Our container pool
models & pricing.

Nobody likes a website that hides the number. Here are the ranges we actually build to.

Here's the honest range for a fully installed container pool in Texas, including the shell, fabrication, site prep, crane placement, and plumbing. Prices are current for our market and reflect real installs we've completed in the Dallas, Austin, and Houston areas.

TypeSizeTypical range
8' x 20' plunge pool8 x 20 ft$28k – $45k
16' x 20' wide pool16 x 20 ft$44k – $60k
8' x 40' lap pool8 x 40 ft$44k – $60k
16' x 40' family pool16 x 40 ft$62k – $85k
Premium build (pool window, heater, deck)16 x 40 ft +$80k – $120k

What moves the number: container length, crane access, foundation type (above-ground versus in-ground), and whether you add a glass window, heater, swim jets, or a full deck package. What doesn't move much: the fabrication timeline. A container pool ships and installs on a schedule that's remarkably consistent compared with a poured pool's exposure to weather delays.

Running costs are where owners feel the difference too. A smaller footprint means less water to heat and treat, and a well-coated steel shell doesn't need the periodic replastering a gunite pool does.

If you are comparing a container pool vs. a gunite pool, the upfront investment and the timeline are both dramatically lower. You're not signing up for a six-month construction project in your backyard — you're installing a finished, engineered pool that arrives ready to go.
