A Family Business, Run by Its Owners
Into H2O Pools & Spas, LLC is a family-owned custom pool construction company based in Cape Coral, Florida. From our office here, we design and build custom concrete pools and spas across Southwest Florida — Fort Myers, Naples, Sanibel, Captiva, and the rest of the region. New construction is the heart of the company, and we take on renovations, fiberglass pool removal and replacement, and commercial work as well.
The company was founded by Chris Doyle and is licensed as Into H2O Pools & Spas, LLC — CPC1458552. Chris brings over 45 years of hands-on experience in the pool industry to the business he started — and "hands-on" is literal. He still works on pools himself today, on the tools, the way he always has.
Chris and Nancy Doyle run Into H2O Pools together, as a team — on the jobsite and behind the scenes. We are both involved in every project, from the first design conversation through construction, inspections, and closeout, and our customers deal directly with the two of us as the owners. Between us, every part of your project — the build and the business of the build — stays with an owner.
The People Behind the Name
Chris Doyle — Founder & Owner
Chris brings over 45 years of hands-on pool construction experience, and together we remain personally involved in our projects, both on the jobsite and behind the scenes. Chris founded Into H2O Pools on that experience, and every one of our pools is built under Into H2O Pools & Spas, LLC — CPC1458552. He has not retired to a desk: on a current Into H2O Pools job, the founder is one of the people doing the work. That continuity — the same hands, the same standard, decade after decade — is what the company is built on.
Nancy Doyle — Co-Owner
Nancy works alongside Chris on every project, in the field and behind the scenes. She's on our jobsites and in the design conversations, and she helps carry each build from engineering and permitting through construction, inspections, and closeout. Chris and Nancy share the work and the responsibility — neither one hands your project off. When a customer calls Into H2O Pools, Nancy is very often the voice they get — at the estimate, during the build, and years later.

Chris & Nancy Doyle
We met in 1992, when Chris built a pool for the dentist Nancy was working for. We married in 1995, raised four daughters, and built our life around pools, family, and hard work.
We started out in Maryland. Florida was always the dream, and in 2002 we made it home. Chris went to work building commercial pools. Nancy built a career in real estate. And in 2014, we took the plunge and started Into H2O Pools & Spas.
Thirty-four years after that first pool, here we are — still together, still building, and still treating our customers like family.

Decades of Pool Building Experience

At the time, Chris was a project manager with Shasta Pools and Spas in Phoenix, Arizona. The article covers resort pool and water-feature work at the Fort McDowell Casino & Resort in Arizona. It reflects Chris’s earlier industry experience and was not an Into H2O Pools & Spas project.
Why Your Pool Contractor's License Matters
Choosing a swimming pool contractor is about more than comparing designs and estimates. Experience, qualifications, and accountability matter.
Into H2O Pools & Spas, LLC — CPC1458552 — holds a Florida Certified Pool/Spa Contractor license. It is a state-certified license, and Florida's certified pool/spa classification covers both residential and commercial swimming pool and spa construction — the custom concrete pools, infinity-edge and perimeter-overflow pools, and commercial pools we build.
We do not operate under a rented contractor's license. Chris brings over 45 years of hands-on pool construction experience, and together, Chris and Nancy remain personally involved in the work — on the jobsite and behind the scenes, from planning through construction and completion. Our customers work directly with the owners.
Before you hire any pool contractor, verify the license, ask who is actually responsible for building your pool, and consider the real experience and qualifications of the people overseeing the work. When you're making a major investment in your property, knowing who is qualified and accountable for your pool matters.
Featured on NBC2: Why Contractor Qualifications Matter
Our work was featured in an NBC2 investigation involving another company that used a photograph of a pool we built to advertise its services. The story raised an important issue for homeowners: understanding who is actually qualified and responsible for building their swimming pool.
Our Florida pool contractor license is held by Into H2O Pools & Spas, LLC — CPC1458552. His decades of hands-on experience, combined with our direct involvement as owners, are central to how we operate.

Customers Treated Like Family
"We are a family who treat our customers like family — honestly, some become family to us." — Nancy Doyle
That isn't a slogan written for this website; it's how the company has always run, in Nancy's own words. When you hire Into H2O Pools, you are not handed off to a sales rep, then a project manager, then a service department. Nancy and Chris personally handle every customer themselves — from the first design conversation, through the build or renovation, to the final walkthrough.
And it doesn't end at the walkthrough. Years later, when a question comes up about the pool we built you, you don't open a ticket — you call the same two people who built it, and they are still your contact. We believe the strongest relationships are built through communication, quality workmanship, and being there for our customers throughout the process. Some of them, over the years, have genuinely become family to us. We wouldn't run it any other way.
One Company, Start to Finish
Design & build under one roof
Your pool is designed and built by the same company — drawn around your home and your lot, then built as a custom concrete structure by the people who drew it. Nothing is handed to an outside builder.
Finished by hand
Every pool Into H2O Pools builds is finished in Florida Stucco, applied by hand — not sprayed — for a surface with real depth and character. It's a craftsman's finish, and it's the only way we do it.
30-day start-up
After completion, every pool goes through a 30-day start-up period, with the water and finish brought up to condition the right way before the pool is handed over.
Closeout & pool school
Closeout includes final inspections, permit closeout, a punch list, and warranty documentation — and pool school, so you know exactly how to run what we built.
Permitting & engineering handled in-house
Florida's permitting process is paperwork-heavy. At Into H2O Pools, permitting and engineering coordination are handled in-house as part of every project — that side of your project stays with the builder.
