Consider Budget
When making plans for a backyard renovation, financial planning is crucial. This can narrow down your options in the types of pools, whether inground or above-ground and the size of your desired pool. While it’s important to be realistic when planning your backyard pool project, most swimming pool builders like Seaway Pools & Hot Tubs can help you find an option that suits your budget. Our selection of vinyl-lined swimming pools give homeowners throughout Southern Ontario a durable, long-lasting, and beautiful pool option that comes at a more affordable price point than some alternatives. We also offer stunning plunge pool installations that come at a lower price than traditional size swimming pools. Because they are smaller, plunge pools also require less investment for regular pool maintenance.
Site Selection
To make the most of pool season during the summer months, it’s smart to choose the best spot ahead of your pool installation. This includes sun exposure, minimizing debris, and adequate draining. Choosing an area of your backyard with a good balance of sun and shade can help regulate the pool water temperature. Also, be sure to consider the amount of trees and plants that surround the desired pool area. Though it's suitable for aesthetic purposes, having limited greenery near your pool can make your life easier in the long run without leaves falling into your pool. If you’re not sure what is the best spot for your backyard swimming pool, book a consultation with our experts who are experienced in landscape design as well as swimming pool installation.
Pool Design
Pool installation will proceed smoothly if you have a thorough and detailed plan for what you want. Contractors can have a clear grasp of your vision to execute it accurately. With the help of professionals at Seaway Pools & Hot Tubs, we can determine the shape, colour, size, depth, and all other aspects of your pool. Additionally, water features can enhance your backyard experience with waterfalls, slides for the kids, or built-in seating for a better lounging experience. Pool design is entirely customizable to your needs and wants, making it fit your lifestyle.
Maintenance and Upkeep
Owning a pool can be labour-demanding. Consider the maintenance supplies and services needed to maintain a clean and safe pool and open and close your pool during the summer months. It's essential to educate yourself to perform these tasks correctly to preserve the condition of your pool. Having a proper routine can help save you money and time. Maintaining water quality requires some amount of work, with chemical treatments, filtering systems, and heating systems. Inquire with Seaway Pools & Hot Tubs to become more educated on pool care.
Necessary Permits and Regulations
Research the rules and regulations for owning a pool in your city, as a breach of these rules can result in legal issues and fines. In Ontario, you are required to obtain a permit before installing a pool on your property. This happens after drafting up a plan for the pool's location and the different features included.
