Fiberglass Pool Installation in Volusia County: common questions
Who issues pool permits in Volusia County, FL?
The Volusia County Building and Code Administration. The county division runs the Permit Center, building code administration and contractor licensing. Homes inside a city's limits usually permit through that city's own building department; confirm which office covers your address before applying.
Does the Volusia County Building and Code Administration cover every address in Volusia County?
The county office handles unincorporated Volusia County. Homes inside a city usually permit through that city's own building department; confirm which office covers your address before applying.
Can a fiberglass pool be installed where the water table is high?
It can, but the design has to account for groundwater pushing up on the shell. Orange County, for example, asks fiberglass permit applicants to show the method used to resist hydrostatic pressure based on soil conditions, plus the leveling, step support and backfill methods.
Is a fiberglass pool faster to install than concrete?
There is no shell to form or cure on site, which removes steps from the schedule. The overall time still depends on permits, inspections, delivery and the deck. Playwell gives a schedule after the site review.
