Built to Order
Built for Your Lot,
Not a Catalog.
Every backyard I've ever worked with is different. Flat. Sloped. Full of limestone rock under the topsoil. Shaded by live oaks you’re not willing to cut. A drainage pattern that sends rainwater toward your foundation.
That's why I don't start with a pool template. I start with your ground.
Turner Custom Pools is a gunite pool builder grounded in 15+ years of custom home construction. That means your pool gets the same structural thinking I'd put into a house — thicker shells where the soil demands it, smarter plumbing layouts, rebar that crosses in two directions where load-bearing matters.
Pools aren't decorations. They're 30-year structural projects. I build them like one.
I'm not doing this alone. My business partner, Ryan Johnson, runs the back office — the scheduling, the systems, and the numbers — so I can stay on the jobsite where I do my best work, and nothing on your project falls through the cracks.
Your pool should outlast your mortgage.
Thicker shells, better steel, smarter plumbing, and materials chosen for decades, not a price point. This isn't a backyard accessory — it's a 30-year investment, and we build it like one.
“After 15 years building custom homes in Seguin, pools were a natural next step. Your backyard deserves the same engineering and craftsmanship as your kitchen or living room — I just couldn't see building it any other way.”
— Coy Turner
Planned Before We Dig
We Plan Before We Break Ground.
Once your design and contract are done, we're in the water in about eight weeks.
That works because the whole project gets planned before I break ground. Your pool design is locked, permits submitted, materials ordered, and crews scheduled before the first shovel touches your yard.

Hill Country Dirt Requires
Different Building.
Hill Country soil isn’t flat, it isn’t consistent, and it moves — drying out in August, swelling back in October. Limestone and caliche mean excavation isn’t just about digging a hole. It’s about navigating rock, managing drainage, and designing for a foundation that shifts.
Fiberglass pools can crack under this stress. Concrete (gunite) flexes with the ground. I’ve spent 15 years building structures in this terrain. Your pool gets that know-how.

Quick Answers
FAQ — Quick Answers
How long does it take to build a pool?+
Once your design and contract are done, we're in the water in about eight weeks. Design-lock means we plan everything — permits, materials, crew schedules — before we dig.
Do you build outside of Seguin?+
Yes. Seguin is my home base, but I regularly build in McQueeney, Marion, and all of Guadalupe County. I know the permits and the soil in each of these areas.
Why do you only build gunite?+
Fiberglass pools crack under Hill Country soil stress — the limestone, caliche, seasonal swelling. Gunite (sprayed concrete over steel rebar) is custom and flexible. It moves with the ground instead of against it. I've seen fiberglass pools crack in this terrain. I won't put one in your backyard.
Do you repair or resurface existing pools?+
No. I build new gunite pools only — I don't repair or resurface existing pools. If you're removing an old pool to build a new one from scratch, that's new construction and I'm glad to talk.
Can I reach you directly during my build?+
Yes. Coy is your builder, your project manager, and your phone call. You don't go through a sales department or leave a message for someone who started last month.
