When is the Right Time of Year to Begin Custom Pool Construction?

When you have decided that you want to revamp your back yard with a custom pool and landscape design you should consider the time of year to begin construction. Shane LeBlanc of Selective Designs, an Atlanta landscape company, reviews why winter months could be the best time to begin planning and construction on your landscape or custom pool design.

Technically, in this area of the country, you could begin custom pool construction any time of the year. However, when it comes to strategic planning and the best results we find that beginning in January through March has the best outcome.

Starting your pool construction in the winter has a couple of benefits:

  • There are many custom pool companies that will offer up to a 5-10% discount when you schedule your project in the winter months vs. the summer.
  • Starting in the winter will allow time to check efficiency so that your pool is ready in the summer.
  • Any landscape designing and manicuring can be done in this time to promote the best growth and blooms for spring.
  • Beginning a custom landscape project in these winter months will allow your architect to plan the perfect oasis for you that will be ready when it’s time to enjoy the warm weather.

With the addition of outdoor kitchens, cabanas and pergolas, fireplaces and fire pits, kids play zones and luxurious landscape designs you can prep your back yard for the summer coming up when you start early in the year.

Call Shane’s team of designers, builders and architects at Selective Designs to find out if you’re eligible for a winter weather discount this season when you start your pool or landscaping project. Get started early and you can have your custom oasis complete just in time for barbequing and swimming in the summer.
