Fort Worth Pool Builder

The color you see in the pool comes from the combination of the plaster finish and the tile selection. This project uses a standard 6×6" ceramic tile at the waterline paired with a plaster finish that allows the water depth and the Texas sky to create that deep, saturated blue.

The glass tile accent on the spa adds a different dimension — more reflective, more jewel-toned — because the material itself catches and bends light differently than ceramic. None of it is paint or dye. It's the natural interaction between sunlight, water depth, and the materials lining the pool.

Custom pool projects in Fort Worth typically start around $65,000 and scale based on design complexity, site conditions, and features. Fort Worth spans a wide geographic area with significant variation in soil composition — clay-heavy soils in western Fort Worth require different preparation than the sandy loam found in southern neighborhoods.

We begin every Fort Worth project with an on-site consultation where we assess your specific property conditions. This is not a one-size-fits-all proposal — your designer factors in soil, drainage, access, and setbacks to give you an accurate picture before any commitment.

Absolutely — and this project is a great example of how to do it well. The sunken fire pit sits at pool water level, which means when you're seated around the fire, you're eye-to-eye with the surface of the pool. It changes the feel of the space completely compared to a fire pit set up on the deck above.

The design requires careful engineering of the gas lines and drainage around the pit, and the seating walls need to integrate with the pool's structural shell. Selah handles all of that as part of the unified design — fire, water, and structure engineered together from the beginning.

Most Fort Worth pool builds complete in 8 to 14 weeks from permit approval. Fort Worth is our highest-volume market — we have completed more projects here than any other city in the metroplex, which means our crews know the local conditions, inspection schedules, and permitting timelines intimately.

The City of Fort Worth building department runs a structured inspection process. We coordinate all inspections proactively to keep your project moving without delays.

Selah has completed dozens of projects across the Fort Worth area, including this outdoor environment in the Bella Crossing neighborhood. Fort Worth's mix of established neighborhoods and newer developments offers a range of lot sizes and terrain — from flat suburban lots to properties with significant grade changes that create opportunities for features like infinity edges and elevated spas.

Every Fort Worth project starts with a free on-site consultation where Selah assesses your property, understands your vision, and develops a design that works with your specific site.
