Why fiberglass works for Clearwater homes
- Clearwater is a mature, mostly built-out city, so many projects mean replacing an old pool or fitting a new one around existing patios, trees, and screen enclosures. A fiberglass shell can often be set in a tighter footprint than a custom concrete build needs for forming.
- Coastal salt air and summer heat are rough on plaster. Fiberglass gelcoat stays smooth and doesn’t need replastering.
- Permits inside city limits go through the City of Clearwater; unincorporated addresses with a Clearwater mailing address go through Pinellas County. We confirm which applies.
- Permit office: City of Clearwater Planning & Development (inside city limits) or Pinellas County (unincorporated) [VERIFY: official permit page URL did not load from our checker; add link].
Pettit Fiberglass Pools is a factory-direct manufacturer and a licensed Florida contractor. Because the same company builds the shell and installs it, you get one warranty covering the work instead of a manufacturer and a separate installer pointing at each other.

Clearwater pool FAQs
Can you replace my old concrete pool in Clearwater with fiberglass?
In many cases, yes. Old pool removal and fill, then a new fiberglass shell, is a common project. We'll assess access and the existing deck on the site visit.
Do you also resurface concrete pools in Clearwater?
Yes. If replacement isn't the right fit, we also resurface and repair concrete pools.
How long does a fiberglass install take?
Site work, permits, and inspections set the overall schedule; the shell itself is usually set in a matter of days once the permit is approved.
Who issues the permit?
The City of Clearwater for addresses inside city limits, Pinellas County for unincorporated addresses. We handle the submission.
