Choosing a Pool in Richmond, VA

Richmond, the capital of the Commonwealth of Virginia, is an independent city and not part of any county. The city traces its roots back to 1609, though the city itself was founded in 1737. As such, Richmond is steeped in history with many historic sites in and around the city.

Lying in a humid subtropical climat, Richmond tends to have mild winters and hot and humid summers. Of course, when summer comes along, many residents look for ways to cool themselves. What is the best way to cool off? Surely, it’s taking a dip in a swimming pool.

But not everyone has access to a swimming pool every hot and humid day of summer, and while owning a pool is ideal, not everyone can afford an inground one. This is why above ground pools are becoming a popular choice for many homeowners.

Above ground pools are more affordable to have installed, and cost next to nothing to maintain. Installed with a double drain and pump that handles the cleaning of water, you won't have to buy extra pool cleaning accessories. Further saving you money, you don't have to have a special fence built to surround it like inground pools do. Best of all? It's tax-free.

Installing an above ground pool only takes a day, or sometimes 3 to 5 days if there are issues with retaining walls and stone. Compare this to the more than a month wait you'd have to endure for inground pools, and you'll see why more and more people choose above ground pools.

As easy as it is to install, above ground pools are also easy to take down. This can be especially useful for people who plan to move homes in the near future since you can effectively take your pool investment with you anywhere. Just have it dismantled and reinstalled wherever you move to. And since no holes are dug, your property isn't devalued.

Made from super strong aluminum, on-ground pools are sturdy, stable, and safe - making them great for kids. To further ensure maximum safety, a consultant will come in prior to installation and make sure the pool will fit and that it won't be set up above septic tanks or below power lines.

Available in rectangular shapes that are perfect for swimming laps and playing water sports, such as water polo and water volleyball, above ground pools not only give you a place to relax but a place to get fit as well.

When choosing a pool in Richmond, you can go the expensive route and get an inground pool. Or you can save money with an above ground pool. It does all that inground pools do, and more.
