Top Pool Company Services

 

Swimming pool contractors are experts at designing and building pools, but they offer many other services as well. Here are some of the most common services they offer:

  • In-ground pool installation: They’ll help design your pool, perform all the difficult excavation and prep work in your backyard, and install your new swimming pool. 
  • Above-ground pool installation: A swimming pool contractor will level the area and prep the ground before installing your above-ground pool.
  • Hot tubs and spas: Pool contractors can also build or install a new hot tub or spa. 
  • Resurfacing: A pool contractor can resurface your swimming pool. They’ll sandblast the existing surface, add a bond coat, then install your tile, pebbles, or plaster.
  • Maintenance: Professional pool contractors can take on the task of salt cell replacement, pool inspection, filter cleaning, and minor repairs.
  • Cleaning: You don’t have to do the tedious work of removing leaves, cleaning the tiles, backwashing the filter or vacuuming the pool bottom yourself. A swimming pool contractor can take care of all that hard work for you.
  • Safety Fencing: Fencing around your pool is an important safety feature, and many places require it. A professional swimming pool contractor will install the fencing to keep your yard and pool safe.

Cost Guide for Installing, Maintaining, and Repairing Backyard Pools

 

The cost of having a swimming pool installed, resurfaced, or other service performed varies drastically at times. Part of this is because the cost for well-trained labor is more in some locations, and part of it is because the ground in some places is much rockier. Material costs vary as well, depending on what is needed and what you selected.

 

Here are some of the averages you can expect to pay for common services:

 

In-Ground Pool Installation Cost

  • Range: $30,798-63,049
  • National average: $38,638

Above-Ground Pool Installation Cost

  • Range: $2,200-7,814
  • National average: $4,124
 

In-Ground Pool Resurfacing Cost

  • Range: $2,219-31,359
  • National average: $7,853
 

Pool Cleaning (per year) Cost

  • Range: $1,103-3,021
  • National average: $1,955
 

Safety Fencing Around Pool Cost

  • Range: $1,943-9,343
  • National average: $5,607
 

Tips For Hiring A Swimming Pool Contractor

 

Follow these tips below to find the best swimming pool contractor for your project.

 

Check the Pool Contractor’s Reputation On Best Of The Web

One of the first things you should do when looking for a swimming pool contractor is check Best of the Web. Here you’ll find their contact information, operating hours, services they offer, and more. At Best of the Web you’ll get verified and pre-approved contractors that you can trust with your project.

 

Ask About Their License And Insurance

Swimming pool installers and contractors must have a license in most locations. Verify they have the proper license before hiring anyone. Also ask if they have insurance to cover damage to your property and injuries that may occur during their work.

 

Get Several Estimates from Pool Companies

You should make sure you get multiple estimates before you hire a pool contractor. Make sure they have details about the entire project and that it covers all of your specifications. If they don’t include something you asked for, ask them to redo their estimate to include it or select a different contractor. 

 

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Is It Cheaper To Install A Pool In The Winter?

 

Because of the lower demand for their services, many swimming pool contractors lower their prices in the winter. This makes having a pool installed much cheaper than having it installed at other times of the year, especially for an in-ground pool. It also allows time for your landscaping to grow before using your pool the next summer.

 

How Much Does A Swimming Pool Increase Home Value?

 

On average, an in-ground pool adds around 5-8% to the value of your home, but it depends on several factors. In some cities, a pool doesn’t increase the value much, if any. In some locations, it increases the value quite a bit. 

 

An above-ground pool typically adds very little value, and can even turn some buyers away. In-ground pools typically don’t hurt the value or turn buyers away, even in areas where they don’t add much value. 

 

Adding a swimming pool likely won’t add enough value to your home to cover the cost to install and maintain it. If that’s your motivation, there are other additions or remodeling projects that provide a better return on your investment.

 

Can I Install My Own Pool?

 

If you’re installing an in-ground swimming pool, leave it to the professionals. Unless you’re a contractor, you probably don’t have access to the equipment necessary or the training to excavate a site, meet all zoning requirements, watch out for existing pipes and power lines, and pour the concrete or set the steel frame properly. 

 

Some people can install an above-ground swimming pool themselves, especially if they have a relatively level yard already. Depending on the size, the project could be very simple or very difficult. The larger the pool, the more difficult it is to install yourself, so keep that in mind if you decide to go this route. Also, consider that a professional contractor may provide better results.
