Pool Type Cost Comparison for Tavares Homeowners

Pool Type Typical Cost in Tavares Lifespan in Florida Maintenance Best For
Gunite (Concrete) $65,000 – $130,000 50+ years (with replaster every 10–15) Higher (chemical balancing, replaster cycle) Custom shapes, depth changes, infinity edges
Fiberglass $50,000 – $85,000 25+ years (no replaster needed) Lower (smooth gel-coat resists algae) Faster install, lower lifetime maintenance
Vinyl Liner $40,000 – $65,000 15–20 years (liner replacement every 7–10 yrs) Medium (liner sensitive to chemistry) Lowest upfront cost, simple shapes

Aqua’s all-inclusive packages use gunite construction coordinated through licensed Florida contractors — the longest-lasting option for Tavares’s climate, with the design flexibility to match any backyard layout.
