Many Lighthouse Point properties back onto a canal or the Intracoastal, and on those lots we design the pool to work with the seawall and dock rather than around them.


Custom Pool Construction in Lighthouse Point
On Lighthouse Point’s deepwater canals, many backyards have a boat at the dock, and the pool needs to hold its own next to that view. We build geometric and freeform pools with sun shelves, integrated spas, and infinity or vanishing edges that play off the water beyond them, finished in natural stone, porcelain, or travertine and engineered for the salt air that comes with living on a canal.
Pool Remodeling & Renovation for Lighthouse Point Homes
A lot of Lighthouse Point’s canal-front homes have pools that predate the current wave of waterfront renovations — solid bones, dated finish. We rebuild them properly: new coping and decking in natural stone or porcelain, a sun shelf or spa where the original design didn’t include one, saltwater conversion, LED and fiber-optic lighting, and a Pebble Tec or Diamond Brite resurface that matches a rebuilt seawall or dock.
Natural Stone Decking & Outdoor Living
On a canal lot, the deck does as much work as the pool — it’s where the boat gets rinsed off and where everyone ends up after a day on the water. We install travertine, porcelain, paver, and natural stone decking, plus outdoor kitchens, cabanas, and covered living spaces built to handle both entertaining and salt water. For a closer look at the materials we use, see our guide to natural stone pool decking in Lighthouse Point.
Do I need a permit to build or remodel a pool in Lighthouse Point?
In most cases, yes. New pool construction generally requires a building permit, and remodels usually do too once structural, electrical, or plumbing work is involved; 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. On a Lighthouse Point canal lot there is an added layer: work near a seawall or inside the waterway setback can trigger additional review, so we confirm those constraints before drawings are submitted rather than discovering them mid-permit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Canal-front construction can take longer than a standard lot because of seawall and dock coordination. New construction typically takes a few months and remodels often take a few weeks, but the schedule depends on scope, site conditions and permit review.
Yes. Seawalls, docks and waterway setbacks can affect pool size and placement, so we design around them and the existing outdoor living space rather than treating them as separate projects.
Yes. We can coordinate finish materials and lighting so a remodeled pool matches other recent waterfront updates on the property.
