Custom Pool Design & Installation in the St. Louis Metro Area
A custom pool can transform an ordinary backyard into a space designed for relaxation, recreation, and entertainment. Homeowners throughout the St. Louis metro area are investing in custom pool projects to create outdoor environments that reflect their lifestyle while adding value and enjoyment to their property. Whether you are looking for a simple backyard retreat or a complete outdoor living destination, a professionally planned custom swimming pool can become the centerpiece of your landscape.
Unlike pre-designed pool packages, custom pool construction allows homeowners to tailor every aspect of the project. Pool size, shape, materials, surrounding features, and overall layout can all be designed to complement the property and support how the space will be used.
At Baker Landscaping, we provide complete custom pool services from design and planning through construction and installation. Our team works closely with homeowners to create pools that blend seamlessly with the surrounding landscape while delivering long term performance.
Our Custom Pool Services
Every property presents unique opportunities for pool design. Our goal is to create a finished space that feels like a natural extension of the home rather than a standalone feature. Our custom pool services include:
- New pool construction
- Custom pool design
- Site preparation and excavation
- Pool decking and hardscapes
- Outdoor living areas
- Retaining walls and grading

By combining pool construction with landscaping and hardscaping services, we can create a cohesive outdoor environment that functions as a complete backyard retreat.
Materials & Design Features
One of the advantages of a custom swimming pool is the ability to personalize the project to fit your goals and aesthetic preferences. Homeowners often incorporate a variety of materials and features into their projects. Popular options include:
- Decorative concrete
- Natural stone accents
- Paver pool decks
- Water features
- Integrated seating areas
- Fire features

Many homeowners also explore custom pool design ideas that improve both appearance and functionality. Features such as tanning ledges, built in benches, and expanded entertainment areas can help maximize how the pool is used.
Whether your vision involves a classic layout or a more modern custom pool design, our team can help develop a plan that works with your property and budget.
Our Pool Construction Process
Building a pool involves far more than excavation and installation. Careful planning helps ensure the finished project performs properly while meeting the homeowner's expectations. Our process typically includes:
- Initial consultation
- Site evaluation
- Design development
- Material selection
- Excavation and preparation
- Pool construction
- Deck and hardscape installation
- Final inspection
Throughout the project, our team remains focused on communication and quality workmanship. Because we manage projects from start to finish, homeowners have a single point of contact throughout the process.
Benefits of Custom Pools
A custom pool offers advantages that extend beyond having a place to swim. Homeowners often choose custom pool construction because it can provide:
- Increased outdoor living space
- Improved property value
- More opportunities for entertaining
- Enhanced backyard aesthetics
- Personalized design options
- Recreation and relaxation at home
- Better integration with the landscape
Because every project is customized, homeowners have greater control over how the finished space looks and functions.
Why Choose Us for Custom Pools?
Choosing the right custom pool contractor is one of the most important decisions in the process. Baker Landscaping has been serving homeowners throughout the St. Louis metro area for more than 22 years. As a family-owned company, we focus on quality craftsmanship, clear communication, and thoughtful project planning.
Our design-build approach allows us to oversee every phase of the project internally. Rather than coordinating with multiple contractors, homeowners can work with one experienced team from concept through completion.
We also utilize design technology that helps homeowners visualize their project before construction begins. This planning process often helps refine custom pool design ideas and ensures everyone shares the same vision for the final result.
More Than Pool Construction
Many pool projects involve much more than the water itself. Creating a functional outdoor environment often requires additional improvements that tie the entire space together. In addition to custom pool construction, we also provide:
- Hardscape services
- Concrete installation
- Excavation services
- Irrigation systems
- Lawn maintenance
- Landscape enhancements
This allows us to create complete outdoor living spaces that are cohesive, functional, and designed around the homeowner's goals.
