Larsen’s Pool & Spa was founded 18 years ago to solve a common problem in pool construction: projects that lose direction, run over budget, or fall short of expectations. From the beginning, the company has operated by a simple principle often referred to as the Golden Rule — treat clients the way you would want to be treated yourself.
That principle continues to guide how every project is planned and executed across the Greater Tampa Bay Area, whether building a new shotcrete pool or renovating an existing one.
The foundation of Larsen’s Pool & Spa was shaped long before the company officially opened its doors. Owner Eric Larsen entered the swimming pool industry at a young age, working in operational roles focused on purchasing, materials, and logistics. That early experience provided a clear understanding of how pool companies function behind the scenes and how poor planning or loose controls can derail a project.
