We're not just pool builders — we're your neighbours. Licensed, local, and accountable from the first conversation to the final inspection.
Our own licensed crew handles every phase of your build — excavation, gunite, plumbing, electrical, tile, coping, and final inspection. No handoffs to unknown third parties, no gaps in accountability.
Miami-Dade's shallow water table and oolitic limestone soil demand a builder who knows the ground. We've handled these conditions on 500+ projects — we know exactly how to excavate, de-water, and form a shell that lasts 30+ years here.
We handle every permit, submission, revision, and county inspection through Miami-Dade's iBuild portal. You never need to deal with the county directly — it's all included in your build. See our Miami-Dade permit guide.
You receive a fully itemised estimate before any work begins — no vague quotes, no surprises mid-build. We also offer flexible pool financing options and water features to complete your backyard vision within budget.
No obligation. No surprises. Just an honest number from a licensed Miami pool builder.
Every pool we build follows a proven 6-phase process — designed around South Florida's unique soil conditions, Miami-Dade permitting requirements, and 25+ years of local experience.
We evaluate your backyard's soil stability, water table depth, and drainage — critical in South Florida. You receive a 3D design tailored to your space, lifestyle, and budget before a single permit is filed.
We handle every permit through Miami-Dade's iBuild portal — building permit, electrical permit, and engineering review where required. Most projects receive approval within 3–6 weeks. You don't lift a finger.
Our crew excavates to the exact shape of your design. In Miami-Dade the water table sits 3–10 feet below grade — we install proper de-watering systems to keep the dig stable and safe throughout.
We install rebar reinforcement, all plumbing lines, and electrical conduit — then apply gunite (shotcrete) at high pressure to form the pool shell. Gunite is the only structure that reliably handles South Florida's shifting soil.
Once the shell cures, we install your chosen waterline tile, coping stone, and deck surface. We source materials rated for Miami's UV exposure and salt air so finishes stay sharp for decades, not seasons.
We schedule all county inspections, complete the plaster or pebble finish, balance your water chemistry, and walk you through your new pool system in full. Permit to first swim: 10–16 weeks.
South Florida's high water table, sandy limestone soil, and year-round heat make pool type selection more important here than almost anywhere else in the US.
The Miami standard since 1998

Rare in South Florida for a reason
Deep Blue's recommendation: For Miami-Dade and Broward County homes, we exclusively build gunite pools. The local soil composition — oolitic limestone over sandy fill with a shallow water table — makes concrete the only structure we're comfortable putting our license (CPC1459567) behind for a 30+ year lifespan. It's why 90% of high-end pool builds in South Florida are gunite.
Building a new swimming pool is a major investment. Choosing the right contractor means finding a team that understands the complex engineering, strict local regulations, and volatile environmental conditions of South Florida. Here is how we eliminate the typical construction headaches and protect your property from day one.
Most area builders are just sales offices handing backyards down to lowest-bidding subcontractors. We manage every phase of construction 100% in-house with standard payroll employees:
One single team is fully accountable. No unknown third parties, no handoffs—just honest, licensed craftsmanship from start to first swim.
In Miami-Dade and Broward, the water table sits just 3 to 10 feet deep. An inexperienced dig can cause sandy limestone walls to saturate, cave in, and completely ruin your yard.
Your pool shell is engineered to withstand extreme water pressure without shifting, cracking, or damaging foundations.
Building a pool is a heavy construction project. We protect your property just as carefully as we build your pool structure, utilizing our strict protection workflow:
Total peace of mind knowing your property is safe. We take accountability for keeping your job site clean and secure from start to finish.

Answers from 25+ years of building pools across Miami-Dade and Broward County.
New pool construction in Miami generally starts around $45,000 for a basic concrete gunite pool and can exceed $120,000 for a custom build with a spa, water features, smart automation, and premium finishes. South Florida's soil conditions, shallow water table, and Miami-Dade permitting add to the overall cost compared to most other states. Deep Blue provides free, itemised estimates — no surprises at any stage. See our full pool cost guide for a detailed breakdown.
Most new construction projects in Miami-Dade take 10–16 weeks from permit submission to first swim. Permitting through Miami-Dade's iBuild portal takes 3–6 weeks. Excavation, gunite shell, plumbing, and electrical take 4–6 weeks. Tile, coping, decking, and plaster complete the final 3–4 weeks. Deep Blue handles every permit application and county inspection on your behalf — you don't manage any of the county process.
Concrete (gunite) is the right choice for Miami homes. South Florida's shallow water table — typically 3–10 ft below grade — makes fiberglass shells vulnerable to floating when drained. Vinyl liners degrade rapidly under Miami's UV and humidity, needing replacement every 5–9 years. Gunite handles our shifting sandy limestone soil, offers unlimited design flexibility, and lasts 30–50 years with proper care. It's why 90% of South Florida's high-end pool builds are gunite — and why Deep Blue builds exclusively in gunite.
Miami-Dade requires a building permit, electrical permit, and in many cases a structural engineering review. All applications are submitted through the county's iBuild portal. Florida's Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act also mandates specific fencing, barrier, and alarm requirements. Deep Blue handles every permit submission, county revision, and scheduled inspection — it's all included in our full-service build scope. Read our Miami-Dade pool permit guide.
In Miami's climate and real estate market, a well-built pool typically adds 5–15% to a home's resale value and significantly increases buyer appeal. With South Florida's year-round outdoor lifestyle, a pool is considered a standard amenity — not a luxury — in many Miami-Dade neighbourhoods. Homes in Coral Gables, Aventura, Palmetto Bay, and Key Biscayne with pools consistently sell faster and at stronger prices than comparable homes without.
Deep Blue Pool & Spa is a fully licensed pool contractor (License CPC1459567) and our own trained team manages every phase — design, permitting, excavation, gunite shell, plumbing, electrical, tile, coping, deck, and final inspection walkthrough.
