Our Process
Watercrest's Proven Path to Success
STEP 1
Request a Design Consultation
Begin your DFW custom pool journey with a personalized design consultation. During this complimentary meeting, one of our expert designers will meet with you to discuss your vision, preferences, and lifestyle. We'll explore design possibilities, answer your questions, and begin crafting a pool that perfectly complements your home and outdoor space.
STEP 2
Approve Your Design
Once we've captured your vision, our talented design team will translate your ideas into stunning 3D renderings and detailed plans. You'll be able to visualize your future North Texas oasis, complete with all the features and finishes you've selected. We'll work closely with you to refine every detail, ensuring your complete satisfaction before moving forward.
STEP 3
Watch Your Design Become Reality
Then, our team of skilled craftsmen will meticulously bring your vision to life. Using only the finest materials and proven construction techniques, we'll transform your DFW backyard into a breathtaking outdoor living area. Throughout the construction process, our team will keep you informed and involved, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience.
Material Selections
Once your final design is approved, and permitting begins, the next step is selecting the materials that will bring your vision to life. This stage requires timely decisions to keep your project on schedule. Incomplete material selections are the most common cause of construction delays, so we guide you carefully through each choice to ensure confidence and clarity.
You’ll work closely with our Materials Coordinator in our Southlake design office, where you can see and feel the materials firsthand. Together, we’ll explore combinations of tile, coping, and decking that complement your home’s exterior and align with your overall aesthetic. Because each design is unique, there are many details to consider—and we’ll help you understand each option.
To make the most of your appointment, we encourage you to bring inspiration photos or explore our Pinterest boards and project galleries ahead of time. The sooner your material selections are finalized, the sooner we can move forward with your project.

Our Story
At Watercrest Pools, our journey has been defined by a dedication to customer satisfaction and exceptional craftsmanship. This consistent focus has earned us a strong reputation in the high-end market, distinguishing us as a trusted leader in custom pool design and construction.
Watercrest Pools was founded in November of 2007 with a vision to create exceptional custom pools for homeowners.
After years of experience working in the luxury pool space, our founder, Sam Swingle, decided to establish Watercrest Pools to bring a fresh perspective to the industry.
Starting with just 10 pools a year, we operated as a small, dedicated team managing all aspects of design, sales, and project supervision.
