As North Texas prepares a warm welcome for summer this month, the excitement for longer days and time spent outdoors sets in. While many are just now turning their attention to their patios and lawns, Heather and Jason Weisz of Weisz Selection have already been busy, pouring their energy into turning ordinary backyards into showstopping personal retreats.
For the Weisz family, backyard living isn’t just about pools or patios—it’s about creating full environments that feel like an extension of the home. Their vision has always been rooted in quality and individuality, offering something far beyond the standard swimming pool installation. Jason explained that the business was born from a desire to raise the bar in outdoor design.
“We started out trying to build the best pool that people could buy in the industry,” he said.
From the beginning, their focus was on excellence in craftsmanship and on delivering something truly unique in a market filled with repetition. Jason explained that the business was born from a desire to raise the bar in outdoor design.
“I think the uniqueness [sets us apart]…there's not one of our projects that’s the same as another…We're kind of in a very custom niche,” Heather said.
That one-of-a-kind approach didn’t happen overnight. The Weisz story is a classic example of growth through grit and experience. Jason’s career began back in the 1980s, pushing a lawnmower through Texas yards. Over time, he expanded into landscaping and eventually discovered his passion for designing more comprehensive outdoor spaces.
This hands-on experience, built over decades, became the foundation of a company that today delivers full-scale outdoor living concepts. Weisz Selection not only designs these spaces, but it also brings them to life.
“I think that's one of the things that sets us apart, too, is that we're a one-stop shop…We do everything,” Heather said. “We look at the backyard and develop an overall concept and master plan, and we can complete all of it.”
Unlike many companies that outsource various aspects of a project, Weisz Selection handles everything in-house—from design to execution.
“Jason has an uncanny ability to walk into a backyard and listen to the customer's wants and incorporate all of the aspects or elements that the customer wants…creating it in a useful, beautiful [way],” Heather said.
Today’s homeowners are dreaming bigger than ever. Pools are just the beginning. More clients are seeking complete outdoor living spaces, including kitchens, covered living areas, fire pits, and custom structures. Jason and Heather have fully embraced this shift through creativity and collaboration.
Jason leads the charge on the design side, while Heather keeps things running behind the scenes. Together, they’ve built a culture centered on collaboration and trust—and they’re quick to point out that their success is deeply tied to their team.
“We have an amazing team, so it's not just Jason and me,” Heather said. “We could not do it without our team.”
Clean, modern styles are in, with black-and-white color schemes becoming a popular choice among clients. Multi-functional spaces are also in demand, with more homeowners asking for features like mother-in-law suites and dual-purpose structures for entertaining and everyday living.
“We like the uniqueness, the stuff that's different… that you don't see every day…that stands out and says, ‘Wow, that's stunning!'" Heather said.
One particularly popular feature right now is the “spool”—a hybrid spa and small heated pool that offers the best of both worlds. In areas where space is at a premium, spools provide the opportunity for both relaxation and exercise without the footprint of a full-sized pool. These compact solutions are a favorite among North Texas homeowners with smaller yards.
No matter the size or scope of the project, the Weisz team prides itself on attention to detail and unwavering transparency.
“[A] huge thing [is that] we don't go back to our homeowners with change orders unless they are really changing something,” Jason said. "We don't say, ‘Hey, we forgot to put this in there; forgot to put that in there.' ”
For Heather and Jason, what they do goes far beyond design or construction. It’s about crafting experiences—creating personal havens where memories can be made. With each project, they are reminded of why they started this journey in the first place.
“We get to do fun, unique things every day; no two projects are the same,” Heather said. “We're just grateful that we get to do what we do, and we have the team that we have.”
