Pool Quest is a family owned and operated custom gunite pool and spa company. Pool Quest was founded by Walter Meek. Walter Meek is a native Texan and a Professional Engineer who is a graduate of Texas A & M University.
Walter’s expansive knowledge and engineering expertise has been sought after by various large corporations, and his past projects include work on the Boeing 777, the Lockheed YF-22, and the Joint Strike Fighter.
Just as times have changed, so has swimming pool technology and construction techniques. At Pool Quest, we have a full time, state registered professional engineer on staff as well as a pool construction consultant. The net result is over 45 years of combined engineering and pool construction experience.
It is resources like these that make it possible for Pool Quest to design and build virtually any pool that you, our customer, may imagine. We do not build pools by trial and error, the cheapest way possible or the way our ancestors did 75 years ago, as may be the case with other companies. Instead, we first determine your needs and then design and engineer a product to meet your requirements.

“Quality and service define everything we do at Pool Quest. Integrity and respect are non-negotiable for us. That’s why our ESG strategy is driven by our commitment to doing the right thing by our planet, our people, and our communities.”

Our pool journey started right before Covid hit in 2020. Kevin Strong designed the perfect pool for us at the time. But then with the world in such uncertainty, we decided to wait. Fat forward to 2022. We went in again to see Kevin. Talked about the pool and tweaked the design. Again, we decided to wait. When 2023 came around, we pulled the bandaid off. Kevin was so gracious when we asked for a completely different design. Now we were ready. From Kevin, Randy, Geoff, Walter, Ethan, Gina, Kim and ALL of the crews who had a part in building our pool, we will be forever grateful we chose Pool Quest. It is exactly what we wanted. A timeless classic that will give all of our family many years of enjoyment. I wouldn’t change a thing. Easiest company and best people we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. Trust me when we say, you will be blessed choosing Pool Quest for all of your outdoor projects. Next year on to the outdoor kitchen!

If you are looking for a trusted, professional Pool Company to build the backyard of your dreams...look no further.
In today's construction world, the word "painful" is a common description when one decides to build a backyard pool. Pool Quest is the exact opposite. From the initial project site meeting with a salesperson (Nick is the best, ask for him!), to concept, to project management (Randy & Kim are the best too!), to project quality checks, to completion; this company cares. There is something to be said about a company that is family owned by an Engineer and the next generation (another Engineer) is present to continue the ongoing excellence.
Please reach out to us if you want to know more about this company. We would love to share our experience with you. We could not be more happy with our INVESTMENT and would highly recommend this professional company for your backyard transformation.

From the moment we met James (Pool-Quest designer) we felt we were in great hands. He introduced and educated us on Pool-Quest, how the company, their process, the number of pools the built (limited to focus on quality, craftsmanship and accurate scheduling). From there is was on to design.
This was our first pool so we had a lot of questions. With each step of the design James educated us on each component, design options and costs. We had a few 3D rendering and video meetings that incorporated our home, yard and surrounding area. Intentionally incorporated to help us see our vision.
Once we started (from dig to swimming) we were advised by the Pool-Quest team daily. The process was flawless. Yes we had a few days of delay, but that was due to extreme heat. Pool-Quest makes sure their builders are not working in conditions that are not safe.
Their entire project management team are honest, helpful and offered suggestion during the build that furthered our vision.
When we were quoted 12-14 weeks our friends thought we were nuts. From permitting, dig, build, re-routing all irrigation, added electrical, pergola and the outdoor kitchen we were on target! Everyone has big delays, re-work and problems. Not us. From HOA to City permitting and our first swim they met the mark.
I would highly recommend Pool-Quest to anyone who is looking for a high-quality well designed and managed experience.
We could not be more happy.

Wow!!! Pool Quest went above and beyond to make our pool beautiful and exactly what we have dreamed of. They transformed our backyard into an Oasis escape from the rest of the world. The people at Pool Quest made a difference for us. From Nick McDaniel who helped us with our design and navigating all the obstacles that stood in the way of our dream pool to Kyle the project manager and Randy our landscape designer and all the workers who helped in this project. My wife and I are over the Moon excited and thrilled to have such a beautiful pool to escape to and share with our family and friends. Thanks again Pool Quest!!

Pool-Quest created a kitchen and dining area for our backyard. From contract signature to project completion Pool-Quest did everything they said they would. Handshakes in the business world are unfortunately a thing of the past but not with Pool-Quest. If they shake on it, consider it done. The level of detail with our project couldn’t be greater. Down to the last stone in place, plants being planted in just the right place, etc. Ethan Meek creates a 3D graphical video of what you are wanting to build and if you see in in the video you will see it in your project. AMAZING, AMAZING contractor Pool Quest. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED!!

My family had simply an amazing experience with this company. From the owners showing up for the initial walk-through and stepping us through our desires and concerns to project managers to the office manager - each gets a 5-star. One of the best overall companies I have ever dealt with. They worked with us on every detail to build us a beautiful pool and kept us well within our budget with NO surprises. They were upfront about any potential issues and kept me abreast of everything each step of the way. 5 Stars to Walter, Ethan, Rudy, and Suzie - if you are looking into getting a pool, I can not recommend Pool Quest enough.

Completely Blown Away! I'm a very particular person with a strong desire for things to be done the right way- the FIRST time. that's exactly what I got from these guys! I needed to get a mock design put together so I could make my decisions about the layout. After all, a pool is a semi-permanent purchase. I did my usual shopping around with other companies to see who could offer the best work. It became apparent which company was more suited for the kind of job I wanted to be done. The mock-up was incredible! It had my house in the design, and my backyard was spot on with my current setup. A couple of other companies did a good job getting us a design sketched up, but it was placed on a generic template of a backyard. Pool Quest will definitely continue to get my recommendations. Thank you all for your honesty and professionalism.

We hired Pool Quest to install our pool last spring. Ethan and Walter had several meetings with us to ensure they would design our pool to match what we were planning on spending. They helped with many explanations, designs and suggestions to ensure the process would be smooth and to our liking. They also answered our many calls for questions. As first time pool owners we were overwhelmed with the beautiful quality and workmanship provided. We absolutely love our pool! I highly recommend Pool Quest for your pool. You will not be disappointed!!

What a great experience. From the beginning, Kevin help us design the pool we wanted and fine-tune the details. The project was ahead of schedule and Kim was a rock star orchestrating this behind the scenes. It took five weeks since they started to complete and I was always kept informed of what was next and when. The owner Walter and son Ethan were over a couple of times making sure things were right at excavation and concrete pouring. There were two items that caught my attention during the project and they were addressed quickly. I will absolutely recommend pool quest for your pool project.

I hired Pool-Quest to build my pool and it is the most beautiful custom pool I have ever seen. Walter and Ethan inspected my yard and proposed the perfect size pool for the space. They recommended the pebble as an upgrade because of all of the trees in my yard. Walter was the only contractor to suggest the pebble. Now that I have it, I cannot imagine having anything less. Susie and Adriana kept me informed of each step of the construction and Rudy was always onsite very early in the morning to meet with the specific crew for the day. I am so happy I went with Pool-Quest.

Top Knotch professionals! They provided me with excellent designs for my new pool. The office demo was great! The work on the pool was outstanding and it fit my budget.

By far, the design by Pool Quest beat out all the rest in quality and efficiency. We have a small yard but the design and work quality is superb. We have gotten so many compliments on the functionality and look of our pool. No issues on timeline and any delays with construction were all weather related. Highly recommend, and if you want the best pool, go with PoolQuest!

My wife and I spent the better part of a year researching who we were going to go under contract with to build our pool. We selected Pool Quest because we felt they were the right-sized business and that we would receive timely responses and timely work. We had heard nothing but horror stories from friends and family regarding their pool projects and the companies they selected. The biggest difference in my mind between, the nightmare stories, was the size of the pool company. This may not be the biggest pool company in North Texas but they quoted us 16 weeks and we filled our pool during the 16th week. Not only was construction on time but the price was another deciding factor in choosing this company. We couldn't be happier with the pool, the experience working with Pool Quest, and working with the people at Pool Quest. Nick did a great job designing and Randy was a pleasure to work with on almost a daily basis during the project. I would highly recommend this company for your pool project.

Nicholas McDaniel created an awesome design for our freeform pool. He listened to our requests and maximized the space in our backyard. Derek Shires was the project manager and kept us in the know at all times. He was very knowledgeable and there were very few delays. He made sure the pool was exactly to specs. The pool looks amazing! I would definitely recommend Pool Quest.

We chose Pool Quest for our backyard renovations, including gutting a 20+ year old pool, landscaping, drainage, re-pouring all new concrete, and new equipment. Overall, they were top-notch to deal with. Ethan and Walter came out from Ft. Worth to Dallas to evaluate our situation, had a professional design ready in 2 weeks, and sent us a YouTube video of the design.
They were professional, and Randy (on-site) was regularly at our house and stayed in constant communication with us. The job took longer than expected due to weather (tornadoes, then cold, then rain), but that's to be expected in Texas in the Fall/Winter.
Highly recommend Pool-Quest if you want a quality job completed without feeling like you're being sold to non-stop.

Pool Quest built our pool at the end of 2019, I have waited to put this review up to make sure they continued with the great service we received during the process and it has. Pool quest has been responsive and taken care of us. Kevin designed our pool, we could not have picked a better person to help us with the design. He listened and brought our dreams to life.Derek was the our Project lead, he keep us informed every step of the way and resolved every issue we had. Both Kevin and Derek have gone above and beyond to ensure we would be happy with every thing. We had two small problems with the pool after it was completed and Pool Quest (Derek) came out without delay and fixed the issues.

Highly recommended! Quality and building process was the main reason we choose Pool-Quest. On excavation day, Walter (Owner), his son, Derick, and the whole crew were triple checking everything. Nicholas and his great design expertise sealed the deal.
From start to finish, the communication was excellent and exceeded our expectations. Derick, Project Manager and a Army Veteran, took care of any issues or concerns we had during the building process.
Our family will enjoy the pool for many many years. Thank you Derick, Nicholas, and the rest team at Pool-Quest!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Pool-Quest to transform my backyard into the oasis of my dreams, and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the team at Pool-Quest was professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to making my vision a reality.
Throughout the design process, the team listened carefully to my ideas and provided thoughtful suggestions that ultimately enhanced the final product. They were patient and understanding as I worked through various design iterations, and they always put my needs and desires first.
The construction process was equally impressive. The crew was efficient, respectful, and worked diligently to ensure that the project was completed on time and within budget. They communicated with me regularly to provide updates on the progress, and they always made sure to answer any questions or concerns I had.
The final product is absolutely stunning. The attention to detail and quality of workmanship is evident in every aspect of the pool and surrounding landscaping. I have received countless compliments from friends and family, and I have even had strangers stop to admire the beauty of my backyard oasis.
Overall, I highly recommend Pool-Quest to anyone looking to transform their backyard into a beautiful and functional outdoor living space. They exceeded my expectations in every way, and I will continue to sing their praises for years to come. Thank you, Pool-Quest, for making my backyard dreams a reality!

We used Pool Quest for our 2022 build. I had initially set up appointments with 3 reputable companies. My initial appointment with Pool Quest designer Kevin S. was informative and extremely professional. I can’t say the same about the other companies I met with. We later met with Kevin in the design studio and were very impressed with the design he came up with as well as the presentation. This was a huge help in being able to visualize the project and see the different options available.
We decided to then move forward with Pool Quest for an in-ground pool, stone fireplace, stamped concrete patio extension, and pergola. At this time our project manager was Jeff Walsh. He has been amazing from start to finish! We were always kept informed step by step the entire way. Our construction site was managed expertly and always left tidy at the end of the day. Even when the project was completed and the cold weather moved in, Jeff reached out to make sure we had everything winterized properly to avoid any damage. Being new pool owners, this type of customer service is invaluable. If we move and need another pool project, I wouldn’t hesitate to use Pool Quest again.

Pool Quest was AMAZING, starting with Nicholas coming to our home upon inquiry to the finished product!! The company has excellent scheduling processes, as when one part of the job was complete, the next crew was out the following day to start the next project/phase. It was like clockwork. Every single person we interacted with, from Nicholas in sales, to Kim and Gina in the office; Randy heading up the project and the contractors on the ground doing the work - every single person was exceptional. If you're looking for a quality product and phenomenal service, I highly recommend contacting Pool Quest for your install. End result: our pool looks absolutely beautiful and we will get years of enjoyment out of it. We could not have asked for a better experience.

I recently had the pleasure of working with Pool Quest to build a pool in my backyard, and I cannot recommend them highly enough. From start to finish, the entire process was professional, efficient, and stress-free.
First and foremost, the quality of the work was outstanding. The team at Pool Quest clearly takes pride in their craft and made sure that every detail was perfect. The pool itself is beautiful and exactly what I had envisioned. The materials used were top-notch and I can tell that this pool will last for years to come.
The customer service was also excellent. From my first interaction with Kevin Strong to the final walkthrough with the project manager, everyone was friendly, knowledgeable, and responsive. They were always available to answer my questions, address any concerns, and make sure that I was happy with the progress of the project.
The project was completed on time and within budget, which was impressive given the scope of the work. The crew was always punctual and respectful of my property, and they made sure to clean up thoroughly at the end of each day.
In short, I am extremely happy with my experience with Pool Quest. They exceeded my expectations in every way and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a pool-building company. Thank you for creating my dream backyard oasis!

Our Pool Quest experience was phenomenal, We met with Nick and explained what we were wanting and he came up with a great design he even gave us some great suggestions! Once we agreed on the design and signed the contract we began the process and I was very impressed with how smoothly everything went, and appreciated all of the communication between us, the office and Jeff. Everyone with Pool Quest who had hands on building our backyard oasis were professional, and always available for questions. This was our 2nd pool build and the experience was 100 times better than we had with the 1st builder. If your looking for quality, professionalism and timeliness of project completion go with Pool Quest, you won’t be disappointed!

After reviewing Pool Quest's credentials and insurance history, we made the decision to hire Pool Quest to build our pool. The process from the design stage, construction, and to the very end was extremely professional, pleasant, and built as promised. There were some hiccups along the way which is common when it comes to construction, but they were on point throughout it all. Even the owner came to evaluate the construction stages and final product. We will definitely hire them again if we ever move to another house that doesn't have a pool. I highly recommend their service.
