Swimming Pool Water Feature Installation in Dallas

Pool Remodels: Waterfalls, Fountains, and Grottos

Water features add movement, sound, and a resort feel to your own backyard. At Evolution Leak Detection & Pool Repair, we handle swimming pool water feature installation for new and existing pools across Dallas, Plano, Fort Worth, and the surrounding DFW area. 

We’re a family-owned team based in McKinney with over 10 years of experience installing pool features for all layouts. We also don’t subcontract, so you can trust us to stay with your pool from start to finish.

What is Pool Resurfacing?

Pool resurfacing, also known as pool refinishing, applies a fresh finish over your pool’s worn interior surface, so it looks and feels like new without replacing the structure underneath.

Pool surfaces don’t last forever. Constant sunlight, everyday use, and exposure to chemicals in your pool can wear the finish down over time, causing it to be rough, discolored, and prone to leaks. By prepping the worn surface, repairing any damage, and applying a new finish, resurfacing brings back that smooth, comfortable feel you love about your pool.

Swimming Pool Waterfalls

Waterfalls add the soothing sound of flowing water and create a natural centerpiece for your backyard. You can choose from a selection of options to find the best fit for your pool, including rock and stone waterfalls, sheer descents, and spillways:

Rock and Stone Waterfalls

Stacked rock or stone creates a more natural look, with water spilling over the edges. It’s a great choice for homeowners who want their pool to blend in with the rest of the yard.

Sheer Descents

A sheet of water flows from a narrow lip on the wall and into the pool. Sheer descents look smoother than other waterfall types and are ideal for modern pool layouts.

Spillways

Water gently spills over the edge of a raised wall, complementing both natural and modern features for homeowners who want sleek movement in their pool.

These options work for new or existing pools, and our team handles plumbing and pump sizing to match the waterfall you choose.

Swimming Pool Fountains

Fountains are one of the simplest additions to an existing pool, and our popular options include deck jets, bubblers, and spray fountains:

Deck Jets

Small nozzles set in the deck that shoot water into the pool in a curved motion.

Bubblers

Placed in the shallow end, they push a gentle column of water up through the surface.

Spray Fountains

These send water upward and outward, adding some movement across the pool.

A pool fountain can also help lower the temperature. The spray aerates your pool and speeds up evaporation, creating a light cooling effect. It isn’t a replacement for shade or a chiller, but it’s a relaxing upgrade for hot, Texas summers.

Since fountains increase evaporation, our Water Loss Calculator is an easy way to keep an eye on how much your water level drops.

Other Popular Water Features

Grottos

A grotto is a cave-style retreat built into the pool, usually paired with a waterfall, seating, or a bar. If you want your backyard to feel like a getaway, a pool grotto installation can make it happen.

Scuppers

Wall-mounted spouts that pour a steady stream into the water. They’re an easy way to add more movement to your raised pool walls.

Sheer Descent Walls

A raised wall made to hold one or more sheer descent waterfalls, designed to work with any layout or style.

We’ll help you choose a feature that best complements your pool’s size and shape. For lighting, heaters, and automation, visit our Remodel & Upgrades page.
