How Do I Start Planning My Pool Installation?

The best way to start is to talk to friends that own a pool and look at websites like houzz, Instagram, etc. for inspiration. Once you have a basic idea of what you want, contact several contractors to set up a time to speak to them about the project. While we recommend speaking to multiple contractors, it rarely is a good idea to work with more than 3 or 4 for a bid. Spend time researching them, review their projects, and focus on the best fit for you and your family.
