"The tech did an excellent job thoroughly clean my hot tub, taking great care not to scratch it. He even cleaned the hot tub cover thoroughly, both inside and out. He taught me how to use the chemicals on a regular basis to keep everything in check. I will definitely hire Florida Pool and Spa on an annual basis to clean and heck for maintenance issues!"

I've built 4 houses and three pools and this is by far the best construction experience I have ever had.  Why?  First, dealing with RD Gray is a pleasure.  He was all about understanding what we wanted in a pool--how we planned to use it and how we wanted it to integrate with our house and landscape.  He listened carefully to the description of what we desired and then came back to us promptly with a first-cut design, which was about 90% on the mark.  Closing the 10% gap was a collaboration, which he welcomed--no ego issues.  As we watched the pool take shape during construction, we wanted to make a few minor changes.  These were accommodated without any fuss or change orders. 

Second, we got tremendous value for our money--a very high quality execution of a custom design for a fair price.  RD uses the best Pentair equipment end-to-end and all finishes are top quality.  Now that the pool is complete and in operation we appreciate RD's practice of using oversized equipment, again end-to-end, which means it will be under less stress and last longer.  The equipment plant is beautifully laid out and engineered; looks like a surgeon did it.  Then there are the things you don't see but that really matter.  For example, Island Pools uses 8-12" of compression concrete throughout versus the more usual 6".  This was especially important to us because our pool ranges from 4 to nearly 8 feet in depth, thus more pressure.  I'll just sum it up by saying that every aspect of the construction was first-rate--materials and craftsmanship.

Third, the commercial arrangement was as well done as the rest.  There was no front loading of billings.  In fact, we were always ahead of the work in progress, so we felt comfortable that if anything major had gone wrong we'd be safe.  But nothing ever did go wrong.  Everything went right.

Finally, the disruption to our property and lives was minimal.  His crew were mindful of our landscaping and sprinkler system and did all that they could to minimize damage. 

We can't recommend Island Pools, owner RD Gray and his crew too highly.

"JB does amazing work. He is honestly and reliable. I not only used him once but TWICE. When I first bought my home I just wanted a small cheap Walmart pool. I called JB he was at my home first thing and my pool was completed by lunch on the date that was provided. Well that pool was an exactly that cheap the pump went out after just a few months (nothing to do with JB). I then had a much bigger project to take down and reassemble a 24 ft round dough boy pool. Now this project took a few days breaking the pool down moving to new location level out the dirt ect. J B and his crew were amazing and my new beautiful pool was all ready to go in just a few days. If you need anything pool I wouldnâ  t highly recommend JB!!! I have referred him to friends and family."

"I highly recommend this company and Christopher Lawless as your sales rep. I have 3 different companies come out and give me quotes, tell me how long it would take and the quality/warranty of their equipment. 3D solar was best in every way. Chris gave me the cost and power producing expectations. I wasn't given a pushy sales talk but a realistic one. I even asked about upgrading to more panels and instead of jumping on it, earning more money, he told me I didn't need and he didn't recommend it. I went with his recommendations and have been more than pleased! Installation was extremely quick and the workers were extremely polite. They kept me up to date on their status and cleaned up afterwards. Chris even stopped by to see how it was coming and let me know he was a partner in this purchase. He let me know that the panels were actually higher level from what I believed I was going to be getting. They were able to find the perfect placement of all the equipment. They worked perfectly within code and inspection passed quickly. Even today, Chris still keeps contact with me to verify that everything is working perfectly for me. I love my online details of the power my panels are producing. 3D solar is also monitoring the system and would know if something isn't performing correctly, which I have no needed at all. I haven't had a full winter yet of collecting power to cover summer charges, but I am already saving money! My house is 2000 sq ft with a pool. Normal summer charges were between $300-359 a month. I enjoyed my $75 bill during the summer. Next summer they should be even less. My May bill was only $9!!! I highly recommend going solar! 3D solar is one of the best companies around and they are LOCAL to Tampa! Your sales people live here. The workers live here. They are neighbors who want to do great work, save you money and save the environment. Please give them a call and ask for Chris Lawless! You will NOT be disappointed!"

We offer an overheat protection switch to keep your pumps protected. Our price point is far better than what would cost you to replace your well and centrifugal pumps. Preventive care is always better than reactive care. Aside from distributors and pump manufacturers, we don't have return clientele because our switch works perfectly. 5 minute installation and a product made in USA that is less than $200. Patented product.

FAQs for pool construction and installation projects in Melrose, FL

Most spool or cocktail pools take four to 12 weeks from breaking ground to the first swim, although timing varies depending on size, type, and site conditions. An above-ground, vinyl-lined model can be installed within three or four days once the kit arrives, whereas an in-ground spool adds excavation, plumbing, and inspection steps that extend the timeline. Because delivery alone can take a few weeks, lining up permits and any necessary digging or grading work during that window helps keep the project moving.

Cocktail pools are not intended for traditional swimming; they are built to deliver a cooling and relaxing experience. They provide an ideal setting for a refreshing dip rather than for exercise or lap swimming. The pool’s limited dimensions restrict vigorous activity and ensure safety, making it a perfect retreat for quick cool-downs and leisurely soaks in a compact, stylish design.

Spool pools have a depth of 38 to 42 inches, which is ideal for sitting, standing, and gentle dipping. This deliberate depth prioritizes safety and an inviting atmosphere while eliminating the possibility of diving or extended swimming. The measured design creates a secure and intimate space for relaxation, adding a refined touch to your outdoor area.

If you're handy and have experience with excavation, plumbing, and electrical work, consider installing your spool pool yourself. However, hiring a professional ensures the job is done safely and correctly. Pros have the expertise to handle all the technical details, giving you peace of mind and helping you avoid costly mistakes.

Maintaining a spool pool demands regular cleaning, precise chemical balancing, and thorough system inspections. Homeowners should allocate time monthly for filter cleaning and water quality checks, in addition to performing seasonal maintenance, to ensure optimal system performance. Ongoing maintenance preserves water clarity and operational efficiency, reduces repair costs, and extends the pool’s lifespan, creating a safe and enjoyable environment.

Popular upgrades include a brick-paver patio for slip-resistant footing, low-voltage lighting for evening swims, and code-compliant fencing to boost safety. Additionally, consider adding landscaping or a fire pit to transform the pool area into a year-round hangout. Each feature raises overall costs, but thoughtful add-ons improve usability, curb appeal, and, in many markets, resale value.
