Custom Pool Construction, Pool Remodeling & Outdoor Living Services
Every family lives differently.
That's why every Sunset Pools project begins with understanding how you want to use your space before a single design decision is made. Whether you're building a custom gunite pool, renovating an existing backyard, or creating a complete outdoor living environment, our goal is the same: to create a space that feels like a natural extension of your home and lifestyle.

1,500+ Custom Projects Completed
Since 2001, Sunset Pools has helped families create custom pools and outdoor living environments that enhance both lifestyle and property value.
Design-First Philosophy
Every project begins by understanding how you want to live, entertain, relax, and enjoy the space for years to come.
Direct Owner Involvement
Founders Adam and Sonia Traugott remain personally involved throughout the process, helping ensure a more personalized experience from beginning to end.
Custom Gunite Pool Expertise
Unlike many builders who offer multiple pool types, Sunset Pools exclusively designs and builds custom gunite pools, providing greater flexibility, durability, and design possibilities for homeowners seeking a truly custom result.
Sunset Pools has earned recognition from some of the most respected organizations in the pool and outdoor living industry. Over the years, our projects have received honors including PebbleTec World’s Greatest Pools recognition, Pentair Pool of the Year awards, Top 50 Builder recognition, Pinnacle Awards, and Best of Katy honors.
We are also proud members of both the Pool & Hot Tub Alliance (PHTA) and the Pool & Spa Association of Central Texas (PACE), organizations dedicated to advancing professionalism, education, and excellence throughout the industry.
While we’re honored by these recognitions, what matters most is creating outdoor environments that homeowners continue enjoying for years after construction is complete.
One of the most unique aspects of the Sunset Pools experience is our Design Studio.
Through collaborative planning, design presentations, and detailed visual concepts, homeowners can explore ideas, compare possibilities, and refine their vision before construction ever begins.
This process creates greater confidence, better design decisions, and a clearer understanding of how the finished space will look, feel, and function.
For many homeowners, it’s one of the most valuable parts of the entire journey.
The most memorable outdoor spaces aren’t built around features.
They’re built around experiences.
Family dinners outside. Children spending entire afternoons in the pool. Friends gathering around a fire feature long after sunset. Quiet mornings with a cup of coffee outdoors.
That’s why our design process focuses on how your family will actually use the space—not simply which features to include.
The result is a backyard that feels intentional, cohesive, and uniquely yours.
For more than two decades, homeowners throughout Greater Houston have trusted Sunset Pools to create custom pools and outdoor living environments designed around their lifestyle.
Every project has a unique story, but the goal remains the same: creating outdoor environments that bring families together and enhance everyday life.
“The communication, professionalism, and attention to detail exceeded our expectations. The finished backyard completely transformed how our family spends time at home.”
