Freedom Pools and Spas is not a franchise or a high-volume shop. The owners are on-site for every build — from first consultation through fill day. That's a rare thing in the Sarasota pool market.
Founded in 2020, we've built a reputation in Sarasota and Manatee County on a simple model: always answer the phone, always show up when we say we will, and deliver the pool exactly as quoted. Every build starts with a 3D render — so you see it before a shovel touches your yard.
Each project sketched in person, rendered in 3D, and built by owners on-site from dig day through fill day. Tap any build to see the materials, the spec, and the client's own words.
We don't have a house style we push on every client. We read the property, the lot, and how your family actually lives — then we build the pool that fits.
Rectilinear geometry, dark plaster, brushed metal, infinity edges. Florida minimalism at its sharpest.
Travertine coping, terracotta accents, courtyard scale. The Sarasota good life, built in concrete.
Grottos, swim-up bars, cascading water features. For the homeowner who entertains at scale.
Long, clean swim lanes with built-in tanning shelves. For the daily-swimmer household.
Custom gunite spas for the homeowner who wants the daily ritual without the full pool footprint.
Resurface, retile, replumb, convert to salt — we restore existing pools to a better-than-new standard.
No surprises. No mystery subcontractors. The owners who quoted your pool are the same people who hand you the keys to it.
Every feature below is built into the pool from day one — engineered into the plumbing, the gunite, and the deck. None of it is bolt-on.
Gas, heat pump, or solar. Year-round swimming in Sarasota's mild winters.
Gentler on skin, lower maintenance, and cleaner long-term water chemistry.
Jandy, Pentair, or Hayward — control your entire pool from your phone.
Stone-face spillovers, sheet falls, bubblers, and grotto cascades.
Gas-fed fire bowls on raised plinths. The signature Gulf Coast evening detail.
Shallow 9–12″ shelves — for Sarasota's 300+ sunny days per year.
Raised in-ground spas with cascading sheet spillover into the main basin.
Pebble Tec, Pebble Sheen, and Pebble Fina — premium quartz aggregates built to last Florida's chemistry.
Screen enclosures, outdoor kitchens, pergolas, fire pits — we design and build the entire backyard as a single project, with a single crew, on a single timeline.
Pool screen enclosures are a Florida essential — they keep the pool clean, reduce chemical use, extend your swim season, and keep the bugs out. We design and build the enclosure as part of the original pool plan — never as an afterthought.
Full outdoor kitchens with stainless grills, prep sinks, refrigeration, and side burners — built into the same hardscape as the pool, in the same stone, with the same finishes.
Gas-fed fire bowls on raised plinths, integrated fire pit seating walls, and complete LED lighting packages for the pool and surrounding hardscape. The Sarasota evening, elevated.
The deck makes the pool. Travertine for cool-underfoot Florida summers, brick pavers for the Mediterranean builds, or brushed concrete for the modern projects — each spec'd to stay comfortable in Sarasota heat.
Freedom Pools and Spas was founded in Sarasota in 2020 on a simple premise: the pool industry has too many salespeople and not enough builders who show up. We fixed that by making the owners the builders.
What you get is not a rep handing you off to a crew you've never met. You get the owners on your property, on your timeline, on every problem the build throws at us — from first consultation through the owner walkthrough on fill day.

We come to you. Site visit is about 90 minutes — we walk the property, you tell us how you actually want to use the backyard, we sketch the first layout on the spot. No fee, no pressure, no sales script.
From there we'll produce a full 3D render and a fixed bid. If it's a fit, we set a dig date. If it isn't, you keep the render.
