Price
Integrity

Forget misleading "specials" or gimmicks. We offer competitive and ALL-INCLUSIVE estimates. No inflated pricing to lower, disguised as savings. After all, if a builder claims to cut their price, was it ever a fair price to begin with? Integrity is in our work and our prices.

Direct
Communication

Direct owner oversight is a key advantage we provide. The owner personally manages your project, guaranteeing a seamless experience and quality results from initial design to completion. That's important!

The Owner

Our Edge. Your Advantage.

In the pool and outdoor living industry, there is no substitute for time spent in the field. Anyone can deliver a design that looks stunning on a screen, but building it to last a lifetime requires a different kind of insight. Our Owner didn’t start behind a desk. He started in the field. Then in 2012, Russell Outdoor Living + Custom Pools was founded. By combining high-end design with the sharpest field expertise in the industry, we don’t just build outdoor spaces—we build legacies. We call that The Edge. Discover how his journey has lead him to YOUR BACKYARD!
