FAQs When Looking for an Inground Pool
What will my swimming pool cost?
The cost of a swimming pool has many variables. The price will depend on shape, size, and model of the pool you choose and also the pool style. (ie: fiberglass, vinyl, or concrete) All price quotes are given according to theses perimeters and other possible additions chosen to purchase with the pool. Examples of additions are salt system, upgraded pump or filter, deck jets, slides, diving boards, etc. Also prices can increase with the addition of pavers or stamped concrete compared to the broom finish concrete around the pool.Our prices are almost completely inclusive from permitting to concrete. Parrot Bay’s pricing begins at $23,000 for our inclusive packages. Of course you could always by a pool kit or fiberglass shell separately.
What do I do with my pets while the inground pool is under construction?
Your backyard will be full of dirt during construction. It is a good idea to either board your pets or take them out front on a leash while we are working.
What about my pets and safety once I have a pool?
If one is worried about pets getting into the pool a safety cover is a possible option along with choosing a fiberglass pool instead of a vinyl. A vinyl pool with pets is a concern do to their claws tearing the liner trying to get in and out of the pool if they have not been trained to use the steps.
Will you repair my irrigation system if it is hit during construction?
All irrigation system repairs are at the owner’s expense. We will cap any lines we hit and ask you to hold off on any repairs until we have completed the dig. We are happy to provide a price quote for fixing it once we know the extent of the breakage.
How long will it take to build my inground pool?
We estimate a time frame of 15-21 working days pending on weather and inspections being completed. Also any other delays can occur from the home owner if there are change orders or payment setbacks made and causing the job to be placed on hold.
What are the fencing requirements around an inground pool?
Fencing requirements may differ from county to county but the general requirements are that the fence must be a minimum of 48” tall with no gaps greater than around 3”. The fence must enclose the entire pool and have self-closing and self-latching gates. All gates are required to open away from the pool.
Do I need to be home during construction?
During the construction it is not required for the home owner to be present but it is appreciated to have the availability of communication at all times in the case a situation arises that you need to be aware of.
How can I pay for my inground pool?
There are several options for the payment of a new pool. You can pay by a certified check at the times set up on your payment schedule. We also offer a couple different finance companies you can apply to, or you could finance it through your bank.
