Think you’re about ready to “take the plunge” and invest in a pool? Whether you’re looking into building budget pools or ritzy luxurious pools, these are our top 3 tips that will help you keep your swimming pool budget on track:
Chances are you’ve been dreaming of building a pool for years and are only now finally getting around to making that dream a reality. Before worrying about your budget, write down everything that you want from your pool and patio area (i.e. style of pool, pool and deck designs, materials, water or fire features, etc.). Check out pictures of cool pools and create a “look book.” Even if you budget may not be flexible enough to accommodate everything on your wish list today, you can add these things on later.
Are you on the market for above ground budget pools? Or is a more expensive inground pool what you seek? And if you choose inground, what type?

When you have that settled, dig a bit deeper and think about:
You’ll be able to find a number of prices online, but the best way to get the most accurate estimate is to contact a seasoned custom pool builder. He or she will be able to go through the items on you wish list as well as view the space where your pool is to be built and provide you with a good estimate of how much you can expect to spend on your brand new pool.
