Welcome to California Poolside
Voted one of Los Angeles California's top pool builders / contractors.
Mark Sidway
Pool Builder / Contractor in Los Angeles CA
Hey there, I'm Mark Sidway. And I really love swimming pools. For the past several decades, the 'easy way out' for pool builders was your basic rectangle or oval pool—easy to build, and people didn't complain much. But even as a kid, I always thought...can't we do better than that?
I mean, your average pool is fine for cooling off or swimming. But average pools make average back yards. When you're waking up every morning and staring out the window at your yard, would you rather see ordinary or extraordinary? That's where visionary design comes in.
And that's how California Poolside got started.
For more than 15 years, my team of elite pool maniacs and I have crisscrossed Southern California, and I have to say...we've built some of the best pools in Los Angeles (and beyond). Our secret is throwing the rulebook out the window. Forget about cost hikes, cut corners, boring design, and all the other issues associated with most pool contractors. There's a reason my team has earned the reputation of pool magicians, and we're proud of it.
Think you need magic to get the pool of your dreams? Not even close. Our pools are the real deal, and our next creation is looking for a loving home—your home. Stop flip-flopping, daydreaming and debating. Give us a call, fill out our contact form below, send a carrier pigeon—it's time to get to work.

We'll work with you through consultations to nail down the perfect look for your yard, home, lifestyle and budget. Guaranteed.

But fantastic design won't go anywhere without spectacular craftsmanship. Luckily, we've got more skilled builders than you can shake a stick at. Pumping systems, lights, stonework, concrete, excavation...we'll do everything is takes to get your pool up and running on time. Our pools don't just look great—they're also built to last.
Amazing Experience.
What do you get with fly-by-night pool builders? Rehearsed sales pitches. Lazy design sessions. Low-quality materials. Cut corners. Prices inflating way past your initial quote. To us, that's nowhere near good enough. We haven't been around for 15 years just because we build the best pools—we've thrived because we treat our customers like a million bucks. We're the friendly, honest builders you've been waiting for. Put simply, you're gonna love us. We promise.
