Corpus Christi Pool Pros provides professional water features & tanning ledges in Corpus Christi, TX for residential and commercial properties across the Coastal Bend. Tanning ledge and water feature installation in Corpus Christi adds the part of the pool that actually gets used every day, not just photographed. A tanning ledge, also called a Baja shelf or sun shelf, is a 6 to 12 inch deep platform at one end of the pool, and adding two bubblers turns it into the most-occupied square footage in the yard. Parents of toddlers ask for it first. Everybody else discovers within one summer why it is the feature people mention when they recommend us. Ledges can be built into a new shell easily and cut into an existing pool during a remodel with more effort, and either way the design decision is size: eight by ten feet is usable, five by six is a decoration. Sheer descents are the second most requested feature and the best value in the category. A clean 12 to 36 inch wide sheet of water falling off a raised bond beam looks deliberate, sounds good without drowning conversation, and costs a fraction of a boulder waterfall. Scuppers and pot features do something similar with less structure. Laminar jets with LED cores throw a lit arc of water across the pool and cost less than most people assume, though they need clean water and a dedicated line to look right. Rock waterfalls and grottos still have a place on larger Coastal Bend lots, especially where the ground already slopes, but they need more pump than people expect and the plumbing has to be sized for it from day one rather than retrofitted. Two honest pieces of advice. First, decide during design even if you defer the installation. Stubbing out plumbing for a future sheer descent while the shell is open costs a few hundred dollars. Adding it after the deck is poured costs thousands and rarely looks as integrated. Second, every water feature increases surface agitation, which increases evaporation and chemical demand. On the Gulf Coast with a nine-month season that is a real ongoing cost, so build the features you will genuinely use and skip the ones that exist for the listing photos. We also plumb features to their own valve and speed setting so you can run them when you are outside and shut them off when you are not.
With 15+ years of experience, our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — gunite and shotcrete shells, fiberglass pool shells, pebble, mini-pebble and quartz interior finishes, glass and porcelain waterline tile, travertine and shell-stone coping, saltwater chlorination at roughly 3,200 ppm — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Corpus Christi and nearby communities including Portland, Robstown, Aransas Pass, Ingleside.

Materials, equipment and how we do water features & tanning ledges
The difference between water features & tanning ledges that lasts and water features & tanning ledges that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with gunite and shotcrete shells, fiberglass pool shells, pebble, mini-pebble and quartz interior finishes, glass and porcelain waterline tile, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Corpus Christi job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. 15+ years of pool work in the Coastal Bend means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
