If you’ve been dreaming about upgrading your backyard with a pool for the summer, believe it or not, WINTER is the perfect time to explore options, lock in plans, and get ahead of the summer rush. Let’s take a closer look at why a winter pool installation could be the smart move for your family.
Plan Ahead and Prevent Pool Panic
We see it every year: New England families coming off of a long and brutal winter are always shocked by how quickly those hot, sunny days arrive. Once that first warm day hits, our phones start ringing with customers desperate to get their pool ASAP. The result? Packed schedules, longer wait times, and fewer available pool installation windows.
Planning your pool installation during the winter months puts you ahead of the curve. Instead of trying to squeeze your project into an installation calendar that’s already full, securing your spot early gives you more flexibility and peace of mind. That translates into smoother scheduling, fewer delays, and, most importantly for us in New England, a longer swimming season for you and your family to enjoy!
You’ll Have More Time to Design the Right Pool for Your Property
Buying a pool isn’t just about choosing a shape and calling it a day. A well-designed pool should look like it belongs in your backyard, fits your lifestyle, and makes your outdoor space more enjoyable for years to come. And winter is the perfect time to plan that out.
When you start early, you have the breathing room to think through the details that really matter, like layout, yard grading, and long-term goals for the space. There is nothing worse than feeling pressured to make decisions because summer is around the corner — or already here! You can take your time, ask questions, compare options, and feel confident that you’re making the right investment.
Why Timing Matters for Pool Installation in New England
In warmer climates, pool season can stretch for most of the year. In New England, we don’t have that luxury. Our summers are shorter, and our weather can change quickly. That’s exactly why winter planning is such a smart strategy for homeowners in this region.
- Spring Weather Can Be Unpredictable: Anyone who’s lived in New England for more than five minutes knows spring doesn’t always behave. One week feels like summer, and the next week feels like March again. This kind of unpredictability can slow down projects. But when your pool is already planned and scheduled, you’re not starting from scratch when the weather finally cooperates.
- Short Summers Mean You Can’t Afford Delays: If your project doesn’t start until late spring or early summer, there’s a real chance you won’t be swimming until mid-summer or even later, depending on scheduling and conditions. Whether you’re planning pool parties, a 4th of July BBQ, or simply looking to enjoy your backyard oasis, we want all of our customers to get the maximum enjoyment out of their Gibraltar Pool!
