A custom pool should be an investment you enjoy, not a construction project you worry about. At Design Concepts, we build custom concrete pools, spas, integrated water features, and premium pool upgrades through a transparent process that puts quality first. Build your pool right from the start.
Every outdoor space is different, which is why every pool we build is designed with your home, lifestyle, and long-term enjoyment in mind.
Your backyard should reflect the way you live.
Every custom pool is thoughtfully designed around your home, your lifestyle, and the outdoor experience you want to create. From relaxing afternoons to memorable gatherings, we build outdoor spaces your family can enjoy for years to come.
Architectural details are what transform a beautiful pool into a true centerpiece.
Rather than treating waterfalls and specialty features as decorative add-ons, we engineer them as part of the original construction process to ensure lasting structural performance.
The finishing details shape how your pool looks, performs, and ages.
We offer premium upgrades that enhance both appearance and long-term ownership while reducing ongoing maintenance.
Every element is engineered directly into the pool's concrete structure from the beginning, creating a design built for long-term durability.
Each feature is designed alongside the pool shell to deliver both visual impact and structural reliability.
Every upgrade is selected to complement your design while supporting dependable long-term performance.
A custom pool should continue performing beautifully years after construction is complete. That's why every project is designed with both craftsmanship and longevity in mind.
Known project costs are clearly outlined before permitting, giving you confidence before construction begins.
Sun ledges, waterfalls, and specialty features are integrated into the original concrete shell rather than added later.
Every pool is designed around your property, your lifestyle, and how you want to use your outdoor space, with pool landscape design considered alongside the pool itself rather than as a separate afterthought.
We install trusted Pentair pool equipment along with premium finishes that help reduce maintenance while improving long-term performance.
One experienced team manages your project from design through completion, creating a smoother construction experience.
Most projects are completed in approximately 12 weeks from breaking ground, depending on permitting, weather, and project scope.
Most questions homeowners have about pool construction come back to three things: what it will cost, how long it will take, and whether the finished result will match what they envisioned. We address all three before a permit is ever pulled.
We begin by listening. Tell us about your home, your family, and how you plan to use the pool. Shallow or deep. Just the two of you or a crowd. The design comes after we understand the life it needs to support. Every project begins with a custom pool design consultation tailored to your property and lifestyle.
We create a custom plan built around your property and goals. When the proposal is delivered, all known costs are documented. We do not add charges mid-build. Any condition outside our scope is addressed before work begins.
We manage permitting and engineering with a team that knows Lee County requirements. You stay informed at every step. Clear communication is not a courtesy but a part of how we build.
Key work stays in-house. Long-term subcontractor relationships. Equipment designed to access tight spaces. The crew on your project is experienced, punctual, and respectful of your property from day one to the final walkthrough.
Great pools aren't built by rushing the finish. They're built by getting every step right. Our construction process includes:
From the initial custom pool design consultation to the construction and finishing details, you'll
receive clear communication so you always know what stage your project is in.

Here's what homeowners across Southwest Florida have to say about building with Design Concepts & Construction.
“We’ve had our pool for a little over a year and couldn’t be happier. Ken and Mike are gentlemen at a business level, and knowledgeable professionals as pool contractors. During and after construction, my slightest tweaks were addressed immediately (that very day). We continue to recommend this company to our friends and neighbors with the knowledge that they will be as happy with their pool as we are!”
“Design Concepts built my new pool, and I am so happy with it. Jacqueline, their designer, helped pick out the tile and I love the final look. They gave me several options to choose from for shape with the pool and spa together. I couldn’t be happier with the final result. Great company to work with.”
“We LOVE our pool by Design Concepts! Everything about this build exceeded our expectations. Jacqueline and Arron understood our vision, and the final product is even better than we imagined. Construction went so smoothly. Mike kept us well informed throughout the process. The construction crews were absolute rock stars. “Under promise and over deliver” seems to be the Design Concepts motto. We highly recommend Design Concepts!”
“Design Concepts was amazing to work with from the initial meeting through the finished product. We loved that they have their own crews and don’t have to depend on subcontractors. Because of this, they were able to finish our pool exactly when promised in 12 weeks. They are priced fairly and build an excellent product. All of their employees were professional and easy to work with. Communication was consistent with the crews always showing up on the day and time expected. We are so pleased with our new pool and our choice to have Design Concepts as our contractor.”
“Design Concepts and Construction was definitely the way to go with this project. From start to finish, everyone from the office to the workers was kind and courteous. They listened to our wants and needs. Came up with a perfect design. We are so happy with our pool. Thanks again to everyone at Design Concepts and Construction.”
