How To Build The Perfect Swimming Pool For Your Home

HOW TO BUILD
THE PERFECT
SWIMMING
POOL FOR
YOUR HOME

Having a swimming pool at home is fun for the
kids and it is a great way to cool down during
hot summer days. If you are considering
having a pool made in your backyard, then
here are the steps to building the perfect
swimming pool for your home.

STEP 1: PICK THE KIND OF
POOL THAT YOU WANT.
The most common kind of pool
is an inground pool and
inground pool has three main
types: concrete, vinyl-lined
and fibreglass.

TYPES OF POOL:
Concrete pools are the most popular as it is the most
durable type of pool. Their installation generally takes
longer than the others.

Vinyl pools are made of a preformed flexible liner that
fits into the hole and attaches to a reinforced wall frame
made of steel, aluminium or non-corrosive polymer. You
have to be careful with sharp objects when it comes to
vinyl pools as they may damage the lining.

Fibreglass pools are pre-moulded pools that have a super
smooth gel coat finish that is extremely durable and stain
resistant. Fibreglass looks sleek and it is easy to install,
however, this kind of pool has limited shapes available
and shipping is quite difficult.

STEP 2: COMPARE THE
PRICING OF THE POOL OF
YOUR CHOICE.
The pricing of a pool varies from one
place to another. It also depends on
the soil condition, circulation system,
accessories and, the size and shape of
the pool.

Make sure that you research on these
factors and compare the prices to
ensure that you are getting the
perfect pool at an ideal price.

STEP 3: YOU HAVE TO
CHECK WITH ZONING.
Much like home-improvement projects,
swimming pools are subject to building
and zoning regulations. This means
that you should apply for a building
permit and receive approval before
working on your pool.

STEP 4: YOU HAVE TO PICK
THE SITE OF YOUR POOL.
Picking a great spot for your pool is
just as important as the pool itself. It is
best to get an experienced pool
contractor for valuable insights.

STEP 5: CHOOSE A
CIRCULATION SYSTEM.
Your pool will be needing a circulation
system to ensure that the water is
clean and clear. You will be needing
both filtration and sanitization.

STEP 6: BUDGET WISELY.
Having a pool built does not come at a
cheap price. You need to consider the
landscape, buy accessories and invest
in pool maintenance when you think of
getting a swimming pool.

Building a perfect swimming pool for your
home can be quite a handful but it is not
impossible to achieve. Just don't forget to
observe safety in as much as you aim for
aesthetics.
