The Pool

Not long after we moved in to our home (mid March 2013) we decided to have a pool put in.  We started getting bids and finally decided on a pool company mid June.  We were hoping that the "digging" would be over before I had Emma but that didn't exactly workout seeing as how she decided to make her appearance 3 weeks early.  We brought Emma home on the 30th of June and the digging continued well in to that first week.  It was to say the least AWFUL!  SO loud!  We loaded up the kids and went to my parents while it was going on.

With all of that said the process was pretty exciting and we looked forward to seeing the finished product.  The entire project took 7 weeks.  That was from the time of painting off the outline of the pool to swimming.

Food for thought:  1) Get at least 5 bids for the job. 2) Look for a pool company that doesn't have a ton of overhead so they don't include their overhead in the cost of your pool. 3) Ask for references and to see those references first hand.  If their work is really that great they should be able to take you to a few jobs they have done and let you see their finished product.
