Frequently Asked Questions
What type of pools do you build?
Lake City Pools builds shotcrete in-ground pools. We focus on concrete pool construction for homeowners who want a durable, customizable pool built for their property, goals, and long-term use.
Can I build a smaller in-ground pool?
Yes. Not every homeowner wants the biggest pool possible. We can discuss right-sized pool layouts that better fit your backyard, priorities, and budget.
How much do pools cost?
Many new pool projects start in the low $100,000s, but total cost depends on the pool size, site access, decking, finishes, equipment, and site conditions.
What affects pool cost the most?
The biggest variables are usually:
pool size
site access
decking and hardscape
finish selections
equipment package
added features like spas, covers, or water features
soil, slope, retaining needs, or other site challenges
We talk through these factors early so you can make informed decisions and avoid surprises later.
What is included in a pool project?
Depending on the job, a pool project may include planning, layout, excavation, steel, plumbing, electrical, shotcrete shell installation, tile and coping, equipment, interior finish, startup, and related project coordination.
Do you offer financing?
Lake City Pools does not directly offer financing, but we do provide a financing page with common options homeowners often explore. We can also provide a lender-ready proposal to help you evaluate your next steps.
How long does a pool project take?
Timing depends on design, permits, weather, site conditions, and overall project scope. We discuss schedule expectations early so you have a realistic understanding of the process.
Do you handle permits?
We help homeowners understand the permit process and coordinate the project accordingly. Permit requirements can vary by city and county, so part of our job is helping you navigate that process clearly.
What does pool maintenance involve?
Pool ownership includes water care, equipment monitoring, cleaning, and seasonal care. We aim to help homeowners choose practical equipment and understand the basics of operating the pool with confidence.
What safety items should families plan for?
Safety should be part of the planning conversation from the beginning. Depending on the property and family needs, that may include fencing, gates, covers, alarms, and thoughtful layout decisions.
