Lehigh Acres is the largest of the eastern Lee County communities and one of the fastest-growing housing markets in Southwest Florida. Originally platted in 1954 as a master retirement community, Lehigh saw a massive build-out wave in the early-to-mid 2000s, another wave after the 2008 reset, and continuous new construction through the present. The pool population here is mostly inland freshwater cage pools running chlorine tablets - very different from the saltwater canal pools that dominate Cape Coral. That changes the right finish, the right tile, and the right start-up chemistry for a Lehigh resurface.
We install every common pool finish and handle every common pool repair across Lehigh Acres:
Most Lehigh Acres pools are inland, screened, freshwater, and run on chlorine tablets rather than salt chlorine generators. That alone changes everything about the right finish recommendation. Plaster, which gets eaten alive on Cape Coral salt pools, lasts a comfortable 8 to 10 years on a properly started Lehigh freshwater pool. That is why plaster is the right call for many Lehigh homeowners who would never put plaster in a salt pool. The sandy fill subgrade across much of Lehigh Acres also drives a different crack pattern - we see more linear settlement cracks across the bond beam and fewer of the storm-driven cracks common closer to the coast.
Lehigh Acres pools also typically sit on much larger lots than Cape Coral pools, which means more deck square footage, more lanai screen footage, and often more sun exposure. Cool deck coatings are in heavy demand here for owners wanting to take the heat off bare poured concrete decks. Hurricane Ian damage was less severe in Lehigh than on the coast, but inland tornadoes and high winds still cracked plenty of shells in September 2022 and the repair work continues.
