Three Myths Keeping You
Out of the Water

Myth 01
"Pools cost $80,000 or more."
Most homeowners invest between $60,000 and $90,000 in a professionally installed pool, depending on size, materials, and features. Simpler designs can start in the $40,000s, while more customized projects can exceed $100,000+.

Many clients choose financing, with typical payments ranging from $500 to $900 per month depending on the project and terms.
Myth 02
"You need perfect credit."
You don't need perfect credit to explore your options. There are multiple financing paths available — including home equity, personal loans, and pool-specific programs — designed for a range of credit profiles.

Your rate and payment will depend on your situation, but most homeowners have real, workable options.
Myth 03
"It takes a year to build."
Once construction begins, most pools are completed in 6–12 weeks. From initial design through permits and build, total timelines typically range from 3–6 months, depending on the project and time of year.

Planning ahead gives you the best chance to be swimming when you want to — not waiting when the season starts.
