Pools & More publishes real pricing online — a rare practice in this market. Our published packages range from $53,000 to $70,000+, depending on pool size, deck material (concrete or paver), water features, and added options like spas or sun shelves. See our full pricing breakdown on the Pricing page for exact tier details.

Gunite (concrete shotcrete) pools are built on-site and can be customized to any shape, size, or depth — this is what Pools & More builds. Fiberglass pools are pre-molded off-site and installed in one piece, which is faster but limits shape and size options. Gunite typically costs more upfront but offers far more design flexibility, which is why most custom builds in Florida use it.

Yes. Pool construction in Florida requires local permits covering structural, electrical, and safety-barrier requirements. Pools & More handles all permit approvals as the first phase of our 9-step build process, so you don't have to navigate that process yourself.

We partner with Lyons Financial and LightStream to offer financing options, so a $53,000+ project doesn't have to be paid as a single lump sum. Ask us during your consultation for current rates and terms.

Construction involves heavy equipment access to your backyard during excavation, several days of concrete curing time after the shotcrete shell is applied, and standard noise/activity during active build phases. We walk you through what to expect at each of our 9 build phases before work begins.

After your final walkthrough, we provide hands-on training covering water chemistry balancing, equipment operation (pumps, filters, and saltwater systems if installed), and a basic maintenance schedule, as part of our final build phase.

Each tier includes the pool shell, a concrete or paver deck, permitting, an electrical allowance, and LED lighting — with higher tiers adding features like sun shelves, bubblers, water feature walls, or a built-in spa. Full line-item details are on our Pricing page.

Yes — our staff creates a 3D computer model of your finished pool so you can see exactly how it will look before a single shovel goes into the ground. This is one of the most useful (and most underused) parts of working with us.

BuildZoom independently evaluates contractors based on licensing, permit history, and project track record. Pools & More was named one of the Top 5 Swimming Pool Contractors in Gainesville, FL by BuildZoom.

Yes. Because we build gunite (poured concrete) pools rather than pre-fabricated fiberglass shells, your pool can be customized to virtually any size, shape, or depth your yard allows.

A saltwater system uses a salt-to-chlorine generator to sanitize the water, producing a gentler swimming experience than traditional chlorine dosing. It's included in several of our published pricing packages — check the Pricing page for which tiers include it.

Yes — water feature walls, bubblers, and built-in spas with spill-over and gas heaters are available, and shown as options directly on our pricing tiers.

We excavate your backyard with professional equipment, assess soil conditions, and make any grading adjustments needed to create a stable foundation — this is Phase 2 of our 9-step process, right after permitting.

Both are available, and the choice affects look, cost, and feel underfoot. Our published pricing packages show example decks in both concrete and paver finishes so you can compare directly.

Request a free design consultation through our website — we'll start with a conversation about your goals and budget, then move toward a 3D design of your pool before any construction commitment.
