Choosing A Pool Design

After finding out your budget the next thing that comes to mind is choosing the design. Do you want something big that can fit the entire family or something small enough to enjoy? Oval, square and custom pool designs are all great options that vary with your taste and budget. Also, keep in mind the square footage available in your backyard. You cannot go wrong with a fresh or saltwater pool. Saltwater pools are gentle on the skin and feel refreshing after some fun in the sun. Keep in mind that saltwater and freshwater pools require different maintenance.

Freshwater pools need chemicals like chlorine, pool shock, algaecides, clarifiers and sanitizers. On the other hand, saltwater pools need salt tablets, calcium, stabilizer and alkalinity. Maintenance on most freshwater pools will cost about $80 to $150 dollars a month depending on size. Maintenance on most saltwater pools will cost about $50 to $100 dollars a month depending on size. These are important pool planning and design tips to keep in mind.

Finding The Right Flooring

Regardless of what style of pool you want, please consider the flooring that will go along with it. A pool deck, concrete patio or walkway can bring a spark to your home. For concrete, there’s a lot of options to choose from. Colored concrete and stamped concrete are two beautiful options. See these examples of concrete in person before making a decision. One thing to remember is the overall color and theme of the backyard if you’re planning to add furniture.

Do you want flooring that feels open and welcoming or do you want to have a dark modern look? It all plays a huge factor in how your pool will look like. There isn’t a right answer just a preference to make your home beautiful!

Adding A Lounge Area Next To Your Pool

Also, do you love being outside with the family? Then, consider adding other pieces to your backyard to create the perfect puzzle. Adding a hot tub, fire pit or pool slide could be the right fit for you! Just imagine enjoying the hot tub for a perfect massage at night. Even adding an outdoor kitchen for those perfect grills is irresistible. With a few additional lounge area pieces to your luxury pool, your home will surely be the talk of the neighborhood.

When Is The Best Time To Build?

The best time to build a pool is whenever you’re ready! Whether it be in the summer or in the winter it all depends on when you’re comfortable. Home remodeling is no easy task so researching what you want before getting into it is always recommended. We want your pool installation to be the project of your dreams!
