As we head into summer, we naturally start gearing up for the warm days spent in the garden with the kids, the cool nights relaxing with family and friends under the stars, the blissful BBQ lunches and the pleasure of just kicking back with a book. A swimming pool can make all the difference to your summer experience, but what sort of benefits does it really bring? We’ve put together this handy guide to some of the many advantages of a backyard pool.
Create Fun For All The Family
With a pool, you’ll truly be “the host with the most”. You’ll provide a great space for family and friends to relax, which is great if you’re a natural entertainer.
Make Weekend Plans Easier
With a swimming pool, gone is the hassle of working out what to do over the weekend, or of packing for those beach days. You’ll be able to just step out the back door and cool off in an instant – all without the need to brush off sand!
Improve Property Value
Installing a pool might not be cheap, but it definitely makes up for it in the long run by adding value to your home. Pools are particularly popular for families with kids, so you’ll give your property that competitive market edge by adding a pool to your backyard space.
Encourage Exercise
If you’re struggling to find time for exercise or are getting bored with the regular gym sessions, a pool can be a great fitness booster. Swimming laps before work or even just walking from one end of your pool to another can have great benefits for your health. Pools are also a great asset when it comes to rehabilitation, as water prevent undue stress on joints and encourages toning and muscle strength without the risk of further damage.
Promote Safety Awareness
You might be concerned about the safety of your young kids around a pool, but pools can be a great way of teaching your children to be confident and aware in and around the water. Proper pool fencing is a legal requirement across the country, and with drownings still a significant concern learning to swim has never been more important.
Accentuate Aesthetics
When you install a pool on your property, you’ll transform your backyard into an attractive, eye-catching feature. Consider a well-designed outdoor space to match your existing architecture, coupled with tasteful and inviting landscaping to convey a sense of peace and calm.
