Having a swimming pool in Central Florida is a considerable investment. Which is why you should ask a few questions before hiring a company. The last thing you want is sub-quality construction and problems down the road.
These questions can help determine if a pool builder is competent and committed to quality customer service.
What type of experience does the swimming pool contractor have?
Experience is crucial, especially here in Central Florida. Ask the contractor how long they have been in business, their education, training, and knowledge of the latest swimming pool techniques and trends. Look at their previous work, look at the quality.
Is the swimming pool company insured and licensed?
Licensing ensures the contractor satisfies the industry standards and required training. Always ask about the company’s insurance, especially general liability and worker’s compensation. You don’t want to end up having to pay the expenses for damage or injury that happens on your property
Are you able to look at their past work?
Do they have any reviews online, word of mouth can go a long way. For instance, look at this recent review for Dreamscapes Pools and Spas, “True Professionals, This was the best quote i received & they delivered, My backyard is now an extension of my house with a waterfall, pool, spa, & decking. For meeting all our agreed deadlines, I will always give an excellent rating.”
If it Sounds too Good to be True, it Probably Is.
Price isn’t everything. Have you ever bought something and thought it was a fantastic price just to get home and realize why it was so cheap. Quality swimming pool construction is an investment that can last for decades. The fact is, you get what you pay for. So, if you call around and find a pool builder that is significantly lower than anyone else’s, it should raise some red flags.
Don’t Fall for High Pressure Techniques
Don’t fall victim to scruples salespeople. Guard yourself against those who want you to make a decision on the spot. They have perfected the tactics preventing homeowners to take the extra time to do some research over or talk it over with their spouse.
