If you haven&rsquo;t been lucky enough to buy a home with a pool already installed, you can set up one, whether it be an above-ground or an in-ground pool. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there is quite a bit of planning that needs to go into this project, including obtaining a permit where necessary.

If you are planning on installing an in-ground pool without a licensed contractor, you will need an additional Own-Builder permit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All in-ground pools are permitted to be secured with a safety barrier, which also needs a permit. Above-ground pools that are higher than 48 inches need a ladder. If no ladder is present, then a barrier or fence is necessary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Above-ground-swimming-pool-and-in-ground-swimming-pool.jpg\" alt=\"Above ground swimming pool and in ground swimming pool\" class=\"wp-image-29761\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Above-ground-swimming-pool-and-in-ground-swimming-pool.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Above-ground-swimming-pool-and-in-ground-swimming-pool-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Above-ground-swimming-pool-and-in-ground-swimming-pool-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Above-ground-swimming-pool-and-in-ground-swimming-pool-960x700.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Above-ground-swimming-pool-and-in-ground-swimming-pool.jpg.webp\" alt=\"Above ground swimming pool and in ground swimming pool\" class=\"wp-image-29761 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Above-ground-swimming-pool-and-in-ground-swimming-pool.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Above-ground-swimming-pool-and-in-ground-swimming-pool-300x219.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Above-ground-swimming-pool-and-in-ground-swimming-pool-768x560.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Above-ground-swimming-pool-and-in-ground-swimming-pool-960x700.jpg.webp 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Above-ground-swimming-pool-and-in-ground-swimming-pool.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-2\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Lee County and the City of Palm Coast, alarms are permitted in place of fences or safety barriers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The City of Orlando requires three different permits for in-ground pool installation, namely building, electrical, and engineering permits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why You Need a Permit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Permits ensure that homeowners have been following the rules and regulations set out by the Florida Building Code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Regulations are set in place to ensure the safety of pool users and bystanders. Permits also show that your chosen area is fit enough to build a swimming pool (if in-ground) and be able to support the construction that takes place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a regular homeowner, you may not have all the expertise to do just this, which is why its so crucial to have an <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/who-pulls-permits\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"7244\">experienced contractor<\/a> inspect the area and make sure you don&rsquo;t put lives in danger or land up wasting money by building in a spot not fit enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are sneaky and skip the permit process, the chances of you getting caught could be low (as long as you plan on never selling), but if you are caught, it could come with a hefty fine or you could land up being forced to get rid of your pool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hopefully, though, they will just fine you and make you <a href=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/permit-already-finished-basement\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"4890\">apply after the fact<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What You Will Need for the Pool Application<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To obtain your permit, there are certain documents that you would need to submit along with your application form. Application forms are available on the official government pages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether you are installing an above-ground pool or an in-ground pool, you will need to provide a site plan that looks at the location and dimensions of your pool as well as access points for electrical work and plumbing. This will determine if your chosen site is fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For in-ground pools, Licensed or Registered Architects need to provide sealed design plans, according to the Residential Florida Building code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/For-in-ground-pools-Licensed-or-Registered-Architects-need-to-provide-sealed-design-plans.jpg\" alt=\"For in-ground pools, Licensed or Registered Architects need to provide sealed design plans\" class=\"wp-image-29762\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/For-in-ground-pools-Licensed-or-Registered-Architects-need-to-provide-sealed-design-plans.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/For-in-ground-pools-Licensed-or-Registered-Architects-need-to-provide-sealed-design-plans-300x219.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/For-in-ground-pools-Licensed-or-Registered-Architects-need-to-provide-sealed-design-plans-768x560.jpg 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/For-in-ground-pools-Licensed-or-Registered-Architects-need-to-provide-sealed-design-plans-960x700.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\"><\/noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"729\" src=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/For-in-ground-pools-Licensed-or-Registered-Architects-need-to-provide-sealed-design-plans.jpg.webp\" alt=\"For in-ground pools, Licensed or Registered Architects need to provide sealed design plans\" class=\"wp-image-29762 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/For-in-ground-pools-Licensed-or-Registered-Architects-need-to-provide-sealed-design-plans.jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/For-in-ground-pools-Licensed-or-Registered-Architects-need-to-provide-sealed-design-plans-300x219.jpg.webp 300w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/For-in-ground-pools-Licensed-or-Registered-Architects-need-to-provide-sealed-design-plans-768x560.jpg.webp 768w, https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/For-in-ground-pools-Licensed-or-Registered-Architects-need-to-provide-sealed-design-plans-960x700.jpg.webp 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 760px) calc(100vw - 24px), 720px\" data-pin-media=\"https:\/\/thetibble.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/For-in-ground-pools-Licensed-or-Registered-Architects-need-to-provide-sealed-design-plans.jpg\" id=\"mv-trellis-img-3\" data-trellis-processed=\"1\"><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>You will also need to provide manufacturers&rsquo; installation specifications if you are installing an above-ground pool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are an Orange County resident, you would also need to provide a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.orangecountyfl.net\/Portals\/0\/resource%20library\/permits%20-%20licenses\/Swimming-Pool-Safety-Affirmation-CERT.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Swimming Pool Affirmation<\/a> certificate if your pool is less than 48 inches high and does not have a ladder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the City of Fort Lauderdale, you are required to have a licensed contractor sign a <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fortlauderdale.gov\/home\/showdocument?id=1520\" target=\"_blank\">Dewatering Affidavit<\/a> for your permit application This can be obtained by the Department of Sustainable Development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Where to Apply<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Luckily, we are in a technology-driven era, and one can apply online in most parts of Florida, such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Miami-Dade Count<\/strong>y: You can send in your application to the Department of Regulatory and Economic Resources.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Orange County<\/strong>: Submit permit online on their Fast Track online services portal.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Escambia County<\/strong>: Applications can be set to the Escambia County Building Inspections Division via email (<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"mailto:buildinginspections@myescambia.com\" target=\"_blank\">buildinginspections@myescambia.com<\/a>).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Lee County<\/strong>: if you are submitting a paper application you would need to deliver the completed application and its supporting documents to the Building Department.
