AQUATIC VESSELS & ARCHITECTURAL ENGINEERING

Custom gunite & infinity pools, built around your estate.

Precision negative-edge vanishing basins, flush spillover hydrotherapy spas, and monolithic shotcrete vessels engineered for complex slopes and modern estates.

ENGINEERING EXCELLENCE

Reliable structural precision when you need it most.

Every vessel is hydraulically calculated for optimal flow velocity and structural resilience—accommodating expansive clay, hillside hydrostatic pressures, and seamless zero-edge perimeter acoustics.

THE RIVIERA DIFFERENCE

The difference you'll notice from day one.

We eliminate contractor gaps by managing 3D CAD modeling, structural engineering, shotcrete placement, and artisan stone finishing in-house.

01 / SINGLE-SOURCE CONTROL

Complete In-House Build Teams

From geotechnical soil tests and 3D CAD modeling to stone coping miters, our staff executes every detail without subcontractor handoffs.

02 / RIGOROUS ENGINEERING

Monolithic 4,500 PSI Shotcrete

Every pool is framed with double-grid #4 steel rebar cages and high-density pneumatic concrete, guaranteed against structural failure for 25 years.

03 / NATURAL RESOURCE CARE

UV/Ozone Eco Hydraulics

Drinking-water-grade water purification paired with oversized Schedule-40 plumbing that cuts pump electrical draw by up to 70%.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Proven engineering that delivers enduring estate luxury.

From subterranean drainage grids and commercial-grade hydraulic pipe sizing to hand-troweled micro-pebble interiors, every detail is engineered to perform for decades with minimal maintenance.

Monolithic 4,500 PSI Shotcrete

High-density pneumatic concrete with double-curtain rebar grids built for zero movement.

Perimeter Negative-Edge Flow

Laser-calibrated vanishing weir edges with hidden balance surge tanks for mirror-still water.

Honed Travertine & Bluestone

Hand-mitered drop-face coping profiles quarried for maximum solar reflectivity and cool footing.

Smart App Telemetry & Control

Pre-heat your spa from your phone, calibrate LED light scenes, and automate mineral sanitation.

What our clients are saying

Read verified reviews from estate homeowners, custom home builders, and landscape architects.

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.”

Arthur Pendelton
Coastal Pile Pool

Negative-edge vessels require precise weir wall hydraulic calculations, redundant dual-suction surge basin capacity, and structural caissons or grade beams engineered to prevent slope slippage.

Most custom gunite and infinity pool builds are completed within 12 to 16 weeks following city engineering clearance and permit issuance.

Yes. Every vessel is custom-sculpted. We regularly integrate chiller-cooled 39°F cold plunges, flush Baja tanning ledges with bubblers, and in-water barstools.

We engineer dual-stage UV-C and corona-discharge ozone systems with automated pH/ORP dosing, giving you drinking-water-pure water clarity at 90% lower chlorine levels.

Every #4 Grade-60 steel-reinforced 4,500 PSI shotcrete basin we construct carries a written 25-year structural warranty that automatically transfers to new homeowners upon resale.
