Getting a swimming pool in your house can be a lot of fun but it is also an expensive option! You definitely want to make sure you that you chose the exact type of pool that is right for you and your house, family and needs. It’s not as if you can just swap it for a new one when the pool is built so you need to get it right first time to avoid any nasty surprises when you get the pool ready for use!

Without doubt the first decision you need to make is the type of pool, either above ground or in ground. The names are self explanatory, although you will find that there are many different variations within these wide ranging categories.

If you are thinking of buying an in ground pool then be aware that they usually cost a lot of money. As you’d expect, because they have to be built into the ground you need to pay for not only the pool materials but for someone to do it for you. However because they are built like this you have a lot more options when it comes to design and shape, and they will also add value to your house as they are permanent in the garden.

The other thing you need to consider is the size you have available for the pool. You want your pool to fit while also not completely filling the garden.

A big decider in the type of pool you get is your budget. In ground pools are usually much more expensive, but are definitely the better option if you have the money available as well as the knowledge that you will be in your house for many years to come.

There are lots of other factors to decide on, and you should spend as much time as possible looking at them before you make your final decision as it will definitely pay off in the long run.
