Before contracting on an existing home - Find out details.

• Make sure your utility easement doesn't take up the whole yard.
• Determine if the Home Owner's Assoc. has guidelines to prevent your pool choice.
• You might have utilities running underground/overhead where the pool will go. If they have to be moved, you will have additional costs.
• Many areas have regulations for proper fencing.

What to be aware of when building a new home

The above +

• You can finance the pool with your home or do a Home Improvement Loan after you have moved.
• Make sure the builder keeps all utilities out of the pool area.
• Trees and stumps removed by the builder may save you the cost of removal later.
• Let the builder know you are planning on a pool and to leave room in the electrical breaker box.
• The pool area should be level to save the cost of grading or retaining walls.
• Drainage should be formed away from the pool area.
• Get a survey (plat map) from the builder so that we can work on designs. Our FAX: 281-812-8008
