Temple Terrace issues its own permits; homes inside city limits are not part of this ranking. Ranked by new inground pools built for homeowners (permits filed Nov 2025 - Oct 2026); pools that a home builder sells with a new house are not counted. Median job = the median value declared on those permits. All 5 areas = the builder's homeowner pools across Tampa, Hillsborough, Pinellas, Pasco and Manatee. License = the state license shown on the permit. How we rank.

The cost table describes nearby homes outside city limits, so keep that location label attached to the figures. For your Temple Terrace project, ask a builder to price a complete design after seeing the property, including the shell, deck and equipment.
| Pool | Median permit value | Middle half of jobs | Permits | Data from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Inground pool (no spa) | $74,000 | $57,400 - $106,300 | 30 | Temple Terrace and nearby ZIP codes outside city limits |
| Inground pool with spa | $108,000 | $80,000 - $132,300 | 9 | Temple Terrace and nearby ZIP codes outside city limits |
Values are what builders declared on public permits (job value at filing). They are local figures for information, not a quote: only a builder who sees your yard can price your pool.
The nearby-area pool-only median declared permit value is $74,000 from 30 filings. Its pool-with-spa median is $108,000 from 9 filings. Those values were declared at filing and are not completed invoices. Each group contains different full projects, so comparing the medians cannot establish the price of adding a spa. Use the rows to frame questions, then have the bidder explain the inclusions and assumptions in the price for your chosen plan.
At the yard visit, start with the surfaces and routes that already work for your household. Show the builder how people reach the patio and where you want seating after construction. Ask it to explain the excavation access and the proposed pump and filter position. Concrete and fiberglass proposals should each describe the surrounding work as well as the shell. That gives you a clearer comparison than totals attached to different drawings or equipment selections.
Within Temple Terrace, use the City of Temple Terrace Building & Permitting Department. The builder you select handles the application. Have it confirm the address and explain which documents it needs before you settle the plan, then keep the application and permit references together.
Permit office: City of Temple Terrace Building & Permitting Department
City of Temple Terrace Building & Permitting Department permits are not part of this ranking; it uses Hillsborough County (unincorporated) permits for homes outside city limits in the Temple Terrace area. ZIP codes counted: 33617, 33637, 33610, 33612, 33613, 33584, 33592. Your builder pulls the permit; you can look it up afterwards by address.
County details and official sources: pool permits in Hillsborough County.
The permit office box links to the city's official building information and permit portal. Use the property address to look for the record and ask the company to help you identify the correct filing. Request the permit number before excavation so the approved work can be matched to your agreement. Temple Terrace's published inspection information says requested inspections are scheduled between 9 am and 4 pm on the following business day; that is an inspection arrangement, not total project timing.
Keep safety in the design discussion rather than leaving it until the yard looks finished. Florida allows a barrier meeting its standard and specified alternatives such as an approved safety cover or qualifying alarms. If the design uses a barrier, gates must open outward, away from the water, and close and latch themselves. Ask the builder to explain the selected option for your layout, including access from the house, ahead of the final inspection.
Ask for a Temple Terrace schedule built around your drawing and the city's process. The timing figures come from permits in unincorporated Hillsborough County, where Temple Terrace homes outside city limits are permitted; they exclude the City of Temple Terrace's own permit office. They do not set a completion date for your home.
Hillsborough County (unincorporated): median 4 days from application to permit issue, 124 days from issue to final inspection, 128 days from application to final (sample of 60 finished pool permits).
Step by step: how long a pool takes.
In the separate county sample of 60 finished pools, the median application-to-final interval was 128 days. Application to issue was 4 days and issue to final inspection was 124 days. Those figures provide regional background only for a city project. Ask the bidder to describe the actual steps it proposes for your address, including work before application. Choosing a shell, agreeing on the deck and preparing drawings precede the start of a permit-record clock.
A useful schedule conversation includes what the household needs to decide next. Ask when the equipment location, enclosure preference and safety option must be settled, and how a later change gets recorded. Discuss interruptions from summer storms and who will explain a changed work sequence. Keep the final inspection in that conversation, alongside the pool shell and paving. A proposed order of work should make the remaining decisions understandable while the yard is under construction.
Use the nearby records as interview leads, then assess each proposal against your Temple Terrace plan. Islandway Pools, LLC has 3 homeowner filings in the group, all pool-only. Verify the current license at myfloridalicense.com and seek three written quotes with matching specifications.
Reeds Swimming Pools recorded 2 projects in this group, both with spas, while Dynasty Pools and Spas Corp recorded 2 without spas. Those details help you ask focused questions about the project type you want. They do not establish workmanship or the experience you will have with a company. The ranking follows filing counts, with no paid positions. Look at the proposed work description and license record as separate parts of your hiring decision.
Read the contract with the drawing beside it so changes in shell size, paving or heater choices are easy to spot. Ask how extra work will be approved in writing. Florida's deposit rule requires permit application within 30 days when the contractor receives more than 10 percent as the initial payment. Its start-of-work requirement is within 90 days after permits are issued, subject to exceptions. Discuss these obligations and inspection-linked payments before agreeing to the financial schedule.
The Temple Terrace area ZIPs listed here are 33617 and 33637. The single county-recorded homeowner pool in those local ZIP records uses Tampa as its mailing city. Give the full address to each bidder rather than relying on the mailing name to describe the property.
An older home's yard can give the drawing a useful starting point. Identify the back door you use most, a shaded sitting place and the paving you expect to keep. Ask the builder to show how the pool edge would connect those areas without leaving the deck as an afterthought. If your address has association review, bring the relevant materials. The first plan should account for both the water and the outdoor space your family will use beside it.
Nearby community pages can add companies to your interview list, but they cannot describe the conditions behind your house. Walk the access route with the bidder and discuss excavation assumptions, equipment placement and the effect of summer rain on outdoor work. For a new-home project, use the planned lanai and house layout in the same discussion. Keep the mailing name, permit jurisdiction and actual yard features clear so each quote starts from the right information.
Builders rank by new inground homeowner pools filed on public permits. Pools sold in a home builder's package are left out.
The contractor named on the permit gets the credit. Look up a permit by address to check its description, status and contractor.
Rankings are never paid. Partners only get a call button; their place in the table still comes from the pool permits.
The City of Temple Terrace Building & Permitting Department is the office for properties within the city. Have your hired builder confirm the address, handle the application and explain the documents. Use the official links in the office box to follow the filing.
Islandway Pools, LLC recorded 3 homeowner pools in the displayed group, all without spas. Filing volume measures activity rather than construction quality. Read the project mix, verify the current license and compare proposals describing the same shell, deck and equipment for your property.
The table contains median declared permit values from the labeled nearby area outside city limits. They are historical filing figures, not estimates for a city home. Arrange a property visit and ask a builder to price the full pool plan you select.
Temple Terrace's published inspection arrangement describes when requested inspections are scheduled. It does not describe the entire pool project. Ask the company about drawing preparation, any association review, outdoor work and the remaining steps through final inspection when discussing your own schedule.
