Custom Pool Construction in Boca Raton
Boca Raton’s waterfront and golf-course lots — from the Intracoastal-front estates near Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club to the newer construction west of the turnpike — give us room to build pools that don’t feel bolted onto the house. We design geometric and freeform shapes with sun shelves, integrated spas, infinity edges, and sheer-descent water features, engineered for South Florida’s heat, storms, and humidity, then finished in natural stone, porcelain, or travertine. You’ll see a 3D rendering before a shovel touches your yard, so you’re approving the design, not guessing at it.
Pool Remodeling & Renovation for Boca Raton Homes
Many homes in Boca Raton’s established neighborhoods, including the older sections east of Federal Highway, still have the pool that came with the house decades ago: small, dated tile, no spa. We rebuild these from the waterline up — new coping and decking in natural stone or porcelain, a sun shelf or spa added where the original layout had no room for one, conversion to saltwater, LED and fiber-optic lighting, and resurfacing with a fresh Pebble Tec or Diamond Brite surface. Many Boca Raton remodels can be finished in a matter of weeks, depending on scope and permit review. Curious what a saltwater conversion involves? See our guide to saltwater pool conversion in Boca Raton.
Natural Stone Decking & Outdoor Living
A pool is only as good as what surrounds it, and Boca Raton’s outdoor-living expectations run high. Our hardscape division handles the travertine, porcelain, paver, and natural stone decking, along with the outdoor kitchens, cabanas, and covered living spaces that turn a backyard into the kind of resort-style retreat Boca homeowners expect.
Do I need a permit to build or remodel a pool in Boca Raton?
In most cases, yes. The City of Boca Raton generally requires a building permit for new pool construction and for remodels involving structural, electrical or plumbing work; exact requirements depend on the scope of work. Florida law also requires an approved pool safety feature, such as a barrier, safety cover or approved alarms, before the pool passes final inspection. Many Boca Raton properties also sit inside HOAs or country club communities with their own architectural review, which runs separately from the city permit and on its own timeline. Current requirements are posted by the City of Boca Raton Building Permits and Inspections page.

Frequently Asked Questions
Most remodels take a few weeks; new construction typically runs a few months depending on scope, permitting, and design complexity. You’ll get a project-specific timeline during your free consultation.
Many of Boca’s gated communities have architectural review committees that sign off on pool designs before permitting. Requirements vary by community. We prepare those submissions as part of the design process, so you are not handling the paperwork yourself.
In most cases, yes — resurfacing with Pebble Tec or Diamond Brite is far less invasive than a full rebuild and can dramatically change the look of an older pool. We’ll tell you honestly during your consultation if resurfacing makes sense or if the structure needs more.
