Question from a Newbie

13 years ago

I'm hoping you all can offer some good advice. DH and I are about 2 years out from building a house and we're trying to plan ahead. Would you all recommend building the pool at the same time we're building the house? It would be a large fiberglass pool with a deep end in the Upstate of SC. Or do you think that would be too much all at once?

It depends, on if it will complicate the installation of the pool at a later date. If the house is going to get in the way of the machinery needed to install the pool, then get the pool set first. If there is excellent access after the house is built then put the pool in last.
