Consider Your Pool Builder

When working with a custom pool builder or contractor, there are a wide variety of topics you need to discuss and agree upon before moving forward with your pool installation. For starters, you’ll need to discuss budget, timeline, and project expectations early on in order to make sure everyone aligns on expectations once construction begins.

Be sure to also check out online reviews of their company, as well as if they have a photo gallery featuring pictures of their previous work.

Depending on where you live, there may be easements near or around your property that could affect custom pool installation, which will also need to be reviewed and discussed with your pool builder.
