Pete Ordaz — Building Custom Pools in San Antonio Since 1996
Built on Nearly 30 Years of Trust
Pool Concepts was founded in 1997 by Pete Ordaz, who began building custom swimming pools in 1983. As a lifelong San Antonio resident, Pete built the company on the simple philosophy that while beautiful designs matter, quality construction matters even more. Today, the values he built the company on continue to guide every project. Pool Concepts remains a family-owned and operated business, serving homeowners throughout San Antonio and surrounding areas with the same commitment to craftsmanship, honesty, and personal service that established its reputation nearly three decades ago.
A Different Kind of Pool Builder
Choosing a pool builder is about more than selecting a design—it’s about choosing the company you’ll trust with one of the largest investments you’ll make in your home. Unlike many large builders, Pool Concepts isn’t driven by sales quotas or volume. We intentionally remain a family business because we believe our clients deserve personal attention, responsive communication, and a team that genuinely cares about the finished product. When you build with Pool Concepts, you’ll work with experienced professionals who know your project, answer your questions, and remain available long after construction is complete.
Built for South Texas
For nearly 30 years, Pool Concepts has designed and built pools specifically for South Texas homes. From limestone and caliche soil to hard municipal water and challenging Hill Country elevations, we understand the conditions that affect how a pool should be engineered and built.
That local knowledge influences everything—from structural design and excavation to material selection and finish recommendations—helping ensure your investment is built to perform beautifully for years to come.
Quality You Can Count On
Every Pool Concepts pool is thoughtfully designed around the homeowner, the property, and the way your family wants to enjoy your outdoor space.
Our commitment includes:
- Truly custom pool designs—never cookie-cutter layouts.
- Premium materials selected for South Texas conditions.
- Careful project management from design through completion.
- Assistance with permits, inspections, and municipal requirements.
- Continued support after construction through service, repairs, renovations, and warranty assistance.
Our goal isn’t simply to build a beautiful pool—it’s to provide an enjoyable building experience and the confidence that your investment has been built the right way.
A Reputation Earned One Backyard at a Time
For nearly three decades, homeowners across the San Antonio area have trusted Pool Concepts because we believe relationships matter just as much as craftsmanship. That commitment is reflected in our BBB A+ Rating, Google Guaranteed status, and the many homeowners who have shared their experiences through online reviews and who have referred their friends and family to us. We know building a pool can feel overwhelming. Our job is to make the process clear, enjoyable, and stress-free while delivering a backyard your family will enjoy for years to come. At Pool Concepts, we’re not just building swimming pools—we’re helping families create a place where memories are made.

Pool Design & Construction
Pool Concepts designs and builds custom inground pools for San Antonio homeowners throughout Helotes, Boerne, Fair Oaks Ranch, and the Texas Hill Country. Every pool is designed around your backyard, your budget, and the way your family lives outdoors.
Renovations & Replastering
San Antonio's hard water and intense UV exposure wear down pool surfaces faster than most climates. Pool Concepts restores aging pools with new plaster finishes, tile, coping, and deck resurfacing — making your pool look and feel brand new.
Pool Service, Repair, & Maintenance
Regular maintenance is what keeps a San Antonio pool looking great year-round. Pool Concepts provides weekly service, chemical balancing, equipment repair, and seasonal care for homeowners throughout the Hill Country.
