Custom Pool Design for Frisco Families
Frisco is one of the fastest-growing cities in the Metroplex, and its new-construction communities — Phillips Creek Ranch, Starwood, Newman Village, Richwoods — are drawing families who build with intention. These homes deserve outdoor environments designed with the same deliberation.
Selah Pools designs and builds custom gunite pools for Frisco families with a process that integrates seamlessly with new construction. When the pool is designed alongside the home — coordinated with the architect, the grading plan, and the landscape concept — the result is an outdoor environment that reads as one unified property, not a pool dropped into the yard after closing.
Our Hurst headquarters is north of Fort Worth, and Frisco's position in the northern Metroplex means we bring the same design-first process and engineering rigor to Collin and Denton County communities that we've refined across Tarrant County. Soil conditions differ — and our engineering accounts for it.
Why Frisco Families Choose Selah

New-Construction Integration
Pool design that coordinates with your home builder, architect, and landscape plan from the start. Drainage, grading, utility placement, and architectural continuity — handled before construction begins, not after.
Complete Outdoor Environments
Pools, custom spas, outdoor kitchens, fire features, and covered structures — designed as one cohesive environment. Frisco lots have the space for comprehensive outdoor living, and the design should take full advantage of it.

Frequently Asked Questions About Pools in Frisco
How do Frisco's newer neighborhoods influence pool design?
Frisco's residential growth spans the Collin–Denton county line, where communities like Phillips Creek Ranch, Richwoods, and Newman Village feature lots that routinely exceed a quarter acre. That space changes the design conversation — instead of fitting a pool into a tight footprint, we design the entire outdoor environment as an integrated extension of the home.
Our design process in Frisco starts with a site assessment specific to each lot's drainage patterns, grade changes, and the relationship between indoor living areas and the proposed outdoor space. Newer Frisco homes often feature expansive rear elevations with covered patios that become the visual anchor for pool placement and orientation.
Larger lots allow features that constrained properties cannot accommodate — vanishing-edge pools oriented toward open sight lines, freeform designs with rock grottos and waterfall features, or geometric pools with separate spa structures connected by raised-beam spillways. Our Frisco projects average pool perimeters exceeding 80 feet with water volumes above 13,000 gallons.
Many Frisco communities maintain architectural review committees that influence material selections beyond basic city permitting. Travertine decking, natural stone veneer, and glass tile accents are frequently specified — both for aesthetic consistency with surrounding homes and for long-term performance against the Blackland Prairie clay movement that affects this part of Collin County.
What outdoor living features are popular in Frisco pool projects?
Frisco homeowners consistently invest in complete outdoor environments that extend well beyond the pool itself. Our Frisco projects typically integrate multiple living zones — a pattern driven by the city's generous lot sizes and newer construction with large-format windows that frame the outdoor space from inside.
The most requested features in our Frisco builds include built-in outdoor kitchens with commercial-grade grills, refrigeration, and ice chests positioned under cedar pergola structures engineered for North Texas wind loads. Fire features are nearly universal — raised fire bowls flanking a custom spa, or a standalone fireplace anchoring a covered seating area.
Water features add dimension after dark: sheer descent waterfalls, spillway spas, deck jets, and bubblers with integrated LED color lighting. Tanning ledges — shallow in-pool wading shelves — have become a standard request, creating a transition zone between the pool and adjacent entertaining spaces.
Smart automation ties everything together. Systems like the Jandy AquaLink RS let you control pool temperature, spa jets, lighting, fire features, and water elements from your phone — essential when you're entertaining and can't step away to the equipment pad. Combined with saltwater sanitation and UV treatment, the complete outdoor environment operates with minimal daily effort.
Our Frisco new construction projects typically range from $140,000 to $245,000 depending on scope and material selections.
What does a custom pool cost in Frisco?
Custom gunite pools start around $65,000 and scale with design complexity. Frisco families frequently invest in complete outdoor environments — pools, spas, outdoor kitchens, and fire features. The total investment reflects the scope of the outdoor program.
Can you coordinate with my home builder?
Yes — and for Frisco new-construction, we recommend it. Early coordination with your general contractor and architect allows us to integrate the pool design with grading, drainage, utility placement, and architectural intent. The earlier we're involved, the more cohesive the result.
How do Frisco soil conditions affect pool construction?
Frisco spans Collin and Denton County, with soil conditions that differ from Tarrant County's heavy clay. Every project includes site-specific soil assessment and engineering appropriate for local conditions — reinforced gunite, proper drainage, and structural design built for long-term stability.
Do Frisco HOAs have pool construction requirements?
Many Frisco communities — particularly Phillips Creek Ranch, Starwood, and Newman Village — have architectural review requirements for exterior construction. Our team is experienced with the review process and can coordinate with your HOA to ensure design compliance.
How long does pool construction take?
Most projects complete in 8 to 14 weeks from permit approval. New-construction coordination may adjust the timeline based on the home builder's schedule. We provide detailed scheduling and maintain clear communication with both you and your builder throughout.
