PARADISE VALLEY, AZ

“Riviera engineered a cantilevered infinity pool across a 14-foot granite drop that three other builders said was impossible. Every milestone hit the exact week promised.”

Elena Vance
Edge Pool & Cabana

CUSTOM BUILDER PARTNER

“As an estate home builder, coordinating pool plumbing with house foundations is usually a bottleneck. Riviera’s CAD documentation and schedule adherence are unmatched.”

Harrison Sterling, AIA
Principal, Sterling Custom Estates

WESTLAKE HILLS, TX

“Their 3D night-lighting and drainage study solved elevation issues nobody else caught. Two years after handover, our Pentair smart automation runs effortlessly.”

Sophia Mercer
Perimeter-Overflow Lap Pool

SCOTTSDALE, AZ

“From our sunken swim-up bar to the motorized louvered pavilion and outdoor kitchen, Riviera handled every permit, gas line, and electrical run in-house.”

Devon Laurent
60-ft Resort Lagoon

BRENTWOOD, CA

“The 3-inch cast acrylic viewing panel and board-formed concrete spa look like a piece of modern sculpture. The stonework crew mitered every travertine corner by hand.”

Claire Brooks
Acrylic-Wall Plunge

NAPLES, FL

“Zero surprise change orders from day one. We received weekly drone updates while out of state and returned to a crystal-clear mineral pool ready for our first swim.”

Riviera has designed and built luxury gunite pools, perimeter-overflow spas, and turnkey outdoor living environments for over 25 years, completing more than 340 private estate commissions.

Never. Unlike brokers who outsource every phase, Riviera employs full-time structural engineers, ACI-certified shotcrete crews, and master stone masons under one roof for complete quality control.

Most turnkey commissions—including 3D CAD engineering, municipal permitting, excavation, 4,500 PSI shotcrete, and imported travertine decking—are completed within 12 to 16 weeks from permit issuance.

Yes. Over 60% of our commissions are executed in partnership with custom home builders and AIA architects prior to certificate of occupancy, ensuring seamless foundation, utility, and elevation alignment.

Every #4 Grade-60 steel-reinforced 4,500 PSI shotcrete shell we construct is guaranteed against structural cracking or water loss for 25 years, and transfers automatically if you sell your estate.
