  • Having a pool is often seen as glamorous on social media, so I wanted to share what it is really like to be a pool owner. We definitely love our pool and it was a must-have for our home. Neither of us grew up with a pool so it was definitely a steep learning curve. We've learned a lot about what all comes with having a pool and wanted to share what you should know before building a pool and the pros and cons of owning a swimming pool. As always, hope this helps!

Although not common, our goal is to make our first home our FOREVER home.

    the harsh reality is that you need to fill it up with water!you've got to keep it clear of algae.a woman who i knew down south,said that it took eleven hours just to fill a plastic paddling pool about four feet high and six feet long.to fill a large olympic swimming pool must take days!

    I live in the Houston area and have just put in a pool. Your comments on the big mess and having to replace sprinklers, grass, dirt, etc. are spot on! I knew I would have to do that, and it was well explained from our pool company, but I never imagined the mess. Still happy I did the pool, but just prepared for the mess - especially if you get a lot of rain.

    We are looking at adding the same pool! Unfortunately the builder said we can’t fit the 40’ but they just came out with a 30’.
    How big is it to really swim if you lost 10’?

    • @yourtwobiggestbills

      Will you be adding stairs or a hot tub that will take some of the space? Although our pool is a 35, with the stairs and then hot tub, it’s more like a 30 which has still definitely been enough room to swim for sure.

      @@yourtwobiggestbills if that is the Latham Astoria, we are looking at the exact pool, they just have a 30' version vs 40' now.

      30' is plenty of space to swim for the average person. It's kind of an illusion when looking at videos and photos etc it doesn't look like much room, but it really is when you're in it. As they mentioned, just be aware if it's 30' total and there's large stairs or tanning ledge, hot tub etc that eats up total swim space.​ @brandongaronteam
