Our home turf
Proud to call Philadelphia home.
Chester County and the Philadelphia suburbs blend colonial history, rolling countryside, and a strong sense of community. From Downingtown's craft breweries to the Main Line's historic towns, it's a region that values tradition and connection.
Your Philadelphia area team brings California Pools' national expertise to a community that expects quality, with the neighborly care that comes from building where you live. The owners coach the local teams and treat every project like it's for a neighbor, because it is.
A pool is so much more than a pool. It adds lasting value to your home, your family, and your lifestyle. It's where summer birthdays become core memories, where the kids burn off energy after school, and where you unwind with a glass of wine as the string lights flicker on. California Pools of Philadelphia makes the whole process easy, from the first design sketch and free consultation to the day you dive in and start relaxing. Our local experts are here to guide you every step of the way, making the decisions straightforward, understandable, and genuinely enjoyable. When your builder lives down the street and is proud to call Philadelphia home, every backyard becomes a personal point of pride.

What our Philadelphia clients say.
“California Pools designed the pool of our dreams! Our family finally decided to build a pool in our under utilized backyard. California Pools came highly recommended to us and they did not disappoint! Their design capabilities, project management and ethics are unbeatable! We’ve heard a ton of horror stories about other companies so we expected to come across delays and problems, but we did not with California Pools. They exceeded our expectations and finished our pool right on time! I can’t say enough about how amazing Ryan Vaughn and Ryan Skelton are.”
“They came to my home and showed me the many different options for a new pool. They were one of 3 providers that I interviewed. I knew 10 minutes into the meeting this was the guy I wanted to install my pool. Andrew and his entire staff are AMAZING. They were on time. TJ has been so helpful with me getting to understand how to use my pool and maintain the pool. Everything about this company is 100 % professional and PERFECT. I am so happy with my experience. I encourage anyone interested in a new pool to use this company. You will NOT be disappointed.”
“Very happy with our new pool. Spent all of COVID wishing we had a pool. Andrew and his team were pleasant to work with right from our initial meeting. The team kept us informed throughout the entire process and was always quick to address our questions and concerns. All in all very pleased with the outcome.”
