West Shore Pools & Outdoor Living, LLC

Yes. West Shore Pools & Outdoor Living, LLC holds an active Florida state license number CPC1461075, classified as Certified Pool/Spa Contractor — the highest pool-specific credential issued by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation (DBPR). The qualifier on record is Anthony Francisco Arredondo, licensed since 2025. You can independently verify the license status at the DBPR website any time before signing a contract.

Public permit records show 12 pool permits filed in Hillsborough County, all within 2025. Every permit on record is classified as Pool work — no mixed permit types. While 12 permitted projects is a smaller total than long-established Tampa builders, the concentrated December 2025 filing batch suggests the company ramped up quickly. Ask them directly about projects completed before their Hillsborough County permit history began, as some contractors work across jurisdictions.

The average permit valuation across all 12 on-record projects is $36,947, but individual permit estimates filed in December 2025 tell a different story: 3407 S Lightner Dr was valued at $76,729, 1005 W Braddock St at $67,491, 1003 W Braddock St at $74,540, and 3304 W Lawn Ave at $72,564. Permit valuations are the contractor's declared construction cost for permitting purposes and often understate final project price once design, decking, and equipment upgrades are included. Expect a custom quote to reflect the $65,000–$85,000+ range for a full custom build in South Tampa.

All 12 permits on record are in Hillsborough County. Known job addresses cluster in South Tampa — W Braddock St, W Lawn Ave, and S Lightner Dr all appear in the permit batch. The company is based at 3644B S Westshore Blvd, Tampa, FL 33629, and its website describes service across the Tampa Bay area. The permit footprint is tight and local, which is common for newer contractors building a neighborhood reputation before expanding their geographic reach.

Every one of the 12 permits on record is classified as Pool work — 100% pool-focused with no fence, residential structure, or other permit types mixed in. This is consistent with a dedicated custom pool and outdoor living specialist rather than a general contractor. The company website describes new pool construction, pool remodeling, and pool equipment repair as their core services, and the permit mix aligns with that positioning.

As of the current permit data, West Shore Pools has 0 open permits on file. The most recent permits were processed in December 2025 — six permits were filed on December 5, 2025, and one reached Site Plan Review Complete status on December 8, 2025. With no currently open permits showing in public records, they may have availability, but contractor backlog changes quickly. Call (813) 494-2417 directly to ask about their current schedule before assuming immediate availability.

West Shore Pools holds a 4.8-star rating from 23 Google reviews — above the Florida contractor average of roughly 4.4. Yelp shows a separate 3.9 from 10 reviewers. The most frequently cited praise tags are: recommend, crew, professional, and communication. Judi Almaguer summarized the experience well: "The communication throughout our entire project was fantastic — each and every time I called, the response was immediate." One negative review flagged a rude phone interaction with an office staff member, so it is worth noting that first-call experiences may vary from the hands-on crew experience.

The Florida DBPR license CPC1461075 under qualifier Anthony Francisco Arredondo was issued in 2025, making West Shore Pools a newer entrant to the licensed contractor market. All 12 permits on public record were filed in 2025 as well, confirming the timeline. Newer licenses are not inherently a concern — the certified pool/spa credential requires passing state exams and meeting experience requirements — but you should ask about projects completed under prior licenses or employment if you want a longer track record.

Yes — multiple Google reviews specifically reference service and repair work, not just new construction. Jeremy Krueger noted that the service department dispatched a technician around the Christmas holiday who "explained exactly what the problem was, offered advice on long-term solutions and got us up and running." KarthiK DaS praised a plumbing-line leak repair: "They kept us updated the entire time and left everything clean when they were done." The company website confirms equipment repair as a core service alongside new builds and remodeling, which is relevant if you want one company for both construction and ongoing maintenance support.

Not exactly. Permit valuations are the estimated construction cost declared when pulling a building permit — they represent the structural and installation cost but typically exclude design fees, site preparation, decking, landscaping, and premium equipment upgrades. West Shore Pools' recent permit filings ranged from $67,491 to $76,729, which is a reasonable baseline, but your final contract price will depend on your specific design choices. Use the permit data as a rough market-rate anchor, not a firm quote.
