Build Your Backyard Around a Swimming Pool in Bryan, TX

A pool is the biggest single upgrade most families make to their yard, so the contractor you pick matters as much as the design. In Bryan, the ground is heavy clay, the summers are punishing, and the water season stretches most of the year, which means a pool here has to be engineered for local conditions and built to last.

We’re Legacy Outdoor Services, owned by Trevor and Chelsi Young, and we’ve built outdoor spaces across the Brazos Valley since 2016.

Every build starts with a real design conversation and ends with a signed scope that spells out the cost and timeline. That written contract is the heart of how we work, because a project this size should never leave you guessing.

We install in-ground gunite and fiberglass pools. We don’t do above-ground or modular pools, so what you get is a permanent, custom pool designed for your yard.

So, What Does a Pool in Bryan Actually Cost?

Pools vary more than almost any other project, because size, materials, and features swing the number a lot. Here’s the honest range we build within, straight from our own projects.

A smaller in-ground gunite pool with minimal features usually lands between $50,000 and $75,000.
A larger gunite pool with the must-have features most families want runs $80,000 to $115,000. This is our most popular tier.
A complex, large gunite pool with all the extras, spa, tanning ledge, water features, and premium decking, generally starts around $115,000 and climbs past $150,000.

An average pool designed and built by a professional here runs between $80,000 and $115,000, and ongoing maintenance is roughly $100 a month. Most builds take about seven weeks, though weather and the scope of the project can shift that.

If spreading the cost helps, we offer financing up to $200,000 through Lyon Financial and GreenSky, so the budget conversation stays flexible.

How Your Pool Comes Together

Design and quote

We meet at your home, study the yard and soil, design the pool around how you’ll use it, and put the full scope and price in writing.

Excavation and shell

We dig, form, and shoot the gunite shell, then set the plumbing and structural work that everything else depends on.

Decking and finish

Coping, tile, decking, and any water features go in, followed by plaster and startup.

Fill and hand off

We fill the pool, balance the water, and walk you through care before it’s yours to enjoy.

Swimming Pool FAQs

How long does it take to build a pool in Bryan?

Most of our in-ground pools take around seven weeks from excavation to fill. Weather delays and a larger, more complex scope can extend that, and we build the realistic timeline into your written contract.

Gunite or fiberglass, which should I choose?

Gunite is fully custom in shape and size and suits most of our builds, while fiberglass installs faster with a smooth finish. We walk through the trade-offs based on your yard, your features, and your budget during the design visit.

Do I need a permit to build a pool in Bryan?

Yes. In-ground pools require permits and inspections through the City of Bryan, and there are barrier and safety-fence requirements to meet. We manage that process as part of the build.

What does pool maintenance run each month?

Budget around $100 a month for routine upkeep, chemicals, and cleaning. The exact figure depends on the pool’s size, features, and how you choose to maintain it.

Can you add a spa, tanning ledge, or water features?

Absolutely. Those extras live in our higher tier and are some of the most requested add-ons. We design them in from the start so they feel built-in, not tacked on.

Will a pool work with my existing landscaping and patio?

It will. Because we handle outdoor living as a whole, we design the pool to tie into your decking, patio, and planting rather than fighting them.

Bryan sits at the heart of the Brazos Valley, a city with deep Texas roots, a walkable Downtown, and the energy that comes from sharing a region with Texas A&M just next door. Summers here are long and genuinely hot, which is exactly why a backyard pool earns its keep from spring well into fall. If you’re new to the area, the city’s official travel guide at Destination Bryan is a good window into local life, and the City of Bryan’s development and permitting office handles the pool permits and inspections that come with a build like this. It’s a place where families put down roots, and a pool is one of the best ways to make the yard the center of that life.
