Pools and homes we typically see in Eagle Lake
Eagle Lake is a small community with a mix of established homes and newer construction. Pools are typically screened residential pools, and many are due for resurfacing, tile and deck updates.
Whatever the age of your pool, start by photographing the interior, the waterline tile, the deck and the equipment pad, and note anything that has changed recently, such as new cracks, falling water levels or a noisy pump. Those details help a contractor understand the job before the first visit.

A planning tip for Eagle Lake
A small city can mean a shorter path to the right person at the building department. Call early to ask what your project needs.
Permits for Eagle Lake pool projects
Properties inside Eagle Lake city limits should start with the City of Eagle Lake. Unincorporated addresses nearby use Polk County's Building Division.
New pools, structural repairs, new electrical or gas work, added equipment and many deck and enclosure projects commonly need permits. Florida also requires every new residential pool to have at least one approved safety feature under its Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act.
Your pre-planning checklist
- Confirm whether your property is inside a city or town or in unincorporated Polk County.
- Check your HOA or deed restrictions for rules on enclosures, decks and colors.
- Ask your contractor who pulls the permit and schedules inspections.
- Verify the contractor's license with the DBPR license search and ask for proof of insurance.
- Get an itemized written estimate and a written schedule.
What pool projects cost
Costs depend on your pool's size and condition and the materials you choose. National figures from Angi put resurfacing at about $6,000 to $15,000 for a typical pool, with an average around $11,000. Angi lists pool tile replacement at $3,000 to $20,000 and a variable-speed pump at $800 to $2,500 installed, while HomeGuide puts deck resurfacing at about $3 to $12 per square foot. These are national averages, not Eagle Lake quotes, so use them only to get oriented. Ask for an itemized estimate that separates preparation, repairs, materials, equipment, permits and labor.
How to get started
Gather photos of your pool and equipment, your address and a short description of what you want to change. Then call 863-270-7792 or send the estimate form. Your request is reviewed and, with your consent, shared with a contractor who serves Eagle Lake when one is available for your location. The contractor follows up, inspects the pool and prepares a written estimate. Nothing is booked when you submit, and the decision to proceed is yours.

Eagle Lake pool remodeling FAQ
Do I get permits from Polk County or from Eagle Lake?
If your property is inside Eagle Lake's city limits, start with the city's building department. If it is outside, Polk County's Building Division usually handles it. Confirm for your address.
How much does it cost to resurface a pool in Eagle Lake?
National figures from Angi put most resurfacing projects between about $6,000 and $15,000. Your price depends on the pool size, the finish, repairs and tile work. Ask for an itemized estimate.
Can I combine resurfacing, tile and deck work in Eagle Lake?
Yes. Combining work means the pool is drained and the site set up only once, and it lets the contractor do the work in the right order so the new finish is protected.
