Building in Prosper: Ridge Outdoor Living designs and builds custom pools and outdoor living spaces in Prosper. Projects start at $75,000, and most complete backyards fall between $100,000 and $200,000. We handle the design, HOA approval and the permit with the Town of Prosper.
Prosper is one of the fastest-growing towns in North Texas, and many of our Prosper clients are in a new home with a bare backyard. That's a great position to be in: the yard is a blank canvas, and the pool can be planned right the first time.
Building a pool in Prosper
Timing matters with new construction. If your home is still being built, we can help you plan the backyard so the builder doesn't pour patio, run sprinklers or lay sod where the pool will go. If you've already moved in, we plan access through the side yard and protect the new fence and landscaping.
Communities like Windsong Ranch, Star Trail and Gentle Creek have HOA design guidelines. We include the HOA submittal in our design process.
Prosper sits on the expansive clay that's common across Collin County. We build every steel-reinforced shell for the site's soil and pay close attention to deck drainage and how the new yard is graded.
What Prosper homeowners ask us for
- Geometric pools with sun shelves and benches
- Spillover or raised spas
- Covered patios to shade a west-facing yard
- Outdoor kitchens for a first full outdoor living space
- Privacy planning against neighboring two-story homes
How a Prosper project works
- Consultation at your home. We walk the yard, check access, slope, trees and utilities, and talk through budget.
- 3D design. You see the finished backyard, with your materials, before anything is built.
- HOA and permit. We prepare the HOA submittal if needed and pull the permit with the Town of Prosper.
- Construction. A set schedule, regular updates and city inspections at each stage.
- Startup. We start up the pool and walk you through every feature.

Questions from Prosper homeowners
When should I start planning a pool in a new Prosper home?
As early as possible, ideally before the builder finishes the backyard. That lets us plan access, utilities and the patio around the pool instead of working around them.
Do you handle the permit with the Town of Prosper?
Yes. We pull the permit with the Town of Prosper and handle HOA approval if your community requires it.
How long does it take to build a pool?
In dry weather, most pools take about 6 to 8 weeks of construction. Permits usually take 1 to 3 weeks. After a heavy rain, we wait 2 to 3 days for the soil to dry before bringing machinery back in, so rainy stretches, mostly in fall, winter and spring, add time.
Is the design consultation free?
Yes. We'll meet you at your Prosper home, walk the yard and talk through your plans at no cost.
