Griffin Pools, INC.

Griffin Pools, INC. is a pool construction and remodeling business founded in 1975 and based in Lake Wales, Florida. The company states that it constructs new pools, remodels existing pools, and builds hot tubs, plunge pools, spas, waterfalls, and outdoor living areas. For homeowners researching Florida pool contractors across the pool contractor directory, this specific service mix indicates a focus on ground-up building and structural renovations rather than routine water chemistry service or basic maintenance visits.

Stated Services and Project Planning

According to the company's published details, Griffin Pools provides the following services:

• New pool construction
• Pool remodeling
• Hot tubs and spas
• Plunge pools
• Waterfalls and water features
• Outdoor living areas

Because the business handles both new ground-up installations and remodels, renovations may involve structural modifications, plumbing alterations, or adding integrated features such as waterfalls and attached spas. A complete structural remodel or custom new installation involves excavation, concrete or shell placement, plumbing runs, and electrical connections. If your planned project only requires cosmetic interior plaster refinishing without structural alterations or plumbing changes, explore our guides on pool finishes and resurfacing costs to see how standalone replastering scopes and estimates differ from complete remodeling projects.

Service Area and Local Jurisdictions

The business lists its service area across four Central Florida counties: Polk County, Hardee County, Hillsborough County, and Highlands County, alongside the city of Lake Wales.

Building an inground pool or making structural changes to an existing pool requires building permits from the specific county or municipal building division where the property sits. Because permitting timelines, setback requirements, barrier laws, and inspection schedules differ between Hillsborough, Polk, Hardee, and Highlands counties, homeowners should confirm which local department has jurisdiction over their property and verify how permit applications will be handled.

Public Reviews and History

As of September 2, 2026, Griffin Pools holds a 4.1 rating based on 132 Google reviews.

A total of 132 reviews can be considered a substantial volume of public feedback for a regional builder. When evaluating reviews on an established company founded in 1975, look for feedback that matches the specific scope of work you are planning. Experiences reported for an extensive new pool build with custom waterfalls and masonry can differ significantly in timeline and site logistics compared to a targeted pool renovation or spa addition.

Questions to Ask Before Signing

When meeting with Griffin Pools, INC. or any pool builder to discuss a project quote, consider asking the following questions based on their advertised services:

• Permits and Inspections: Will Griffin Pools pull all necessary building, plumbing, and electrical permits under licence CPC1459778 with your local county or municipal building division?
• Trade Management: Does the company use direct employees or specialized subcontractors for excavation, gunite or shell placement, plumbing, and waterfall construction?
• Hydraulic Integration: If you are adding a plunge pool, hot tub, or waterfall feature to an existing pool, how will the additional water volume and flow affect your current pump, filter, and sanitisation equipment?
• Site Access and Protection: How will heavy construction equipment access your backyard, and what steps will be taken to protect existing yard areas, driveways, and underground utility lines during construction?
