Pool & Spa Construction/
Refurbishment
     
 

Swimming pools, Spas or Hot tubs are becoming increasingly popular as more and more people want to relax in the comfort of their own home. In addition, it adds value and aesthetic beauty to a property.

When considering what to build, one should know what the pool will be primarily used for. Aesthetics or increasing property value, health and exercise, relaxing and entertaining

 
 
 
friends, kids playing, or serious training. Planning and designing a pool will take all these into consideration plus other conditions. What location would yield the most sunlight? Where is the prevailing wind coming from? Are there any nearby trees or structures that can pose a problem?
 
     
 
 
Once this is established, one should have a budget in mind. Pools can range from simple structures to lavish customised creations with luxurious water features. Remember this is a permanent structure, and proper planning and execution is crucial. Other factors that would affect the budget is the size, the site access and location-Is it flat land or a hill side? What is the soil type-rock, sand or clay? Any underground restrictions such as septic tanks, large tree roots, power or
 
 
water lines, high water tables? Can work vehicles get easy access? When considering heated spas, additional power requirements are sometimes necessary. One must consider any local building laws or codes prior to construction.
 
     
 

Finally, one must understand the responsibility that goes along with owning a pool. It must be sanitised properly and bathers, especially children, should be supervised at all times.
