There are so many reasons why you should add a pool to your property, including the fact that it’s something the entire family can use, and it may increase your property value. When the summers get unbearably hot, you’ll have the best way to stay cool and enjoy some fresh air. A swimming pool is an investment that benefits you now and into the future. If you’re thinking about adding one to your property, you might be wondering: when is the best time to buy a pool?

The Best Time to Buy a Swimming Pool

When it comes to wondering when the best time to buy an above-ground swimming pool might be, the answer is in the fall. You might be able to get a good deal in the spring, but you are going to get the best deal in the fall. Below are some of the reasons why.

Pools Will Go on Sale

The vast majority of people start adding pools to their property in the spring and summer when the weather gets hot and they want a way to cool down.

This makes this time of year incredibly busy for pool installers. However, they still need work during the rest of the year, so to entice people to buy, they may put their products on sale in the fall.

Not only will you get a great deal on a pool during this time of year, but it will also be ready to use when summer rolls around. You won’t have to wait for the pool to be constructed, you’ll be able to enjoy swimming in your cool, refreshing pool.

Fall Installation Is Easier on Your Landscaping

Not only is the fall the best time to buy a swimming pool, but it’s also the best time to build a swimming pool. Typically, the ground is drier in the fall than it is in the spring and summer, which means that the equipment needed to construct your pool won’t sink into your yard and create ruts.

Should any damage occur to your property during pool construction, the fall is the best time to plant grasses, trees, and flower bulbs so that they’ll pop up during the spring. This means that by the time the nice weather rolls around, you’ll be enjoying your new swimming pool and your yard will look amazing—and no one will even notice if some areas were dug up during construction.

You Have Plenty of Time to Plan for the Upcoming Pool Season

If you’re like most people, adding a pool to your yard means you are putting plans into place for parties and get-togethers. This is a great way to spend your summer with family and friends, and when you buy and install a pool in the fall, you’ll have plenty of time to plan your pool parties.

Should you decide to get your pool during the spring and summer, you can pretty much guarantee that something will slow construction down.

It could be the weather, the need for an inspection, a contractor not having the right supplies, or a busy schedule. If any of these occur, you’ll have to put your pool party on hold.

It’s possible that these things can happen in the fall as well. However, since you aren’t planning your parties until the weather gets nice, you won’t be disappointed. You’ll have plenty of time to plan the perfect get-together.

During construction is the best time to buy pool supplies as well. This will include buying floaties or pool toys, patio furniture, and the chemicals or filtration system you’ll need to keep your pool clean. Since it’s the off-season for these items, you might be able to get them for a really great price.

Finding the Right Pool

The fall is the best time to buy a swimming pool, as well as install it. Thus, if you’re seriously considering adding this to your property, you’ll need to figure out which one is the right pool for your home. Below is a brief pool buyers guide that explains some of the things you’ll need to think about and consider.

What Type of Pool Do You Want?

If you are hoping to get in some exercise as well as some fun, then you might consider getting a traditional rectangular pool. This will allow you to swim laps, but it’s also good for the entire family. You could also look into an L-shaped pool, which can be used for swimming laps, but it also has a separate area for others to play.

If you just want to add a pool for some fun, then you should consider getting a round or oval pool. This is a great option if you have younger kids who will be spending a lot of time in the pool with you. Round and oval pools generally don’t have a deep end, so everyone will be comfortable and happy as they splash around.

Of course, if you’re looking for something completely different, you also have the option of getting a custom-shaped pool. The only limit to what you get is your imagination—and how much room you have in your backyard.

How Much Space Do You Have?

Speaking of room, another thing you’ll have to consider when it comes to adding a pool to your property is how much room you have in your backyard. Knowing the measurements and determining if you want to add a deck could help you narrow down the pool shape.

Working with a professional is the best choice when it comes to getting the right pool for your property. They’ll be able to give you an idea of what will work best for your yard and help you build the pool of your dreams.

Deciding to add a pool to your backyard is a big decision, but it could benefit you and your family now and well into the future. Fall might be the best time to buy a pool, but any other time during the year can also be a great time for a pool as well.
