Built-In Hot Tubs
Custom Hot Tub Installation & Outdoor Spa DesignBuilt-in hot tubs are permanent, in-ground or deck-integrated spas designed for luxury, durability, and seamless outdoor living.
What Are Built-In Hot Tubs?
A built-in hot tub is more than just a spa—it’s a luxury outdoor retreat designed to bring comfort, wellness, and style into your backyard. Unlike portable hot tubs, which can be moved, in-ground and deck-integrated hot tubs are permanent installations that blend seamlessly with your pool, patio, or landscaping.
Whether you’re looking for in-ground hot tubs, concrete hot tubs, spillover spas, or custom-built hot tubs, our expert team specializes in hot tub design and installation tailored to your home and lifestyle.
Benefits of Built-In Hot Tubs

Deck-Integrated Spas
Deck-integrated spas are built directly into wood, composite, or stone decking. Best for: Homes with large patios, outdoor entertaining areas, and modern decks.
Concrete & Gunite Hot Tubs
Concrete and gunite hot tubs are extremely durable and highly customizable. Best for: Unique backyard layouts, fully customized spas, and long-lasting luxury.

Sunken hot tubs are either fully or partially recessed, often surrounded by stone, tile, or landscaping. Best for: Minimalist or natural backyard designs, patios, and elegant landscapes.
Luxury Spools (Spa + Pool Hybrids)
A spool is a combination of a spa and a small pool. Compact yet versatile, spools provide both hydrotherapy jets and a cooling pool effect.

We had The Pros install a vinyl fence in our backyard, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. From the initial estimate through the final installation, the team was professional, responsive, and easy to work with. The crew arrived on time, worked efficiently, and paid close attention to every detail. The quality of the installation is outstanding—the fence is perfectly aligned, sturdy, and completely transformed our backyard. They also did a great job cleaning up when the work was finished, leaving everything neat and tidy. It's refreshing to work with a company that does exactly what they promise.

Did a great job transforming my backyard from 45 stumps to a smooth level lawn and installed a fence that straight level and exactly what we asked for.Posted on Google Mario Barrenechea28 April 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. ThePros overall did a great job with finishing our backyard for a new house that left a lot of construction debris and an undesirable layout. Here are my pros/cons to share: Pros: * Got the job done with reasonably high quality * Dealt with a lot of our back-and-forth adjustments as the project took shape * Always wanted to make us happy, and offered us a better deal than a more local landscaper * We had them move giant boulders that were living in the backyard to other locations for an upcharge * The project included a design review at the outset, which involved one of their designers working with us on what we were looking for, and generated renders of what that would look like. This turned into the spec given to the construction crew so that everyone was on the same page. Cons: * The problems we had mainly were around "adhering to the spec" and doing so in a rushed way without finalizing details at every step of the way. The design review was held in the late summer, and by the time the project got started, it was late fall, waiting for the winter to pass, and then resuming and finishing work by early Spring, so that leaves a lot of time for details to be lost in translation, for example the right color of the mulch, degradation of trees planted, the margin from which the tree was to be planted against the wooden fence, etc. A bit more heads up and questions like, "Just confirming, where do you want the tree planted?" would have been greatly appreciated. * There were some tense moments between us and the construction crew. I understand they were there to do a job according to the spec, but "business and customer-facing acumen" would have been appreciated as well. Overall, we are very pleased with the work that was put in from ThePros and we'd consider them for future projects!Load moreVerified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
