How Do I Get Started Building A Pool?

09/21/2018 | Categories: Swimming Pools

In a world where comparing costs can be as easy as a few clicks, many homeowners interested in building a backyard pool start their search by requesting online bids from a variety of pool construction companies. While this may sound logical, it can actually get you off on the wrong foot because it might result in an unrealistic expectation. To get an accurate and reliable quote it’s important to have a pool company come to your property for an on-site consultation. They should inspect the proposed building site and listen to your wants and needs before quoting you a price.  

 

Know What You Want

By scheduling an on-site consultation before you begin to seriously think about your budget, you’ll be able to get a better feel for what you actually want out of your new pool. Maybe even more important, you’ll learn from your pool expert what makes the most sense logistically (and economically) based on the characteristics of your property.

An on-site consultation will also help you picture in your mind what your new outdoor living space will look like. You’ll also be able to get an idea of what features and designs most interest you and decide what’s an absolute must and what’s a would-be-nice. Also, it’s important to have a trusted and established pool company that won’t pressure you into spending more than you want. Talking face-to-face will help you “get a feel” for the pool company.

 

Ask About Qualifications

It’s also very important to choose a pool company that’s affiliated with major industry and trade groups that hold its members to a high standard of quality. At Sunshine Fun Pools we are proud to be:

• A Pool and Spa News Top 50 U.S. Pool Builder
• An APSP Regional Design Award Winner
• A Certified Building Professional (CBP)

 

A Long-Term Relationship

Regardless of how much it costs to build your pool, if you sign a contract with a pool builder who isn’t a good fit, then you’re bound to have a negative experience. The contractor should listen and understand your vision for your backyard, while also actively contributing expert advice or constructive suggestions to improve the finished product or help you spend your budget more effectively.

Choosing a pool builder with an excellent reputation built over a long period of time will ensure that you have a reliable partner for years to come.
