Beautiful pool designs and awesome company!

When my family and I decided to move forward with investing in a backyard oasis, we talked to several local pool companies. Heath was the ONLY builder who listened to every single detail we told him we wanted. He also has been doing this for so long that he put his own spin on the design to also make things extremely functional (things that we wouldn't have even thought of). The whole team worked diligently, day and night, to make sure every detail was taken care of… and they did a fantastic, QUALITY job! No corners were cut from the moment they moved the first piece of dirt until the very end when they placed the last piece of glass in the fire pit. Thank you for putting our vision to reality, we absolutely love it and have been spending a lot more time outside! I highly recommend Blue Canyon!

Heath and the Blue Canyon crew are excellent. They came highly recommended. I didn't know what to expect when building a pool. Heath was gracious and patient with all my questioning throughout. I know why Blue Canyon is extremely busy. Heath will not cut corners and will make sure you are completely satisfied with your pool. Remember you get what you pay for, and although Blue Canyon might be more expensive than some other bids, they are worth it. If you choose Blue Canyon you won't be disappointed. God bless!

Blue Canyon Pools does such excellent work that we have used them to build not one, but two pools for us. Heath and his crew are very knowledgeable about their products and are always willing to answer any questions you may have. Their crews are very professional and courteous and did a fantastic job on both of our pools.

Blue Canyon Pools built our pool and we love it! They were so creative in the design phase, quick to build it and it's worked great over the last three years. If you're going to build a pool go with a trusted name-Blue Canyon!

Hello, (it is April 2022) I am in the process of building a pool with Blue Canyon and we are more than half way to completion. I could not be happier with the owner and his staff. They are absolutely wonderful to work with and Heath has been spot on with the look I wanted for my pool. The staff is very respectful of my property and all work has been done in a very timely manner. I am building a modest pool in comparison to many others I have seen yet I felt my project has been just as important to Blue Canyon pools from day one. Please feel free to reach out to me if you are on the fence about hiring this company. I can't wait to swim in my pool this year. So short answer, Absolutely I recommend this company. 100%. Thank you Blue Canyon Pools for the excellent experience thus far.

We have built two pools previously with a company in the DFW metroplex. They were not the cheapest but they offered a high quality build process, transparency, and excellent service. This was why there was no question about them building our second pool after our first build experience. Fast forward to 2023 and we are looking to build pool number three. We have moved to East Texas and our prior builder does not build out this way. So we started our search for a company that can offer the same experience and quality here in East Texas. We spoke to several, we got some bids that on the surface sounded great, however knowing what we learned from our prior builds, the standards in build quality just did not seem to be there. We reached out to Blue Canyon as we had heard great things about them. I will just say Heath and I got off on the wrong foot to start LOL, but it was more to do with his no nonsense style and my poorly timed dry humor. 🤣 Once we got past that, Heath explained their build process, the structure of their pools, etc and I was hooked. He explained that he is going to be more expensive than the competition but he explained clearly why that is the case. His build process is nearly identical to what we had with our prior pools. Heath took the ideas we had for our pool, designed it, met with us and made revisions that we wanted and ultimately built us an amazing pool and hot tub! During the build process we discovered that the plumbers were the same crew that did the plumbing for our last pool in 2017!! They even remembered our address from that build! Talk about an absolute reassurance that we made the right decision in choosing Blue Canyon!! Heath and crew have been amazing to work with! We enjoyed working with all of them. Heath is an amazing person and we are fortunate to call him a friend when it was all said and done. Be aware!! Heath does not pull punches! The man is straight forward and as transparent as possible. If you are not comfortable with that type of personality, I would suggest you look elsewhere. But if you want a genuinely nice, honest, and no BS pool builder, Heath and Blue Canyon are who you want!! Thank you Heath, Jordan, and Koltyn for making our build experience so great!!

This goes out to Blue Canyon pools . We where new to the area and wanted a gunite pool after we found our home well I didn't know where to start me and John was driving seen a truck with Jackson pools on it so we called him I had also put a comment for help on my nextdoor app asking for advice well when I did that I had request of blue canyon precision and custom pools so I said what I got to loose and called them all. After talking to all of them after listening to what we wanted and each making there design that they thought was best for us our decision was Blue canyon pools because they had the best design and you will pay for what you get they don't cut corners where it is important and will work with you on giving you what you want. I truly feel it was the best decision we made and it went smooth. If something wasn't right they fixed it and they did everything to our expectations and above. They gave us exactly what we wanted. I will note that Precision pools came out and seen the size of my yard and i guess because I am in city limits. They left and never came back with nothing … everyone else did thanks to all of them for there time.. but we know we went with the right people, good loving honest people I have called both heath and bill ( maybe more than I should sorry) but they always answer are call me back .. mr bill just came over today and showed us how to run everything and what to do and told us if we forget no problem just call him he will walk us threw it if not he will come over and I can honesty say I know that he would .. so all I can say is if you want a pool above your expectations and make friends because that's what they are too us now call blue canyon with out a doubt.. we love our pool thanks blue canyon and all y'all workers for making our dream come true!
Why it matters
Build the pool that lasts, not the cheapest bid that cuts corners
A pool is one of the biggest investments you will make in your backyard. A low bid can hide cheaper materials, shortcuts in the structure and finishes that wear out early. Blue Canyon builds each pool as a custom gunite structure reinforced with steel rebar, so it is made to hold up for decades of Texas summers.
Steel-reinforced gunite
Every pool is a custom gunite structure reinforced with steel rebar.
Natural stone coping
Natural stone coping frames the pool edge, with travertine, pavers and brick to match your home.
Premium finishes
Choose plaster, Pebble Tec or glass tile to match how you want your pool to look and feel.
Smart automation
Pentair automation controls lighting, temperature and cleaning.
