Tropical Pools and Pavers,LLC.

What Tropical Pools and Pavers,LLC. does

Tropical Pools and Pavers, LLC is a privately held Florida residential pool construction and renovation company founded in 2010 and headquartered at 706 Jeffords Street, Clearwater. The company designs and builds custom in-ground swimming pools — covering outdoor, enclosed, saltwater, rock, infinity/vanishing-edge, lagoon/natural, black-bottom, lap, and sports pool styles — and complements the core pool service with pool renovations, screen enclosures, custom spas, hardscaping/pavers (brick, travertine, marble, porcelain, artistic, cast stone), and water features such as natural rock, boulder, cascade, ledge, and flagstone waterfalls. Technology deployed is largely third-party supplied: professional 3D design visualization for pre-construction customer presentations, Jandy variable speed pumps (advertised to cut energy costs by up to 70%), LED lighting systems, and Jandy smartphone/remote pool control systems. Partner brands include PebbleTec (pool finishes) and Jandy (equipment) as core suppliers, plus material vendors (Aquabella, Artistic Pavers, Flagstone, Luv Tile, Stone-Mart) and a service partner (Bud's Pool Service for leak detection).

The company operates an exclusively direct-to-consumer go-to-market model targeting Florida homeowners in the Tampa Bay / St. Petersburg area, specifically Hillsborough, Pinellas, and Pasco counties. Sales are led by free in-home estimates and on-site design consultations using 3D renderings, supported by an organic social presence (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn), a content-marketing blog, project galleries, and a testimonial library of more than 30 customer references. Revenue is entirely project-based and quote-driven: each engagement is a one-time construction contract, with no recurring service, maintenance, or subscription layer disclosed. Customer financing is offered through a partnership with Lyon Financial, which expands accessibility to larger backyard-transformation bundles. The company holds Better Business Bureau accreditation, is family-operated with owners Curtis Larson and Ronnie Larson directly involved in project oversight, and runs with a small team of roughly 11 employees.

Others

• PebbleTec: Premium pool surface material manufacturer and a key supplier/partner to Tropical. Relevant ecosystem participant — represents one of the upstream material inputs that differentiates Tropical's finished pools.

• California Pools & Landscape: Large multi-state pool and landscape design/build firm. Comparable product offering (custom pools, spas, landscaping, pavers) but serves broader geographies and operates at much larger scale than Tropical.
• Anthony & Sylvan Pools: One of the largest and oldest pool builders in the US, operating across multiple states including Florida. Overlaps with Tropical on custom residential pool construction but at significantly greater scale and broader geographic reach.
• Blue Haven Pools: National residential pool builder with Florida franchise locations. Comparable in custom pool design and construction but operates as a broader, multi-region incumbent rather than a single-market specialist.
