We only build
twelve pools
a year.

Most Wild West pools take 14–20 weeks from excavation to your first swim. Austin permitting typically runs 4–8 weeks depending on the municipality. Because Dan actively follows up on permits rather than waiting passively, we consistently move faster than the industry average.

Because that's how many Dan can personally oversee while being hands-on at each job site throughout the entire build. This isn't a marketing decision — it's a quality decision. The moment we take on more projects than Dan can physically attend, the thing that makes us different disappears. We'd rather turn away business than compromise what we've built.

It means Dan Huber — the owner who signed your contract — is physically present on your property during active construction phases. He inspects work as it's completed, catches issues before they become problems, and ensures every trade performs to the standard your investment deserves. You're not getting a project manager who's juggling 40 jobs. You're getting the owner.

We serve Austin, Round Rock, Pflugerville, Hutto, Cedar Park, Leander, and surrounding Central Texas communities within roughly 30 miles of Round Rock. If you're unsure whether your address falls within our service area, just call or text Dan directly at (737) 301-4569.

It starts with an on-site visit — Dan walks your yard, takes in the space, and listens to how you live and entertain. From there, most design reviews and refinement meetings happen over Zoom, which most homeowners find far more convenient. We'll develop a custom 2D plan and photorealistic 3D rendering of your pool in your actual yard, all at no charge. In-person meetings are always available if you prefer. No pressure, no obligation.

Most pool companies are volume businesses. They take on 50–80 projects a year, managed by coordinators who've never swung a shovel. Wild West Custom Pools builds 12 pools a year, and the owner is hands-on at your job site throughout the entire build. Our designer brings 20 years of custom pool design experience to every project, and Dan personally oversees every phase of the build. No tickets. No call centers. His number goes directly to his phone.

Absolutely. Over 5 years building in Central Texas, Wild West has tackled some of the most complex terrain in the region — hillside builds, narrow access lots, rocky caliche soil, drainage challenges, and HOA-governed communities. Difficult lots are where an experienced owner-operator outperforms a volume builder every time.

Before we hand over your pool, Dan walks you through every system — how to operate it, maintain it, and get the most from your investment. We call it pool school. You'll understand your equipment, your chemistry, and your automation from day one. And if something comes up after completion, you call Dan directly.
