In Riverside, CA the Powell and Associates, Inc., team has found a system that works. Our success is evidenced through our satisfied clients and great business relationships. Over 75% of our jobs are referrals or repeat clients. Our success ultimately translates into your success. The end results are completed and approved plans and truly delighted clients. This is how we build good relationships. We are certain that from the first phone call, until you are holding the permit for your project, you will enjoy the same!

"Straight Edge Builders did a great job navigating the complexities of converting our two-story garage to a new home for my parents. They stuck with us as we worked to overcome mistakes by the architects (don?t hire Powell & Associates) and permitting issues. They always had someone working so we never felt abandoned for another job. This was important because we needed it done as soon as possible. This project was unique for a variety of reasons. The property is a historic landmark which required them to work well with our consultant and other specialty contractors. They balanced preservation requirements with modern design and handicapped accessibility throughout. Overall, Mitch and Dustin exceeded expectations at every turn. They expertly customized the project to our unique needs. We would highly recommend them for any project that requires skill, adaptability, and a high level of care."

Building design services FAQs

Most municipalities require a building permit before you put up a pool house. Rules and fees vary widely depending on where you live and the local regulations in your area. Check with your local building department or general contractor early on in your pool house project, so permit costs and timelines don’t catch you off guard.

If you’re building a custom pool house, you can expect the entire process to take two to three months from the design phase to the end of construction, or even as much as a year for very large or complex pool houses. If you’re installing a prefabricated kit or shed, the process is much faster, averaging one to three days.

A pool house is generally sized between 100 square feet and 800 square feet, which means its dimensions directly reflect its intended functionality. A compact pool house, measuring 100 to 150 square feet, serves as an efficient storage or utility space, while a pool house of 300 square feet or more offers a comfortable room for changing, relaxation, and socializing. The size you choose depends on the intended use and design of your outdoor space, ensuring that the structure meets your lifestyle needs.

The common types of pool houses include guesthouses, standard pool houses, and sheds. A guesthouse is a small lodge adjacent to the primary home that provides overnight accommodations with essential amenities. A standard pool house is built near the pool to offer storage, changing facilities, and a relaxation zone. A shed is a simple structure designed for storing pool equipment and garden tools. Each type serves a distinct purpose and enhances your outdoor living experience.
