Their peak years were 2001 and 2002, each with 7 permits pulled.

Permit valuations from the City of Orlando database show average permitted project costs of $18,290 in 2001, $21,529 in 2002, and $22,333 in 2000. These are permit-declared construction values from 2000–2002 and do not reflect current market pricing.

All 18 permits in the public record are categorized as Pool work — that is 100% pool-only permitting with no fence, SFR new construction, or other work types appearing in the data. This is a pool-specialist operation by the numbers. The company offers custom design, with multiple reviewers noting on-the-spot 3D pool mock-ups created during the initial consultation.

This dataset reflects past activity rather than current Jacksonville-area workload.

No complaint tags appear in the review analysis. Reviewer Ian Klein wrote: 'This is not the first time I've built a pool, but I will say this is the best pool builder I've ever worked with.' Cindy Whiting noted the company resolved a 25-year-old permitting records issue for her home, calling it proof of the lifetime warranty claim.

The Florida DBPR license CPC1459777 for this entity has been on file since 2022. However, customer reviews extend back further, with Cindy Whiting's February 2026 review noting that Anthony & Sylvan built her pool 25 years prior — suggesting the brand has operated in the Florida market for decades under various license holders. The 18 Orlando-area permits on record span 2000 through 2002. For the full company history, the Anthony & Sylvan brand nationally dates back to 1946.

Multiple reviewers specifically called out Anthony & Sylvan's warranty as a key differentiator. Ian Klein ranked it as the second most important factor in his builder selection, writing: 'Warranty (Anthony & Sylvan has the best warranty) — this is huge.' Cindy Whiting's review tested the warranty in practice 25 years after her pool was built: the company's Jacksonville design consultant volunteered to resolve a county permitting records issue with her construction permit at no charge, leading her to conclude: 'When your Anthony & Sylvan representative tells you about their Lifetime warranty — YOU CAN BELIEVE IT.' Ask the company for the current written warranty terms before signing.

Reviewer Ian Klein reported that Anthony & Sylvan quoted him a realistic build timeline and stated their average pool build is about 55 days, contrasting with a competitor that quoted 4 to 6 months. Azyadeth Francois confirmed: 'just two months later, our pool was complete.' Mikey Valadez documented a build from October 5 to November 23, 2023 — 49 days start to finish — and noted neighbors were amazed at the pace. The company uses an automated daily email system to keep homeowners informed of completed work and next steps throughout the build.
