Marble Falls.
Custom gunite pools for Marble Falls — hard ground, long views, and the kind of grade that makes an infinity edge the obvious answer rather than an upsell.
Built for Marble Falls backyards.
Marble Falls is the hardest ground we dig and some of the best views we build toward. Granite and limestone sit close to the surface across much of the area, which makes excavation a real line item — and the same geology is why the lots step down toward the lakes the way they do.
Donna and Ben have been building gunite pools for over thirty years. Out here the honest conversation happens on the first visit: what the rock is going to cost, and whether the grade you have is enough to justify the negative edge you are picturing. Sometimes it is not, and we say so.
What we plan for here.
Granite and limestone
This is genuinely harder rock than the caliche we work in Cedar Park or Georgetown, and it can need heavier equipment or breaking. We assess it on the first visit and quote removal in writing. A builder who does not mention rock in Marble Falls has not looked at your lot.
Negative edges that earn it
A vanishing edge only works if there is something to vanish into and enough fall to make the effect read. Marble Falls lots above the lakes often have both. What they need underneath is engineered retaining, a correctly sized catch basin and pumps specified for the drop.
Permits and lakeside rules
City of Marble Falls building and electrical permits inside the city, Burnet County outside it, and LCRA has a say on properties close to the shoreline. We confirm which combination applies to your address and pull all of it.
Every service, in Marble Falls.
Gunite pools near Marble Falls.
We also build throughout Granite Shoals, Burnet, Bertram, and Horseshoe Bay, and across Burnet County and Central Texas.
Most of our gunite pools run $85k–$145k with standard plaster; premium finishes, water features, and larger footprints push toward $180k–$220k. Granite excavation and hillside retaining are the two things that push a Marble Falls quote up, and both are itemized before you sign.
Yes, and Marble Falls is one of the places the grade actually supports one. We will tell you on the first visit whether your fall is enough for the effect to read — if it is not, a raised bond beam and a spillover often give you more for less.
It adds cost and we quote it up front rather than treating it as a change order. How much depends on depth and hardness, which we check on the first visit. What we will not do is give you a low number and re-price you mid-dig.
Yes — plenty of what we build here is county rather than city, and some of it falls under LCRA review near the water. We confirm which applies to your address and handle the permitting either way.
