Top 5 by pool permits filed in the last 12 months. This is volume, not quality: a busy firm is not necessarily a careful one.
Before you move a slider, the list is in a default order built only from the permit record: how much of each firm’s record is this kind of job (weight 30), how often its permits reached completion (25), how many permits it filed in the last 12 months (15) and how quickly its permits closed (10). Each measure is ranked against the other 39 firms and pulled toward the middle when a record is short; a firm with a matched license problem is listed last.
The order comes from the Tyler permit file, not from reviews: 22 of 39 pool builders filed a permit in the last 12 months and 15% of their permits a year or more old were finished. Nobody pays to be listed or to move up, and there are no star ratings or reviews. The sliders and presets change the weights, and the order changes with them. How the records work in Tyler.

The license file we match against for Tyler rarely covers pool firms (0 of 39 matched), so a missing status here says nothing about a firm. Plumbers are licensed by the Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners and irrigators by TCEQ (not linked here); roofers, pool, driveway and general contractors need no state license. Ask for the license or registration number and check it with Texas TDLR license search. How to check a contractor's license in Texas →
