Tales of Swimming Pool Ownership
"I can't afford a pool."
Owning a pool is not as difficult as think. When it comes to pricing you have various options.
Pool size, material selection, fixtures and accessories and the type of landscape
environment you select will determine overall cost of your project. You also reduce
expenditures in other areas as well, like no more watering of grass and plants, vacations
away from home, memberships of communal pools and other water recreation activities.
" Dirt and mess for months on end with strangers in and out of my yard."
20th Century Pools does not mass produce swimming pool projects, we only take on what we
can accurately handle and build in a suitable amount of time. Some companies try to build
inground swimming pools in volume this is where the Tale becomes a reality. Many of our
pool projects are completed in just a few months, the size of the project determines the
length of completion. Uncontrollable factors such as the weather or permit delays can affect
the building process. 20th Century Pools will communicate any changes in the project
schedule to you as soon as they arise.
" It takes lots of time and effort to maintenance a pool."
Everything has a maintenance factor, but with todays technology you will be pleasantly
surprised on how helpful a salt chlorinator, automatic pool cleaner, ozonator and or a in line
chlorine tablet feeder will help lower the maintenance time on your pool cleaning schedule.
Maintaining your pool is easier than if you were to personally maintaining your car or lawn.
Worst case scenario, you can always hire a professional Service Co. to do the job.
" How bout that electric bill, wont it skyrocket? "
Actually thats a good one, however with purchasing the latest technology like a multispeed
pump as opposed to a single speed pump you are assured to get the lowest electrical use
possible out of any swimming pool pumps being manufactured today. It is also greener for
the Environment. Depending on where you live and who your provider is, average estimates
show that utility bills only increase between $30 and $50 each month. Just think of the money
you easily spend on entertainment like dining out etc., I am sure you can relate to something
you will find to cut in order to compensate the difference.
"I'm scared of accidents or a drowning occurrence at my home."
Adult supervision, fences, pool covers, self-closing gates and technological pool alarms
offer excellent layers of protection for safety precautions. However, an experienced
swimming capable adult supervising at all times when your pool is being used is the key
ingredient to minimizing or eliminating any occurrence.
" Is my insurance and liability going to increase."
Everything changes and by having a swimming pool its another change with liability, it's like
anything else we as consumers select to own. Of course you should protect yourself, so
keep current with your insurance broker by shopping the rate to keep it competitive.
"Pools require constant repair."
If you do business with a true Custom Pool Builder like 20th Century Pools your swimming
pool equipment will be covered parts and labor for 3 years and your swimming pool structure
is for life. 20th Century Pools has been a licensed Swimming Pool Contractor in California
Since 1980. So, if you investigate and make your selection based on their credentials of
success in pool construction, you will have very minimum in repair activity. We have been
building all types of swimming pool designs for over 30 years now and we have not had a
structure crack repair to do thus far.
"Which pool builder should i select, I don't want to be caught in their business
Fraud."
You should always check a builder's professional credentials, ask for references and view
samples of completed work. A qualified experienced licensed pool contractor who personally
supervises your project from beginning to end is very important to the longevity of your
pool. So, if you are the type of person who is not impressed by the size of the company, all its
advertisements, free offers and sales presentations. Remember, the old school saying you
get what you pay for - it's true. Select the company based on their merit of success in pool
construction first and pricing second. You can always try to negotiate a price but, how do you
negotiate someones lack of consistency and actual experience.
"I've heard that pools detract from the appeal of a home in the real estate market
instead of adding to it."
Not true. Banks and other financial lenders often look favorably upon swimming pool
financing, considering it a "home improvement" that will increase both the current and
resale value of the home.
"Notice - Spend a little of your time and budget for the project first and foremost in
Designg, here's why"
If you really want to start completely in the most positive direction for your selection of a
swimming pool contractor, then follow this. Select someone you feel comfortable with who is
experienced in Designing pools and or spa backyards. Who ever is involved on your end
meaning husband, wife etc. make sure of their presence throughout meetings with the
design person you have selected. When all designing has been completed to your liking you
own the design work, now you can make copies ready to hand out. During the design time
you should be profiling the companies you want to consider to do the construction work. Set
appointments with these companies you have selected and discuss all points of value to the
plan set. Now they can get back to you with pricing of everything inclusive in print via email
or in person. This assures a more accurate way to price your project apples for apples.
