Know how you want to use your pool Stop and think about why you’re installing a swimming pool. Is it for your kids? For entertaining? Is it an investment? Do you want to make an architectural statement? Answering these questions will help tell you what kind of swimming pool you want. A pool for kids might include a slide and a wading area. It probably doesn’t need high-end glass tile finishing or a vanishing edge. But if you want something that is as visually appealing as it is enjoyable to use, you might consider a built-in water feature and a negative edge.

Consider long-term costs Owning a swimming pool can be quite affordable. Upkeep, especially if you take a few energy-saving steps, can literally cost pennies a day. But, it’s best to have an idea of what those costs are. Factor in how much water it will take to keep your swimming pool full, cleaning and water maintenance costs, and any accessories (pool covers, filters, toys) you’ll need to purchase.

Establish a budget You probably already know what you’re willing to spend on a new pool, but it’s important to speak with your pool builder to gather more information and get a sense of what your project will cost. Your pool builder will be able to listen to what you want and give you an estimate. You may have to adjust your plans, or you may find you have the resources to add to your initial pool design. Either way, it’s crucial that both you and your builder know what your budget is from the start.

Check your building and regulation codes Your local pool builder can help you with this, but it’s also a good idea to know the rules yourself.
