Our Story

Richard Cox founded Cox Pools Service Inc. in Birmingham, Alabama in 1955. Richard was the first to bring gunite pool construction from California to Alabama. Cox Pools Service Inc. opened offices in Dothan, AL, Panama City FL, and built thousands of gunite swimming pools, both commercial and residential.

Gordie Robinson bought the Birmingham operation of Cox Pools Service Inc. from Richard Cox in 1991. Under Gordie’s leadership Cox Pools Service Inc. continued to build the highest quality commercial and residential gunite swimming pools.

Dan Yoe, owner of Dan Yoe Swimming Pools, Inc., joined the team in 2000. He brings outstanding pool design and building expertise, which shows in our work.

Our management team brings together business, construction and design expertise. The team approach allows each member of the team to focus on their particular area and deliver an exceptional product.
