Tipton Pool Builders in Knoxville, Tennessee know that new home buyers invest in swimming pools
If you’re buying a new home or having one constructed, it might be the ideal time to consider having a new swimming pool constructed as well. A new home build can be the time for the pool construction as well. If you’re buying a new home for your family and it doesn’t have a swimming pool, you may be inclined to have one constructed as a way to truly make the new home your own. Swimming pool contractors in Knoxville, Tennessee say that an in ground swimming pool could very well add to the value and resale value of your new home.
There are some areas of the country that a swimming pool may be considered a luxury while in others (Arizona for example with its triple digit temperatures) it is considered a necessary fixture. Talk with your pool contractor from Tipton Pool Builders and he may share that the National Association of Realtors has found that an in-ground swimming pool can increase property value by as much as 15%. Even though a pool could increase your home’s resale value, they are a lot of work so you shouldn’t have one installed unless you are sure you will use it to its full advantage — not merely as a way to increase the home’s value.
Here are a few things to think about if you’re considering adding a swimming pool to your home:
- Concrete or gunite pools offer you a material that allows you to customize the pool design to fit your unique style. These pools are more expensive than others, but the material makes it easy to adapt a pool design you prefer to your unique landscape.
- With a vinyl liner swimming pool, a hole is excavated, steel frames are put in place and the liner is stretched between the frame. These pools are the least expensive to construct but may not be as durable as concrete or gunite and may not offer as many design options.
- A fiberglass pool is an attractive option. Fiberglass models are delivered in one piece, set into an excavated area in the backyard and are almost immediately ready to use. They have a higher up front cost than a vinyl liner pool but ongoing upkeep and maintenance is generally less than the other pool construction styles.
Talk with your family and make certain they are on board with a swimming pool project and that you think you will get enough use out of it to make the investment worthwhile. If you do, talk with a swimming pool contractor and get the project underway.
