Pool Landscaping FAQs
What Items Work Well Around a Pool?
When choosing swimming pool landscaping that fits your home’s aesthetic, consider these options:
- Hardscaping: Travertine pavers, composite decking and porcelain tiles are popular for their look and durability.
- Plants: Native plants and low-maintenance shrubs offer easy upkeep, while tropical plants bring a vacation atmosphere.
- Decorative surfaces: Gravel, paving stones and tiles prevent weeds and debris from growing around the pool area.
- Lighting: Use path lights, spotlights and wall lights to enjoy your pool at night.
What Is the Most Affordable Time to Build a Pool?
The most cost-effective time for a swimming pool installation is in early spring and fall. The off-season sees less demand, which translates into lower prices, and your pool will be ready for summer.
What Is the Best Surface to Put Around a Pool?
Concrete is the most common surface to use around a pool due to its durability, longevity and affordability. It can also be crafted to resemble the appearance of stone. With our hardscaping services, we can help you create the ideal concrete surface for your swimming pool design in Central PA.
