With summer long gone and winter on the horizon, a swimming pool might be the last thing on your mind. However, if your family has been yearning for a new pool, now is the best time of the year to get started on planning for next summer. The experts at Distinctive Swimming Pools in Washington Depot, CT, share some reasons why fall and winter is the best time to prepare.

Why to Start Planning for Swimming Pool Installation Now

Beat the Demand

Spring is peak pool installation time, and most contractors book their schedule months in advance. If you wait until spring to get started, you’ll likely miss out. Start working with a pool installer now so you can get a good spot on their calendar. Also, the offseason brings better pricing because demand is lower and businesses are looking to fill their schedules for the upcoming season.

Have More Time to Finalize Design & Obtain Permits

Planning so far in advance allows you time to design more than just the pool. When you plan upfront, you can account for landscaping, lighting, decking, and furnishings to get a polished look for your new pool. You’ll also get a head start on any permits required by local ordinances. The wait time for obtaining permits varies from place to place. Starting the process now gives you ample time to get everything lined up before your project begins.

Enjoy a Full Season in Your New Pool

Waiting until spring could mean a limited pool season for your family. If you get on the books now, you can start swimming on the first day of summer and plan for events and parties all season long.
