Company Overview

Ponds Spring Custom Pools is recognized as one of the top rated custom pool builders in the greater Austin / Central Texas / Hill Country area. We build some of the most stunning and creative Waterscapes in the area. We also take on some of the most difficult engineering challenges, such as vanishing edge pools, perimeter overflow pools, pools on steep hillsides, and pools built “out of grade.”

 

About Our Award-Winning Designs

One of the main secrets to the success of Pond Springs Custom Pools is the strength of our design and operations team. Our supervisor Neal has designed and built hundreds of amazing projects that have not only won beauty and technical awards, but graced the pages of multiple local and national magazines.

 

As the principal operator of Pond Springs Custom Pools, Neal is frequently on site, checking the quality of workmanship, and ensuring that everything meets his discriminating standards.

 

When homeowners talk about working with us, they talk about our passion and commitment to making them happy. They refer to it as a “fabulous” and “top-notch experience.”
