Building a pool in Florida means working with local permit rules and Florida weather. Here is what to expect.
Permits and inspections
Tampa Bay municipalities require permits, engineering approvals and inspections before construction begins. At PCS Pools we prepare the construction plans and file for your permit as step 2 of our build process, and we handle the permitting process for you.
Every city is a little different
Requirements and review times vary by city and county across Pinellas, Hillsborough, Pasco and Manatee. That is the main reason project start dates vary.
Building around the weather
Florida's climate allows year-round construction, although summer storms can slow progress. Rain can pause digging, shell work and deck installation, and we adjust the schedule and keep you updated.
Storm season tips for pool owners
- Secure or store loose patio furniture and decor before a storm.
- Follow the guidance of your local emergency management office.
- After a storm, clear debris and check your equipment before running it.
- Ask us if you have questions about your equipment or enclosure.
