When you spend six years diagnosing leaks, replacing burnt-out motors, and repairing cracked surfaces across Central Texas, you learn exactly what goes wrong with backyard pools.
Blue Ocean is introducing our new custom pool construction service. Backed by six years as a trusted pool service provider and guided by founder Chris Short’s roots as a pool builder, we are applying our hands-on field experience directly to new builds.
The Lessons 1,500+ Pool Repairs Taught Us
Since our founding, Blue Ocean has grown to serve more than 600 weekly customers across greater Austin. That journey showed us the recurring design flaws that plague local pool owners:
- Improper Equipment Pads: Pumps placed too far above water level or jammed into inaccessible corners, causing them to work harder shortening the life capacity.
- Inefficient Circulation: Dead spots in water flow that demand excessive chemical use to stave off algae.
Chris Short was a pool builder before co-founding Blue Ocean. Combining his construction background with our team's six years of local maintenance data allows us to eliminate these failure points before the first shovel hits the ground.
We Build for Ownership, Not Just the Hand-Off
Anyone in Texas can buy equipment and call themselves a contractor. However, a builder who doesn't service pools rarely thinks about filter cleaning clearances, valve access, or chemical stability.
We build pools to be effortless to operate:
- The Right Equipment in the Right Spot: Configured for maximum hydraulic flow, lower energy consumption, and hassle-free servicing.
- Functional Aesthetics: Waterfalls, tanning ledges, and custom decks built to withstand intense heat and soil expansion without costly structural cracking.
- End-to-End Accountability: You work with a licensed, insured, and verified business with an established 4.8-star track record.
Unmatched Value: Your First Year of Service on Us
Traditional pool builders finish the job and leave you to figure out startup chemistry, equipment schedules, and weekly care on your own.
With Blue Ocean, we protect your investment from day one: every new pool we build comes with a complete equipment startup and one full year of weekly maintenance, including all routine chemicals.
