5 Questions You Should Be Asking Your Swimming Pool Contractor
Installing a swimming pool is a big decision, so it's a good idea to have all your questions answered before pool installation. Asking your burning questions upfront allows you to properly plan for what’s to come. Pool companies in Toronto should be approachable and make you feel totally comfortable no matter what your pool-related question is, so ask away. Since your swimming pool contractors are the experts, they will be the most equipped to answer or provide suggestions for even your most minor concerns.
At Seaway Pools, we handle all your pool-related needs, including installation, maintenance chemicals, equipment, and even backyard landscaping and design. If you have any questions or concerns, the team at Seaway Pools is here to help.
As you anticipate your pool installation, there are likely a million different things crossing your ming, so we put together a list of 5 essential questions for you to ask your pool contractor.
How Long Will Installation Take?
Depending on how booked your contractor's schedule is, the type of pool, and your customizations, the duration of pool installation can vary. Ask upfront for an estimate of how long it will take for your swimming pool to be completed and have your pool company clarify what factors could lead to delays. This information will help you make decisions based on your expected timeline. Keep in mind, a more intricate pool and backyard design often results in a longer construction time, but it's well worth the wait for your perfect pool.
Can My Pool Be Customized?
Don't settle for a copy and paste pool. Find out how your swimming pool contractors can take a backyard swimming pool from generic to your own personalized paradise. At Seaway Pools, we are happy to have your design input. We can help you choose colours, stones, shapes, sizes, accents, and decor to customize your pool and make your backyard feel like yours, not a carbon copy of every other swimming pool in the Greater Toronto Area.
What Other Pools Have Your Installed?
Ask to see similar projects that they have done to ensure they can offer you the design you imagine. You don't want to end up with your backyard excavated only to find out your pool isn't really what you thought it was going to be. A good pool company is proud of the work that they've done, and has a portfolio or gallery of installations they've done that they're happy to share with you.
Can My Pool Be Energy-Efficient?
If you're concerned about the affordability of your pool's, it's environmental impact, or both, ask the contractor about alternative energy-efficient swimming pool and hot tub options. At Seaway Pools, we offer a selection of energy-efficient swimming pools and hot tubs that reduce your environmental footprint while also shaves some money off your energy bill.
Is My Budget Practical?
Before you begin construction on your swimming pool, you should consult with your pool contractors about what you expect from your budget. There should be transparency on both ends, so don't shy away from asking your pool company how your budget can be accommodated without sacrificing quality. Seaway Pools is stocked with a wide array of swimming pools, equipment, and maintenance options so you can choose the best fit for you and your budget.
