Custom Pool Builders by Beyond Blue Group

A custom pool is one of the largest investments a homeowner makes in their property, and the difference between a great build and a regrettable one shows up over time. Without the right team, even a beautiful design can lead to mismatched architecture, finishes that fade after a few seasons, or a project where no single contractor takes ownership of the result.

Beyond Blue is a design-build firm. Our team handles design, engineering, and construction in-house, which keeps accountability in one place and the finished pool faithful to the original vision. Every build is shaped around your specific property and engineered to perform for decades.

  • Experienced design-build professionals
  • Premium materials and structural craftsmanship
  • Long-lasting, custom-engineered pools

What Custom Pool Building Actually Involves

Custom pool building means designing and constructing a pool specifically for your property, your architecture, and the way you intend to use the space. Every shape, every finish, and every detail is shaped to work in concert with the home and landscape, so the finished pool feels like an extension of the property rather than an addition to it.

At Beyond Blue, our design-build team handles each project from first sketch through final fill. We collaborate with you on the design, engineer every structural element ourselves, and manage construction in-house. The result is a pool that delivers on the original vision, performs reliably for decades, and adds genuine value to the home.

What’s included

What's Included in a Custom Pool Build

  1. 01 Custom Shell Construction We hand-cast steel-reinforced concrete shells on-site, or set precision-molded fiberglass shells on carefully graded bases. Both options are engineered for monolithic strength and built to handle every Midwest season.
  2. 02 Integrated Spas and Water Features Spas, spillways, scuppers, and water features are designed as part of the pool from the start, not added later. Materials are selected to age alongside the rest of the build, so the entire space reads as one cohesive environment.
  3. 03 Sun Shelves, Tanning Ledges, and Bench Seating We shape custom ledges, shelves, and benches around how you plan to use the pool, whether that means family lounging, entertaining, or quiet evenings in the water. Every seating element is designed around your life, not a generic template.
  4. 04 Custom Tile, Plaster, and Aggregate Finishes Each finish is specified for your specific water chemistry, climate, and aesthetic. Our selections include hand-cut tile, durable aggregates, and premium plaster blends, all chosen for how they will perform over decades rather than how they photograph the day the pool is filled.
  5. 05 Equipment and Automation We integrate energy-smart pumps, automated chemical controls, variable-speed filtration, and custom lighting for quiet, efficient operation. Every system is tested and balanced before we hand the pool over.
  6. 06 Outdoor Living Integration When the pool is designed alongside patios, shade structures, and landscape, the entire backyard functions as one cohesive environment. Our team coordinates the full outdoor design so that nothing feels added on after the fact.

How it works

What Our Custom Pool Build Process Looks Like

01/ 05

Start your project
  1. 01 — Stage

    Consultation and Site Evaluation

    We begin by understanding how you intend to use the space. Our team then walks the property, measuring grade, soil, drainage, and access. This early work helps us identify what is possible and appropriate for your specific site before any design work begins.

  2. 02 — Stage

    Design and 3D Visualization

    We sketch your pool, refine the design, and render it in scaled 3D. You will see exactly how the pool sits in the landscape, including light, shadow, water flow, and surrounding hardscape, before any final commitment.

  3. 03 — Stage

    Engineering, Permits, and Material Selection

    Once the design is approved, we finalize structural plans, secure permits, and confirm finish selections. Every decision, from rebar specifications to tile selection, is documented in writing before construction begins.

  4. 04 — Stage

    Construction and Installation

    Our in-house team manages excavation, shell construction, plumbing, equipment, decking, and finish work. Quality is checked at each phase of the build, not only at completion.

  5. 05 — Stage

    Final Walkthrough and Owner Orientation

    Before the project closes, we test every system, balance the water, and walk you through your new pool. By the end of the orientation, you will know how to operate the equipment, manage seasonal maintenance, and understand what to expect from your pool over the years to come.

Why Beyond Blue

Why Homeowners Choose Beyond Blue for Custom Pool Builds

Good pool building comes down to design integrity, structural craftsmanship, and real accountability across the full project. We manage every phase ourselves and treat each build like the long-term investment it actually is.

Design and Build Under One Roof

The team that designs your pool is the same team that builds it. We are accountable from first concept to final fill, with no fragmented subcontractor handoffs and no surprises at the final walkthrough.

A Decade-Plus of Midwest Experience

Since 2012, we have been building across Kansas City, Omaha, the Lake of the Ozarks, and Columbia. We understand the soil, the seasonal extremes, and what it takes to build a pool that performs reliably in this climate for decades.

Structural Craftsmanship

Every concrete pool we build starts with hand-laid steel reinforcement and gunite or shotcrete shells that are inspected at each stage of construction. Our fiberglass shells are precision-set on carefully graded bases. The result is a pool engineered for monolithic strength.

Material and Finish Quality

We specify plaster, aggregate, gelcoat, and tile based on what will hold up to your conditions and daily use, not on what is easiest to install.

Clear, Collaborative Communication

You will always know what is happening on your project, when, and why. Decisions are made together, timelines are honored, and expectations are documented in writing rather than left to verbal exchange.

Built for the Long Run

Our pools are designed for homeowners who plan to stay in their property. Every engineering decision is made for thirty-year performance rather than for a finished photograph.

Reviews

What our
clients say

Of all the contractors I have ever dealt with, Beyond Blue Outdoor Group has been the only one I would not hesitate to promote to my closest friends. Beyond Blue’s BEAUTIFUL rock hardscape around our pool has truly been the focal point of our back yard and we could not be more proud. Their crew was on time every day, kept a clean jobsite and was extremely easy to work with. My wife and I have had our fair share of bad contractor experiences, so it’s refreshing to know that there are still honest ones out there. Thank you.
Jeremy M. Blue Springs
We installed these huge sliding doors in our new home and then realize you can never leave them open because in Missouri you have bugs! Our new screen has changed that, along with giving us some shade at certain times of the day. We have nothing but praise from start to finish with Dylan and Beyond Blue.
Russell, C. Retractable screens
We struggled to get even a response from other shade companies. Dylan not only answered the phone but was at my house the next day. I’ve had power screens before (shadeworks), the experience with Dylan and the beyond blue team and the product blew us away. Shades are gorgeous, project done on time and budget, and the install was very professional and nice to work with. I’m a big fan on the product, the company, and Dylan; Two thumbs up from us!
Everett, W. Retractable screens
I got this lead from a good friend of mine who recently had screens installed at his house so I reached out to Dylan to replace my existing screen and to add two more. His follow through and communication were very good, installation was perfect and so far, we are very happy With the product. I would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting to add outdoor screens to their patio or lanai.
Acten, D. Retractable screens
We had motorized screens installed on our back patio and the finished product was better than I could have imagined. They blend in nicely with our house and give us the option to have them up or down depending on the time of day. We worked with Ryan Salyer and he was great during the entire process and made sure everything was perfect and to our liking before accepting our final payment. We have already had lots of neighbors comment on how cool and nice they look. Would highly recommend Ryan and Beyond Blue Group!
Walsh, B. Retractable screens
Have to share the amazing experience we had with the install of our motorized screen! Ted was such a great person to work with, and once our order was in he managed to get us our screen installed for a family reunion we were having even though they had multiple projects going. Ted and Manuel did a wonderful job installing the screen and we are already trying to work the other sides into the budget!!! 5 stars truly is not enough for these 2 any how pleased we are with our purchase, if you are even thinking about motorized screens in the Omaha area you need to contact this team!!

Pools by Beyond Blue

Crafted Pools That Endure and Enchant

Imagine an aquatic haven sculpted for your family, whether a hand-cast concrete pool with quartz-plaster sheen or a sleek fiberglass shell with integrated spa jets. We design, build, and maintain your custom pool and spa, pairing resilient finishes with smart equipment so every dip feels effortless and every season sparkles.

Every backyard deserves a custom aquatic escape tailored to its contours and your family’s rhythms. We map sunlight angles, soil conditions, and sightlines, then recommend the perfect pool type: steel‐reinforced concrete, smooth plaster finish, or rapid‐install fiberglass. Photorealistic plans bring your vision to life, from tanning ledges and depth transitions to stone‐etched coping details. Beyond form, we engineer for lasting performance: energy‐efficient pumps, variable‐speed returns, and automated controls balance clarity with conservation. Our crews manage site grading, shell placement, finish application, and equipment hook-up with unwavering precision. And with our care programs: including cleanings, chemical balancing, and seasonal tune-ups, your pool remains crystal-clear and ready for memories year after year.

Concrete Pools

We hand-cast steel-reinforced shells on-site, shaping custom depths, lounging shelves, and signature edges for a truly bespoke pool experience.

Fiberglass Pools

Factory-molded shells slip into place, offering graceful curves and gelcoat surfaces that shrug off algae and slash installation time.

Spas

From built-in bench seats to standalone tubs, our spas deliver targeted jets, digital temperature control, and LED accents for sculpted, year-round relaxation.

Pool Maintenance

We handle everything from skimming and brushing to chemical balancing and equipment inspections so you dive in without delay, any day of the year.

Dive into Light and Leisure

Our pools anchor your backyard in shimmering water and sculpted edges that invite both playful splashes and quiet contemplation. Infinity rims blur the line between pool and horizon, while broad tanning ledges hold sunlit loungers for afternoon repose.

Underneath, steel-reinforced concrete shells and polymer-infused finishes ensure decades of smooth swims. Integrated LED lighting sets a luminous mood at dusk, and natural stone coping frames each step with tactile warmth—so every dive, float, and gathering feels effortlessly elegant.

FAQ

Frequently asked
questions

An illuminated modern pool with deck jets at dusk
How long does a custom pool take to build?
Most projects run 8 to 16 weeks from groundbreaking to final fill. The exact timeline depends on design complexity, hardscape integration, weather, and permitting. We provide a detailed schedule before construction begins so there are no surprises along the way.
How much does a custom pool cost?
Custom pool pricing varies based on size, shape, finish, equipment, and surrounding features. After your consultation, we prepare a detailed scope and proposal so that you can plan with full clarity. We do not quote ranges over the phone, since every project is different and we prefer to provide accurate numbers rather than vague estimates.
Concrete or fiberglass: which is right for my project?
Both options are excellent when built correctly. Concrete offers unlimited shape and design flexibility, while fiberglass installs faster and requires less maintenance over time. We will help you weigh the trade-offs based on your site, your timeline, and how you intend to use the pool.
Do I need permits, and will you handle them?
Yes. Most municipalities require structural, electrical, and plumbing permits for pool installation. We handle all permitting as part of the project, so you do not need to navigate the process on your own.
What kind of warranty comes with a Beyond Blue pool?
We provide structural and equipment warranties tailored to your specific build. Full details are reviewed during your consultation and outlined in your project agreement.
Do you offer ongoing pool maintenance?
Yes. We offer care plans for owners who would rather hand off chemistry, equipment checks, and seasonal start-ups and closings. Many of our build clients continue with us for ongoing service after their pool is finished.
How do I get started?
Reach out through the contact form, give us a call, or request a consultation directly. We will come out, walk your property, and discuss what is possible for your space.
