Custom Pool Builders in Boise, Idaho

Maverick Pools builds custom gunite pools throughout Boise as pool builders in Boise with experience across the full range of neighborhoods and lot types the city offers. From the North End and the Boise Foothills to Northwest Boise, the East End, and the Bench, we design and build pools that fit the specific character of your property and the way you want to use the backyard.

Design consultations are free, and we design every pool in 3D before any engineering dollars are spent. You see a realistic rendering of the finished pool in your actual backyard before the project moves to permitting. From that point, we manage design, engineering, permits, and construction through final handover with one point of contact throughout.

Whether you are building a new pool, remodeling an existing one, or transforming the full backyard, we handle the project as one coordinated scope. See how we approach the build on our process page, or compare construction methods in our gunite vs. fiberglass comparison.

Many Boise subdivisions have active homeowners associations with architectural design review requirements. HOA approval and your city building permit are separate processes on separate timelines. A change request from the HOA is much easier to absorb before engineering and permit drawings are finalized than after construction has started.

We help put together the HOA design package before permits are submitted. That typically includes a scaled site plan, 3D rendering, materials selections, fencing and gate details, and a drainage note. Getting the HOA submission in early keeps the full project on track. See our complete guide to HOA approval for a pool in the Treasure Valley for a full walkthrough of what to submit and when.

Soil and groundwater conditions vary across Boise, from neighborhoods near the Boise River to the foothills. Every pool we build is engineered to its specific site, which means the rebar layout, shell thickness, and drain design are determined by what is actually under your backyard, not by a standard template.

Larger excavations require erosion and sediment control approval from the city. We plan excavation, equipment access, and soil haul-off as part of the project scope so there are no surprises once the dig starts. For a full picture of how soil conditions across Ada and Canyon County affect pool engineering, see our guide on how soil conditions in Treasure Valley affect pool design.

Every pool project is different, and cost is driven by the specifics of the lot and the design. The main factors that move the number:

• - Pool size and shape
• - Depth profile
• - Attached spa and spillover design
• - Sun shelf size and placement
• - Water features: sheer descents, deck jets, scuppers, bubblers
• - Interior finish: plaster, quartz aggregate, or pebble
• - Tile and coping selections
• - Decking material and square footage
• - Equipment package, automation, and heating
• - Site access for excavation
• - Slope, soil conditions, and any additional structural requirements
• - Outdoor kitchen, pergola, fire feature, or other backyard additions

The right way to get an accurate number for your specific yard is through a free design consultation. See our full breakdown of what a custom pool costs in the Treasure Valley for a detailed look at what drives cost, and our guide on whether a sun shelf is right for your pool.

Financing is available through Lyons Financial, subject to lender approval. See our financing page for details.

A pool project is an opportunity to redesign the full backyard, not just add a swimming area. Maverick handles patios, outdoor kitchens, fire features, and complete backyard transformations designed together with the pool. When the full scope is coordinated by one team with one point of contact, the project comes together more efficiently and the result is more cohesive than when separate contractors work the same site.
