- One of the most common question I get from buyers is "What does it cost to build a pool in Florida?" The answer is always "It depends". There are so many factors that go into building a pool that it is difficult to say. So we thought the best thing we could do is show you what EVERYTHING cost in building our pool in Winter Garden / Horizon West, Florida. We'll take you through construction costs, design options and all of the things we didn't remember that ended up costing a LOT of money!
Our pool was built by Pools By Bradley, but I don't represent them. We simply documented what we spent and are letting you know in sometimes painful detail what the price tag was for everything. YOUR pool costs will be different because you'll have different choices, different dates, different supply issues... everything will be different. But we hope this will give you a place to start!

i appreciate the behind the scenes commentary on a pool installation . so rare for people to give honest information.
So glad you liked it!
This video is so good and detailed! Better than the videos I’ve seen from pool construction companies. Awesome job guys, enjoy the new pool - it’s beautiful.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for your transparency with the cost of your pool and all of the items to take into consideration. I have been planning on putting in a pool, and to hear this it helps in keeping things within a budget. You two are amazing, and love watching your videos. Keep up the great work.
what a lovely comment! Thank you so much!
Woo, pools have gotten expensive! We spent $54k on ours in GA with a pool and spa. I’m sure it’s probably doubled by now. We had unexpected expenses like adding a gas line from our meter which was about $1500 and we had to get a bigger gas meter from the gas company for the heater. My tip to everyone is make sure you register your pool equipment for the warranty, within our first year our pool pump died and was replaced for free!
That is a great tip!!!
Have you check houses price out there from 2020 and now? No surprises about pool prices.
So true!
Who did you hire to do the pool?Can you plz share the info?
Who did you use?
Best, most transparent video ever! Thank you for being forthcoming. You likely sold more pools than any other pool builder that hesitates to give this level of detail.
Wow, thank you! That is very kind of you to say. We didn't have ANY idea what things would cost so it seemed like other people would like to know! :)
I agree with this whole heartedly. I happen to have a very similar pool like this already in our back yard. I am
Going to build myself another pool for my kids to play basketball in and for me to have a spa for my health. Plus I was a Sun ledge are where it is flat and just deep enough to do stretches and such. I want that connected to the spa to heat up. This is going to be something to take care of myself. I also intended to have. Starting budget if $100K. I knew I would likely go over that. Your video helped a ton.
My wife and I love your videos. We appreciate your candor. Sharing the cost of your outdoor oasis is an example of your commitment to sharing valuable information with us viewers. Thanks for demonstrating love, respect, and care for all. Enjoy
Our pleasure! That is so kind of you to say!
Thank you for your honesty and being candid and detailed! Also the videography and how y’all talk and articulate details is great!
That custom made concrete waterfall is so gorgeous. Hope y’all get many decades of enjoyment from this…
Thank you so much!! What a lovely comment!
Totally appreciate your honesty. I need that to keep me grounded about the money I'm going to spend on our pool area. THANKS FOR SHARING!
I appreciate this video so much! I've been trying to find content relating to pool build in Florida and this was it. I've been calling pool companies around the Orlando area and you never know what to expect. I appreciate your insight and transparency!
Glad it was helpful! That's why we did it!!!
Thank you for sharing all of this! It’s refreshing to see people share costs and realities of their build experiences. Hope you enjoy all the work you’ve done, it looks absolutely stunning, bravo!!
Thank you so much!!!
I want to thank you both for your information and transparency. I wish everyone would be so open and clear with information that can help others.
You are very welcome!
Thank you for a great video with so much information. I had no idea all that went into building a pool. My neighbors here in Los Angeles did a prefabricated one, so a big hole was dug, and a crane came into our cul de sac and popped it in. It was quite a production. Your pool looks fabulous and I'm sure you'll get many years of enjoyment out of it. Worth every penny.
Thank you so much! and thanks for watching!
Thanks for sharing all the costs . A real , authentic “eye” opener ! You will enjoy it for years ❤
Thanks so much!
Just what I was looking for. Outstanding review. Honesty with the process and adding the cost so one cN have an idea was great. Thank you
Great video and thank you for breaking down the cost the way you all did. This is by far the best video of what it cost to build a pool.
So glad you liked it!
Awesome video…Our pool was completed April of last year. Our initial fantasy budget was $100,000….Final cost:$150,000. Despite that additional cost…We love our outside oasis. Worth every penny. Your pool and everything that you have done to your yard is absolutely amazing.🎉❤
Your budget experience sounds so close to ours! Thank you for the kind comments and I'm so happy you love your pool!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!! Your transparency is important. It's very hard to get good numbers. Don't feel bad about the amount you spent, it is so very hard to keep costs down these days. You are doing a service for everyone.
That makes us feel good! That was the whole idea... to help people have a frame of reference.
Excellent video. This video was extremely helpful and smooth. Nicely done, so glad you did it so thank you.
This is gorgeous and well deserved! Enjoy!❤
Thank you so much!!
Amazing video guys. This is sooo helpful to someone like me who is considering building a pool in South Florida. Much appreciated!
Our pleasure!
Thank you so much for sharing! My husband and I love all your videos. When it’s time to get our new home we will try our best to find one with a pool. I had no idea just how much time money and patience going into building a pool of your own. Hope everyone have a blessed day:-)
It SURE did take patience!!! Almost a year from contract to swimming. (And we aren't really swimming yet because it is COOOOLLLLD and we can't use the heater yet!
Such an amazing pool area that you will enjoy for years to come! You work hard (and smart) and now you can relax well ❤🏡🏊♀ Enjoy!! Thanks for sharing! Love your transparency!

Thank YOU for this Amazing Video!! I LOVE how you did not leave out anything and be transparent !! This helps SO much!

This really made our day! I'm so glad the video was helpful. It's pool season! I hope you enjoy your beautiful new pool!
how much does the contractor owner pocket after all expenses paid?
@@u235u235u235 Pool company mark up is around 40 percent. Plus they will always upsale (sorry I mean recommend) more.
Gazebo from
Costco. Wow. Interesting idea. I should look into that.
Lovely pool! Your animated description was very helpful , thank you.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for watching and commenting!

You're so welcome!
very informational and great pacing and editing, thank you for putting this together
Glad it was helpful!
Interesting video, my parents have a nice large backyard and never wanted a pool saying the cost and hassle was just too much. I understand now what they meant as $175k pool is about double my house which I bought in 2005. I live in a small house with a verry tiny yard and there is a nice community pool so I have never thought about it personally. Recently, visiting a friend who has a home near Cocoa Beach on a canal close to the ocean put in a partially above ground pool, very nice, added concrete decking around it with nice landscaping. I asked why not an in-ground pool and he said that would have been $70,000+ and I thought he was exaggerating, but now I see he was not. They actually dug down, so a third of the pool is underground and two-thirds above ground. Their pool, concrete decking, landscaping, pumps, extras was all done for about $23,000 and looks great, so you don't have to spend a small fortune to get something you are happy with and enjoy.
This is good to know as I search for my next home in 2026. A pool isn't a deal breaker for me but if I see a home that already has a freeform pool at a good price, I now understand the value of having that.
lovely and congratulations! Happy Holidays!
Thank you! You too!
I appreciate the financial transparency! Super helpful and you guys have an amazing looking pool/backyard
So glad it was helpful!
This was a really great video and quite informative. Enjoy that awesome pool.
Thank you! Will do!
Awesome video!! Enjoy the Beautiful pool and pool area!! 💃🥰
Thank you 🤗
Thank you for this video. I’ve always dreamed of my own inground pool. This video helps to know what it would take to just dream of a budget.
So glad it was helpful!!!
Great video!! I am in the process of getting pool construction quotes and believe me guys this video explains a lot of my questions. Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
What a gorgeous backyard. Money well spent, given you can afford it. (How many people overspend and lose it?) Why be ashamed? It's your home and your life. Your videos are not just entertainment, but do a great service for viewers, whether looking to buy, upgrade or remodel. Isn't this a big part of that? This video is real life, not made up numbers or reality show. Much thanks for sharing this, I, for one, very much appreciate and love it.
Thank you so much! That is very kind of you to say!
Beautiful pool, everything turned out great. I love the palm trees - they really gives it that Florida vibe. Thanks for sharing (very informative). Cheers-
Thanks so much 😊
Great pool and thanks for sharing your experience of building the pool!
Thanks for watching and commenting!

Glad it was helpful!

You are very welcome.
Loved this video. You both provided very clear and informative information. You both made me laugh.
Thanks so much!
Awesome vid and pool! A backyard Oasis just makes your home that much bigger and can generate family and friends your way. Definitely a great way to get everyone together
For sure!!
I’m so thankful my son inlaw has a pool and excavation company , your pool is beautiful enjoy , living here in central Florida is great to enjoy the sunshine

You are very welcome!
I always look forward to your real estate updates. Your videos help me make informed decisions as an investor. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! 📈
Thanks so much for such a lovely comment! Glad the videos are helpful!
Hi is Lori over here in PA love watching your videos I love that house it's so beautiful
thank you for sharing. This video was so helpful! It is beautiful.
Thank you so much!
What a price difference. In 2016 we had a 22,000 gallon pool build at our home in Georgia, with large spa and sun shelf in pool. Our pool is fully automated, dual heaters, auto fill and drain, led lighting, huge paver decking, pebble tec pool finish, fully landscaped surround, etc.. total cost was $114k. Feel like I got a great deal now.
I agree! Prices have definitely gone WAY up! Our tiny pool at our previous home was $26,000! Bare bones and pretty small... but these days it would cost at least $60,000!
Absolutely beautiful! ENJOY!!!
Thanks so much!
Thank you for sharing.
Very beautiful.
Thank you for sharing the numbers . ....looking to buy a home and build my backyard oasis in a few years so it helps to have an idea of all the costs involved.
This video is greatly appreciated!!! Thank you
Glad it was helpful!
I appreciate your video very much. I am about to build a pool and this was so helpful. Thank you for sharing.
Glad it was helpful!
This was a very insightful video and the price was right in line with my estimates as well! The pool is beautiful by the way!!!
Glad it was helpful! And thank you for the kind words!
Great video! Thank you for being transparent, love the pool! We are looking at houses at WaterLeigh on Friday. Between Laureate, Oakland Park, and Horizon West-Waterleigh it’s going be be a hard choice. Really feeling the North Haven floor plan.
🙋 You know... I'm here to help! I have a GREAT history in getting the inside scoop at Waterleigh. Call or text me if you'd like me to help you find the perfect home! 407-848-8042 LOOOOOVE the North Haven... but they don't currently have any available under construction. When they DO have some, they will likely be at "highest and best offer" stage... so you definitely want a good strategy!
Incredibly helpful video. Well thought out and greatly appreciated! I'm in Ocoee and we are looking at pool options as well.
Glad we could help! Our Pool Company was Pools By Bradley… Jake was our designer and designed just what we wanted!!!
Thank you for sharing. I just spent $134K on a Fiberglass Pool and Spa. I did add extras like bubblers, led lights, a cascade waterfall with waterbowls. I thought it may have been too much but after watching your video, it seems about right. Again, Thanks for your transparency! Great Video!😊
Thanks for sharing! Yes, it sounds like you paid about what things cost these days!
Looks amazing thanks for the video!!!
Thanks!!!
Thanks for sharing all the detailed info and costs. I will soon have a large backyard that needs to be completely landscaped. We will be having a pool and spa put in as well as other elements.
It is absolutely our plan to have a video specifically about the landscaping costs coming soon. It has just been a challenge to find time to get it recorded!
Thank you so much! This helps me so much!!!
That is super nice, great job!!!
Thank you!
I greatly appreciate your transparency
Thanks! That's what we are here for!
Wow! I can see why you had some reservations making this video. You can't take that money with you when you pass away, so enjoy the fruits of your hard work and labor while you can. That is an amazing home and pool you have there in one of the most desirable areas to live in Orlando. I am so proud of you both for all the hard work and deciding to do something for yourselves that you are enjoying most of the year. I consider that a great view by the way. Well done Amy and Eric, loved the total breakdown at the end, as well as the transparancy of the unexpected costs. So glad you got the pool of your dreams. Looking forward to meeting you in a few months. Happy Holidays!💌
WOW! What a lovely comment. Thank you so much! See you soon!
This was the conclusion my wife and I came up with when deciding on a pool. Enjoy life while you can, and you can’t take any of the money with you when you leave. It’s an enormous amount of money we are spending, but this is something we’ve been deliberating for years about. Now we are about 6 months away from having a lovely 18x38 concrete pool in our backyard to create lots of family memories. Kudos to you all on designing such a fabulous pool!
The best perfect informative video divided into 5 segments 🤔
Glad it was helpful!
Gorgeous pool, and yes Everything costs soooo much more in California. Just equipment itself is costing us 22k and its only a 14000 gallon pool with water features and spa . This pool in California right now is about 250k with all the landscaping. So much more expenses we didn't anticipate. So this video is awesome for people looking to build. Its sooo exciting the whole process though. I love it so far. But its pretty pricey for the excitement
One really important thing that is not in the video because we didn't know it yet. We LOOOOVE the pool area so much! We haven't thought about the cost once since we were able to start using it! :)
I don’t need a pool but this was a very informative, entertaining and well put together video
Thanks so much!
Thank you for your honesty !
Of course!!
This was incredibly useful! We're installing a 20x40 rectangular pool (plus spa) here in Texas and received a quote of $133K, all-inclusive. It doesn't cover the stunning rock waterfall, but aside from that, and not considering the damages you had to address, our pool design is somewhat simpler. I believe our figures are quite comparable. This video has given me the confidence to proceed. Thanks Amy!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks so much!
Stunning pool. You did it just the way I would given the space available.
Thank you!
Congratulations 🎉Beautiful pool May God keep blessing you and your family. This is your hard work, thank you for sharing. ❤
Thank you so much!
great video! well done!
This was amazing and very well detailed.
Can you do more videos, giving us updates such as the cost to maintain it, electricity costs, etc
we are absolutely planning on it! Coming soon, we promise!
Gorgeous pool! Well done.
Thank you! 😊
Beautiful pool and landscape! Compared to prices here in New York I'm actually impressed. Cost of pavers and coping are much more expensive here. Maybe I need to move to Florida!
Maybe you should!!!!
Very informative thank you all for sharing it is absolutely beautiful
Our pleasure!
I’m moving to area in 2 years and this is great information.
Glad it was helpful, future neighbor!
Looks amazing and is very informative
Thank you!
I am kind of mind blown at the cost nowadays! Had my free form 24000 gallon pool built with a 2800 sqft travertine deck for 84k from Artesian pool in Winter Garden. This was 2017 so different times.
Yes! It has (like everything) gotten pretty crazy. Our very small freeform pool in 2014 was $24,000 including a screen!
Yea in 2019 I had a 18 x 36 grecian with the top step a 8 ft sun shelf *making total pool 42 ft long, Pavers all around and a cage twice the size a the pool. Total 55K yes I had a heater lights bubblers and streamers. In Punta Gorda. Tropical Pools Great Guy
