A Natural Escape in Your Own Backyard
A freeform pool isn’t just a swimming space—it’s an invitation to relax, unwind, and immerse yourself in a design that flows effortlessly with your surroundings. Unlike rigid geometric designs, this design embraces soft curves and organic shapes, mimicking the beauty of natural bodies of water.

Backyard Size and Shape: Freeform pools adapt well to irregular or sloped spaces, making them perfect for creative layouts.
Primary Use
Ideal for relaxation, entertaining, or creating a family-friendly environment.
Aesthetic Preferences
Enhance the natural feel with features like waterfalls, grottos, or tropical landscaping.
Budget
While these pools offer flexibility, features like rock formations or custom designs may increase costs.
A Pool That Flows with Nature
Freeform pools are designed to complement the natural beauty of your backyard, creating a space that feels organic and inviting. Unlike traditional geometric pools, their curved edges and flowing lines mimic the look of a natural lagoon, making them a seamless extension of the surrounding landscape. Paired with lush greenery, rock features, or a cascading waterfall, a freeform pool turns any backyard into a serene retreat.
Designed for Relaxation & Entertainment
Whether you’re looking for a quiet place to unwind or a space to bring friends and family together, freeform pools offer the perfect balance of relaxation and fun. Shallow tanning ledges and built-in seating create tranquil areas to lounge, while waterfalls and grottos add excitement for swimmers of all ages. Their fluid shape also allows for different depths and swim zones, making them a great option for both kids and adults.
Tailored to Your Backyard Vision
No two freeform pools are alike, offering endless customization to match your style and space. These pools adapt beautifully to sloped terrain, smaller yards, or unique property layouts, making them a flexible option for any home. From tropical-inspired designs with natural stone accents to sleek, modern retreats with integrated lighting, a freeform pool is more than just a place to swim—it’s a personal sanctuary designed just for you.

From the day I choose CA Pools & Landscape through project completion, I have always been impressed. They are a TRUE Design-Build team with open communication and transparency. This ensures the customer is always up to speed with any changes. Steve R (Design), Steve D (Construction) along with Jordan, Gabe (Startup) are amazing with their approach. Sara D is the glue that binds it all together. With all the trades involved and ever changing decisions (mostly from me), she was instrumental in keeping the process moving. From initial design to a finished pool, spa landscape package built in less than 2.5 months is Amazing! I will highly recommend them to anyone in need.

I got a pool and putting green with California Pools, they did an AMAZING job with the entire project. It did take some time, but it was worth the wait in the end!
Chris Black
Shelly Freund Smith is SO happy to be working at CA Pools. She loves her job and the people who work there. She has such a positive attitude and speaks highly of the company and fellow employees. I personally recommend CA pools just because she is so enthusiastic about the company. Yea, Shelly!!!

CP designed and built our pool several years ago. We love it! On the rare occasion we have had a seal go bad or pump problems, we have been very happy with the service. They return calls or emails promptly and have someone at our residence within 24-48 hours. They follow up after the service to make sure we are satisfied and that everything is working. I strongly recommend California Pools!

Love our new pool and back yard. California pools staff helped us all the way with great design ideas and site layout. The installation was handled on schedule, the crews that came to the house were professional and good to deal with. Harscape crew was awesome and the landscaping crew helped us with ideas for other parts of our yard. The tile work was amazing and everyone worked very hard to stay on schedule. Cannot say enough good things about the process and the results!

We did as most customers do and shopped around before ultimately choosing California Pools. We had a few communication issues with our initial design before it was finalized but overall we had a great experience with California Pools. Our project looks amazing and family and friends all mention the great workmanship of the pool, the Ramada and the travertine deck. The entire Cal Pools team was great but there are a few individuals who we must mention. Thank you to Grace Johnson for the assistance, direction and patients in getting our project financed. Even though our project started the day after Thanksgiving we had no major delays. Scheduling through the entire process was easy since Myra Olson kept us in the loop and constantly informed from the onset of the project. It was great to be able to send her an email with questions or concerns and receive a response immediately almost every time. All the crews were very friendly and professional but we have to acknowledge Matt and the masonry crew. Julio and his team did an excellent job with the masonry portion of the Ramada and an excellent job with the travertine paver decking. Great, great attention to detail. We would be remiss if we didn't mention our project manager Pete Barrera. He made himself so accessible and returned calls and emails without hesitation. He dealt with every question or concern we had and that made this experience that much better. I'm sure he had other projects to deal with but he always made us feel like our project was his priority. The fact that he visited the site almost daily even if just for a few minutes helped minimize the number of items on the punch list. Thank you! We definitely recommend California Pools

We started our process contacting 5-6 pool companies. Cal pools was the first company we contacted and our designer was Christopher Robinson. He had a design and prices within a couple hours. Contacted the other companies and no one even had a design within a week let alone prices for me. Chris was absolutely fantastic in every way possible. Any change we made he would have a new design and price almost immediately. There was a lack of communication in the middle of the build where we couldn’t get a hold of the construction manager or scheduler, I contacted Chris and he said that wasn’t right and he made sure someone reached out to me the very next day. They switched our schedule coordinator after that to a lady named Vina Ortega. Vina was a superstar for us. Her communication, knowledge, and all around customer service was top notch. Both Chris and Vina seemed genuinely happy for our family. I would highly recommend Cal pools. We are happy customers. Thank You!

We had shopped around, and working with a tight budget, California Pools & Landscape were the only ones willing to work with what we had. The sales person, Mort, was so helpful, and made this project much easier than we expected. We loved the 3D pictures that he provided as we were designing the pool. That made it so much easier to imagine, and nailed it dead on. We were able to get more than what we thought we would be able to afford, and have to say that the entire family was happy. Choosing the colors I thought was going to be difficult, but Mort made it a family event. Coming out with samples, taking us outside with a glass bowl of water, we were able to get a feel of how the different finishes would look. (Have to say a BIG thanks to Mort for standing outside with us that day, it was 114 degrees) From the start, Steve the project supervisor, came out and explained what the process was going to be. The communication between myself and everyone I dealt with at California Pools couldn't have been better. After each process, Steve came out to make sure that the work was done properly. We really appreciated the attention that they gave to the quality of the work being done, making sure every step was completed correctly. We have been enjoying our California Pool for 1 month now, and the kids are enjoying it every day. We would like to express our thanks to California Pools for working with us, knowing we were on a budget, and making our backyard enjoyable for family.

We had an error message pop up on our screen regarding our salt cell which we clean regularly the first of every month. Called Cal Pools it did take 3 weeks to get an appointment but when Alan came out he was professional and very informative! While we had been cleaning the salt cell every month with the pressure hose but we were not letting it soak in muric acid as he showed me how to do. This was something that was not told to us upon the initial review of the system. He replaced it and made sure everything was working great and he was impressed on how well we have taken care of the pool except for this little mishap and for that there was no charge for the replacement and trip out. Though going over the system with him was very informative, i video taped the first initial review of all the working parts but several things were not spoken of/discussed at that time. I recommend doing a yearly review with customers to make sure everything is going well. Big shot out to Alan!

We couldn't be happier with the completed pool installed by Cal Pools. Granted, it took some time, with material shortages, labor challenges and weather, but the pros at Cal Pools didn't waiver from their commitment to us to deliver a professionally installed pool. The contractors showed up on time, cleaned up as the worked and treated our property as their own. We were referred to Cal Pools by our good friends. This is our 5th pool build and we were pretty sure we knew what we wanted. David Love, our designer, laid out exactly what we described. This is NO PLAY POOL. 26' wide, 48' long and 3.5'-10' deep with an elevated diving board. 67,000 gallons of water. We highly recommend Cal Pools and if you have an option, choose David Love for design. He also has a great sense of humor.

I wish to express my thanks and gratitude for the service quality I experienced from dealing with California Pools and especially Leslie Gallegos and to Todd the Technichan. Their efforts in response, communication and professional repair are commendable. My compliments to the company, and these two individuals who represent the company.

My Dream Pool - Polynesian Paradise in AZ! I obtained three quotes before deciding to move forward with California Pools to build my dream pool, and I have absolutely no regrets. One of the many important aspects of trusting a pool company with my yard and money was the requirement of excellent communication. When obtaining quotes, the other pool companies did not follow up with me or did so far too late after on-site visits and lots of my time invested; however, from the very beginning of the initial pool design and layout (Thank you to the late, Scott Greenbank) every aspect of getting the pool built I was informed each and every step of the way, whether is was the scheduling of various stages, or even delays. The CPL app was an excellent resource to keep me up to date on everything and when I needed extra details or information, Alex Barone-Jay was always there with an answer for me in a timely manner as were the friendly staff in the Queen Creek Office. In fact, each person associated with my pool build was an expert in their craft and it was fun and fascinating to watch it come to life over several months. I struck gold with having Adam Redding as my Pool Supervisor/Superintendent. Adam is knowledgeable and personable and ensured to follow up on all the stages of the build and for those reasons I never worried about anything! The end result was exactly what I wanted and dreamed of for the pool. It was a pleasure and I'm so grateful to California Pools for not only this pool, but for the continued support and follow up when I had questions or needed anything!

Our back yard is beautiful.

We requested bids for a new pool build from 4 different companies and chose California Pools due to their professionalism and word of mouth reviews. They were very upfront with the timeframe of the build times and walked us through what to expect. Our project manager Christian Pierre and our construction manager Jordan Thrasher we're fantastic to work with. They were always prompt at responding to any questions we had and made the entire project run extremely smooth. Each phase of the project was completed on or before the estimated dates and the contractors that did work were always courteous and did an amazing job. We couldn't be happier with the pool and they did a top notch job! We couldn't have made a better decision by choosing this company to do our pool.

Excellent company. Very easy to work with and highly ethical.
