Teserra remodeled our pool about five years ago, and the work has truly stood the test of time. They did an excellent job with new coping, tile, and pebble, and the pool still looks fantastic today. Bobby came to our property throughout the process and walked us through every stage of the construction with clear communication, which made everything smooth and stress-free. Recently, our neighbors began major construction next door, and we asked Teserra to come out and assess the structural condition of our pool. Bobby responded quickly, came out to evaluate everything, and provided a detailed report to help us avoid any potential issues down the road. It really says a lot about a company when, even five years later, they show up and stand behind their work. I truly appreciate Teserra's responsiveness, integrity, and continued commitment to their clients. I would absolutely recommend them. read more

I added a pool to my home two years ago and I am still thrilled with it. More important, as a service provider, Teserra has really been a great partner. I wanted a commercial grade pool that would hold up well in an Airbnb environment, and they have been a great choice. Recently, we called for service and Ivan Garcia came over and handled our concern. He does great work! Thanks Ivan! read more

Crestwood Communities Piz reconsider if you are thinking of purchasing here. Price is high and quality is low. @teserra_Teserra: Builders of Exceptional Outdoor Living build our pool (included with home) super poorly; coping is off line and uneven, uneven color, spotted color fading and poor super after bringing this up. DARREN ( @teserra_outdoors ) rep said for us to wait for 5 months for color to settle and sports to even out (mind you this is pebble). I msg all all reps and said "You purchase a car that doesn't work You are told to drive it for 5 months for it to settle in And then the dealer can consider fixing it DOESN'T SOUND PROCESSIONAL, ETHICAL AND ALL BULL SHIT TALKING Do you accept or not !!??!! Piz fix our pool!!!! " and no reply yet! Does this makes sense to anyone? read more

I had a great experience with Teserra Outdoors. Steve, Rudy, Bobby, Gary were professional and delivered what was promised. I have more phases to my projects and I plan to definitely hire them again. read more

See all

We have always wanted a pool and we decided to get estimates from three companies . Well Teserra was the best company as far as they are very personable and professional. They say what they mean they finish on time and if there's any little adjustments they included in the price. This pool company I would recommend 200% the workers were all professionals and they got my pool done in under two months that's incredible. I have to commend salesman Steve Luna for his patience with me but more so Bobby Jones the manager ! Bobby and Steve make a great team ! Steve is a great landscaper designer also they did our front and back yard to perfection. Bobby was on site 2-3 times a week ... he always answers his texts and so agreeable with great ideas but listens to yours ... i would say but hey I need this and that and he would make it happen...and never complained about my lists each time I gave them to him... we just laughed --we really do feel as if we live at a resort with the palm trees - the landscaping - the lights and our salt water dream pool.. we hope to make many memories here.. we give them 10 stars !!!!! Perry and Rosie Apostle read more

They just sent a tech out to detect an issue with the spa and Jay did such a good job, I felt compelled to write a review, which I rarely do. Teserra has done a great job on everything from hardscape, upgraded pool equipment, firepit, and regular pool cleaning for a year, since we bought new construction a year ago. As we hunted for vendors, Teserra kept coming up as the leader in the desert and the reasons why continue to shine thru. I got a hose tip stuck in the skimmer a year ago and it got cut off and finally made it's way thru the system to block the jets at the valve the other day. Jay took the valve apart and had to do some realy tricky surgery to get the hose tip out and replace the valve. Great work and now the spa works better than ever. Lifesaver! read more

Teserra built small swiming pool for my backyard, and althought took a longer than I expected, I must compleiment Bobby, the project manager. bobby was always professional, extremerely responsible, and, most importantly, he kept his promises regarding maintenance. I believe maintenance service is more important than construction itself. I sincerely thank Bobby for his consistent willingness to help. Thanks Bobby. read more

Teserra - Teserra built a small swimming pool for my backyard - Landscaping Near Me - Orange, California

Our HOA had about 2,000 sq ft of 40 year old concrete around our pool and jacuzzi that was worn out and needed to be replaced. We contacted Teserra and they walked us through the entire planning process. We met with the designer at the showroom and nursery and were offered many great options within our budget. Teserra handled all the details including the city permit applications and sign-off. Demolition was quick and efficient. The Teserra demolition and installation crew was hard-working and professional. Change orders are inevitable with replacement projects and Teserra was easy to work with when those issues came up. They did an amazing job and completed the entire project in about 3 weeks. Our community pool deck is brand new and it was a great investment. We have happy homeowners and a refreshed pool area. Add'l note - Since installation, Tropical Storm Hilary passed through SoCal and there was enough rain to cause our pool and jacuzzi to overflow. The deck installation was sloped perfectly and all the water drained as it should have. I am very happy with the performance of the drains and the slope of the deck. Hat tip to Steve and Bobby and their amazing crew for a job well done. read more

Teserra designed and installed a 7' x 10' spool at our Long Beach CA home. Jeremy supervised the development, approval, and construction of the perfect addition to our home. Our grandkids, and we, love the spool and Teserra made the entire process simple, clear, and on-time. We strongly recommend Teserra. read more

I have sent them numerous messages. They answer me: Are you the one making the decisions? Are you the owner? Then after they do not call, text or write me. I have sent them several messages. They apologize saying they will contact me. No luck! read more

I would like to thank the team at Teserra for all the hard work and tireless efforts to make our backyard dream a reality. From our initial design engagements and later alterations with Brent to the logistical oversight of Rudy and Fred and their demolition, concrete, piping, coping, tiling and landscape teams. There were several unforeseen curveballs along the way, ranging from 50 year old inaccurate city plot plans to 50 year old leaning walls and other issues that the team adapted to and resolved. We also selected several changes/upgrades along the way and were readily accommodated. Brent was extremely responsive with order changes, and Rudy would arrange implementation in a timely manner. Fred regularly checked in with me, by phone and in person to ensure our satisfaction. We could not be happier with the outcome. Our family lifestyle has significantly changed. We spend our family time together, outdoors, no iPads, no iPhones :) read more

I believe I wrote a review over a year ago after the initial pool construction (recoating with pebble, all new equipment, etc.) and gave a 5 star review. My opinion of this company, if anything, has improved. They recently replaced the salt generator cartridge (under warranty) (service done by Jay) within days of my call. I was not even aware it was under warranty. One of the most responsive companies I have dealt with. read more

I live in Yorba Linda This company has dropped the ball a number of times in my $400,000 job. They are quick to take your money but follow up with poor service and send out subcontractors that have no idea. When they sold me they told me their people would be doing the job, all I've seen is subcontractors one after the next. I do not recommend them to anyone I'm ready to cancel the job me look for someone else to finish. read more

From the beginning to end and everything in-between I can't say enough good things. They made the design process, submission for permits, and association approval a breeze! Anytime something wasn't quite right (this is construction after all) they were right there to make things right. It is hard to say that about most contractors. I would certainty use them again and HIGHLY recommend! read more

I wanted an estimate for some pool work. I left three messages and never received a return phone call.

This company is really Disgusting and hateful！ I want use all bad word that I can say to them ! First , everyone at this company is liar and con man! A guy called Austin didn't do anything he promised in six month ! John in teserra is an official stupid ! He acts like a designer at the beginning of my project and at the end he acts like a shop helper "everything is not his responsibility"! He sounds like he is very kind can do anything for customer but the real is he did nothing. Have a very bad heart ! I only seen kenn 3 times I don't know what is his job in this company and he came to my house take a look and never helps and never changed ! I only need to build a swim pool , a fountain and some tiles plants on my back yard that takes more than one year still not finish ! And they all disappear ! Very very Irresponsible! For me to understand ! Teserra outdoor Orange County only have three employee ! There landscape planting guy Leo is funny too ! You have to watch every single plant and minutes he planting ! If not ! Some bad thing gonna happen! They didn't finish anything on my back yard on good way ! My pool Leaking water！ fountain not working. Light broken ! Tiles unfinished! And they think they finished the work and can disappear ! For pool Austin promise someone gonna come fix my pool but never happen ! I still didn't get one of the gate on my plan ! When they doing my landscape they destroy all my walls and windows ! They didn't fix and gave me too many reasons and promise me 20 times about "come next week" and my wall and window still not been cleaned ! I do not understand how and why people can give this company 5 star on yelp ! All my neighbors in hidden canyon who works with this company hate them. All of them !!!!! Don't hire them please ! Save yourself ! read more

If you're a fan of bait and switch, and horrrrrrrendous follow up and zero sense of urgency then this company is for you. Our second rep blamed our first rep, and then he is even worse. After a good design and bid, we were literally trying to give them our money for about 8 months. They sent us electronic copies for our HOA - HOA rejected with 3 comments and requested paper copies...4 months later they dropped off paper copies WITHOUT THE COMMENTS incorporated...1 month later after getting a text saying they will drop off revised plans with comments incorporated - still no plans. just horrific service. no clue if they know how to build, but can't imagine anyone even getting to that stage with them...just started over with primier pool and spa...more money but they are willing to actually participate in a transaction read more

The OC team was great. We really enjoyed how professional the team was from start to finish. I've recommended Teserra to multiple friends and neighbors. Teserra installed for us a pool, slide, BBQ and landscape. Gary, Bobby, Steve were great on management side. Rudy Ortiz was the foreman and I couldn't have asked for better. He kept his crews on task, extremely polite and knowledgeable and was great around my kids and wife. Rudy always answered my calls and questions. I highly recommend Teserra and Gary Stift and Rudy Ortiz team. read more

Teserra recently completed our pool project in Orange County. Despite industry-wide material shortages and supply challenges, Teserra finished on time and within budget. Teserra's in-house masonry crew did an exceptional job. Quality is impeccable. read more

After a few weeks, Bryan from Teserra reached out about our request for an estimate. I must say, the visit was well worth the wait. Bryan had so many ideas and showed us renderings which he modified to respond to our wishes, right there and then. He was straightforward, creative, listened well and was a pleasure to deal with. Not giving a 5 rating just because it took the company much longer than promised to respond to our initial request for an estimate, but when they did they turned it around. read more

We just finished our pool and spa by Teserra and very pleased! Nobody likes construction, but they performed as they said and stayed on schedule even when faced with technical challenges. We love the results- congratulations to a great team of guys. Highly recommended. read more

Numerous mistakes were made on the planning and execution of our hardscape project, e.g., drains were misplaced, plumbing was wrongly installed, pavers were miscut, etc. To correct mistakes, Teserra presented overages to cover costs for unapproved, corrective, work, well above original estimates. Moreover, accounting errors in Teserra's favor were caught and presented to the project superintendent - in detail. No action was taken in return, and the job was left unfinished. Concerted efforts (including pictures of unfinished work), made in good faith, to get them to complete the job were to no avail. read more

Could not have had a better experience with Teserra. We did a complete pool remodel and updated our pool from the classic 80's look. Steve the sales guy was quick to respond to all of my questions and that didn't stop even after we made our first payment and the demo had started. He made us feel like a priority throughout the process which is not always what you get from a sales person after the sale has been made. Bobby the construction manager was also a rockstar. We had simultaneous construction projects going on at the house and Bobby's advice and great communication allowed us to prioritize finishing the roof and exterior so that the pool turned out perfect and wasn't damaged in the process. This delayed us finishing the pool however we never felt pressured by Bobby to get the job done and he put the outcome of the pool first. The pool turned out better than we had imagined and we are extremely happy to have it finished before summer. We upgraded to a blue pebble and I can't tell you how good it looks! It's called Lakeside Micro Fusion. Would highly recommend Teserra... not only for the amazing work they do but the communication and customer service exceeded our expectations. read more

Chances are you will only build one pool in your lifetime. You want your project to stay on budget, you want it to be completed on time and you want to have a team who will listen to you and communicate clearly and promptly. Teserra provided all of that for us. We couldn't be happier with each step of the process. Our designer, Brent captured our vision precisely. He was always responsive to questions and was a pleasure to work with. Rudy was the supervisor and provided an explanation for each step of the process and immediately addressed any concern. I particularly appreciated that the working team always cleaned up the site when they were done for the day. We are so happy with our pool and highly recommend Teserra. read more

Working with Teserra was very easy. They stuck to the quoted price and did not constantly try to convince us to add additional costs. The process was very quick and the team did a great job. We have had a few different contractors work on our yard... Each time the project took forever and one person would show up and work a few times a week. Not with Teserra! This crew was at the house working hard 5 days a week. They were very nice and cleaned up at the end of each day. They even put up fencing nightly so my dogs could still go out in the yard while the construction was going on. Throughout the process they made sure we were always happy with the work they were doing. My husband says I am very particular, and in my opinion hiring Teserra to build our pool was a great decision. read more

Highly recommended! Brent at Teserra is great to work with and can really bring your outdoor escape vision to life. Cannot recommend enough.

As a Real Estate agent it's important to refer only the best to my clients and friends which is why I have Teserra on speed dial. I always like to give clients a few options but time after time it's Teserra that earns their business. Kenn is on top of it and will tell you directly if he can't do a job and will offer other solutions. He's also good at constant communication which I feel is important when handing over clients, I want them to feel well taken care of. Overall, the relationships they establish are just as quality as the work they perform. They are a step above anyone else in the industry. read more

I've been shopping for a company to build pool and/or jacuzzi for my house and wasn't having any luck finding a company that I was happy with. Finally, I was referred to Tessera Outdoors by a friend who has done some work with them in the past. After seeing some of their work and talking to Kenn, I can confidently say that when I decide to move forward with this project I will definitely be calling Tessera Outdoors! read more

Working with this company has been extremely helpful to my current project! Jim and Kenn have been a wonderful team to work with! Their work ethic and integrity was a plus ten! I would recommend their work to everyone!! read more

Scheduled an appointment for a quote to re-tile and re-plaster an in-ground swimming pool. No show /no call for our appointment. I will not give no-shows a second chance! If this is the quality of their work for an estimate, I wouldn't hire them to perform work for us. read more

Kenn Fritts is the ultimate professional in his field, calm, experienced, and perceptive. He is a gentleman, direct and honest. He didn't waste our time with salesmanship, he offered numerous resources and produced results. We didn't feel rushed yet the outcome was immediate and beyond our expectations! read more
