Premier Pools & Spas of Lake Elsinore
Lake Elsinore’s west side runs into real hillside terrain, and gated communities like Canyon Hills are built right into it. That means grading and retaining walls come up more often here than in flatter parts of our territory, and it’s something we plan for from the first site visit rather than discovering partway through.
We build almost exclusively in gunite in Lake Elsinore, since it’s the only method that adapts cleanly to a sloped lot without forcing a compromise on shape or size.
Lake Elsinore Pool Building services
Gunite handles the hillside terrain common on Lake Elsinore’s west side better than a pre-formed shell. Add a spa, and most projects run around $100,000 depending on size and site conditions.
Fiberglass is available, though sloped and gated-community lots can make the truck and crane access it needs more difficult to arrange. It runs $15,000 to $25,000 more than gunite here.
Hillside lots in Lake Elsinore lend themselves naturally to dramatic water features, raised bond beam waterfalls, rock grottos, and slides that take advantage of the grade. These run $15,000 to $50,000 depending on complexity.

Lake Elsinore FAQs
Common questions from Lake Elsinore homeowners about building a custom inground pool with Premier Pools & Spas.
A pool alone starts around $60,000. Add a spa and most projects land near $100,000, with hillside lots sometimes running higher due to retaining wall needs.
Often, yes. Many properties on the west side need a retaining wall to keep the pool and deck safe on sloped ground, which adds $4,000 to $15,000 depending on the size of the wall.
Gated communities like Canyon Hills typically require architectural review for anything visible from the street. We prepare that submission alongside your city permit.
Yes. We handle the full submission through the City of Lake Elsinore’s permitting process so you’re not stuck navigating it yourself.
Gunite adapts to sloped, hillside terrain far better than a pre-formed fiberglass shell, and it gives us the freedom to design water features that work with the grade rather than against it.
Most projects run 4 to 5 months start to finish, though hillside lots requiring retaining wall engineering can push toward the longer end of that range.
