The Woodland’s Most Trusted Pool Builder

Locally Headquartered

Building a pool in The Woodlands isn’t like building one anywhere else. Between The Woodlands Township design standards, village-specific HOA guidelines, and the unique clay-heavy soil conditions across the community, experience here matters.

Pools By Design has been building pools in Grogan’s Mill, Panther Creek, Sterling Ridge, Alden Bridge, and every other village since 1999. We know which HOAs require architectural review, how long township approvals take, and how to engineer for local soil — so your project stays on schedule and on budget.

Our pools start at $69,999 — award-winning craftsmanship at an exceptional value, built right in your backyard by a team that calls The Woodlands home.

Custom Pool Design & Construction

From clean-lined modern pools that complement newer Woodlands builds to lush lagoon-style retreats that disappear into the trees — every design starts from scratch, matched to your home and lot.

HOA & Township Permit Management
