The 2026 rate table for Orlando
These are the working ranges we quote against across Orange County — printed on our Travertine Pool Decks in Orlando page as well, because a price you can’t see before calling is a negotiation, not a price.

What moves the number in Orlando specifically
Orlando — served selectively: College Park and Delaney Park bungalow blocks, Baldwin Park’s code-governed new urbanism, MetroWest’s golf corridor, and Conway’s mid-century lake neighborhoods.
Two local realities shape budgets here more than any brochure factor. The first is the ground itself: Older Orlando neighborhoods hide clay lenses, buried debris, and mature root systems under original slabs — tear-outs get probed and re-based, because pouring over an unknown is how sixty-year-old problems become new ones. The second is process: City of Orlando permitting; Baldwin Park and several districts enforce design codes on visible hardscape. Both get resolved before our proposals are priced — probing during the site walk, submittal documentation with the paperwork — so the number you sign is the number you pay.
Stone grade and thickness, sand-set vs. mud-set system, and coping length move the number. Remodels over existing concrete (mud-set) save demolition but demand a sound slab — the inspection decides which system your deck qualifies for.
A worked example
Take an 800 sq ft travertine surround — the most common request we price in Orlando. At 2026 rates it lands around $17,500–$28,000 installed, coping included. Your footprint scales that window directly: measure, multiply, and you have an honest planning budget before anyone visits.
How to read competing bids
Travertine sealed with a film-forming product clouds and traps moisture. If the bid’s sealer line doesn’t say ‘breathable’ or ‘penetrating,’ ask why.
Our advice, even if you never call us: require every bidder to put the system in writing — base depth and compaction method, reinforcement or edge restraint, joint plan, drainage slope, and cure or set protection. The cheapest bid that specifies all five is a real competitor. The cheapest bid that specifies none of them is the most expensive surface you can buy; you just pay the second half later.

Questions we hear on this topic
Why do travertine pool decks quotes vary so much in Orlando?
Because the visible surface is identical on every bid and the invisible system is not. Stone grade and thickness, sand-set vs. mud-set system, and coping length move the number. Remodels over existing concrete (mud-set) save demolition but demand a sound slab — the inspection decides which system your deck qualifies for. When two numbers sit far apart, the difference almost always lives underground — in base depth, compaction, and what happens when demolition finds a surprise.
Does Orlando itself change the price?
Locally, yes, in two ways. First, ground: Older Orlando neighborhoods hide clay lenses, buried debris, and mature root systems under original slabs — tear-outs get probed and re-based, because pouring over an unknown is how sixty-year-old problems become new ones. Second, process: City of Orlando permitting; Baldwin Park and several districts enforce design codes on visible hardscape. Neither has to inflate your budget — but a bid that ignores both is planning to discover them as change orders.
How do I budget confidently before the site visit?
Measure your footprint (length × width), multiply by the range that matches your scope in the table above, and treat the result as your planning window. Then get the written proposal: ours arrives within one business day of the walk, line-itemized, so the final number is a decision you make — not a surprise you absorb.
