So, you’ve decided to put in a swimming pool! Congratulations! A swimming pool can be an enjoyable addition to many different homes, especially for those of us who like the option of relaxing or exercising in the nice, cool water on a warm day. After the initial decision to put in a swimming pool, the next decision will be the most important one: who will be your swimming pool designer?
After you have gained some references from word of mouth or online reviews, or references supplied by the swimming pool designers, here are a few questions you can ask them when you call to ask about their experience with the swimming pool designers:
- Are you pleased with their services overall?
- Was there anything you were displeased with? If so, how was it resolved?
- Did they stick to their projected timeline? If not, how did they handle the change?
- Were permits and safety measures filed on time and built to code?
- What kind of pool, materials and features did you choose?
- Were they easy to communicate needs and wants with?
- Would you recommend them to someone else?
- If you were to go through the swimming pool design process again, would you still use this swimming pool designer?
This is just an example of questions you can ask a reference about a swimming pool designer. There are plenty of others that might be more tailored to your tastes, but we hope this has been a helpful starting point!
