Our Build Process

Every project, gunite or fiberglass, custom or renovation, runs through the same four phases, managed by one team. That is what "single-builder accountability" means: no handoffs between separate design, sales, and construction companies.

  1. 1

    Site & Consultation

    A walk of your property to evaluate soil, drainage, setbacks, and what you actually want to use the space for, before anything is designed.

  2. 2

    Design & Planning

    A plan built around your home, lot, and budget, not a catalog shape. This is also where financing options and a firm timeline get locked in.

  3. 3

    Construction

    Excavation, steel, gunite or shell-set, plumbing, and electrical, managed phase to phase by the same team that designed the project.

  4. 4

    Final Details

    Decking, plaster or finish, equipment start-up, water balance, and a walkthrough before your pool is ready to use.

How Long Each Phase Takes

Site & Consultation and Design & Planning together usually run a few weeks, since permitting, HOA/design-review submissions (where applicable), and the final design all have to be locked before construction starts. Construction itself is the longest phase for a gunite build, several months, sequenced through excavation, steel, gunite, plumbing/electrical, and decking before final plaster. Fiberglass construction is considerably shorter since the shell arrives pre-built. Final Details, equipment start-up, water balance, and a walkthrough, typically takes days, not weeks.

What Gets Decided During Design & Planning

This is the step where shape, depth, features (tanning ledge, raised spa, water feature), decking material, equipment selection, and financing are all finalized, before a shovel goes in the ground. It's also when permitting and any HOA or architectural-review submissions are prepared and filed.

What this means for Cypress homeowners

Bridgeland and Towne Lake both route pool and backyard plans through an HOA architectural control committee before construction, and lakefront or lake-adjacent lots carry their own drainage and setback rules on top of that. Both are addressed during design so construction is not stalled mid-build waiting on sign-off.

Financing

Financing is discussed during the Design & Planning step, through Foundation Finance or Lyon Financial. See Financing for details.
