Do I need a fence around my pool?

• <div><p>Each state has its own regulations about pool fences, and laws to protect both swimmers and pool owners. Before installing a pool, you’ll need to research what the pool laws in your state, city, and county are to ensure that you’re adhering to the legal regulations. Inground pools typically need to have a fence around the entirety of them, but the rules regarding above-ground pools are less stringent. A good rule of thumb is to always have a fence around your pool to ensure safety for all. </p></div>

What should I consider when deciding to build an in-ground pool?

• <div><p>There are many factors to consider when building an in-ground concrete pool. This includes the pool’s primary purpose (relaxation or exercise) if you live in a warm or cold climate (how often it’ll be used), and if you have the budget for chemical treatments and pool maintenance. In-ground pools are often more costly than aboveground pools, but they’re considered more luxurious and hold more value.</p></div>

Q: What should you not do when building a pool?

• <div><p>Most importantly, you should never cut corners when building a pool. Whether it&rsquo;s an in-ground or aboveground, poorly constructed pools are dangerous to both the swimmers and your property. Leaks can even lead to home foundation damage. While you can DIY smaller elements of pool installation, always hire a contractor to oversee the process. </p></div>

Q: Are there eco-friendly options for building enclosures?

• <div><p>Sustainable materials and energy-efficient designs support greener construction options.</p></div>

Q: What is the safest pool fence?

• <div><p>The safest pool fence depends on what you&rsquo;re trying to protect against. If you&rsquo;re concerned about children and pets, a fence with gaps between or under the material isn&rsquo;t advisable, as they could get through it. Mesh fences tend to reach the height requirements needed for pool fence safety, although they are not the most durable. Solid fence types, such as wood, concrete, or stone have the best chance of protecting the surface area around a pool, so long as they are high enough to discourage anything, or anyone, from climbing over them. </p></div>

The installers were courteous and great to work with. We had over 30 windows installed, which obviously took some time. It was obvious towards the end that they were getting pressure from the top to get done. There were some issues with our new patio door that did not get completed correctly....
