A pool construction schedule-

Homeowners generally want to have their pool built by early spring so they can utilize the pool throughout the entire swimming season, what they fail to realize is that in a large custom project the lead time that is needed to complete the pool can be anywhere from 3-5 months.

 -This is broken down by 1-2 month need fro field work and design.

 -One month needed for contract negotiations and pricing and fine tuning, scope of work, permit process, which can take anywhere from one week to six months.

 -Construction time, for a standard backyard construction concerning a swimming pool and all it's elements a minimum time of one month should be allocated for pool construction as well as paving steps, walls, fencing, pool equipment, etc. etc.

 -Therefore construction time on a pool can vary from 1-4 months depending upon the scope of the work.

Adding up all these time lines can result in a project that can take 3 months or more from your initial phone call to having a pool in your backyard that is usable.

Homeowners need to be aware that when they purchase a paver installation that there are vast differences between a company that will do just generic installation using standard pavers creating an untumble commercial appearance verses a company that will install the antiqued pavers doing a custom installation with banding of various colors, circle inlays, and fine details on the cuts and corners.

Another difference that homeowners will see, is in a generic installation, the contractor will try to cut corners to keep the cost down, and they are generally pricing a project per square foot, where as a custom installer is not looking to cut the corners but he is looking to create a nicer finish product creating a truly beautiful finished installation for the homeowner.

The price difference the homeowner will see between these two types of installation is not a great amount of difference when comparing on a per square foot bases, the costs might be $14-$15 per sqaure foot for generic installation verses $17-$20 a square foot for a custom installation, considering that is a $3-$4 square foot difference the cost difference would not be a significant percentage of the project.
