Why fiberglass works for Homosassa homes
- Like the rest of Citrus County, Homosassa sits on limestone karst. Florida Geological Survey and Florida DEP materials describe sinkholes as a common karst feature in west-central Florida. No pool is sinkhole-proof, but a one-piece fiberglass shell has some flex and isn’t a rigid, jointed structure. Talk to your insurer about sinkhole coverage before you build.
- Homosassa is unincorporated, so pool permits go through the Citrus County Building Division (Lecanto). The county requires a building permit for swimming pools/spas with 24 inches or more of water depth and a pool-barrier affidavit under Florida’s Residential Swimming Pool Safety Act.
- Rural and semi-rural parcels often use wells and septic, which need setbacks from the pool — we locate them on the site visit.
Pettit Pools is the only licensed Florida contractor that is also a fiberglass pool shell manufacturer in Florida (Florida Certified Pool/Spa Contractor license CPC1459625). 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.

How a Homosassa pool project works
- Free site visit: we measure, check access, setbacks, utilities, drainage, and flood-zone notes if they apply.
- Choose your model: size, shape, depth, steps, and add-ons like a spa.
- Permits: Pettit prepares and submits the pool permit for the homeowner with the Citrus County Building Division (and we help with HOA paperwork if needed). Across Citrus and our other counties, permits average 4–6 weeks once the application is complete.
- Excavation and set: our crew digs, sets the factory-built shell, plumbs, and backfills.
- Deck, equipment, and inspections: decking, equipment hookup, barrier/safety features, and final inspection.
- Startup: we fill, balance, and walk you through care. Ongoing pool service is available.
