Why Basin Pool Designs Isn’t Like Other Nashville Pool Builders

Choosing a pool builder in Middle Tennessee can be overwhelming. A quick search will reveal national franchises, budget installers, and high-volume firms promising “luxury” at lightning speed. But not all pool companies are created equal.
At Basin Pool Designs, we’re proud to be different by design—delivering a level of craftsmanship, creativity, and personal service that sets us apart in Nashville and beyond. Here’s what makes our approach unique.
1. We’re Not a Franchise. We’re a Boutique Builder.
Many companies operating in Nashville are extensions of national brands. That means:
-
Limited customization
-
Generic designs and factory-standard options
-
Corporate sales tactics and rushed construction schedules
Basin is locally owned and operated. We take on fewer projects—so we can go deeper into every detail and ensure each pool is uniquely designed, beautifully built, and personally managed.
2. Every Pool Is Fully Custom
We don’t offer cookie-cutter “packages” or catalog shapes. Instead, we provide:
-
Full 3D renderings for every design
-
Custom fit to your lot, home architecture, and elevation
-
Layouts that evolve with your input—not a preset list
Whether you want a sleek modern rectangle or a curved, naturalistic retreat, we start with your vision—not our volume goals.
3. We Specialize in Gunite Pools Only
No fiberglass. No vinyl liners. Just structurally superior gunite pools built with:
-
High-PSI shotcrete shells
-
Steel-reinforced frameworks
-
Finish materials that last 30+ years
This is the construction method used in resorts, high-end developments, and luxury homes—because it’s the best.
4. We Treat You Like a Design Partner
From day one, we involve you in the creative process. You’ll get:
-
Collaborative consultations, not pressure sales
-
Clear budget alignment before construction
-
Transparent communication through each phase
-
On-site walkthroughs with your project manager
We aim to be the easiest part of your home improvement experience.
5. We’re Selective—for Your Benefit
We intentionally limit our workload to ensure:
-
No rushed jobs or overextended crews
-
Cleaner job sites and higher construction standards
-
More responsive service before, during, and after the build
We aren’t trying to be the biggest builder in Nashville—just the best one for each client we serve.
