FLA Pools Inc.

FLA Pools Inc runs pool service work out of Brandon. Patrick and Robert handle ownership while crews take on new pool builds, fiberglass remodels, resurfacing with ECO finish, deck repairs, heat pump installs and pre-purchase inspections. Sales staff like Claire and Jason walk customers through options in the showroom and on site. Project managers such as Kris, Chris and Pat track each phase from dig to final fill.

Homeowners describe full builds that finish in three to six months even when supply delays hit, fiberglass updates that cost half the price of a full concrete swap, and quick resurfacing jobs that wrap in under three weeks. Pat has measured older pools and left with a cost figure the same day. Crews have fixed crumbling spa concrete, swapped waterline tile, added travertine surrounds and installed new DE filters. Names that come up often include Adrian, Anthony, Robert and Fernando for the hands-on work that leaves the site clean.

They answer estimate calls inside twenty-four hours and set site visits within a few days. Project managers stay reachable by phone and text, send updates before each new step and show up when promised. Prices sit in line with other bids in the area yet customers say the crews feel more reliable. Work happens on both new construction and older pools, with some jobs completed on Sundays or under tight weather windows.

The outfit carries a Google rating of 4 from 101 reviews. Reviewers keep noting clear communication, crews that arrive on schedule and finishes that look solid once complete. One customer flagged substandard deck tiles and peeling coating after the fact. DIRT Score 3.6 from reviews on Finds.

“From start to finish FLA Pools delivered on everything perfectly. The company exceeded our expectations to be honest. Choosing a pool company is certainly a hard task, but starting with our Sales Rep, Claire, FLA Pools quickly became our top choice. Claire was helpful, responsive, but not pushy. She checked in and gave us time to think about what we wanted. We appreciated that FLA pools was not aggressive with their sales. Kris was our project manager and he was awesome. He communicated clearly and when he said something was going to be worked on...it was. He was happy to answer any and all questions we had. We were told the pool would be finished in 4-6 months from our dig date, which was April 25. The pool was finished ahead of schedule on August 7. This includes 2 weeks FLA pools was waiting on us to finish the fence around the pool for the safety inspection. Our pool was filled with well-water, which left stains in the pool, FLA pools made sure our pool was left sparkling and gorgeous... The only thing that could have been *Better* was the pool school. As, it was quick and overwhelming and we forgot most of it.”

“FLA pools did a good job on my pool. Tonya, Don, Ron and Adrain were great. Very easy to work with. The showroom made it easy to pick tiles and colors. I was lucky and got the job done before the scheduled length of time they said it would take. The guys cleaned up after the job pretty good. It wasn't cheap but after a few quotes from different companies, they were all around the same but I felt the most comfortable with FLA Pools.”

“Great experience from beginning to end. Jason, Patrick and their team were professional and they gave us peace of mind how well they constructed the pool. It only took them about 3 months from the start date to finish, they were coming in about every other day, so they were carefully working together and paying attention to detail. The pool came out beautiful, everyday when I wake up and see the pool I’m beyond grateful. Thank you again FLA Pools, I recommend this company to anyone that is serious about getting a well constructed pool.”

“Anthony, Robert, Pat and the entire FLA Pools crew transformed our 60+ year old Gold Key fiberglass pool into an updated, safe and durable pool for our family to enjoy. This is an experienced, honest and professional group of individuals who do what they say they are going to do when they say they are going to do it. Everyone should do their homework and ask questions but I am willing to recommend this group to anyone who needs work done on their pool. I am sold on FLA Pool's services and I will not use any other contractor for my pool. Great job guys!”

“We had a great experience from start to finish. Even with supply chain issues, they were able to complete our pool in 6 months as promised. During the entire job, Chris the project manager would keep us informed about upcoming phases of the job.”

“Called to request an estimate for resurfacing of my older pool. Pat came to the house, looked around the pool, did the measurements and had a ruff estimate of cost before leaving. 1 week later, I have a beautiful resurfaced pool with new tiles and handrail AND new DE Filter. Exceptional cost!! Excellent customer service, professional staff. I could not have asked for better service. Highly recommend!”

“Our 25 year old pool needed some updating. FLA Pools removed glass block on spa and formed & poured new concrete. Additionally, our spa concrete was incorrectly built and crumbling, and Pat advised us of a more permanent solution. New waterline tile, ECO finish, travertine spa surround, and granite spillover. Excellent work and attention to detail.”

“The WORST pool company ever. They did a shoddy job, put down sub standard deck tiles & that Eco coating is horrible, they had to come back & redo, now it's peeling off. They are no longer in business, but they have opened a new pool company under a different name. No worries though, because Karma will get you in the end”

“We have a fiberglass pool that I didn’t know much about. I was about ready to have it replaced with a concrete pool. Robert came out shortly after I called him and looked at the pool and explained what his company could do to update it and explained the benefits of a fiberglass pool. The cost was about half to remodel what it would have cost to replace. We agreed to have it remodeled, the project was scheduled within 2 weeks and was handled very promptly and professionally. The team that worked on the remodel along with the project manager, Adrian, did exactly what they said they were going to do and showed up exactly when they said they would. Additionally, my messages were always answered quickly. The entire project was completed in 3 weeks. I highly recommend FLA Pools. I truly appreciate Robert, Adrian and their entire team for the job they did.”

“We needed to get a pool inspection done before purchasing a pool home. Pat came out to inspect the pool for us on a Sunday. I couldn’t have asked for a more knowledgeable person to set our minds at ease of what was causing the pool to loose water. This is our first pool home and Pat covered so much information on how to maintain our pool and simple things to make our first pool a great experience. Pat also gave us information on future things that would be needed to keep our pool in order. So I am sure when that time comes we will definitely be contacting FLA Pools again to do some work on it for us. If you are looking for a pool company to take care of all your pool needs this is the place to go to get work done and done right. I also want to say a huge Thank You for taking time out on your Sunday to do a pool inspection and set our minds at ease. You will be hearing from us again for those much bigger projects.”

“The whole experience from start to finish was top notch! From the time I walked in, the sales person Jason made the process so easy. His prior knowledge on the reconstruction/remodel side made me feel at ease when making decisions regarding my design for this new build. Kris was my construction manager and always kept me informed on what was to come next. Any questions I had, he answered the phone or promptly returned my call. Not only was the professionalism, communication, comfort, and ease of using this company what made the experience more than I could imagine….. my pool was completed in record timing! We broke ground end of October/November and completed March. (Would have been sooner had I had my act together and installed my privacy fence sooner) I would recommend this company over and over for all your construction needs!”

“Great company and I am very happy with the results. I had my pool resurfaced. They returned my call for a quote within 24 hours and we set up a meeting at my home within a few days. I signed a contract on 3/4/19 and the finishers completed the resurface on 3/19/19. I was very pleased with the timeline. They were always on time and every person I came in contact with was professional and respectful. I enjoyed working with Patrick (an owner), Anthony, (sales rep), and the rest of the construction, finishing, and maintenance crews: Alex, Kenny, Adrian, Tyler, Carl, Fernando (Finishing crew chief), and Darrin to name a few. The results exceeded my expectations. Thank you FLA Pools for a job well done.”

“FLA pools installed Eco System on my fiberglass pool and did a fabulous job. Not only that, but it seemed my pool was leaking about a year later and I reached out to them and within 2 days their crew was here to assist! The crew was very prompt, professional and courteous. The company is highly recommended.”

“I just had my pool redone using the ECO Finish and I must say it is awesome. The promises made by Fla Pools were all met with accuracy and perfection. The time to complete the project was completed even under adverse weather conditions at times. The crews that completed the work was professional and functioned extremely well as a team. Patrick and his team did a fantastic job applying the ECO finish and made sure the work was done to perfection. I would highly recommend ECO finish and any work done by Fla. Pools. My sincere appreciation for a job well done by a company the supports and respects all Veterans! Thanks Terry Rountree”

“We have had a fantastic experience with FLA Pools during our pool construction in Seminole Heights community of Tampa, FL. Once we were out of permitting our pool started coming together quickly. They have done all the extra steps to prepare our pool to last like adding a deadline and rock after the hole was dug to reduce ground water under the pool. Robert, one of the owners, educated us on how someone should safely drain a pool in the future with the deadline. Our pool was dug and inspected the end of last week. It is Monday and concrete is going on. They stuck with their commitment to not leave the hole without concrete for a long period of time. We continue to be pleasantly surprised with their professional presence, response time, and extra education. Getting a commercial grade pool for our personal use at a reasonable and competitive price is worth it with this company!”

“I wanted to write this review to let people know how PLEASED we are with our pool that was completed in January 2021. We signed our contract in July 2020, 4 months after the Pandemic pretty much closed down the country. Getting the permits were the longest part. Once FLA Pools started digging September 29, 2020 and I learned the best way to communicate with my team it was a breeze. Kris was amazing at keeping me posted and I did my part by letting him know when things were completed by inspectors, sub contractor, etc. so that they were aware they could schedule the next step. I feel by working together with the company and the crews it made for an easy project. Our pool was filled January 11, 2021. So in all it took just under 4 months dig to fill including multiple holidays. All this being said I would definitely recommend and use FLA Pools again! Thank you so much for our beautiful new pool!”

“Pat and his team were able to get me a competitive quote for a new heat pump installation in no shorter than 24hrs of making a site visit. Pat is a really nice guy and made himself Available to answer any questions I had along the way. He was very professional and helpful. Pat had my new heater installed within days of me accepting the quote.”

“Rob and the crew did a great job on our last pool. They installed new pool, new deck and screen lanai. The project could not have been planned and executed better! We sold that house and are getting quotes in our new home for refinishing the pool, resurface pool deck and possibly redoing the lanai. We are going to use Florida pools again! Nothing says great job more than a repeat customer. Thanks Rob and everyone at Florida Pools. Can’t wait to see the crew again.”

“From start to finish the crew was very professional. The Ecofinish product looks fantastic on my 31 year old fiberglass pool. I would recommend FLA Pools to anyone looking for a new pool or remodeling. The sales people were great as well as Pat and Chris. Thank you for such outstanding work.”

“We were so pleased with the Professional job that Fla Pools, Inc. did recently. They were very attentive to our needs, our price budget, and our desires as far as look , costs, etc. We were very pleasantly surprised by an early start time on the resurfacing of our 30 year old pool and the speed with which they worked and how fast the major work was completed......If something was not to our liking or we had questions, the contractor was always ready to help and get to our satisfaction. He was wonderful to work with and we would definitely recommend them in the future.”
