Because San Antonio and Austin boast almost year-round, perfect swimming pool weather, swimming pool contractors and builders are a dime a dozen. And while it may be tempting to go with the best deal or price, buyer, beware.
Whether you’re a homeowner or a commercial property owner, a swimming pool is a huge investment – that’s why it’s extremely important to choose the right pool contractor to build your dream swimming pool – and that requires thorough research and planning.
POOL CONTRACTOR EXPERIENCE
This may seem like a no-brainer, but experience does matter. And while an established company is always something to look for, make sure the pool contractor has a full understanding of what you’re looking for, as well as your landscape – from pool design to functionality to even the type of soil and rock looming underneath the ground. Your pool contractor should have thorough knowledge and expertise, and discuss the best pool type and design with you.
SOLID SWIMMING POOL PORTFOLIO
In today’s world of websites at your fingertips, it’s relatively easy to search online pool builder portfolios. And while many are reputable, some may not be. That’s why we encourage people looking to build a pool to not only checkout the contractor’s online portfolio, but also a few in-person. A picture is worth a thousand words, but it simply can’t replace the real thing. And a reputable pool contractor will be more than happy to provide you with a few to see for yourself.
STRAIGHT-FORWARD AND PROFESSIONAL POOL BUILDER
What does this mean? Just like it sounds. A good pool contractor should offer you a complimentary quote and estimate, they should be on time and have an open-line of communication, they should discuss project timelines, options and warranties, and finally, they should be your partner. This is a lifetime investment – you don’t want a pool contractor who isn’t as invested as you.
