Custom pools & spas
From a streamlined lap pool to a family gathering space with a Baja shelf or a spa, the design begins with how you plan to use it. We consider the relationship between the pool, surrounding hardscape, and the rest of your yard.

Pools & Outdoor Living in Los Angeles
A great backyard gives you more than a pool. It gives you a place to slow down, gather with friends, and enjoy the home you’ve worked for. Meta Builders brings pools, patios, and outdoor living features together in one considered plan.

BEFORE CONSTRUCTION BEGINS
A beautiful backyard starts with a coordinated plan.
Pool size is only one part of the project. Access for construction, existing surfaces, grading needs, utility connections, and the features you choose can all affect the work. Planning the yard as a whole helps you prioritize the investment and understand the sequence before construction begins.

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Before we build.
Can you build the pool and outdoor kitchen together?
Yes. Pools, patios, outdoor kitchens, fire features, landscaping, and lighting can be considered together. A coordinated scope helps address the shared layout and utility work from the start.
Can I start with only part of the backyard?
Tell us which features are the priority and which can wait. We can discuss the scope and whether a phased approach makes sense for the layout and construction sequence.
Do I need a finished backyard design?
No. We can start with your ideas, reference photos, or existing architectural plans. A site visit helps turn those preferences into a more concrete discussion.
What affects the cost of a pool and outdoor project?
The pool design, site access, preparation work, material selections, equipment, utilities, and additional outdoor features all contribute. We review the actual scope before preparing an estimate.
Do you handle permits and inspections?
Our team coordinates the permits and inspections needed for the agreed work. Requirements are reviewed for your property and project during planning.
How long will construction take?
The schedule depends on the scope, permitting, site conditions, material availability, and construction sequence. We discuss expected stages after reviewing your plans and property.
