A look at recent knoxville swimming pools, renovations, and custom designs — gunite, fiberglass, and vinyl liner builds, indoors and out.
Every project below was designed, permitted, and built by the A-Grade Pools crew for a real Knoxville homeowner — no stock photos, no staged renderings. We've included a mix of new gunite construction, full renovations, and add-ons like spas, sun shelves, and outdoor living spaces so you can see the range of what's possible on a variety of lot sizes and budgets.
If you see a shape, finish, or feature you like, tell us during your free quote and we'll talk through how it would translate to your own backyard. Many of these builds also include the site work — grading, drainage, and decking — that goes into making a new pool functional, not just photogenic.
Clean-lined rectangular design with poured concrete decking. Built from the ground up, including excavation, steel and shotcrete shell, plumbing, and equipment pad.
Curved shape paired with a covered outdoor living space. The pavilion adds shaded seating so the backyard stays usable even on the hottest Knoxville afternoons.
Sharp angles finished with natural stone decking. A modern layout that keeps sightlines clean from the house to the water's edge.
Spillover spa with custom tile detailing. The raised spa doubles as a water feature, adding sound and movement to the main pool.
Updated tile, coping, and decking on an existing pool. A good example of how a dated pool can be brought back to life without a full rebuild.
Shallow tanning ledge built for lounging and entertaining. A popular add-on for families with younger kids who want a shallow spot to play.
Deck jets and accent lighting added for evening ambiance. Lighting and water features are often the easiest upgrades to add during a renovation.
Durable paver surround built for everyday use. Pavers hold up well to pool traffic and are easy to patch or replace individually over time.
Pool build paired with an adjoining entertaining area. Designed alongside the outdoor kitchen so both spaces share one cohesive layout.
The photos only show the finished result — here's what happens before the water goes in.
We start with your lot, budget, and how you plan to use the space, then sketch a layout that fits all three.
Local permits and inspections are handled by our team so nothing holds up the schedule later.
One dedicated crew handles excavation, shell, plumbing, and decking, so there's no handoff between subcontractors.
Tile, coping, equipment startup, and a full walkthrough before we consider the project done.
Yes — most of these designs can be adapted to a different lot size or budget. Bring the photo that caught your eye to your free quote and we'll talk through what would change.
Both. The gallery mixes ground-up gunite construction with full and partial renovations of existing pools, so you can see examples of each.
