Swimming pools come in various types, each with distinct characteristics:
Each type has its own set of advantages and considerations, including cost, maintenance, and aesthetic appeal.
A well-maintained pool can enhance property value, particularly in warmer climates where pools are in demand. However, the return on investment varies:
Ultimately, personal enjoyment and lifestyle enhancement are primary benefits, with potential property value increase as a secondary consideration.
The price of a pool is determined by much more than just the size and shape of the pool. Many pool builders do not include some of the most important factors affecting cost in their proposals. Because there are so many factors that go into building a swimming pool, there are many ways to cut corners. Here are some of the ways pool builders may cut corners:
**Remember: GOOD WORK IS NEVER CHEAP, AND CHEAP WORK IS NEVER GOOD.

It is not possible to build a pool at a very low price. Most of these “incredible deals” are nothing more than a bait-and-switch tactic to get you to call. You should be aware that to build a pool at a low price, quality will be compromised. The cost of the pool may be cheap, but your time and money spent to upkeep the pool could be 4 to 5 times more if the pool was not built right to begin with. Remember the old adage “IF YOU PAY PEANUTS, YOU GET MONKEYS.”

The shape of the pool really has no impact on the final cost. Pools are priced by the total cost of materials required and the quality of the trades people doing the work.

We had the pleasure of working with Brett at Downunda Pools, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the entire experience. In the end, Brett built us a one-of-a-kind oasis in our backyard – it’s truly a dream come true! We wholeheartedly recommend Downunda Pools to anyone looking for a skilled, reliable pool builder with an incredible eye for detail.
My wife and I have had Downunda Pools build two pools for us. Needless to say we wouldn't have chosen Brett for the 2nd pool if we weren't thrilled with our first. Not only were the pools built to perfection but the back end servicing has been FANTASTIC!!! If we ever have another pool built we will only need to make one call and that will be to Brett Hatfield at Downunda.
We are extremely happy with our luxury pool, spa, and backyard makeover courtesy of Downunda Pools. Brett's service, from the design phase through project completion, was second to none. Downunda was able to finish our project on time and on budget. Our pool looks fantastic and exceeded our expectations. Downunda was highly recommended to me, and I continue to highly recommend them to others.
