Pool Services in St. Petersburg, FL
Pool Remodeling & Resurfacing in St. Petersburg, FL
St. Pete is a boating and canal city, so a big share of the pools we work on sit on canal-front and bay-front lots with docks, seawalls, and flood-zone rules to work around. We resurface, remodel, build, and repair pools from the historic bungalow blocks of the Old Northeast to the waterfront homes on Snell Isle and Shore Acres. Licensed, insured, and rated 5.0 stars.
What makes St. Petersburg pools different
St. Pete has two things you do not see as much elsewhere in Pinellas: a deep stock of 1920s craftsman and Mediterranean Revival homes, and mile after mile of canal-front and bay-front housing. In neighborhoods like the Old Northeast and Historic Kenwood, the pools sit behind older homes on tight lots and need careful, code-aware updates. In Shore Acres, Snell Isle, and Coquina Key, the pools are on the water in flood zones, so salt air, seawalls, and flood elevation all factor into how we resurface and what equipment we install. We plan the finish and the equipment around which of those two St. Petes your pool is in.

Do you need a permit to remodel a pool in St. Petersburg?
St. Petersburg runs its own permitting office, so pool permits here go through City of St. Petersburg Construction Services and Permitting, not Pinellas County. A straight interior resurfacing job usually does not require a building permit. Once the work touches the pool structure, the deck, a screen enclosure, or equipment that connects to gas, electrical bonding, or plumbing, a permit is required. On the waterfront it matters more than usual, because canal- and bay-front lots in Shore Acres, Snell Isle, and Coquina Key fall in special flood hazard areas with their own elevation and review rules. We handle the permitting and inspections on jobs that need them, flood-zone paperwork included. If you are not sure which category your project falls into, we will tell you straight during the estimate.

St. Petersburg pool FAQ
Do I need a permit to resurface my pool in St. Petersburg?
A resurfacing-only job usually does not need a permit, but equipment, structural, deck, or screen enclosure work does, and waterfront lots may trigger extra flood-zone review. St. Petersburg permits through its own Construction Services office, and we handle it.

Plaster runs about $5,000 to $8,000, quartz $7,000 to $12,000, and pebble $9,000 to $18,000 for an average pool. We give a firm quote after a free on-site visit.
