At Clarkson Pools, we don’t just build pools. We design complete outdoor living spaces where style, function, and connection come together. Whether you’re hosting guests or enjoying quiet moments with family, our team creates custom outdoor living designs that support the way you want to live outside.

As a licensed General Contractor, we are one of the few pool builders in Northeast Florida with the ability to manage your entire backyard project from start to finish. This includes custom cabanas, pavilions, and shade structures, along with outdoor kitchens, fire features, and more. By keeping every aspect of your project under one roof, you benefit from fewer delays, one trusted team, and a smooth experience from concept to completion.

Our team specializes in designing and building full backyard environments throughout Northeast Florida. By combining custom pools with cabanas, pavilions, and other shade structures, along with outdoor kitchens, fire features, and hardscape elements, we create spaces that maximize comfort, usability, and long-term value.

With more than 35 years of experience and a reputation built on craftsmanship and care, Clarkson Pools is trusted to transform backyards into lasting outdoor living retreats that reflect your lifestyle and are built to last.

What We Build

Shade Structures

Cabanas, pavilions, and pergolas are the centerpiece of many outdoor living spaces. These shade structures add comfort, protect from the sun, and create inviting areas for relaxing or entertaining year-round.

Outdoor Kitchens

Custom outdoor kitchens bring convenience and style outside. From built-in grills to full cooking spaces, we design kitchens that make entertaining effortless while withstanding Florida’s climate.

Fire Features

Clarkson Pools designs custom fire features that add atmosphere and extend the use of your backyard into every season. From fire pits to fireplaces, each design is built to enhance both style and comfort in your outdoor living space.

Hardscapes & Decking

Patios, pavers, turf, and decking form the foundation of any outdoor living design. We build durable surfaces that tie together pools, kitchens, and shade structures with both style and function.

Designed to Work Together

At Clarkson Pools, we create outdoor living spaces that flow seamlessly with your home, your pool, and the way you want to live outside. Our integrated approach ensures every element, from structure to surface, works together in both form and function.

Looking to add shade and comfort? Custom cabanas, pavilions, and pergolas provide the perfect solution, offering protected areas for lounging, dining, or entertaining throughout the year. When paired with a fully equipped outdoor kitchen or a custom fire feature, these spaces become true backyard destinations.

Every design is planned to complement one another and support the overall layout of your space. Whether you’re envisioning a private retreat, a family gathering place, or an entertainer’s paradise, Clarkson Pools brings it all together with Clarkson Quality in every detail.

Clarkson Quality Beyond the Pool

We bring the same craftsmanship, precision, and care to outdoor living spaces that we are known for in our custom pool builds. From design and permitting to construction and finishing, our team manages the entire process to deliver a smooth experience and a cohesive final result.

Covered structures are at the heart of our outdoor living designs. Whether it’s a cabana, pavilion, or custom pergola, these spaces provide shade, shelter, and a comfortable place to gather while enhancing both the function and beauty of your backyard.

Outdoor kitchens are another popular feature. From a simple grill station to a fully equipped cooking space with appliances, storage, and counter surfaces, we design kitchens that reflect how you like to cook and entertain. They make it easy to stay outdoors while hosting guests or enjoying a family meal.

Every element is designed to complement the others. Your pool, patio, kitchen, and shade structure should feel like one complete environment that supports the way you want to live outside.

Built to Entertain and Inspire

The best outdoor spaces bring people together. Whether it’s gathering with friends or winding down with family, we create outdoor living spaces that are made for connection, comfort, and unforgettable moments.

Fire features can add warmth, glow, and ambiance to your space, especially when designed as part of a larger outdoor living area. Built-in fire bowls, fire walls, and accent features can be seamlessly integrated into kitchens, patios, or covered structures to enhance both style and function.

Our team works with you to ensure every detail supports how you plan to use the space. Take a look through our outdoor living gallery for ideas and imagine the kind of evenings you could enjoy just steps from your back door.
