The Best Outdoor Remodeling Projects for Spring: Water Features and Pools
Have you been wanting to build a pool in your backyard to make your home the ultimate hang out this summer? Maybe you have a pool or water feature, but it’s a little worse for wear. Perhaps you’re ready to upgrade that old above-ground pool with an attractive in-ground model? Are you looking to create a relaxing, tranquil backyard retreat where you can add a beautiful fountain or a koi pond? No matter what your reason is for wanting a new pool or water feature, spring is the best time of year for you to get your project started.
Signs That It’s Time to Remodel Your Pool or Water Feature
Like other parts of the home, pools and water features need to be remodeled periodically to keep them looking and functioning their best. Before you decide to revamp your existing pool or water feature, know the signs that a remodel is necessary.
Look for problems like stained or chipping plaster, chipping tiles along the edges, or missing tiles inside the pool or fountain. Deterioration of the pool deck, cracks in the pool deck and failing pool parts (like the pool pump) could also be an indication that your pool needs some work.
Maybe you have a pool but it’s not big enough for your needs, or it’s too big and you want part of your yard back? The only way to make this happen is to work with a team like ours that has experience and a portfolio of success with in-ground pools.
Reasons You Should Build a Pool or Water Feature
If you don’t have a pool but you love to swim, then this spring may be the season when you finally install a backyard pool. Why do it?
- Exercise. Installing a pool in your back yard gives you a chance to be more active on your own property.
- Enhanced beauty. Pools are beautiful, so having a blue, sparkling pool in your backyard makes your home more attractive overall.
- Entertain guests. Once the pool is installed in your backyard, you’ll have more places to entertain guests when you throw your famous summer parties.
- A place to relax. Imagine yourself lounging by the pool on a warm summer weekend, drink in your hand and not a care in the world. What better reason to install a pool could there be?
Maybe you don’t want a pool, but you do want a focal point in your garden. A water fountain, koi pond, or pondless water fall can give you a tranquil place to unwind and relax after a long day. It is also great for those that enjoy nature watching as water features tend to attract birds and other wildlife to your backyard.
Spring Is the Best Time to Get the Work Done
If you want to install a new pool in your backyard before the hot summer days arrive, then spring is the best time to get started. Not only will your family be able to enjoy your pool for the full season, but they’ll also have an awesome place to host parties and hang out with their friends. Installing a water fountain or other water feature this spring will also allow you more time to enjoy it before the cooler fall days roll in. Since spring is such a busy season (After all, everyone wants their pools ready for summer!), you’ll want to reserve your spot on our schedule ahead of time.
