5 Things to Keep In
Mind When Designing Your Pool
Above ground or
in-ground? Concrete or fiberglass? When it comes to pools, homeowners are
definitely spoiled for choice. Think about:
1. What size and depth you want the pool to be
2. What
shape the pool should be (rectangular or a more custom design/shape?)
3. How the
pool will be used
The best way to start
generating ideas of what your “dream pool” will be is to check out our
portfolio featuring our past pool designs and creations. Write down the shape,
size, location, and any other features or design elements that you like.
Ideally the pool
should be close to the home and in a sunny spot with no trees nearby. Keep in
mind that while a flat space may be the easiest place to put a pool, the land
you choose does not necessarily need to be flat for pool installation.
Also commonly referred
to as a “restrictive covenant”, many homeowners are surprised to find that the
property they bought actually has limitations on what can and cannot be built
on the property, which may include a pool. Make sure you’re legally allowed to
build a pool, or contact a lawyer about changing the deed restriction.
Depending on the
style, shape and size of your pool, the amount that you can expect to pay for
your pool can widely vary. The two most important things to think about are:
4. What do I need to pay for now (during pool
construction)
5. What
can I add on later
Also consider how many
additional features added now may save you in expenses if they were to be added
later. For instance, a gazebo can easily be added any time, but underwater
lighting - which can also be added any time – is more expensive if added after
the pool’s already built rather than while the pool is being constructed.
Once you have a clear
vision and expectation of what you want from your pool, the final step is to
schedule an appointment. Your pool company will survey your grounds and share
their own tips and suggestions to make sure that you get exactly what you want
and at a price you can afford. Call
