Texas Pool Butlers

Thinking about building a pool? Don’t wait until the weather warms up to start planning! ☀️

Every year, we hear from homeowners in April who are ready to build a pool and want to be swimming ASAP. The reality is, a new pool typically takes 8–12 weeks to build, depending on the project.

That means if you wait until spring to get started, you could be spending a good portion of summer waiting on construction instead of enjoying your backyard.

Starting the process now gives you time to plan, design, and build without waiting for the spring rush. Get ahead of the schedule and put yourself in a position to enjoy your new pool by next summer.

And one more thing: pool construction costs aren’t getting any cheaper. If you’ve been thinking about building, there’s no reason to put off getting the process started.

Your dream backyard starts with a conversation.

Proper preparation is everything. 🔨

Before we install a new pool finish, especially on an older pool, we chip out the existing plaster down to the gunite.

This removes loose and deteriorated material, exposes a solid surface, and allows us to identify any areas that need attention before the new finish goes in.

We don’t just cover up the old surface — we properly prep the pool so the new finish has the best foundation possible.

Quality starts before the new finish ever goes in. 💪

Jandy iQ30 saves the day! ⚙️📱

We had a customer whose existing automation system didn’t give us access to change the pool schedule. The Jandy iQ30 gave us the solution—and a whole lot more.

Today, we’re installing the iQ30 on a Jandy AquaLink system, giving the homeowner access to the iAquaLink app and the ability to control their pool system right from their phone.

From anywhere in the world—as long as the antenna has Wi-Fi access—you can control your pool equipment, adjust schedules, monitor the system, and manage your pool remotely.

In this walkthrough, we’ll show you:
🔧 How we installed the iQ30
📶 How we connected it to Wi-Fi
📱 How we connected the system to the iAquaLink app
⚙️ What to check before installing

Important: Make sure your AquaLink automation system is Revision R or newer to ensure compatibility with the iQ30 antenna.

Another upgrade that makes pool ownership a whole lot easier.

One-month checkup on one of our Katy projects that we recently featured. 👀

And just look at how this pool is holding up!

The NPT StoneScapes Mini finish still looks incredibly uniform and beautiful. Our Orenda startup process definitely played a role in helping protect the new surface and maintain its appearance after the initial fill.

The way the marble coping complements the plaster color, paired with the new spray decking, completely transformed this backyard. What was once an outdated pool now has a clean, fresh, and timeless look.

We’re proud of how this one turned out—and even more excited to see how it continues to look after the first month.

🏊‍♂️ Thinking about building a pool? Here’s how we get started.

Building your dream backyard starts with a simple conversation.

📞 Step 1: Quick Phone Call
We’ll chat about your backyard goals, ideas, and what you’re looking to build. From there, we’ll schedule a time to meet at your property.

📐 Step 2: Property & Survey
Before our in-person meeting, we’ll need a copy of your property survey. This allows us to review your lot and determine what is possible for your pool project.

🏡 Step 3: In-Person Consultation
We’ll walk the property together, talk through your wants and needs, and discuss the best options for your backyard.

🖥️ Step 4: 3D Pool Design
Once we have a clear understanding of your vision, we’ll create a custom 3D design so you can see what your new backyard could look like.

📊 Step 5: Design & Estimate Review
When the design is complete, we’ll schedule another meeting to sit down together, go over your 3D pool design, and review the estimate.

From the first phone call to the final design, our goal is to make the pool-building process clear, organized, and exciting.

Eight years ago, I took a leap of faith and started Texas Pool Butlers.

I quit my job, started cleaning pools, and began building the business one customer at a time. I didn’t have a big team or a lot of equipment — just my parents’ pool equipment, a lot of determination, and a vision for what this could become.

What started as a small pool service company has grown into so much more.

Over the years, we’ve continued to learn, grow, and take on new challenges. Today, we’re not just maintaining pools — we’re building them from the ground up.

Looking back at where we started eight years ago compared to where we are today is something I’m incredibly proud of.

Thank you to every customer, friend, and person who has supported us along the way.

Here’s a quick look at what we did to bring this pool back to life!

We started by bead blasting the calcium buildup from the existing tile, then sealed the tile to help protect it and keep it looking beautiful for years to come.

We also:
🔹 Installed a brand-new skimmer
🔹 Added a new code-compliant main drain
🔹 Completely stripped the existing pool surface
🔹 Finished it with NPT StoneScapes Mini Pebble – Dapple Gray

The finished product came out spectacular! 🤩 From the updated equipment to the new interior finish, this pool is ready to be enjoyed for many summers to come.

Here’s what happens if you wait until April.

Every crew in Houston is six jobs deep, the builder at your kitchen table is quoting a schedule he can’t keep, and the second your deposit clears, the calls slow down. ⏳

You end up staring at an open hole in July while your kids swim at the neighbor’s house. ❌

Start now and you skip all of it. ☀️

From the first dig to the first cannonball, then weekly cleanings with the same crew long after the build is done.
Designed now, dug this fall, swimming by spring. 💧

NPT Stonescapes Mini – Aqua White 💎💦

The clients made an excellent choice with this finish! Aqua White gives the pool a beautiful, clean look while adding the durability of an exposed aggregate surface.

Unlike traditional white plaster, StoneScapes is a stronger, more durable finish designed to hold up longer and maintain its beauty for years to come when properly maintained.

Here’s a look at the installation process from start to finish. 👀

We’ll be back once the pool is filled to begin the startup process and get this beautiful new finish off to the right start!

Another beautiful pool transformation by Texas Pool Butlers. 🤝🏼

We just wrapped up Day 6 on this beautiful NPT Stonescapes Mini Pebble in Dapple Gray, and the surface is looking absolutely beautiful and uniform. 🔥

We love the Orenda startup process because it’s designed to protect the new finish and help it cure properly from day one. The proof is in the pool!

For the past six days, we’ve been on-site brushing the entire pool and carefully balancing the water chemistry within the proper LSI (Langelier Saturation Index) range. This helps ensure the new surface cures properly, stays protected, and develops the beautiful, consistent finish our clients expect.

A beautiful pool finish isn’t just about what happens on installation day — the startup process matters.

Six days down, and this Dapple Gray is looking 🔥!
