A pool is built once. Build it right..
A custom pool is one of the largest investments you'll make in your home — and the builder you choose decides whether it feels organized or chaotic, whether the timeline holds, and whether the finished pool looks like what you signed up for. Experience, transparency, and a real, repeatable process are what separate the builders who deliver from the ones who create headaches.
LIV Pools designs and builds custom gunite pools and spas across Tampa Bay. Every project is engineered from scratch around your property, your lifestyle, and your budget — never pulled from a catalog. You work with the same team from the first consultation through the final walkthrough, and as an Authorized Hayward Dealer, every pool is finished with premium Hayward equipment and OmniLogic automation you control from your phone.
Built on-site. Not pulled from a catalog..
When you research pool builders in Tampa, you'll run into three options — concrete, fiberglass, and vinyl. They are not the same product, and the difference shows up the day you want something the catalog can't make.
LIV builds exclusively in custom gunite. If you want the cheapest possible pool, we're not the right fit. If you want a pool designed for your exact property and built to outlive your mortgage, gunite is the only material that gets you there.
Any shape your yard — and your imagination — can hold.
Transparent pricing, itemized from day one.
Every custom pool is priced to your exact yard, features, and finishes — so there’s no one-size number. Here’s what shapes the investment, every line itemized in your free design consultation:
Square footage and depth drive material volume directly.
Freeform curves, vanishing edges, and multiple depth zones add to a simple rectangle.
Sun shelves, integrated spas, beach entries, raised walls, water and fire elements.
White plaster is the base; colored plaster, PebbleTec, and glass tile step up.
Variable-speed pumps, salt, heat, ColorLogic lighting, and OmniLogic control.
Travertine, pavers, outdoor kitchens, and turf scale the surrounding scope.
No ballpark numbers, no surprise line items, no high-pressure tactics. You see exactly where the money goes before anything is signed.
We handle the bureaucracy. You don't touch it.
Every residential pool in Florida requires building permits and inspections at each phase — it protects your home’s structure, safety, insurability, and resale value. LIV submits engineered plans to your local building department, coordinates every inspection, and makes sure the build meets Florida code.
HOA architectural review is a separate layer, and it’s common across Tampa Bay master-planned communities. We provide the renderings and site plans your HOA needs and run that submission in parallel with county permitting wherever the timelines allow.
Building better backyards across Tampa Bay.
LIV designs and builds custom pools and spas throughout the Tampa Bay region. Local conditions matter here — coastal salt air, sandy-to-clay soils, and high water tables all shape how a pool is engineered. Two decades of Florida builds tell us what works on your street.
