While you can choose to remodel your pool at any time during the year, many pool experts agree that fall and winter are ideal seasons to renovate.
The most obvious reason behind the experts’ consensus is that people rarely (if ever) use their pool during the cold fall and winter months. So renovating while the weather is cold means the fun isn’t interrupted for remodeling and upgrades in the summer.
But there are other hidden benefits to revamping your pool in the off-season. Let’s take a look at what they are and what to expect during a renovation.
Getting Ahead of the Game
Many pool owners wait until spring to start a pool remodel. What they may not realize is that depending on weather and other factors, the project can be delayed and they run the risk of cutting into peak season when everyone wants to swim.
Timing Is Everything
Think about it. Because most owners choose to have their pool remodeled in the spring, demand for the best contractors goes up during that season. You’ll be competing with everyone else in your neighborhood for the most reputable pool company. And those companies book up fast. You may even find yourself on a waiting list.
Spreading the Cost
In many cases, pool owners who want to remodel their pool also want to update or revamp the landscaping around it. But waiting until spring to start the remodel means the cost of both the remodel and the landscaping hit the budget at the same time.
Starting and completing a pool remodel in the fall and winter months gives your budget a little breathing room before planting season hits and landscaping is the focus.
How Long Should I Expect My Renovation to Take?
It all depends on the size and current state of your pool. A small, straight-forward renovation can take just a few weeks to complete. But if your remodel requires a more complex treatment and new equipment, you should plan to allow for several months.
