How do you find a good pool builder? Compared to most purchases or improvements that you make to your home having a new swimming pool installed poses more challenges (and more risk) due to the size and scope of the project. In addition to being a large, complex and challenging technical project there is also less oversight and trade protections for "swimming pool builders" than most other trades or professions. This can lead to an unstable industry where less-than-qualified individuals can present themselves as qualified pool builders and it can be rather difficult as a home owner to discern the good builders from the bad builders. The tips in this video should help with determining a good potential pool installer from one that you should probably avoid.
It can not be overstated how important it is to avoid the wrong swimming pool builder. A new pool installation is a massive luxury with a huge price tag attached to it and the quality of the initial build will determine whether your pool lasts and operates well and with efficiency...or potentially you end with a swimming pool nightmare like situation. Building an inground pool is very similar to the technical nature of building a house. Foundation, concrete, electrical, gas, steel, plumbing and landscaping are all parts of the pool installation process and that does not even take into account the water filtration system that pools need. If you want more detailed information on how to avoid inexperienced or underqualified pool builders you can read this article about how to avoid bad pool builders.
