Your new pool will provide years of enjoyment and entertainment for your entire family, but the people you choose to complete your design and installation will have a significant impact on your enjoyment of this fun feature. Installing a pool takes a combination of training, experience and design savvy – and anyone who does work on your property needs to be both insured and licensed as well.
5 Things to Look for in a Pool Installation Company
Training and Experience
There’s more involved than digging a hole; your installer needs to have the right training to work with the materials and design you’ve chosen. They also need to have some experience; you don’t want to be anyone’s “first” pool, because mistakes can and do happen with inexperienced installers. Concrete, landscaping, pool and spa experience and training are all needed to successfully complete a pool installation.
Transparency
Your installer should be able to walk you through each step of the project so you know what will be happening; you should also know how much your project will cost, the materials used and any warranties offered.
Flexible Scheduling
If your chosen installer is overbooked, you may run into delays. Make sure your provider is able to handle your job along with their other workload and that you get a definite timeline for the project.
Licenses and Insurance
Anyone working on your property needs to have insurance; this protects you if they damage your property or if anyone is injured on the job site. The provider you choose should also have an up to date license and be legally able to work in your area. A provider that does not have these things is already cutting corners on their business – there is no way of knowing what corners he will cut on your project.
Local References
Can you see examples of the installer’s work? Can you speak to some recent clients? You can get a good idea of what the team is actually like to work with by speaking with others who have already used them. A good pool installer will be happy to share references of delighted past clients and will be happy to show off completed projects.
