LBI Pool Contractors – How to Choose the Right One

Have you been dreaming of having an inground pool in your backyard?  Are you ready to take the plunge? Before you start picking out your favorite design, there is a more important choice to make first – choosing an LBI pool contractor. Having an inground pool installed is a big project. It is crucial to have the right pool contractor executing the project, but how do you choose? 

Where to Start

Nowadays, no matter what type of professional you’re looking for, the search starts with Google. When choosing an LBI pool contractor, it’s ok to begin your search there. However, you’ll need to do more research than that to get an experienced, qualified pool contractor who will provide you with a superior finished project. Here are some factors you need to consider.

Reputation

Look for LBI pool contractors with a good reputation in the industry. Customer satisfaction should be a priority for any reputable company. You can check out online reviews and ask around for personal recommendations. If a specific pool contractor is recommended by many of your neighbors on LBI, that is a good indication that they may be the right contractor for your inground pool installation. Reputation is important, but it is not the only quality you should look for in an LBI pool contractor.

Experience

Homes on LBI have fiberglass and gunite inground pools. Due to the high groundwater levels on the island, vinyl pools are not a viable option. You want to make sure the contractor you choose understands the unique requirement for installing an inground pool on the island and has experience with the type of pool you’re considering.

Not sure which type of pool you want? Look for an LBI pool contractor that has experience with both fiberglass and gunite pools. They will have first-hand experience and knowledge to provide you with the pros and cons of each type of pool and guide you in choosing the best one for your project. 

Stability

When choosing an LBI pool contractor, check how long they have been in business. A new pool contractor may seem great but may lack the experience necessary to provide the right pool for your backyard. An established and experienced contractor will educate you on the different options, allowing you to make an informed decision. 

Choosing a contractor with a long business history can also provide peace of mind when it comes to providing service after the project is completed. They are more likely to be around to warranty their work or for any future needs you have.

Creativity

While it may not be the first thing you think of when choosing an LBI pool contractor,  it is equally important as the other qualities we’ve discussed. After all, you don’t want a pool installed in the middle of your backyard with no thought to what surrounds it or how it will fit your lifestyle. 

Maybe you want a pool house or outdoor shower to keep wet bathers from running in and out of your house. Or will the pool be the centerpiece of your outdoor living space with an outdoor kitchen and a patio with a firepit? It’s important that the pool contractor you choose has the creative ability and the necessary skills to understand your vision and bring it to life.
