How We Work

From planning through completion, you'll know exactly what's happening at each stage.

Consultation & Design

We visit your Alachua property, discuss your vision, measure the space, and review soil and drainage conditions before sketching your design.

Permitting

We file all required permits with the City of Alachua or Alachua County and handle plan reviews so compliance is on track.

Excavation & Prep

Our crew grades the site, sets up barriers, and prepares the basin. Inspectors verify setback distances from property lines.

Shell & Systems Install

The pool shell goes in, then plumbing, electrical, and equipment bonding. Licensed subs handle specialized work per code.

Decking & Finishing

Coping, decking, tile, and any automated controls are installed. Each inspected separately to ensure safety.

Final Inspection

County inspector approves safety, barriers, electrical bonding, and all code items before you fill and enjoy the pool.

You'll always know what's happening next—and when.

Permit & Safety Expertise: Every pool in Alachua County requires setback compliance, barrier fencing, electrical bonding, and final county inspection. We know these rules cold and build to exceed them.

Why Local Experience Matters

Alachua's soil, climate, and building rules are specific. We work within them every day.

We Know Alachua Codes & Permits

The City of Alachua Building Department and Alachua County Growth Management have specific pool codes. We file correctly, respond to reviews on schedule, and schedule inspections before contractors show up.

Soil & Drainage Expertise

Alachua has sandy soils and a high water table. We evaluate each lot, recommend basin depths, and install proper drainage so your pool stays stable and doesn't fill with groundwater.

Electrical and plumbing work must be done by licensed Alachua contractors. We coordinate all subs, collect licenses, and ensure every receipt shows county compliance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a permit for a swimming pool in Alachua?

Yes. Every residential swimming pool, hot tub, or spa in Alachua County containing water deeper than 24 inches requires a building permit from the city or county. We handle the application and inspections.

What setback rules apply to pools in Alachua?

Pools must be set back specific distances from property lines, other structures, and utilities. Setbacks vary by zone. We review your lot, determine exact distances, and site the pool accordingly.

Do I need a fence around my pool?

Yes. Florida Building Code requires a 4-foot barrier fence with a self-closing, self-latching gate. Alternatively, you can use door alarms if the house wall serves as part of the barrier. We install to code.

Can I convert my pool to saltwater?

Yes. Saltwater conversion involves replacing the filter system and adding a chlorine generator. We handle the equipment swap, testing, and startup so your water stays balanced.

What if my pool has cracks or leaks?

We diagnose the leak, determine if repair is possible, and recommend restoration or replacement. Many older Alachua pools benefit from a full remodel rather than repeated repairs.

How often should I update pool equipment?

Pumps and filters typically last 10–15 years. If yours is over a decade old, noisy, or losing power, upgrade to a modern, energy-efficient model. New equipment often cuts energy bills by 30–40%.
