Reasons to get a pool in 2018

Do you want a swimming pool? Have your kids been begging you for a pool for years and now it’s time? If you and your family are still in decision-making mode and are still on the fence as to whether a pool is worth the investment, here are a few items to consider.

  1. Splashing around in the pool is exercise disguised as fun. It’s also a great place to spend time with your family than planted on the couch in front of the television or playing on the smartphone.
  2. Whether you host a swimming pool party or an outdoor party and if you’re already known for the wonderful parties you throw, adding access to a swimming pool into the mix will amp the fun up to eleven!
  3. Spending time in the pool or in your outdoor living space with your family is an ideal way to strengthen family bonds and make memories that will last a lifetime. Even if you’re not in the swimming pool, spending time out of doors, away from the screens and distractions of the house is a great way to reconnect with your children in this busy world in which we live.
  4. Adding an in-ground swimming pool to your property may just increase the resale value of your home. You would need to speak with a realtor to determine whether this is true in the area of the country in which you live. If your neighbors don’t have pools and you do, it could be a selling point. If your neighbors have a pool and you don’t, you could be missing out on potential buyers. If you’re just considering a pool based on perceived potential resale value of your home, talk wtih a realtor before you make a decision this big.
  5. Friends and co-workers may only have a week or two for the family vacation, but if you have your own swimming pool, your backyard becomes staycation central and every night after work and every weekend is a vacation.

If a swimming pool is on the family radar for 2018, now is the time to talk with a potential swimming pool contractor and get the project underway. The sooner you start it, the sooner your pool will be available for your family to use and you won’t lose another summer without having a pool of your own.
