Selecting the right pool contractor can be daunting. The following are a few tips to help you find the right one for your remodeling job. 

Read Reviews

While not all reviews are accurate, they can provide a good insight into the contractor you are researching, potentially alerting you to areas of concern. 

Look for Accreditations

Accreditations, such as ratings by the Better Business Bureau and awards, can help you find top-tier contractors.

Check the Founding Date

While there is nothing wrong with a new business, one that has lasted the years proves they’re doing something right—and have ample experience.

Verify Insurance

As noted by the Better Business Bureau, reputable pool contractors have personal and property damage liability insurance, plus worker’s compensation insurance. It isn’t enough for the contractor to say they have it, be sure to request verification from them before you sign any contracts or make a payment.

Check References

Ask for references and then call them. When speaking with references, ask if the contractor does quality work and if the pool was finished on time.

Ask About Employee Background Checks

Pool contractors, as well as their employees and subcontractors, will most likely be spending a good amount of time on your property. This means they will be close to your family and home. It is important that they have passed background checks.

Look Out for Scams 

Unfortunately, scams are a part of life. The following are a few factors to remember when trying to determine if a business is legitimate.

  • Watch out for prices that seem too good to be true.
  • Confirm the contractor’s physical address.
  • Use a secure payment method such as a credit card.

Verify Warranties

Verify that the work comes with a warranty. Learn what the warranty covers.

Check Licenses and Permits

Check to see if the pool contractor is licensed to work in your location and that they will handle all the required permits. Reputable pool contractors handle the required permits.
