Pool Builders Coachella Valley & OC

At Teserra, we specialize as pool builders in the Coachella Valley and Orange County, CA. When homeowners in Southern California picture their dream swimming pool, they want more than a simple shell in the ground.

Design-Led, Detail-Driven

Great pools start with great design. Teserra’s process begins with a collaborative discovery session to understand your space, tastes, and long-term goals. Using site measurements, sun studies, and soil considerations, our designers can create 3D renderings that bring your swimming pool and surrounding outdoor living areas to life before any dirt is moved. Expect thoughtful layout decisions, like sightlines from the kitchen, play zones for kids, and privacy from neighbors, that make your pool feel natural and functional, never forced.

Engineering You Can Trust

Beneath the beauty is serious engineering. Teserra handles structural calculations, geotechnical coordination, and municipal permitting in-house, ensuring your pool construction meets local codes and best practices for the Coachella Valley and Orange County’s varied terrain. From steel reinforcement and shotcrete thickness to plumbing hydraulics and electrical bonding, every technical detail is specified to deliver performance, efficiency, and longevity.

For over four decades, Teserra Outdoors has designed and built breathtaking outdoor retreats.

Southern California isn’t just a geographically defined region, it’s a way of life. And perhaps no swimming pool design company has done more to enhance that enviable lifestyle than Teserra Outdoors, from Irvine and Orange County to Palm Springs and Coachella Valley. From that refreshing midnight dip on a warm summer night to that soothing soak on a sun-drenched afternoon in February, it’s a way of life worth celebrating.

Precision Pool Construction

Teserra’s build teams are dedicated specialists, not generalists. Excavation is performed with exacting care to preserve plan geometry. Steel crews tie rebar cages that resist movement and cracking. The shotcrete application is compact, uniform, and properly cured, which is foundational to pool integrity. Plumbing manifolds are pressure-tested and designed for balanced flow to all returns, features, and in-floor systems. Tile and coping are set with laser-true alignment, and interior finishes – from smooth pebble to polished glass bead – are meticulously installed for both comfort and durability. The result: a swimming pool that looks exceptional on day one and keeps performing for years.

Custom Features That Elevate Outdoor Living

Whether you want a tranquil resort vibe or an entertainer’s showpiece, Teserra integrates features that amplify your Outdoor Living:

  • Water Elements: Sheer descents, scuppers, laminar jets, infinity edges, and naturalistic waterfalls.
  • Fire & Light: Fire bowls, fire pits, and programmable LED lighting scenes that transition from family time to evening ambiance.
  • Hydrotherapy: Integrated spas with hydro-massage jets, air systems, and ergonomic seating for restorative comfort.
  • Tanning Ledges & Baja Shelves: Shallow sun-ledges perfect for loungers and little swimmers.
  • Automation: App-based control of pumps, lights, heaters, sanitization, and water features: set scenes, schedules, and energy-saving modes with a tap.
  • Energy Efficiency: Variable-speed pumps, high-efficiency heaters, solar integration, and smart filtration strategies that reduce utility costs without sacrificing performance.

Materials That Marry Form and Function

A Teserra pool is finished like fine architecture. Expect curated tile collections, natural stone or premium porcelain coping, and decking options, such as travertine, pavers, or decorative concrete, chosen for slip resistance, heat reflectivity, and year-round durability. Stainless steel hardware, cartridge or DE filtration, and robust sanitization (salt, UV, or ozone) are specified to match your usage and maintenance preferences.

Beyond the Waterline: Complete Outdoor Living Spaces in the Coachella Valley & Orange County, CA

Because a pool is the anchor of your yard but not the whole story, Teserra designs cohesive outdoor living environments. That includes hardscaping elements like outdoor kitchens with built-in grills and refrigeration, shade structures like pergolas and pavilions, seating walls, fireplaces, and landscape lighting that extends enjoyment well past sunset. Plant palettes are selected for coastal climates, and micro-irrigation is engineered to protect hardscapes while conserving water. We also offer artificial turf and putting greensWith Teserra, pool construction becomes a turnkey outdoor living transformation.

Professional Pool Remodels and Renovations

Already have a pool that is showing its age? At Teserra, our renovation team modernizes outdated shapes, repairs structural issues, upgrades equipment, and refreshes finishes. Popular remodels include adding tanning shelves, converting to energy-efficient equipment, re-tiling, resurfacing interiors, and reimagining decking to create a cohesive, contemporary aesthetic. It is a smart way to help boost curb appeal and daily enjoyment without starting from scratch.

“We were building a home in Southern California while still living in Florida. So we had to trust experts on the other side of the country to create what we envisioned. Adam Rodriguez, our Teserra consultant, was great to work with. He knows landscape design and plant materials.

Tim Henriques

“We worked with Adam Rodriquez on the hardscape and landscape for our new home in the Domani Development. Adam was a great resource for ideas as well as very patient with the many iterations of the design I requested in order to stay in our budget. 

Bette Johnson

“We had a little “emergency” with our pool. Ryan arrived, after hours, which we were very thankful. He knew right away what the issue was, and what to do. Ryan had to return the next day to replace a part. Ryan is a top notch Customer Service Manager! 

S Meier

Could not be more pleased! We started with the Teserra team before we even selected a property. Everyone on the Teserra team (John Hardwick, Brock Berry, and Jessie Martinez) plus all the providers they chose were wonderful.

Barb Riker

Ryan Kindel at Teserra outdoors was very knowledgeable about my pool remodel. I had 7 bids and chose Teserra outdoors because Ryan Kindel was very informative about every aspect of my pool remodel more so than any of the other pool companies, and was able to work within my price range!!!

Delanda Clark

Teserra was terrific to work with and built a beautiful pool and yard in what we felt was a timely manner. We highly recommend both Adam and Teserra!”

Brad Seiple

“We are so thrilled with our Teserra pool. Adam was great to work with and he wasn’t just the salesman. Fernando who was the on-site manager was also terrific. All in all the project was on time and on budget and we have a beautiful pool. We can highly recommend Teserra and Adam Rodriguez.”
