New Swimming Pool in New Braunfels, Spring Branch & Boerne

Choosing to add a New Braunfels swimming pool to your backyard living environment is a big decision for many people. Not only do you need to decide what type of pool to get and where to locate it, you also need to decide when to build your swimming pool. For many people, the best time of the year to build a swimming pool is in the winter and for good reason.

One of the best reasons to build your swimming pool in the winter is to have your pick of the local pool experts. Because most people don’t think about building a pool until the weather turns warmer, the best New Braunfels pool builders tend to get booked up through the spring and summer. If you choose winter to start calling and talking with builders, you will likely find more schedule flexibility, and you won’t have to settle for the only company who has an opening during the busy season. Your builder may also have more time for your winter project due to a lighter workload, which can translate into better customer service and more attention to detail.

In addition, if you build your pool during the winter, it will be all ready to enjoy as soon as the weather permits! Waiting until spring to get going on new pool construction can mean missing out on a significant chunk of the swim season. With busiest season for the pool industry being summertime, construction schedules often drag out enough that customers who begin their project in late July or August may find themselves with only weeks to enjoy their pool before cool weather makes swimming impractical.

Perhaps the best reason of all for choosing to build in the winter is that you may be able to negotiate a discount from your pool builder. When business is slower, many companies offer sales or other discounts to motivate prospective pool buyers. Also, vendors and subcontractors are often hungry for winter work, and are willing to price their materials or services more competitively, creating savings that your pool company may be willing to pass on to you. Although you should not let price be the only factor when choosing a pool builder, savings can definitely be a tempting reason to build during the winter.
