    From first visit to first swim

    The real timeline, with the paperwork separated from the build

    Most builders quote one number and blur the approvals into it. Here is the whole arc, stage by stage.

    1. Site visit

      Day 0

      We walk your yard, check access and utilities, and listen.

    2. 3D design + itemised price

      72 hours

      Yours to keep whether or not you build with us.

    3. Engineering

      3–4 weeks

      PE-stamped structural and hydraulic plans.

    4. Permitting

      4–6 weeks

      Typical. Some cities take longer; we tell you which.

    5. Construction

      ~12 weeks

      Dig to plaster. Progress photos at every stage.

    6. Startup & walkthrough

      Swim day

      Chemicals balanced, equipment explained, warranty pack handed over.

    The part nobody else puts in writing

    Why a pool quote changes — and the only reason ours does

    Our price is based on the structural assumptions available at proposal.

    If the soil report or the engineer’s final plans require heavier rebar, thicker walls or a deeper shell, the contract is revised by written change order, agreed before that work happens — never discovered on an invoice afterwards.

    Also excluded, and we say so before you sign rather than after: demucking and dewatering, pilings, drainage correction, fence or barrier-code upgrades, gas and electrical beyond the stated scope, landscaping and irrigation restoration, and municipal permit fees, which vary by city.

    Warranty

    What is covered, for how long

    Item Coverage
    Pool structure Lifetime, for as long as the original homeowner owns the property
    Interior finish — PebbleTec Lifetime material and labour, original homeowner
    Interior finish — Florida Stucco 10-year material, 3-year labour
    Pool equipment 3-year manufacturer warranty
    Deck settlement 1 year

    Coverage is subject to proper use, maintenance and manufacturer guidelines, and is non-transferable. Full terms are in your contract.

    Epic Watershapes did an amazing job revamping our backyard in Jupiter. Their team was consistently professional and always quick to respond. Collaborating with their designer was a seamless process, and they crafted a custom pool that suits our family perfectly. The quality of their work is outstanding, with meticulous attention to every detail. They took care of everything, from building the pool to adding water features and even handling the landscaping. We’ve been so impressed that we’ve already suggested them to several of our neighbors!

    I can definitely say that Epic Watershapes lives up to the hype! Starting from the initial conversation in regards to what concept I was going for, to the final result. They are extremely attentive, and brought my dream pool to life. I couldn’t think of a better company to reach out for to do my landscaping and pool structure. They sent us updates every step of the way. I would recommend to everyone & anyone with my eyes closed.

    I was really happy with my experience with the Epic Watershapes team! They built a great pool at my second home in Boca Raton. The whole project, from the initial dig to the final completion, took only 6 weeks! Their excellent communication and project management made the process really easy and quick. The final results look great. I’m especially impressed with Sam’s expertise and professionalism. He worked with us to design a pool that perfectly fits our family’s needs. I highly recommend Epic Watershapes!

    Palm Beach & Broward only

    Built for this ground, these cities, this water table

    Permitting

    We pull the permit. Four to six weeks is typical, but each city runs its own review — some contract plan review out and take longer. We tell you your city’s real timeline at the site visit, not after you sign.

    Water table & soil

    Much of Palm Beach and Broward sits on a high water table. Dewatering and demucking are priced only if your site needs them, and you know before the dig — not when the invoice arrives.

    HOA & club review

    Many communities add an architectural review on top of the city permit. We prepare the submission; you approve it.

    Access

    Gate width, side-yard clearance and equipment pad location all move the price a little. They are measured on the first visit so the 72-hour price is the real one.

    Straight answers

    What people ask before they call

    How much does an inground pool cost in Palm Beach County?

    A fixed-price Epic package is $47,250 (12×24), $51,050 (14×24 with sun shelf) or $61,950 (14×24 with a 7×7 spa). Custom gunite pools run in three bands: $55,000–$75,000, $75,000–$110,000, and $110,000 and up. What moves the number: size, depth, interior finish, water features, deck area and site access.

    Can you get an inground pool for $20,000?

    Not a gunite pool built to Florida code with engineered plans, in Palm Beach or Broward. Below roughly $45,000 you are looking at an above-ground pool, a small fiberglass shell with minimal deck, or a quote that is leaving things out. We would rather tell you that here than at the site visit.

    What does a 12×24 or 14×24 pool cost?

    $47,250 for a 12×24 and $51,050 for a 14×24 — those are the Splash Starter and Bliss packages above, with the full specification listed. Larger pools (16×32, 20×40) are custom builds; the 72-hour design visit gives you the exact figure for your yard.

    How long does it take to build a pool in Florida?

    Design and price within 72 hours of the site visit. Engineering 3–4 weeks. Permitting 4–6 weeks, longer in some cities. Construction about 12 weeks from dig to plaster. We separate the paperwork from the build on purpose — it is the only way the number stays honest.

    What is included in the price, and what is not?

    Included: engineered plans, permit, excavation, the 6-inch gunite shell, plumbing, equipment, finish, coping, tile allowance, lighting, electrical hookup to your panel (up to 50 ft), startup and walkthrough. Not included, and stated before you sign: demucking or dewatering, pilings, drainage correction, fence or barrier-code upgrades, gas and electrical beyond scope, landscaping and irrigation restoration, and municipal permit fees.

    How much is the deposit?

    5% at contract signing. Then 20% two days before excavation, 25% when the gunite shell is complete, 25% when the deck is complete, and the final 25% before plaster. Payment by check, ACH or QuickBooks. Financing through Acorn, Lyon Financial and Viking Capital.

    Who pulls the permit?

    We do. Four to six weeks is typical in Palm Beach and Broward; some cities take longer and we tell you which at the site visit.

    What happens if the soil report changes the design?

    If the geotechnical report or the engineer’s final plans require heavier rebar, thicker walls or a deeper shell, the contract is revised by written change order that you approve before the work happens. That is the only reason an Epic price changes after signing.

    Can I customise a package?

    Yes — heater, salt system, automation, screen enclosure, a different finish, more deck. Every change is priced as a line item at the design visit, so you see exactly what each one adds before you decide.

    Do pools add value to a home in Florida?

    In South Florida a pool is close to expected on a single-family home. Appraisers typically credit a portion of the build cost rather than all of it, so the honest case for a pool is use and saleability rather than a dollar-for-dollar return.
