Who Knew? Fall is Best Time to Build a Swimming Pool, Says Anthony & Sylvan

DOYLESTOWN, Pa.-(Business Wire)-August 28, 2008 - The heat of summer is often what prompts many homeowners to begin construction on a swimming pool, but, ironically, fall is the best time to undertake a pool project, according to Anthony & Sylvan (www.anthonysylvan.com), the largest builder of pools in the Northeast.

"Consumers typically think of pool-building as a warm-weather project, but the reality is fall construction offers homeowners many more benefits," said Jerry Strauss, Vice President of Anthony & Sylvan. "In autumn, homeowners can take advantage of reduced pricing, more flexibility on scheduling, weather that can be more conducive to building, and the added bonus of knowing they'll have a swimming pool to dive into over Memorial Day weekend."

Anthony & Sylvan offers special incentives to build in the fall, said Strauss. Homeowners can typically enjoy savings of up to 15 percent by beginning construction in the fall instead of the more popular spring builds.

The majority of homeowners first think of building a pool when spring and summer temperatures begin climbing, Strauss observed. But by that time, most pool builders already have a backlog of customers and are battling the unpredictability of rainy weather, which can delay a pool project for weeks.

Beginning a project in the fall, on the other hand, typically offers more weeks of balmy weather and the possibility that a dream pool could end up being a Christmas present.

"During summer months, builders often have a backlog of requests, and in many areas, there can be long delays in processing permits," said Strauss. "In the fall, excavation and landscaping are rarely held up due to hard frosts, rainy spells or unusual dryness. What's more, homeowners are generally not taking vacations in the fall, so the builder and crew will have more access to the property."
