Artesian Pools Of Orlando has pulled 728 building permits in total, making it one of the most prolific pool builders in the Orlando metro. Their single busiest year on record was 2020 with 28 permitted pools, though the pace has moderated since — 14 in 2023, 12 in 2024, and 9 in 2025. So far in 2026, five permits have been filed through April. The average project cost has climbed steadily from roughly $43,696 in 2020 to $81,996 in 2025, reflecting both inflation and a move toward higher-end custom builds. The most recent permitted project, filed April 2026 at 824 Vassar Street in College Park, carries an estimated value of $73,040. Right now the company is carrying 12 open permits, signaling consistent active construction across Orlando.
Their permit footprint is concentrated in a handful of established Orlando neighborhoods. Vista East leads with 50 permits, followed closely by Baldwin Park (46) and College Park (42). Lake Nona South accounts for 28 builds, while Metro West and Randal Park each show 19 permits on file. That concentration in Vista East, Baldwin Park, and College Park — three of Orlando's most desirable in-fill neighborhoods — tells you something about the clientele: buyers in established, higher-value zip codes who are upgrading mature backyards rather than breaking ground in new subdivisions. At the same time, their presence in Lake Nona South and Randal Park shows they also work the newer master-planned communities developing on Orlando's southeastern edge. The company's service area extends broadly across Orange County, with over 50 distinct neighborhoods represented in the permit record.
Pool permits make up 450 of the 728 total permits (roughly 62%), with residential building permits (RESB) accounting for another 68 and SFR new-construction permits adding 30. That SFR count is meaningful — it means Artesian is being selected as the pool contractor for new-home builds, not just backyard add-ons. The license of record is held by William Keith Cooper (license number CPC1457037), a Certified Pool/Spa Contractor with the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. Cooper has held the license since 2005, giving the company over two decades under a single licensed qualifier — a sign of continuity that matters when evaluating long-term warranty responsibility. Of the 728 total permits, 383 have been finaled, reflecting a strong project completion rate across a large body of work.
Customer reviews paint a detailed picture. The company holds a 4.3-star rating across 166 Google reviews, and an independent aggregate of 174 reviews on Birdeye scores them 4.2. Reviewer Leo Cloutier described the experience as "almost perfect" and specifically praised project manager Julio and customer contact Hannah, noting: "If I emailed her at 9:00am, I would almost always hear back from her by noon." Pete Zimek echoed the craftsmanship point: "the tile layers took almost two weeks as they measured constantly and re-set tiles that weren't exactly correct." Reviewer Jennie Zilner, who described interviewing every pool contractor in town, concluded Artesian was "the only company that presented a design that truly matched our vision." The most-mentioned positive themes in aggregate reviews are crew quality, beautiful finished product, overall quality, professionalism, communication, and on-time performance. There are some critical reviews, primarily older ones (2018–2019) citing project delays and workmanship concerns — worth reading before signing.
For a homeowner vetting this company, the data signals a mid-to-upper-tier custom builder rather than a high-volume commodity contractor. Projects permitted in 2024 and 2025 averaged $64,486 and $81,996 respectively — costs that align with premium gunite pools with spa features, travertine decking, and water elements, which is exactly what their customer reviews describe. With 12 open permits currently, they are active but not overextended. If you are comparing pool builders in Orlando, Artesian's public permit history gives you a concrete starting point for due diligence: 728 verifiable builds, a licensed qualifier on record since 2005, and a concentration of work in the neighborhoods where neighbors can vouch for the finished product.
