Bradshaw Pools: Shotcrete Pools and Landscaping on the Wasatch Front

Bradshaw Pools is a pool and outdoor living construction company operating in Utah County and Salt Lake County, along the Wasatch Front corridor. The company presents itself as a business personally run by its owner, Brian, who handles estimating, design, and management of every project, so the client deals directly with him rather than with a salesman who hands off the work once the contract is signed. The company states it has been building in Utah since 1991 and has several technicians who have been with the company for more than thirty years.

Shotcrete Pools Built for Utah's Climate

The core of its business is shotcrete pools, a method in which the shell is sprayed and hand-finished rather than installed as a prefabricated unit. According to the company, this system allows for widths greater than 16 feet, as well as shapes, depths, and elevation changes that a molded shell cannot accommodate, and it stands up to Utah's characteristic freeze-thaw cycles. The company emphasizes that dimensions are tailored to the client's project rather than to a catalog, so extending a sun shelf or adding a bench in the deep end are drawing changes, not technical impossibilities.

Full In-House Execution Without Subcontracting

Bradshaw Pools maintains that it performs all trades involved in pool construction in-house, in contrast to the industry's common practice of subcontracting excavation, rebar, tile, coping, concrete, or plumbing. The company holds Utah contractor license #14259458-5501, with B100 General Building and S330 Landscape and Recreation classifications, allowing it to cover pool, deck, retaining wall, and irrigation under a single licensed contractor instead of splitting them among multiple subcontractors.

Outdoor and Landscaping Services

In addition to pools, the company's offerings include full landscape design and construction, with grading, planting, irrigation, and lighting. In the hardscaping and walls category, it offers structural and decorative walls, paver patios, and concrete flatwork set on a proper base. The lineup is rounded out with outdoor kitchens — built-in grills, stone bars, and countertops — sport courts for pickleball, basketball, and multi-sport use with proper base prep and drainage, and fire features such as fire tables, fire bowls, and built-in fireplaces, plumbed for natural gas or propane.

Service Area

The company serves Utah County and Salt Lake County and lists among its work areas the communities of Lehi, Alpine, Highland, Mapleton, Riverton, West Jordan, Draper, Saratoga Springs, Eagle Mountain, and Pleasant Grove. The site also describes an initial site visit where measurements are taken and the client is told what the site will allow before incurring any expense.

Customer Reviews

The site includes a 4.8-star Google rating and several testimonials from Utah homeowners. One of them recounts the renovation of a deteriorated pool after comparing six different bids and highlights the responsiveness and attention to detail of the person in charge. Another client mentions a pool built two and a half years earlier, on budget and in good condition. A third values the experience of working with Brian as the business owner.
