Custom pool and spa with travertine deck, iridescent glass tile, screen enclosure, and full equipment package. Complete construction photo timeline from original site through final walkthrough.
This Wellen Park project is a complete new pool and spa construction on a residential lot within one of Southwest Florida's fastest-growing master-planned communities. Pool Creations managed every phase of the project: from HOA submittal and permit application through final inspection and owner walkthrough.
The pool features a custom shape with a sunshelf, an attached spa with iridescent glass mosaic tile on the exterior walls, travertine coping, and a full travertine paver deck. A screen enclosure covers the entire pool and deck area. The equipment package includes a variable-speed pump, cartridge filter, heater, salt chlorinator, and automation controls installed on a dedicated pad.
The photo timeline below documents all 12 construction phases in sequence: from the original site through the completed project.
Field experience behind the finished work
These details explain what the team encountered, why key selections were made and how the documented project moved from site conditions to a completed result.
The new pool and spa were built inside a master-planned Wellen Park community. The work required HOA coordination plus careful sequencing for the shell, plumbing, screen-cage footers, bonding, decking, equipment and landscape restoration.
Iridescent glass mosaic tile emphasizes the spa and waterline, travertine provides a continuous coping and deck surface, and the dark interior finish supports the project's deeper water-color design.
Pool Creations managed the HOA submittal and the applicable Sarasota County or City of North Port permit process, then coordinated the enclosure footers, bonding and conduit before the later finish stages.
The project progressed through final inspection and owner walkthrough, resulting in a completed pool and spa with a screen enclosure, water features, automation, finished landscaping and a documented 12-phase photo record.
