Thousands of Valley residents have been through the process of finding a pool builder that’s right for them and decided to experience the Shasta difference.

If you’re ready to build a new pool, we want to help you discover the best experience possible, which starts with choosing a pool builder that fits your needs. Here are some ways to determine if you and your pool builder are a good fit.

Whether you want turn-key or custom building experience

Choosing tile, colors, water features, and layouts may sound like a dream to some, and to others, it sounds like a lot of tough choices. Knowing which scenario applies to you is important. You’ll want to address this need with a pool builder upfront, letting them know whether you want turn-key options or the freedom to customize the design. Ask the pool builder to explain the design process so you both can get an idea of how involved each party will be.

How much you want to spend

Budget is often the most important aspect for homeowners. While it is important to have a budget and stick to it, getting hung up on getting the lowest price may not be the wisest choice. When you’re making a large purchase like a pool, a healthy balance of budget and quality workmanship will ensure everyone is happy in the end. Know how much you want to spend, but don’t let your budget be the top determining factor.

How many references the pool builder has

Look at the pool builder’s reputation to determine if you think they’ll be a good fit for you. How many pools have they built? Do they have a good track record? How many years have they been in business? Pool companies come and go, but the ones that last are the ones that are doing it right. Longevity in the business will give you an idea of the expertise and reputation of the company.

Whether they’re a one-stop shop

Having a pool builder that knows the ins and outs of all aspects of a pool will put less pressure on you to have to figure things out. From pumps and motors to heaters and filters, there are so many details beyond the design that many homeowners don’t think about until something breaks. Working with a company that can impart their knowledge onto you will ensure that you can confidently manage your pool after it’s built.

There must be a reason why more families have chosen Shasta than all other competitors combined.

When you choose Shasta Pools, you can rest assured your pool care needs will always be taken care of – from your initial consultation to long after your pool is complete.
