Our History
A Legacy of Excellence
Our story began in 1979 with Rock Formations Inc., a company that revolutionized the industry by introducing manmade rock to residential swimming pools. Beyond residential projects, Rock Formations Inc. contributed to many iconic commercial installations, including Raging Waters Waterparks, Heritage USA in North Carolina, and international projects like LeoFoo Village in Taiwan, Paradise Village in Mexico, and the Radisson in Aruba. The company even tackled unique challenges, such as building a lagoon pool on a barge anchored near Cincinnati, Ohio.
The growing popularity of manmade rock led to the creation of RicoRock Inc. in 2003, a company renowned for its high-quality artificial rock products and systems. This was followed by RicoRock Construction Management, which executed complex custom projects beyond standard waterfall designs throughout the U.S. and the Caribbean.
At Rock Formations Texas, we honor this legacy by continuing to push the boundaries of artificial rock artistry for residential and commercial spaces, collaborating with designers and landscape architects to blend combined expertise with a firm commitment to innovation and quality. Whether you’re dreaming of a serene backyard oasis or an eye-catching commercial feature, we’re here to bring your unique vision to life.
