Advanced Pool Care contractors, serving Memphis, Tennessee, explain concrete pools

If you’ve decided that you want to own a concrete aka gunite swimming pool, you have made one of the biggest decisions as it relates to becoming a swimming pool owner. The swimming pool contractors from Advanced Pools, Inc. explain that now that you’ve made the decision on the construction material here are some other items you will want to consider as it relates to your swimming pool project.

  1. Where do you want the pool? You will look at the existing landscaping, additional landscaping you want around the pool, proximity to the house, proximity to the neighbor’s houses and ease of ingress and egress. Ask your pool contractor for layout options for the pool project so you have an idea of what it will look like when it’s complete. Ask also for a bird’s eye view. lap pools
  2. Work with a contractor who is well-versed and experienced in the kind of pool you want — whether it’s gunite, a vinyl liner or a fiberglass pool. Some pool contractors focus on one building material while others are experienced in more than one.
  3. Pool accessories are those items you will choose as add ons to enhance the fun you have in your pool. A pool accessory could be a diving board, slide, sun shelves, hot tub or spa, rock waterfall, fountain, beach entry, automatic pool cleaner, in-pool lighting. There are also remote options for most all of your pool devices including the pump, heater and even the pool cover. .

Swimming pool safety is not an option when you become a swimming pool owner. There are items that are non negotiable when it comes to pool safety and that will likely be a pool fence. You may also want to add to the safety of the pool by adding alarms or pool safety covers as well.

Regardless of the pool building material you choose, the bottom line is, when you own a swimming pool you are adding to the fun you and your family have in the backyard staycation place.
