Frequently Asked Questions

How much does it cost to design and install an inground pool Upstate New York?

The average cost to install an inground pool in the Capital Region is about $55,000 with most homeowners investing between $35,000 and $85,000. There are additional costs of pool ownership to consider which include added utilities costs, basic maintenance and any necessary repairs that could range between $2,000 and $4,500 each year.

When is the best time of year to install a pool in Albany?

The best time to build a pool is typically considered to be during the warmer weather months of April through September. It is this time of year when the weather is warmer and dry, allowing for optimal conditions for excavation and construction. Further, the warmer weather allows for the pool to be used immediately following completion, allowing you to enjoy your new pool during the summer months. Keep in mind that local conditions like weather, ground freezing, and snowfall can affect the construction schedule, so it’s best to schedule a consultation to determine the best time to build a pool.

Do you need a permit for an inground pool in NY?

Yes, in New York State, you typically need a permit to build an in-ground pool. The specific requirements and permit process can vary depending on the city, town, or village where you plan to install the pool.

Generally, you will need to obtain a building permit from the local building department, which will require you to submit detailed plans for the pool, including its size, shape, location, and construction details. You may also need to obtain additional permits for electrical work, plumbing, and zoning.

It’s important to note that failure to obtain the necessary permits can result in fines and legal penalties, and it may also affect your ability to sell your property in the future. Therefore, it’s always a good idea to check with your local building department before beginning any construction project. Got questions, reach out to us today!

Do you need a fence around a pool in NY?

Yes, New York State law requires a fence around any residential swimming pool that is over 24 inches deep. The fence must be at least 4 feet high, with no openings or gaps that would allow children to climb through or under it. In addition, the gate to the pool area must be self-closing and self-latching, and the latch should be out of reach of young children. These safety measures are in place to help prevent accidental drowning, particularly among young children who may be attracted to the pool but are not yet strong swimmers. It’s important to note that local laws may have additional requirements, so it’s a good idea to check with your town or city government to make sure you are complying with all regulations.

Does installing a pool increase homeowners insurance?

Yes, installing a pool on your property can increase your homeowners insurance premiums. Pools are considered an attractive nuisance and can increase the risk of accidents and injuries, such as drowning or slip and fall accidents, which could result in costly liability claims.

Insurance companies may require additional coverage or higher limits on your liability insurance to protect against potential claims related to your pool. They may also take into account the type of pool, its location, safety features such as fences and pool covers, and your level of experience and training in pool maintenance and safety.

To determine the exact impact of installing a pool on your homeowners insurance, it is best to contact your insurance company directly and discuss the specifics of your situation with them. They can provide you with information on any additional coverage requirements or premium increases that may apply.

Does adding a pool add value to my home?

Installing an inground pool can potentially add value to your home, but the extent of the value increase will depend on several factors, including the pool’s location, size, and condition, as well as the local real estate market and buyer preferences. On average, real estate professionals state that you can increase the value of your home by 5% to 8%.

In general, an inground pool can be a desirable feature for homebuyers, especially in warmer climates or areas with a high demand for outdoor recreation. It can enhance the overall aesthetic appeal of the property and provide a fun and relaxing space for family and friends to enjoy.
