They took our backyard that didn't know what to do with and turned it into our favorite place at our home.MakeupLovahNovember 20, 2019My name is Lisa Smith, my husband and I reside in the Memorial area. We had Dale and his company build us a pool, spa and deck. We knew nothing about the process, but Dale was very helpful in explaining step by step the process and even drew up a design for us and it was just amazing. He made things so easy and it wasn't stressful like we thought it would be. He handled all our questions, concerns with the upmost professionalism. We love our pool, spa and deck... our backyard has been completely transformed. THANK YOU so much. I highly recommend 3D pools and landscape.
