Common questions

Should I check permits on an Irving pool?

Yes. Ask whether the pool, decking and electrical work were permitted with the City of Irving. Ask for the final inspection record.

Do Las Colinas rules affect pool fences?

They can. The Las Colinas Association sets design standards for homes and landscaping. Check its rules along with the city's.
