Our Story
Built on water. Proven by Georgia.
Jones Pools has been transforming Central Georgia backyards into private sanctuaries for over a decade — one meticulously crafted pool at a time.
Tom Jones — Founder & Master Builder
Founder Story
From a concrete truck to Central Georgia's most trusted name in pools.
Tom Jones spent his early twenties laying commercial foundations across Middle Georgia, heat cracking the pavement beneath him every summer. By 2011, he had a different vision: take the same uncompromising structural standards he'd learned in commercial work and bring them to the residential pool market — an industry he felt had grown complacent.
He started Jones Pools with two employees, a used excavator, and a belief that homeowners in Macon, Warner Robins, and beyond deserved pools built to outlast the warranty paper they were printed on. Thirteen years later, that belief hasn't changed. The equipment has.
“ Every pool we build is somebody's happiest summers for the next thirty years. That keeps us honest. — Tom Jones, Founder

Our Mission
We don't build pools.
We build
legacies.

Why Jones Pools
We're not the biggest.
We're the
most careful.
National pool franchises can move fast. We move right. Our job capacity is intentionally limited so that every project gets a lead builder who knows your name, your soil conditions, and your backyard by the time the first truck arrives.
When you call Jones Pools, Tom or Sarah answers. Not an answering service. Not a call center. The people building your pool.

Client Stories
Georgia homeowners speak.
“We got three bids. Jones Pools wasn't the cheapest — but Tom walked our entire property and caught a drainage issue the others completely missed. That detail saved us from a flooded shell. Worth every penny and then some.”
“Sarah kept us in the loop every single week. No chasing, no wondering. The pool came in on time and exactly on budget — which I genuinely did not expect from a construction project.”
“Five years later, our pool still looks like it was installed last month. Derek comes out for seasonal service and treats our equipment like it's his own. That's the Jones Pools difference.”
