As pool season ramps up, we want to share something important with our community.
Recently, we have been repairing an increasing number of pools, heaters, filters, and equipment systems damaged by improper installations, poor maintenance, and incorrect winterizations/closings. Unfortunately, hiring the wrong or unverified contractor can end up costing far more in repairs than the initial savings.
When choosing a pool company for service, maintenance, repairs, or installation, we strongly encourage homeowners to ask a few important questions, shown in this post.
In today’s world, a company’s reputation matters. If there is little or no online presence, be sure to ask additional questions before hiring. And while an unusually low price or immediate availability may seem appealing, there is often a reason behind it. Quality workmanship, proper insurance, licensing, continuing education, and experienced technicians all come at a cost—but they also protect your investment.
For 63 years and 3 generations, Hunter’s Pool Center has been committed to doing things the right way. Our team maintains professional memberships, ongoing education, and state licensing to ensure we provide the highest level of workmanship and customer care. We carry extensive liability insurance, maintain an A+ Better Business Bureau rating, and remain active members of our local business community because earning and keeping our customers’ trust matters.
We believe an informed customer is a protected customer. Before hiring any contractor for your pool, ask the important questions. Your backyard investment deserves qualified professionals who will stand behind their work. Because in the long run, the cheapest option can sometimes become the most expensive one.
