Q. We are really interested in a pool. What do we do now?

A. Call Legacy Pools of Texas!

But first... sit down with your family and make a list of your pool needs. You may find you have many more needs for the pool than just for swimming. Your pool will be the waterscape in your outdoor living environment.

Here are some topics for your consideration:

• Game pool (for water recreation) or diving pool

• Lots of length (for lap swimming)

• Spa and/or sun shelf (for soaking or relaxing)

• Raised Spa (for visual impact)

• Rock waterfall or fountain (for the soothing sounds of falling water)

• Tropical, quarry, traditional, or contemporary look (for visual impact)

• Summer kitchen (for entertaining convenience)

• Gazebo or shade arbors (for relaxed outdoor appeal)

• Total landscape design (for an integrated design concept)

      Q. What should we have ready for the designer's visit?

A. It would be very helpful if you had a copy of your homesite survey or plot plan. The designer will measure your yard anyway, but he or she is trained to spot existing easements, etc. on your survey which may affect the design. 

  B. If possible, flag your backyard electric, water and sewer, gas, and phone lines in advanced to see if they require rerouting. If they do, this expense can be added to your estimate up front, avoiding 'surprise' expenses later on.

C. Make the project a family affair. Tell everyone in your family to write down specific needs and preferences and be prepared to discuss them with the designer. The more input we have from your family, the better we can tailor the project to meet everyone's needs.

D. If you are planning a Home Improvement or Home Equity Loan, tell us. We want to help. We can be a valuable source of information.

Q. What if we change our minds regarding a design?

A. Just tell us. At Legacy Pools the choice is always yours. We will provide explanations and make suggestions about safety and practicality, but you make the final decision. Send us back to the drawing board until you get what you want. We don't mind because our goal is to create the perfect outdoor environment you will enjoy for many years to come.

Q. How long will it take to complete my pool?

A. The average pool project takes about four to six weeks from excavation to enjoyment. Every added enhancement can add from one to three weeks to the total construction time. At Legacy Pools, we do not sacrifice the strength nor the structual integrity of your pool with unattainable deadlines. Our committment is to provide you with a safe, quality waterscape at an affordable price - without compromise.

Q. How will I know what type of design and/or materials complement our home and lifestyle?

A. Don't be afraid to ask questions about what type of materials can be used for the construction and finishing of your pool. Legacy Pools of Texas professionals will take all the time needed to answer your questions and discuss the details before construction of your waterscape begins. Remember, your wish is or design.
