Due to COVID and everything else the last couple years, pool contractors are slammed. Most aren’t taking new clients.

I need a good builder to help on a pool.
 

Thanks for any help.

Unless you are building a really expensive pool, you're not going to get to pick a builder.  The builder is going to pick you.  I started the process a few months ago and made a bunch of phone calls.  The company I went with was the one I was hoping not to go with but they were literally the only ones that were willing to come and return phone calls and schedule a quote.  I went with Cody and it's probably going to be a 6 month process minimum.  I would have preferred to give my money to a smaller business but they were't interested in the work.  Mine is a basic 15X30 rectangle pool with no spa but a decent amount of decking.  Pools like that are running $80k and up.  I had one guy straight up tell me if I wasn't spending close to $200k they didn't have time for the job right now.  

Go check   https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/index.php?/topic/342-yes-pools-are-worth-it/page/36/#comments

Poolflood drops some good knowledge in there and might be able to help you find a builder.

Good luck.

Are you looking for someone to build one from start to finish or pick up and existing job?

Pool contractors are slammed but there is light at end of tunnel.... or maybe it's a train.  

What part of Austin?  I'll reach out to contacts.  There's a bunch of really good builders.  And not always the big names.

Start to finish 

We used Solara Custom Pools.  They did our pool and spa with the deck as well as an outdoor fireplace and bbq. Send me a PM if you want the owners name and cell.
