An HBW report based on the latest new swimming pool permits in Texas during the month of October 2018.

Last month, there were more than 1,315 swimming pool starts with a total construction value of nearly $68M in Texas.  Out of the four major metro areas reviewed (Dallas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio), San Antonio rose to the top having the greatest total number of new swimming pool permits on file (475 permits) for the one-month period.  While the average value of new pool construction was steady and consistent across the board with Dallas, Houston and San Antonio averaging $45k-$54k, Austin had several higher value projects that bumped the area’s average value for new pool construction to an uncharacteristically high average of nearly $70k.  Here is a breakdown of the new swimming pool construction permits that were added to the HBW database for Texas last month:
