Does Pool Creations manage HOA and ARC submissions in Sarasota?

Bring your community requirements to the consultation so the drawings, selections, submittals and responsibilities can be established for your scope. HOA approval and government permits are separate review steps.
Where does a Sarasota pool consultation start?
The initial new-construction consultation normally takes place at the Pool Creations Design Center, 1744 S. Tamiami Trail in Venice. Bring a survey if available, yard and access photos, HOA information, feature priorities and your intended investment. A site evaluation may follow when appropriate. Any applicable professional design fee is explained before that work begins.
How much should I plan to invest in a new custom pool?
New custom swimming pool projects from Pool Creations generally start around $100,000. The final investment depends on design, pool and deck size, spa configuration, finishes, equipment, access, site conditions and structural requirements. Remodeling and resurfacing are evaluated separately around the existing pool and requested work.
Does a Sarasota mailing address identify the pool permit office?
The permit authority must be confirmed for the actual property. A Sarasota mailing address alone does not establish whether the property is within the City of Sarasota or unincorporated Sarasota County. Pool Creations reviews jurisdiction, engineering and applicable HOA requirements during project planning.
