We’re proud to be the leading Rio Grande swimming pool builder and remodeler. We’ve built more than 3,500 swimming pools and we’re still going strong. We started when our grandfather, Francis M. Hamlin, recognized the need for a pool builder in South Texas. He began his career in water treatment, covering a lot of ground from Mexico to Zapata and Corpus Christi, and he began the next phase of his career when he and his wife, Jacqueline, founded Hamlin Pools with a clear vision, strong morals, and the high ethical standards that we maintain today. We’ve become the industry leader because of our innovative designs, construction know-how, and extensive network that we’ve developed during our family history as Rio Grande Valley pool builders. We work hard to live up to those high standards our grandparents set. Even today, has a 3rd generation family member leading each of our 4 different Departments.

Vento, Dec. 2023** > What an issue. We lost water for many years. finally saved enough money to replaster the pool, only to find out that Hamblin Pools left a freaking huge piece of wood and a brush broom on the bottom of the pool during the initial build and that was the issue main issue all this time. What disappointment. For as expensive as they are. The quality is not there. WOW just WOW! If you plan to use Hamblin pools be sure that you are present for the build. **★★★★★ — donnarex, April 2013** > Hamlin Pools did a complete remodel of our pool and patio area. The results were phenomenal !!!!! From the design phase through completion, we could have not asked for more professional and courteous service. Top quality and good people. Could not ask for more!!! Highly recommend Hamlin Pools!!!!! **★★★★★ — theweddinggal, March 2013** > Hamlin Pools reputation was already such that we did not even get quotes from any other company. Their level of customer service is beyond stellar and far above anyone else in our area. All the people in sales and service are AMAZING and Mr. Hamlin is no exception. He was thoughtful, informative, knowledgable, kind, clean cut, and professional. > > They built our pool to exact specifications, came in on budget, and came in on schedule. Their workers were polite and courteous at all times. They cleaned as they worked and did not leave one spec of dirt behind. I could not have been any more pleased with the entire situation. > > In dealing with today's marketplace...often companies are riddled with rude staffers, people who do not know their own product line, and generally could care less about your business. I can assure you Hamlin Pools will not just take your money...but earn every penny. > > I am not recommending Mr. Hamlin because I think he is the best, I am recommending him because he IS the best. ## Selected projects - [Customer Pool Photo](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/customer-pool-photo-pj-vj~6845450) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Geometric Pools](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/geometric-pools-pj-vj~6999504) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 - Description: https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/geometric-pools-pj-vj~6999504?share=clipboard - [Pool and Spas By price 50-70K](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pool-and-spas-by-price-50-70k-pj-vj~6764881) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 13 - [Pool Water Feature](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pool-water-feature-pj-vj~6692377) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - [Custom Pool Features](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/custom-pool-features-pj-vj~6081961) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 18 - [Commercial Pools Feature](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/commercial-pools-feature-pj-vj~6692372) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Pool and Spas By price 100K and above](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pool-and-spas-by-price-100k-and-above-pj-vj~6764887) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 22 - [Pool and Spas By price 70-100K](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pool-and-spas-by-price-70-100k-pj-vj~6764883) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 11 - [Freeform Pools](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/freeform-pools-pj-vj~6539354) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 14 - [Pool Maintenance & Services](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pool-maintenance-and-services-pj-vj~6615274) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [New Pools](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/new-pools-pj-vj~1153753) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 3 - [Tanning Ledges](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/tanning-ledges-pj-vj~6159053) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Stair Stepped Overflow](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/stair-stepped-overflow-pj-vj~6159047) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Scuppers](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/scuppers-pj-vj~5777112) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 12 - [Grotto with Water Falls](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/grotto-with-water-falls-pj-vj~5777089) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - Description: Incorporating water features into your poolscape is one of the most effective ways to make it more unique and aesthetically appealing. - [Fire Features](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/fire-features-pj-vj~5777063) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - Description: Fire features add a dramatic flair to your poolscape, creating an intense ambiance at nighttime perfect for enjoying your pool.
