Staycation handles the permit process for you
Garden Ridge is a city in southwestern Comal County with its own building department, and a small extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ) of about half a mile around the city.
The City of Garden Ridge Building / Inspections department, 9400 Municipal Parkway, issues permits. The city requires both a building permit and an electrical permit for a swimming pool, a separate permit if blasting is needed, and inspections of the pool's location and the finished barrier.
On-site sewage facility (septic) permits in Garden Ridge are handled by the Comal County Engineer's Office. For homes in the ETJ or elsewhere in unincorporated Comal County, we confirm the permitting office for your address.
Staycation handles the permit process for you and builds every project to code, including the safety barrier the city requires around every outdoor pool.
At Staycation Fiberglass Pools, we specialize in building fiberglass inground pools designed to fit your lifestyle, property, and vision. Whether you’re starting from scratch or planning your dream pool, our team uses installation methods, including chipped stone backfill, reinforced return fittings, etc, ensures long-term strength performance.
Staycation Fiberglass Pools offers a diverse selection of premium pool designs by partnering with well-known U.S. pool manufacturers such as San Juan Pools, Imagine Pools, and Aqua Technics. This ensures proven quality, style variety, and long-lasting performance.
What sets Staycation apart is our commitment to precision and durability. Every project benefits from industry-proven construction techniques and materials like chipped stone backfill, etc, designed specifically for fiberglass pools. This attention to detail ensures your pool is not only beautiful but built to perform for decades.
Our pool services cover everything from renovation and resurfacing to ongoing maintenance and repair, giving your existing pool a fresh look and long-lasting performance. Whether you need surface upgrades or structural improvements, or modern enhancements, our team can help. We also provide routine inspections, professional cleaning, and expert fiberglass pool maintenance tips to help prevent issues.
Our fiberglass pool installation process is seamless and precise, built on 20+ years of expertise and advanced techniques. We partner
with industry giants like San Juan Pools, the original fiberglass pool manufacturer since 1958, known for their cutting-edge technology
and unique features like negative-edge pools and swim-up bar seating. We also offer designs from Aqua Technics, Thursday Pools, and
our exclusive Signature Line, ensuring you get a pool that’s as unique as your Garden Ridge home.
At Staycation Fiberglass Pools, we live by our core values: integrity, customer experience, and education first. We believe a pool isn't just an installation—it's an investment in your happiness. That's why we use advanced methods like crushed stone backfill to prevent shifting, re-enforced return fittings to stop leaks, and Buffalo Bars to fuse the pool shell to your patio securely. Unlike some builders who cut corners with sand or steel rebar, we opt for composite rebar—stronger, lighter, and rust-free—for a pool that lasts a lifetime.
Our fiberglass pool installation includes a 12" thick bond beam around the shell for structural stability and a de-watering sump pipe to manage groundwater, protecting your investment long-term. We even ensure safety with VGB-compliant main drains, debunking myths about fiberglass pool dangers while keeping your pool easy to maintain—just 30 minutes a week!
What Garden Ridge homeowners should know before they build
Garden Ridge is limestone country, with an active limestone quarry inside the city, and a Comal County soil evaluation on one Garden Ridge lot found rock about a foot below the surface. We plan the excavation for the rock we find, then backfill with crushed stone and add a de-watering sump so the shell stays stable.
The city's land use plan calls for single-family homes on lots of three-quarters of an acre or larger, and homes here are often on on-site septic systems. We plan the pool around the septic tank and drain field, the city's building setbacks, and the crane's path past oaks, fences and utility lines.
Some Garden Ridge neighborhoods, such as The Enclave of Garden Ridge, have a homeowners association. If yours does, plan on architectural approval before construction starts. We supply the pool layout and drawings a review committee will ask for.
With over 150 designs in our portfolio, Staycation Fiberglass Pools offers Pool Models for every Garden Ridge homeowner. Our collection includes timeless rectangular pools perfect for modern aesthetics, freeform shapes that blend naturally with outdoor spaces, and Roman or Cathedral-end pools that add a touch of sophistication. Looking for extra luxury? Explore our pool-spa combos or innovative features like beach entries and swim-up bars, crafted in partnership with top manufacturers. Whether you want a compact pool for a cozy yard or a spacious design for entertaining, we’ll help you find the perfect fit.

I will definitely recommend these gentlemen to anyone looking to have a pool installed. They made our dreams come true after being scammed by our previous contractor. Thank you Jeff and Shawn and everyone involved.

Often, yes. Garden Ridge homes are often on on-site septic systems, so we locate the tank and drain field during the consultation and design the pool, decking and equipment around them and around the city's setbacks.
