Spring is here, and we’ve already had days touching 80F this week! It is a reminder to all of us that the summers can get extremely hot and humid here in lower New York State. After all, it is already in the 80s in April. Making the most of the summer means staying cool on the hottest days but hopefully not lingering all day indoors. One of the best ways to pass the hottest summer days is at the pool. It’s even better when the pool is located in the backyard, and you don’t have to go far to cool off or relax and enjoy the sunshine. But who should you hire for a pool installation?

Installing a Pool is a Complicated Process

There is a lot more to getting a pool designed than digging a hole in the ground and filling it with water from a hose. There are a lot of legal building requirements, insurance requirements, testing requirements, and others; that must be conducted before ground can be broken. Special care and planning must be undertaken when connecting a new area of your property to utilities like water and electricity.

There are severe financial liability and safety concerns if starting a project like this without proper building permits. If a worker begins digging in your backyard, but no signals have been put on the grass where power lines run, it could lead to a fatal accident. So, as you can see, there are real risks when working with utilities without proper permits, inspections, and experience. You could have a severe lawsuit on your hands for starting something like this without going through the appropriate local legal channels.

Choosing Pool Options Should be Fun and Constructive

When you decide to go forwards on a pool installation, you’re ready to start brainstorming ideas about how your pool should look, the size, and other items. There are a few simple ways to get pool ideas:

  • Look around the neighborhood. Is there any home with a pool that you really like in the area? Can you turn to something specific, like the shape of the pool, outdoor structures, or poolside lighting that you like? If yes, take a picture and bring this to your contractor so they know what you’re referring to when discussing options.
  • Search online. It’s easy enough, but you can go to Google.com and do an image search for “in-ground pool idea,” “great looking pools,” “best home pool options,” and related searches to find a huge amount of real-life pool examples.
  • Watch YouTube. There are a lot of channels about home improvements or pool designs, options, and costs. So do a simple YouTube search for pool ideas, and you’ll quickly have a bunch to watch.

The idea is simple. Keep your eyes open and think about what you want in a pool. Do you want it long enough to do some laps for exercise, or would you prefer an attached hot tub? What about a water slide? These are all questions you should look to answer, but you should have a budget before you start looking for ideas.

Contacting the Right Pool Contracting Company

Working with a company to do all aspects of a new pool installation can be tricky. You need a qualified and experienced team (that goes without saying), but also easier to work with a single contractor that can work with the utilities necessary to install a pool. Other contractors use 3rd party companies for water and electricity, which can be a logistical nightmare to getting things done on time. If you can’t get the utility guy out to give the ok, you can’t break ground, and if you can’t get the water inspector out, you can’t install the pool. Most contractors don’t do this.

However, at Pro Cut Landscaping, we do all the pieces in-house. Utilities are covered; we’ve specialized in pools for over 20 years. For the Best Pool Installation Rockland County NY, look no further than right here over 30 years of servicing the neighborhood.
