Meet the Southland Team

Taylor and Zach founded Southland Pools and Screens after more than 10 years in the outdoor living and construction industries. They specialized in building patios and screen enclosures, working closely with pool builders across Texas to design and layout pools and outdoor spaces that complemented these structures. Over the years, Taylor and Zach successfully sold, managed, and constructed thousands of projects for clients statewide. As demand grew, clients began requesting additional features like outdoor kitchens, pavers, and pools, leading Taylor and Zach to create Southland Pools and Screens to meet these needs and offer complete outdoor living solutions.
