Boardwalk Pools is a family legacy built on quality, integrity, and a passion for pools. It all began with “Grandpa Marcotte” back in 1960, laying the foundation for what would become a three-generation journey in the pool business. Dan, following in his father’s footsteps, grew up in the industry and has spent over 30 years honing his skills across the country – from Austin, Texas, to the California Bay Area, and now here in Houston. As a pool builder, repair technician, and factory representative, Dan’s expertise runs deep.
Now, Dan’s sons, Matt and Tom, are stepping up, eager to carry on the family tradition. Both graduates of Texas A&M University, Matt and Tom bring that same Aggie spirit to their work. Young, energetic, and enthusiastic – the third generation of Marcottes are ready to continue their family tradition of high reputation and quality service.
Together, the Marcotte family is dedicated to exceeding the expectations of homeowners in the greater Cypress area and help you find exactly what you’re looking for your swimming pool construction or pool maintenance.
Boardwalk Pools offers the following products and services:
PHTA – Pool and Hot Tub Alliance
The PHTA was formed in 2019 through the merger of The Association of Pool & Spa Professionals and The National Swimming Pool Foundation. Both organizations have similar goals of making swimming safe, healthy and fun, so the merger was a logical improvement.
PHTA is the world’s largest association representing swimming pool, hot tub and spa manufacturers, distributors, manufacturers’ agents, designers, builders, installers, supplier, retailers, and service professionals. PHTA offers pool and hot tub education and certification programs, provides valuable membership benefits, develops trusted industry standards and advocates for critical legislation.
PHTA members adhere to a code of ethics in business and technical practices and share a strong commitment to the safe, healthful, and enjoyable use of industry products.

Jandy Pro-Edge Builder
The Jandy “Pro-Edge” designation is reserved for a select few Jandy dealers who meet strict requirements for capability, reputation and customer satisfaction. Most Jandy equipment (pumps, filters, heaters, etc.) that is installed by an official Jandy Pro-Edge builder, receives a three-year warranty instead of the normal one-year warranty.
Jandy® pool and spa products are designed to let you spend time enjoying your pool and spa, rather than maintaining it.
