If you are looking for a “beyond the sale” team to work with you & even educate you as you go, it’s these guys, TRULY. We wanted a quaint, zen country pool that is easy to care for. We are really happy with the result & the great care from Custom Pools!!!
Julia Wilson
Our experience with Custom Pools was wonderful. Chad and Joey were very professional and responsive to all of our questions. They were great in helping us create a beautiful backyard oasis, incorporating the existing landscape. Their crew and subcontractors clearly take pride in doing a job right.
Wendy Starwalt
We can not say enough about our experience with Custom Pools. We know nothing about caring for a pool or pool equipment. Custom Pools came in and set us up with a heater. We knew from the very start of our interactions that the company operated from a place of integrity. We also had so many questions about caring for our pool, and they were informative, patient and kind to us.
Rhonda Mayfield
I have had nothing but exceptional service from Chad and all the employees since the first day we set down to order the pool. He went through all the details and answered all my questions. He is always very responsive if I have any issues and with help keeping my pool sparkling clean. I highly recommend Custom Pools for your future needs!
Kenneth Daily
Chad was great to work with and quick to follow up when I needed answers. He made the process great and up front. Did not “sell” me asked me what I wanted and also gave his opinion. 100% satisfied. Made sure my wife and I were satisfied.

Financing built around the build
Urbana homeowners often compare financing structures while selecting equipment and finish scope.
Financing through
Your equity stays out of it
Unsecured loans, so the house is not collateral. No liens, no appraisal, no title work, no second mortgage against the home.
Four lenders, one comparison
LightStream, HFS Financial, Viking Capital and Paramount, laid out side by side against a HELOC and against paying cash.
See terms before you commit
Checking a rate with HFS or Viking is a soft pull. Per each partner, it will not affect your score, and nothing obligates you.
