How to choose a certified pool construction company
Along with your home and your car, a new swimming pool is going to be one of the most expensive things you ever buy. It makes sense, then, that you want to get someone to design and install it who knows what they are doing and can be relied on to do the job properly. After all, there’s a lot more to it than just digging a hole in the ground and filling it with water!
In this article, we’re going to look at some of the key things you should be looking for when choosing which swimming pool company you’re going to trust to take your swimming pool dreams and turn them into reality.
How to choose a reputable pool company
Research the business
It takes a lot longer to establish a genuine business than it does to put together an impressive website. Don’t just take what you see online at face value – take the time to research the business in depth. After all, you’ll probably be trusting them with tens of thousands of your hard-earned dollars.
If there’s a business address displayed, check that it actually exists. Find out how long the business has been operating and make sure that the facts match their claims.
Here at Burleson Pools, we’ve been in the swimming pool since 1965 and you can find our office in Huntsville on Cullom Blvd SE, Owens Cross Roads.
Is the business accredited?
A reputable swimming pool company should have licenses and accreditations that demonstrate that it meets certain standards recognized by its peers in the same industry or indicate that it can be trusted by potential customers. Don’t forget to check with the organization in question to make sure that the pool company’s claims are 100% genuine!
Burleson Pools is accredited by two of the leading organizations in the swimming pool business, the Master Pools Guild and the Pool & Hot Tub Alliance.
We also have an A+ accreditation from the Better Business Bureau (BBB), which demonstrates our commitment to maintaining the highest levels of honesty, transparency, trustworthiness and professionalism.
Check for customer reviews or references
There’s no better guide to whether your pool construction company is one you can trust than reviews and testimonials from previous customers or awards from industry peers.
As a family-run business with almost 60 years of experience to call on, we’re proud of the number of homes and backyards in and around Huntsville and Chattanooga that we’ve been able to improve with our swimming pools and spas.
