Summer is the time for swimming! If you live on The Big Island and you’d like to have a pool built this summer, Captain Cook Pool & Spa is the company for you. Captain Cook Pool & Spa is a locally-owned, family-operated Hawaiian business. Since 1980, they have been building residential and commercial pools for residents of The Big Island, and while they would love to work with you on your swimming pool construction project, they want to you to choose the contractor who is the best fit for you.

Here are a few tips you can use when choosing a contractor for your pool project:

• Consult Several: Before starting any swimming pool construction, it would be wise to consult with several contractors to help you determine the size, shape, and maintenance costs for your property. Make sure to ask about any zoning and building restrictions for swimming pools in your area.
• Narrow Down: After you’ve consulted with several contractors, the next step is narrow down the choices. Choose the three you were the most comfortable with and ask for an estimate on your project. While asking for the estimate, inquire within about each contractor’s total years in business as well as their status on trustworthy sites like The Better Business Bureau, Yelp, and/or Google Plus.
• Verify Credentials: It is also important to verify that they are a bonded and insured business. Having some form of recourse is imperative should your relationship with the company go awry. Request to see some samples of their work to predict the quality that you will receive from them.

While this process may seem long and unnecessary, the background work you do before the project starts can go a long way in assuring that you have selected the right swimming pool contractor for your project. It helps to have a professional to guide you along to assure that the project gets done right, the first time!
