Are you ready to add an in-ground swimming pool to your home? There are so many benefits to owning a pool, both for your health and your property value. However, before you jump into pool ownership, you need to consider a few factors to make the most of your purchase. Here are three major considerations when planning for your new in-ground pool project.

  1. Type of pool. You have a few options when it comes to the type of pool you will build. While fiberglass pools are budget-friendly, they can be limited in size, shape and require access to the pool area for delivery. Cement or custom pools are more expensive, but have advantages in longevity and building options. The size and placement of your pool will impact the type of pool you may need.
  2. Pool equipment. What type of water system will work best for your needs? You need to think about the different filtration and sanitation options before you order your pool. Talk to your pool service about the different equipment available so you can make an informed decision.
  3. Additional features. It is simpler to have extra features included with your pool installation than to add them later. Consider whether you want interior lighting, a waterfall, spa or fire feature added to your pool area. These can be installed with your pool so that everything is done at the same time.

Building a new swimming pool is an exciting project, but you want to make sure you get the pool you envision. Find a quality pool contractor that has an excellent reputation for superior service to get the pool of your dreams.

Comments Off on How to Choose the Best Pool Design

If you are building a new pool to enhance your outdoor living space, there are many considerations. Choosing the basic type of pool, size, shape and many other factors come into play. Creating the best pool design for your home will require you to consider all these factors, along with style and budget. Here are some things to keep in mind while designing your pool.

Type of Pool

Are you still stuck on the basic decision of whether to use fiberglass shell or to have a cement lined pool? Fiberglass can be less expensive, but you will be limited to the sizes and shapes available. Cement is better for those that want a customized design or a larger pool.

Shape

You want a pool shape that works with your style and needs. Rectangle pools are perfect for contemporary styles. Kidney or round-edged pools can have a more natural effect and work with your landscape.

Style

Your pool will be the centerpiece of your outdoor space. You want a beautiful style that will enhance the value of your home. Some features that can help stylize your new pool include:

  • Water features like a water wall or waterfall
  • Fire features
  • Underwater lighting
  • Tanning shelves
  • Natural stone pool deck

There are so many options available to customize the design of your pool. From the surface material and pool deck to the many extra features you can add, you can make your pool unique and tailored to your style. Talk to your local pool designer to find out more about what is available to create the perfect pool design for your home.

Choosing Your Pool Style

Comments Off on Choosing Your Pool Style

Are you planning a new pool for your home? Whether you are replacing an old pool or adding a brand new pool to your home, you have many decisions to make. What size of pool do you need? What type of construction and shell do you want? Which pool surface will you choose? There are dozens of other factors to consider, but one of the biggest will be the style and shape of your pool. Here are a few options to consider as you plan your new pool.

Traditional Pool Styles

If you prefer straight, clean lines or geometrical design, you will want to choose a traditional pool style. This is a more formal option, with an elegant appearance. Pools with a traditional style are often rectangle and are offset by tile, stamped concrete or brick decks. Features tend to be simple and classic.

Natural Pool Styles

For those who want a more elaborate or non-conforming design, a natural pool style is a better choice. These have curved edges that work with the landscape, offering a softer, more natural look. Adding free-flowing waterfalls with natural stone for the decking are common, with plenty of foliage surrounding the pool for a tropical feel.

Exotic Pool Styles

If you want a dramatic look for your pool, consider some of the more exotic pool styles. Infinity or zero-edge pools are excellent for those with a beautiful view, emphasizing the natural backdrop of your home.

Talk to your local pool construction company about the different options available in your pool style to make your new pool the perfect fit for your needs. This is a big, important investment in your home and you should get the pool that best fits your style.
