About Tropical Pools

Tropical Pools has 1,413 building permits on public record, with its heaviest concentration in Baldwin Park (31 permits) and Lake Nona Estates (24 permits) — two of Orlando's most sought-after residential communities.

Read more ▾

The permit record for Tropical Pools spans back to at least 2017 and totals 1,413 filed permits across all categories. Looking just at the pool-specific work tracked in recent years, the company peaked at 8 pool permits in 2020 with an average project cost of $20,813 that year. By 2023 they were averaging $49,000 per project across 2 permitted pools, and in 2024 they pulled 1 permit valued at $52,000. The most recent permit on file — 2029 Forest Club Dr in Spring Lake — was submitted in October 2025 and is currently open, valued at $58,000. Of all 1,413 permits in the database, 92 have reached final inspection, and the company currently has 1 open permit active.

Tropical Pools concentrates its pool work squarely inside Orlando's urban core and its most prestigious neighborhoods. Baldwin Park leads the permit footprint with 31 pool permits, followed by Lake Nona Estates at 24 permits and College Park at 11. Spring Lake has 6 permits on record, Delaney Park accounts for 4, and Lake Davis/Greenwood and Orwin Manor each show 3. Audubon Park, Lake Eola Heights, Lawsona/Fern Creek, Park Lake/Highland, Rose Isle, and Rowena Gardens all have at least 2 permits apiece. This pattern tells a clear story: Tropical Pools does not sprawl across the state. They work a defined, upscale Orlando market — the kind of neighborhoods where pools are an expected amenity and homeowners have high expectations.

The full permit mix across all 1,413 records shows that 768 are classified as New construction, 190 as Repair, 122 as Sign permits, 100 explicitly as Pool, 100 as Alteration, and 39 as Addition. The 100 direct Pool-type permits represent roughly 8% of total permit volume. The license behind all this work is held by William Greer Singleton under license number CPC056802, a Certified Pool/Spa Contractor designation — the highest class of pool license issued by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation. The license has been active since 2015, giving Tropical Pools more than a decade of state-credentialed operation. The 92 finaled permits in the database represent projects that went all the way through final inspection — concrete evidence of completed work, not just started jobs.

Across review platforms, Tropical Pools carries a 4.6 rating on Birdeye from 78 reviews, a 4.3 on Angi from 12 reviews, and a 4.2 on HomeAdvisor from 5 reviews. Facebook shows a 5.0 from 2 reviews, while Yelp's 1.8 from 24 reviews is the outlier that a careful homeowner should weigh. On Google, one verified reviewer wrote: "Excellent customer service even 8 years after the pool was built. Can't say enough great things about them." That review was posted in October 2024, years after the project completed — a meaningful signal about long-term relationship quality. Among the positive feedback patterns, customers specifically cite design as a standout strength.

For a homeowner vetting pool contractors in the Orlando area, the data paints a specific picture: Tropical Pools is not a high-volume production builder. Recent years show 1 to 3 pool permits annually, with permit valuations ranging from $34,000 to $62,000 in the most recent permits on record. With only 1 open permit currently active, capacity appears available. The Altamonte Springs base address (915 Baywood St) puts them in Seminole County, but the permit footprint shows they build almost entirely in Orange County's Orlando neighborhoods. If you are building in Baldwin Park, College Park, Lake Nona Estates, or the adjacent inner-ring Orlando communities, Tropical Pools has a documented record of completed work in exactly your zip code.

Tropical Pools — Frequently Asked Questions

Answered from public records.

Is Tropical Pools licensed in Florida?

Yes. Tropical Pools holds an active Florida state license, number CPC056802, classified as a Certified Pool/Spa Contractor — the highest pool contractor credential issued by the Florida DBPR. The qualifying agent is William Greer Singleton and the license has been active since 2015. You can verify current status at any time on the Florida DBPR website using that license number.

How many pools has Tropical Pools built?

Public permit records show 1,413 total permits on file, including 100 permits explicitly classified as Pool type. The busiest single year in the tracked data was 2020 with 8 pool permits. In 2023 and 2025 the company pulled 2 pool permits each year, and in 2024 they filed 1 — indicating a consistent but selective build pace in recent years.

What does a pool from Tropical Pools typically cost?

Based on public permit valuations, recent Tropical Pools projects have ranged from $34,000 to $62,000. The 2023 average was $49,000 across 2 permitted pools, the 2024 permit was valued at $52,000, and the most recent 2025 permits averaged $46,000. Note that permit valuation reflects estimated construction cost declared to the municipality and may differ from your final contract price — it is a useful benchmark, not an exact quote.

Where does Tropical Pools build?

The permit footprint is concentrated in Orlando's upscale neighborhoods. Baldwin Park leads with 31 permits, Lake Nona Estates has 24, and College Park shows 11. Spring Lake, Delaney Park, Lake Davis/Greenwood, and Orwin Manor each have several permits on record. The company is based in Altamonte Springs but does the overwhelming majority of its pool work within Orlando's city limits.

What types of work does Tropical Pools permit?

Across 1,413 total permits, the breakdown includes 768 New construction permits, 190 Repair permits, 122 Sign permits, 100 Pool-specific permits, 100 Alteration permits, and 39 Addition permits. The pool-specific category alone represents 100 permits, and the New construction category likely includes additional pool builds as part of broader residential projects. The repair and alteration volume also suggests an active service and renovation side to the business.

How busy is Tropical Pools right now?

As of June 2026, Tropical Pools has 1 open permit on file. That permit — at 2029 Forest Club Dr in Spring Lake — was filed in October 2025 and is classified as a Pool permit valued at $58,000. With only 1 active job showing in the permit database, the company appears to have capacity available for new projects.

What do customers say about Tropical Pools?

Tropical Pools has a 4.6 rating on Birdeye from 78 reviews and a 4.3 on Angi from 12 reviews. On Google, one customer wrote in October 2024: "Excellent customer service even 8 years after the pool was built. Can't say enough great things about them." The most frequently mentioned positive attribute in customer feedback is design quality. The Yelp rating of 1.8 from 24 reviews is notably lower than other platforms — worth reading in context before forming a conclusion.

How long has Tropical Pools been operating?

The qualifying license, CPC056802 under William Greer Singleton, has been active since 2015 — giving the company over a decade of state-licensed operation. The permit database confirms continuous activity through 2025, with 1,413 total permits filed over that span. The October 2024 Google review referencing "8 years after the pool was built" suggests the company was active at least as far back as 2016.

Does Tropical Pools do pool renovations and repairs in addition to new builds?

Yes. Of Tropical Pools' 1,413 total permits, 190 are classified as Repair and 100 as Alteration — together that is nearly 290 permits in the renovation and service category. This is a meaningful share of their overall work and suggests they are not purely a new-construction shop. Homeowners with existing pools looking to renovate, resurface, or repair equipment may find Tropical Pools a relevant option given this documented renovation track record.

Which Orlando neighborhoods has Tropical Pools worked in most?

The top neighborhoods by permit count are: Baldwin Park (31 permits), Lake Nona Estates (24 permits), College Park (11 permits), Spring Lake (6 permits), and Delaney Park (4 permits). Smaller footprints appear in Lake Davis/Greenwood, Orwin Manor, Audubon Park, Lake Eola Heights, Lawsona/Fern Creek, Park Lake/Highland, Rose Isle, and Rowena Gardens. This is a tight, concentrated service area around central and southeast Orlando rather than a statewide or even county-wide operation.
