Do you love your outside living space? Do you wish it was something… more? We have five reasons to get a pool house that we think you may find interesting and may help you decide to take the plunge! Many pool owners budget for their pool project and know what design and accessories they want, but they sometimes think, “I don’t want to spend pool money on a deck…” and they regret not having done so.
We caution our pool customers that they will spend as much time — more likely more time — around the pool than they will IN the pool. Because of that, you want to make sure you have a comfortable and welcoming space to relax whether you’re going to and from the pool or if you’re just lying back drinking wine with friends.

Five reasons to get a pool house
How you want to use your pool house will be a factor:
- Do you want it just to change into and out of bathing suits?
- Do you want it enclosed or open air
- Do you want it well equipped enough that you can have guests sleep over? You will need to check with local zoning official on the requirements for this new structure and whether it can be used as additional living space.
- Will it have a shower and/or laundry space?
- Do you want to use it to spend time in with friends and family once the weather turns? If you want to truly move your summer living to the out of doors, consider adding a kitchen inside the pool house or adjacent to it.
A pool house can be as elaborate or bare bones as you’d like it to be. Think about how you want to use it, what amenities you want in it and what budget you have for the project. Give us a call and let’s talk about the project and whether you want it adjacent to the pool or in a different corner of the yard.
