I can't thank Scott and Cindi enough for getting my pool completed so quickly. After going through TWO other contractors who left my pool halfway finished, Scott assured me they would get the job done. Not only did he complete it, he did it much quicker than anticipated, which far exceeded my expectations. You are truly life savers!

They build a quality pool that is made to last. We were very pleased with the professionalism and the transparency of what was needed to ensure long term reliability. They were not the lowest price quoted, but we clearly understood why they were more and the quality that went into it.

Can't recommend Leisure Living Pools enough. We had never built a pool before. Everything they did was 1st class. Our backyard was a sad afterthought. Once Leisure Living Pools did their thing, it was an oasis. Highly recommended.

How much does a custom pool cost in Dallas-Fort Worth?

Most custom inground pools in DFW range from $55,000 to $175,000+ depending on size, shape, finish, and features. A straightforward gunite pool with PebbleTec finish starts around $55,000–$80,000. Add a spa, vanishing edge, outdoor kitchen, or water features and you're looking at $130,000–$250,000+. At Leisure Living Pools, we give you a detailed, itemized estimate after a site visit — no vague ranges, no surprises after you sign.

How long does it take to build a custom pool in North Texas?

From the day we break ground, most custom pools in DFW take 10–16 weeks to complete. Permitting alone can take 2–6 weeks depending on the city and the time of year — we factor that into your schedule from day one. We'll give you a realistic timeline at your consultation and keep you updated throughout the entire build.

What is the best time of year to build a pool in Texas?

Fall — September through November — is the best time to start a pool build in DFW. Weather conditions are ideal for gunite and plaster work, contractor availability is better as the summer rush ends, and permit offices process applications faster. A fall start typically means a December–February completion, so you're swimming when spring arrives.

Do I need a permit to build a pool in Texas?

Yes — virtually every city in Texas requires permits for new pool construction, including building, electrical, and plumbing permits. The good news is Leisure Living Pools handles all permitting for you. We know the process in Frisco, Plano, Dallas, McKinney, and every city we serve — and we make sure everything is filed correctly so your project doesn't hit unnecessary delays.

What makes Leisure Living Pools different from other DFW pool builders?

Three things: experience, accountability, and craft. We've been building custom pools in North Texas since 1980 — over 45 years. Tom Moneta was one of the first certified PebbleTec applicators in the region. Scott Moneta personally oversees every project we take on. We're a third-generation family business, not a franchise — and our name has been on every pool we've built since the beginning.

Does Leisure Living Pools offer financing?

Yes. We work with financing partners who specialize in pool and home improvement lending. Most of our clients finance through a HELOC, home equity loan, or unsecured pool loan. We're happy to walk through the options during your consultation. You can also visit our financing page for current options.
