May - Pools, Start with DESIGN!

Pools are an investment

in space, time and money. We love pools, we know that they are a worthwhile investment in family time, but we also know that they need to be designed correctly, the first time. If you begin your pool process with a lackluster design or using a basic plan “just to get the pool in” you will be committed to a placement of the pool, often the patio etc. for, let’s say basically forever? You can remove a pool, but it is so costly that generally people decide to fix it or fill it in. That is why GreenRoots’s emphasis is always to start with a carefully thought out design that suits you and your family’s needs and that makes sense to the flow of your home. GreenRoots perspective is to design and install them right!

 

GreenRoots know what you do not want to hear. You do not wan to hear that to design and then install a pool that you will be happy with for the long haul will likely take longer to get your pool installed. But please, hear us! Be patient. A pool especially is a design process you do not want the quick fix to! Why will it take longer than just calling “a pool guy?” It will take longer because GreenRoots will be carefully assessing your property and designing a space custom to your needs. GreenRoots meets with you to create a space that suits your lifestyle and aesthetic and will be a space you will truly feel spoiled in. When you allow GreenRoots to begin your pool design process you will not have buyer’s remorse when they space is careful, intentional and stunning!

We cannot tell you how many people we have contact GreenRoots and say, “I just put a pool in.” Or “I have a pool going in next month, and want GreenRoots to do around the pool.” etc. And sure, GreenRoots sometimes comes in after the fact and use what they’ve been given. But if you hear anything from this article, hear “Call GreenRoots FIRST!” Aka start with a design.

 

Doesn’t “a pool guy” use designs?

Yes they do, and often times if you are using a pool company they have even already submitted the design with a placeholder patio in your permitting process. And once that has been done, that is what you are committed to installing etc.

Also we work closely with pool companies, they are very good at pool designs and features etc. What we are suggesting to do differently is that we will be design the entire backyard space with a pool as it’s focal point but keeping in mind in Pennsylvania your pool is usually not a 4 season investment and that everything should have its own space for enjoyment all year round.
