How to Choose a Reputable Pool and Spa Builder (and not get ripped off! )

Make sure the builder has a place of business

Reputable companies have a showroom with working displays of the pools, spas and equipment they sell and install. Unfortunately anyone can say they build pools. Hiring someone who will do the job for less could be very risky. If they don't show up to do or complete the job, how will you find them?


Will they do backyard consultations?

They will come to you. A reputable builder will take the time to understand what you want in a pool. They ask a lot of questions. They make sure you understand the process. They guarantee their work. Most of all they are NOT high pressure salesmen.


What is their reputation like?

Can you get references? Have they been in business for a long time? Do they service what they sell or do they subcontract the labor? Installing the pool or spa is just the first step in a long term relationship with a reputable pool and spa builder.


Are they insured?
Do you want someone working in your backyard that has NO insurance?


Good builders have nothing to hide.
