Custom Pool Design & Construction for Fort Lauderdale’s Waterfront & Canal-Front Homes
Fort Lauderdale is known as the Venice of America, with 165 miles of inland waterways running through neighborhoods such as Las Olas Isles, Rio Vista, Seven Isles, Harbor Beach, and Coral Ridge. From compact urban lots to canal-front and waterfront settings, each property brings its own design, access, elevation, and outdoor-living considerations.
Pool & Patio Design creates custom in-ground concrete pools for Fort Lauderdale homeowners. Options can include modern geometric pools, freeform pool designs, custom spas, sun shelves, water features, and deck materials such as travertine, marble, and shellstone. The right combination depends on your home, how you want to use the space, and the requirements of the project.

Services include resurfacing and refinishing, retiling, decking, equipment work, custom spas, and water features.
Fort Lauderdale’s coastal climate, strong sun, rain, and salt-air exposure can all influence material and equipment decisions. A project-specific consultation helps determine the appropriate scope and priorities for your existing pool and outdoor space.
Equipment Upgrades & Coastal Considerations for Fort Lauderdale Pools
Modern pool equipment options may include smart automation, high-efficiency heat pumps, pool chillers, lighting, and water-feature controls. For canal-front, Intracoastal, and other coastal-area properties, your project discussion can also account for salt-air exposure and the conditions around the pool environment.
Fort Lauderdale Pool Cost, Timeline & Permits: What to Expect
Company guidance for new pool construction in South Florida typically starts in the $50,000 to $100,000+ range. Final cost depends on the pool size, layout, materials, site conditions, and features such as a spa, water feature, decking, or automation. A project consultation is the right way to establish a scope-specific estimate.
Pool & Patio Design states that a typical new build can take about 8 to 12 weeks from excavation to final inspection, with timing affected by the design, permitting, inspections, weather, and project complexity. Planning should also account for South Florida’s wet season and the June 1 through November 30 Atlantic hurricane season.
