Canyon Oak Pools

There’s nothing better to Larry Parnell, founder and owner of Canyon Oak Pools, than knowing families are thoroughly enjoying their new pool. When his wife, Susan, shows him Instagram pictures of happy kids leaping in, dogs relaxing on the sun lounge, and dads grilling in the background, he admits he gets a bit teary-eyed sometimes. “That’s what a pool is all about — making incredible memories with family,” he says. “It’s fulfilling to see the end result.”

Canyon Oak Pools provides the highest-quality custom pools for families throughout North Texas. This highly regarded pool company has once again been voted by Living readers as the Best Pool Company in 2023. Whether you want to remodel your current pool or design the custom pool and spa of your dreams from the ground up, you can count on an unmatched level of communication every step of the way with Canyon Oak Pools.

Larry and his team understand that buying a pool is typically the second-largest investment for homeowners, and he knows that who you build with matters. That’s why he’s committed to providing exceptional service through exceptional communication. “Although I’ve been doing this for almost 30 years, I try to treat everyone like it’s the first pool I’ve built,” Larry says. “I commit at the very beginning that you’ll be communicated with and get the very best customer service.”

Happy customers are singing the company’s praises on Google. One raves, “Canyon Oak Pools not only met our expectations but exceeded them on every detail. Larry and Susan were onsite to oversee every milestone of the build to ensure it was up to their standards.” Another proclaims, “I would rate this company with 200 stars! They are everything you want in a builder.”

When designing your pool, you can be involved as much or as little as you like. You can close your blinds and open them up to a beautiful swimming pool, or share your precise vision with Larry. “We just finished a pool where the homeowner showed us diagrams of where they wanted everything, from the switches to the ceiling fan to the can lights,” Larry says. “I love it when homeowners are super-involved.”

Some popular pool features include rock grottos with cascading waterwalls and raised beams with water features. Larry says homeowners are also loving sheer descents, which are waterfall arcs of water that descend gracefully into the pool. “We’re doing more water features than we ever have before,” he says.

Outside of work, Larry and Susan are involved in their church, Snow Hill Baptist Church in Farmersville. They also sponsor events and organizations like the Blue Ridge Rodeo, Melissa and Blue Ridge ISD fundraisers, and several local animal rescue groups.
