Custom pool design and construction in Placentia
Our custom pool construction process for Placentia homes is transparent from the first sketch to the final walkthrough. After the design is approved, we pull permits through the correct Placentia-area building department, schedule the excavation, install structural steel, shoot the shotcrete shell, plumb the equipment pad, tile and coping the perimeter, pour the surrounding decks, then plaster and start up the water chemistry. You'll always know what's happening next week and who is responsible for it. Because we self-perform structural, plumbing, tile, coping and plaster in-house, we control both the schedule and the quality — and that shows up in the finished product every Placentia client walks out to for the first time.
Pool remodeling and renovation in Placentia
Pool remodeling in Placentia is a specialty of ours because so many older Orange County pools now need updated finishes and equipment. We handle everything from a straightforward replaster and retile to full renovations that convert a 1970s kidney pool into a modern rectangle with a spillover spa, water feature and integrated deck. Every Placentia remodel starts with a candid assessment: what is worth saving, what should be replaced, what will produce the biggest visual and functional return, and how to phase the work if you want to spread the investment across seasons.
Infinity-edge and zero-edge pools in Placentia
Infinity-edge and zero-edge pools have become signature Pool Masters LA installations in Placentia. Infinity-edge pools (sometimes called negative-edge or vanishing-edge pools) work beautifully on Placentia hillside properties where the water can appear to spill into the horizon or the canyon beyond. Zero-edge pools bring that same water-meets-stone mirror effect to flat lots, with water lapping across a perfectly level rim into a hidden catch basin. Both designs require precise engineering, dead-level construction tolerances and carefully sized surge chambers — details we've refined across dozens of Placentia and Orange County builds. Explore our infinity-edge pool designs and zero-edge pool builds for inspiration.
Pool plastering and resurfacing in Placentia
Pool plastering and resurfacing is one of the most common calls we get from Placentia homeowners. Plaster has a lifespan — typically 10 to 15 years for standard white plaster and 15 to 20+ years for premium pebble or quartz finishes — and once the surface begins to stain, spot, delaminate or feel rough underfoot, it's time to replaster. Our Placentia replaster process includes draining the pool, chipping the old plaster or acid-etching a bonding coat, repairing structural issues, retiling the waterline if desired, replacing worn coping, applying the new plaster or aggregate finish by hand, and performing the full start-up water balance so the new surface cures correctly.

Water features and fountains in Placentia
Water features and fountains are what turn a nice pool into an experience. In Placentia backyards we regularly design and install sheer descents, sheet waterfalls, scuppers, deck jets, bubblers on tanning ledges, natural rock waterfalls, raised planter spillways, spa spillover walls and custom fire-and-water bowls. Every water feature is tuned during commissioning so the sound is right — gentle enough to talk over during dinner, loud enough to mask street noise when you want to relax after work. Good water features are as much about acoustics as they are about aesthetics, and that tuning is included on every Placentia build. See our fountains and water features options.
Pool coping and surrounding improvements in Placentia
The pool coping, waterline tile and surrounding hardscape are what tie the pool to the rest of the Placentia backyard. We work in travertine, limestone, granite, bluestone, porcelain pavers, poured-in-place concrete with saw-cut joints, and specialty finishes like tumbled cobble or Connecticut bluestone. The coping edge is where craftsmanship shows most — the miters, the corners, the drip line, the fit against the tile — and our masons take that detail seriously on every Placentia project. Surrounding improvements often include new decking, outdoor kitchens, pergolas, fire pits, landscape lighting and full drainage systems so the finished yard performs as well in January as it does in July. We also offer dial & coping and pool covers as part of the finish package.
Why Placentia homeowners choose Pool Masters LA
Placentia homeowners choose Pool Masters LA for a handful of reasons that keep coming up in our reviews: honest, itemized pricing with no bait-and-switch; an in-house design and construction team that stays with the project from day one to the final swim; strict permit and inspection compliance with the Placentia-area jurisdiction; and finish quality that still looks right a decade after the plaster cures. We're a family-run, licensed and insured California C-53 pool contractor (CSLB ##1112793), and our name goes on every Placentia pool we build.
