Custom Pool Design & Construction in Towne Lake, Cypress, TX

Build the Backyard Around the Way You Live Outdoors

A pool can serve very different purposes for different homeowners. For one family, it may be the place where children spend summer afternoons. For another, it may be primarily a space for entertaining friends. Someone else may want a quieter environment with a spa, comfortable seating and carefully planned lighting.

The design should reflect those differences.

• Swimming
• Family recreation
• Entertaining
• Outdoor dining
• Lounging
• Spa relaxation
• Evening gatherings
• Landscape views
• Poolside seating
• Privacy

Custom Pools Designed Around Towne Lake Homes

A custom pool should respond to the property. The location of the home, patio, doors, landscaping, fences and available yard space can influence how the pool should be positioned.

• Custom geometric pools
• Freeform swimming pools
• Integrated spas
• Baja shelves
• Built-in benches
• Custom entry steps
• Decorative tile
• Custom coping
• Pool decking
• Water features
• Landscape integration
• Pool lighting

Think Beyond the Pool Itself

A finished backyard should answer several questions:

• Where do people enter the pool?
• Where do they sit?
• Where do guests gather?
• How does someone move from the house to the pool?
• Where does the landscape begin?
• How does the backyard work after sunset?

These decisions can be addressed during the design rather than after construction.

Connecting the Pool to Outdoor Living

One of the biggest differences between a basic pool installation and a complete outdoor environment is how the pool connects to the rest of the property.

A strong design can create a progression such as: Home → Patio → Outdoor Living → Pool → Landscape.

This allows the pool to become part of the home's lifestyle rather than a separate backyard feature.

Lighting, water features and outdoor gathering spaces can change the atmosphere after sunset.

Cement & Gunite Pool Construction

Homeowners looking for extensive customization may choose a permanent cement or concrete swimming pool. Creative Lifestyle Pools designs and builds custom concrete/cement pools using gunite construction methods.

• Pool shape
• Pool dimensions
• Depths
• Steps
• Benches
• Baja shelves
• Spa configurations
• Water features
• Tile
• Coping
• Finishes

Depending on the project, finish options may include plaster, pebble, quartz and glass tile.

Pool Decking & Backyard Flow

The area surrounding the pool is important to the finished experience. Decking establishes where people walk, sit and gather.

• House
• Patio
• Pool
• Spa
• Outdoor kitchen or entertaining area
• Landscape
• Other backyard spaces

Pool Lighting for Towne Lake Evenings

The backyard does not stop being useful when the sun goes down. Pool lighting can highlight the water while improving visibility around steps, spas and other features.

• Pool interiors
• Spa areas
• Steps
• Water features
• Decking
• Walkways
• Landscape
• Outdoor gathering spaces

Pool Equipment Planned From the Beginning

The equipment system is one of the less visible but most important parts of a swimming pool. Creative Lifestyle Pools can plan equipment around the pool's size, circulation requirements and selected features.

• Pumps
• Filtration
• Circulation
• Automation
• Lighting controls
• Spa operation
• Water features
• Water-treatment systems
• Equipment-pad organization

Ozone Pool Systems

Homeowners interested in additional pool-water treatment may consider ozone. Ozone can function as an additional oxidation component within a properly designed circulation and sanitation system.

It is not a replacement for appropriate chlorine sanitation.

Alkaline Pool Water & Water Management

A pool's long-term performance depends on appropriate water chemistry. Creative Lifestyle Pools can discuss alkaline-balanced pool water as part of a broader water-management strategy.

• pH
• Total alkalinity
• Water balance
• Filtration
• Circulation
• Pool finish
• Equipment
• Routine testing

Renovating an Existing Towne Lake Pool

If you already own a pool, you may not need to start from scratch. An existing pool can sometimes be transformed through a carefully planned renovation.

• Worn pool finishes
• Dated tile
• Aging coping
• Older equipment
• Poor lighting
• An outdated spa
• Old water features
• An underused pool layout
• Surrounding outdoor areas that no longer fit the home

When a Pool Renovation Makes More Sense

Outdated appearance

A new finish, tile and coping may significantly change the look.

Old equipment

Modernizing equipment can become part of the renovation scope.

Poor nighttime appearance

Updated pool and landscape lighting can change the backyard after dark.

Disconnected outdoor living

Decking and surrounding areas may be redesigned to improve the relationship between the pool and the home.

Family needs have changed

A spa, seating area, Baja shelf or other feature may make the pool more appropriate for the current household.

Pool Design Mistakes to Avoid

• Designing only for daytime use
• Making the pool the only outdoor feature
• Adding features without considering the layout
• Ignoring the view from inside the home
• Treating equipment as an afterthought
• Renovating the pool without the surrounding space
