Why Turner
Why Homeowners in Seguin Choose Turner Custom Pools
I'll tell you straight why homeowners choose Turner — no marketing language, no glossy promises. Just the facts of what we do and how we do it, from a builder who answers his own phone.
Custom Home Builder DNA
Built for Hill Country Dirt
Turner Custom Pools is built by custom home builders first.
I've spent 15+ years building houses, additions, and structural work across Central Texas. That means I understand soil types (limestone, caliche, clay), drainage patterns, seasonal ground movement, and what it takes for a concrete structure to hold up under a real Texas climate.
I know how structures built for people hold up — foundations, load paths, seasonal ground movement — and I bring that same standard to every pool shell.
The result: thicker shells where the soil demands it. Smarter steel layouts. Plumbing designed for 30 years, not the warranty period. Design shaped by your actual lot, not a catalog template.
Meet the Owners
Two names. One standard.
When you hire Turner Custom Pools, you get the two people whose names are on it — not a sales team and a rotating crew.
Owner & Builder
Coy Turner
Coy came to pools from custom home building — 15+ years in custom construction, where a bad foundation or a blown schedule is a liability, not an oops. That’s the standard he brings to every pool shell.
He runs every jobsite himself. Born and raised in Seguin. And when you call, he answers his own phone.
Co-Owner & Operations
Ryan Johnson
Ryan spent his career in construction technology — at Procore and other industry-leading construction software companies, building the tools that keep builders organized and on schedule.
He brings that same systems discipline to the back office at Turner: scheduling, pricing, and the numbers that keep the whole operation running smoothly. It’s how a small shop stays tight without ever losing a detail.
Not Volume Tactics
Custom-Home Standards, Not Volume Tactics
Here’s what that actually means for you:
We Plan Before We Dig
Your pool design is locked, permits submitted, materials ordered, and crews scheduled before the first shovel touches your yard. That's why we're in the water about eight weeks from design lock.
One Point of Contact
Coy is the builder, the project manager, and the phone number you call. You don't navigate a sales floor. You don't end up talking to a project manager who started the job two weeks ago.
Every Pool Is Custom
No stock shapes. No 'we have this design and it works for most yards.' Every pool gets designed for the specific lot, the specific family, the specific backyard.
How It Works
Design and Contract, Then an Eight-Week Build.
Once your design and contract are done, we’re in the water in about eight weeks.
Design and Contract
Design Lock
Everything is designed and approved before earth moves.
Permits Submitted
City approvals start before excavation.
Materials & Crews Scheduled
Gunite, rebar, plumbing, tile, coping — all on order, and every crew has the dates booked.
Build — About Eight Weeks from Design Lock
Build
Excavation, steel, plumbing, gunite. The heavy work moves fast because every decision was made before it started.
Finish
Decking, tile, equipment, startup.
Water In
Fill, balance, hand over the controls.
That’s the whole timeline, start to finish.
Honest Boundaries
What We Don't Do
We Don't Sell Fiberglass
It's not the right structural choice for Hill Country soil. We could sell you a fiberglass pool faster — the mold goes in, you fill it, done. But it can crack under ground movement here, and I won't build that risk into your yard.
Small By Design
I build two pools at a time. That means your project doesn't get buried in a queue. I finish yours.
We Don't Hand Your Build to Strangers
The crews on your pool — excavation, steel, plumbing, gunite — are the same guys Coy has worked with for years, and Coy runs the site himself. Nothing gets passed to a crew we've never built with or a project manager you've never met.
Our Commitment
What We Do Do
We Build Complete Backyards
A pool is one piece. The deck, the outdoor kitchen, the fire pit, the lighting, the hardscaping — all of it is part of the same project. I design it all to work together, not as a pool company that drops a hole and walks away.
We Stay on Site
Coy is present most days during the build. You'll see me checking dimensions, reviewing the alignment of the coping, making sure the plumbing aligns with the plan. Problems are caught before they happen, not after.
We Keep Our Word
If I say it'll be there Tuesday, it's there Tuesday. If I say the design will be ready Wednesday, you have it Wednesday. These aren't marketing claims — they're the baseline expectation I've spent 15 years building a reputation on.
Where It Starts
The Conversation
Start at the beginning, which is a conversation. Not a sales presentation. Not a walk-through of pool shapes. Just talk about your yard, your family, and what you want this space to be.
From there: design. Planning. Build. Swimming.
