| One thing about a seasonal industry, there is always an opportunity to get more bang for your buck when business slows down. Good pool builders have great employees and subcontractors that they want to keep busy all year long. So when the summer season starts to wind down, you will start seeing advertisements for “Off Season Sales” to give buyers incentives to think about building their swimming pools during their slower season.Besides discounts, there are other advantages of building a swimming pool in the fall and winter. Pool Builders are less busy and that means that they will probably pay more attention to detail when building your pool then when they are in the middle of their peak season and trying to work on multiple projects at the same time. The best pool builders that have been in business for many years and employ the best craftsmen will have consistent high quality workmanship throughout the year. Each stage of construction with have a crew that specializes in that phase and all crews are tasked to perform at a high level for every job to maintain their good reputation in the industry. There are also good smaller pool builders who do not have their own employees but have good, long-term relationships with their trade partners and get the same quality of workmanship as the pool builders with in-house crews. These pool builders are especially concerned about keeping their subcontractors busy during the slow season and quite often will ask them to lower their prices in order to offer more incentives to buyers. Another reason for building a pool in the off season is that there is no urgency to get the project completed. Pool construction typically takes six to eight weeks. If you wait for the first day of warm weather to call pool builders for bids, chances are you are going to miss out on some of the swim season. When your neighbors that built in the off season are swimming and entertaining their friend’s poolside, you will have tractors, dirt and workmen in your backyard. If you have kids, you can bet that they will be anxious and asking you every day when the pool is going to be finished. If it is cloudy and cool when you are having your pool built, chances are that won’t happen. When your swimming pool is done, you are going to want to do your landscaping. Nothing looks better than beautiful plants and trees around your pool and completes the whole ambiance of your vacation backyard. If you do your landscaping in the fall, you will have more mature, lush plants in the spring. Quite often good pool builders will have landscaping crews and will include this service in their bids. If they don’t, they will most likely have a company that they can refer you to. Since their reputations are on the line, you can be assured that the company that they refer you to is a good one. |
