edge and visual statement pools
Infinity-edge pools require precise engineering and careful planning. When the property supports it, this style can deliver an unforgettable visual effect and transform the way your backyard feels.
We’ll help you evaluate:
- Site lines and elevation changes
- Structural and hydraulic requirements
- Edge treatments and catch basin planning
- The best finishing choices to support the visual effect
Cocktail pools and smaller-yard solutions
Not every homeowner wants or needs a large pool. Cocktail pools and compact designs can still deliver a premium experience with smart layout, benches, jets, and a strong materials package.
These pools are ideal for:
- Smaller properties
- Homeowners who want a cooling retreat with minimal footprint
- Outdoor living spaces where the pool complements a larger patio plan
Lap pools and fitness-focused designs
For training, low-impact exercise, or routine swimming, lap pools bring purpose to the backyard. We can incorporate a lap lane layout, consistent depth profiles, or options that support steady swimming.
Fitness add-ons may include:
- Swim jets for resistance training
- Dedicated lane markers and simplified geometry
- Easy-entry steps designed for everyday use
Swim spas and endless pool-style solutions
Swim spas and endless-style systems can be a great fit for homeowners who want year-round use or a compact footprint. We’ll help you compare options and understand what’s best for your goals and your space.
Water features, spas, and outdoor living
The most enjoyable backyards feel cohesive. We design pools and outdoor living elements together so everything looks intentional and functions smoothly.
Popular upgrades include:
- Raised spas with spillways
- Sheer descents, scuppers, and decorative spillways
- Bubblers on tanning ledges
- Waterfalls and accent features for sound and movement
- Fire features paired with seating areas
- Outdoor kitchens and entertaining spaces
- Shade structures and pergola planning
- Landscape lighting concepts and pool lighting coordination
Pool renovations, repairs, and equipment upgrades
If you already have a pool, we also modernize and restore older pools—updating both appearance and performance. Renovations can dramatically improve comfort, efficiency, and day-to-day usability.
Renovation projects often include:
- Resurfacing and finish upgrades
- Tile and coping replacement
- Deck improvements and drainage corrections
- LED lighting upgrades
- Automation upgrades and equipment replacement
- Adding features like spas, benches, or water features (when feasible)

Frequently Asked Questions
Choosing among pool builders often comes down to trust and clarity. These FAQs are designed to answer the questions we hear most from homeowners who are planning a new pool or considering an upgrade.
How much does a custom pool cost?
Custom pool pricing depends on size, materials, site access, finish choices, decking, and features like spas, water features, or automation. A pool designed with a clean, efficient layout will price differently from a pool with multiple elevations, complex hardscape, and premium finishes.
Key cost factors typically include:
- Pool size and depth profile
- Construction type and structural requirements
- Interior finish and tile selections
- Decking area, drainage, and hardscape scope
- Equipment package (pump, filter, heater/chiller, automation)
- Add-ons like spas, lighting, water features, and fire features
- Site conditions and access (tight access can affect labor and logistics)
The best way to get accurate pricing is a consultation and a design-driven estimate. We’ll help you prioritize features so you get the best result within your target investment.
What is the typical timeline for pool construction?
Timelines vary based on project complexity, weather, permitting requirements, and seasonal demand. Many custom builds take several weeks from excavation to completion, while highly customized projects with extensive outdoor living can take longer.
A realistic timeline often includes:
- Design and selections
- Permits and scheduling
- Construction phases (structural work, decking, finishes)
- Equipment setup, start-up, and orientation
During planning, we’ll explain the timeline you can expect for your specific pool and keep you updated as milestones are reached.
Do you handle permits and inspections?
We assist with the permitting process and help coordinate required steps so your project follows applicable requirements. The exact requirements vary by location, but our process is designed to keep the administrative side organized and moving forward.
If you live in a neighborhood with additional rules, we can also help you prepare information needed for HOA or architectural review submissions when applicable.
What pool materials and construction types do you offer?
Different construction types fit different goals. Many homeowners choose a fully custom approach when they want maximum design flexibility, premium finishes, and integrated features.
In a consultation, we’ll walk through:
- The design flexibility you want (shape, depth, features)
- Your preferred finish and overall look
- Your long-term maintenance preferences
- Budget range and timeline goals
We’ll recommend the best-fit approach for your property and your priorities, rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all solution.
Can I finance my pool?
Yes, many homeowners choose to finance a pool. Financing can allow you to move forward with the right design and equipment package while maintaining flexibility for other home priorities.
If you request financing information, we can help you:
- Understand common financing structures
- Review what information lenders typically require
- Evaluate monthly payment scenarios based on project scope
All financing is subject to credit approval, and terms vary by lender.
What warranties do you offer?
Warranty coverage varies based on the products and finishes you select. We provide clear warranty documentation and will walk you through it during handoff so you know exactly what’s covered and how to keep your coverage protected.
Warranty categories typically include:
- Manufacturer warranties for equipment and components
- Coverage tied to specific finishes or materials
- Workmanship coverage provided by Ewing Aquatech (ask us for current terms)
We also recommend operating and maintenance best practices to help your pool look and perform at its best over time.
How do you help with pool maintenance after the build?
We aim to make pool ownership feel simple. At handoff, you’ll learn how your system works, how to run basic checks, and how to keep the water balanced.
Support may include:
- Routine cleaning and maintenance plans
- Water testing and balancing guidance
- Seasonal readiness support
- Equipment troubleshooting and repairs
- Automation assistance and programming help
For homeowners who want to modernize how they manage their pool, we can also discuss automation features that simplify day-to-day operation.
Do you build water features and outdoor living spaces?
Yes. Many of the most impressive backyards are planned as one cohesive project, not as separate phases. We can design the pool alongside outdoor elements so the finished space looks intentional and functions well.
Outdoor upgrades commonly include:
- Raised spas and spillways
- Waterfalls, sheer descents, and bubblers
- Fire features and seating areas
- Outdoor kitchens and bars
- Patio expansions, shade structures, and lighting plans
If you already have a patio or an outdoor kitchen, we can also design the pool to complement what you have.
Can I see references or examples of completed projects?
Yes. You can explore our gallery and project portfolio to see a range of styles and features. We can also share examples that align with what you’re considering—such as geometric pools, resort-style designs, integrated spas, or renovation transformations.
If you’d like, we can also point you toward testimonials and reviews so you can hear directly from homeowners about their experience working with our team.
How do I choose the right pool builder?
Look for pool builders who combine strong design capability with disciplined project management and proven construction standards. Beyond photos, you should feel confident in how the builder communicates, how they handle the planning phase, and what support looks like after the pool is finished.
When comparing pool builders, consider asking:
- Who will manage my project day to day?
- What is your process for design approvals and selections?
- How do you handle changes once construction begins?
- What equipment do you recommend and why?
- How do you handle warranties and service after completion?
We’re happy to answer these questions and show you what a well-managed build experience looks like.
