Installing a pool in your backyard is a big investment, and while there are many benefits to this outdoor feature, it’s important that you make sure you’re prepared for the pool installation and don’t go into the process unprepared. If you’ve recently decided you want to add a pool to your property, here are three of the most important factors to consider before the installation happens.
- Budget. Obviously, the cost of installing your pool will vary significantly depending on the amount of land preparation required to fit a pool, the size of the pool that you want, and more. Establishing your budget should be one of the first steps in a pool installation to make sure you have realistic expectations and boundaries for your future pool.
- Design elements. Your pool’s appearance plays a big role in how much you value and appreciate it, so make sure you know what you want your dream pool to look like. Do you prefer a rectangular shape or a rounded one? Would an additional water feature, such as a waterfall, make your pool perfect? Be sure to consider the layout and other additional elements when coming up with your pool design.
- Intended use. If exercise is the main motivator behind your pool installation, you’ll probably want a longer pool. If you want to be able to host pool parties, you’ll want a more spacious pool layout. Not every pool is perfect for every type of use, so don’t forget to factor in the intended use for your pool when preparing for your installation.
