Choosing a swimming pool company can be an overwhelming task. With all of the pitfalls that can happen in not only choosing your pool company but in the actual process of building, servicing or maintaining a swimming pool, there is a great need to choose the swimming pool company that is right for you.

There are a lot of swimming pool companies in Jacksonville Florida that are great companies but that doesn’t mean they will all be the right pool company for you and your family or for your particular swimming pool project.

Some of the questions you should ask yourself when you are choosing your swimming pool company are…

  1. How much communication do I want and how much do they typically give? Some pool owners don’t need or want much communication. They have done their research and they trust their decision that they chose wisely and they want to allow the professional to do their job and communicate when certain phases or performances have been completed; while other customers want to know every detail that they can so they can hold the professional accountable. If you have been involved with a contractor and you felt the need to know daily/hourly what was going on, you probably didn’t have the correct pool company for you. Not that they were a poor company, just that your styles didn’t match up.
  2. How close is their office to my home? Some pool companies will travel a long distance to build a swimming pool and sometimes that means when there is a small problem they may not be able to respond quickly. It is difficult to justify sending someone on a two or three hour round trip to check an underground pump or to check out a small leak, especially if they are busy.
  3. What product line does the swimming pool company use? Not all pool products are created equally. Just as in most things you can get the high end or low end product and that will drastically change not only the performance of the product but also the longevity. When choosing your pool company you should make sure they use a high end product that will last and not something you will need to replace once the one year warranty has ended.

There are also a lot of things that you can do online to make sure your swimming pool company is the correct company for you including checking for reviews, Facebook pages, Instagram pages, the swimming pool companies website, BBB, etc.  The internet can provide a great way to check on the overall happiness of a pool companies clients. Most pool companies will give you a referral list if you ask but they are certain to only give you the clients that are/were happy. These clients may not have had as difficult of a project as yours or it may be a relative of the company owner or employee. If you do get a referral list make sure to contact the previous client and ask them questions like, how was the overall process, would you use them again, did you feel that the company has high integrity?

If you are the type of person who doesn’t get to involved in projects you should try to choose a low key pool builder that matches your temperament and excitement level, if you are the type of person that is very detail oriented you may want to choose a pool company that not only shares that quality but communicates it to you regularly.

While choosing a swimming pool company in Jacksonville Florida can be a daunting task if you approach it the right way you can be certain to not only have an amazing swimming pool, but you can make sure that the process will be a smooth one.
