FAQs

Swimming Pools FAQ — Delaware

50–60% upfront for pool construction is more common than for other trades due to high material costs (excavation, concrete, plumbing, equipment). However, payments should be tied to completion milestones: excavation complete, shell poured, plumbing and equipment installed, plaster/finish complete. Never pay 100% before the pool is filled and running. Verify the contractor's license and check the pool contractor licensing board for complaints.

A simple bucket test: fill a bucket, place it on the top pool step, mark water levels in both. After 24 hours, if the pool level dropped more than the bucket, you have a leak. Average evaporation is 1/4" to 1/2" per day depending on climate and wind. Leaks typically exceed 1" per day. A pool leak detection company can pinpoint the source using dye testing and pressure testing.

File with your state contractor licensing board immediately — many have recovery funds for victims of licensed contractor abandonment (up to $10,000–$25,000 depending on the state). File a criminal complaint for contractor fraud. Contact your credit card company if any payment was by card. Hire a construction attorney to evaluate liens on the property and options for recovery.

No. Green water indicates algae bloom, which can harbor harmful bacteria. Shock the pool (triple dose of calcium hypochlorite), run the filter continuously, brush walls and floor, and retest chemistry in 24–48 hours. If it doesn't clear in 3–4 days, the filtration system or chemistry may need professional attention. Cloudy water after shocking is normal — wait for clarity.

Yes — all 50 states have pool barrier requirements, and many municipalities add stricter rules. Typical requirements: 4-foot minimum fence height, self-closing/self-latching gate that opens outward, no horizontal climb footing. Some areas require 4-sided isolation fencing (completely surrounds the pool, house not counted as a barrier). Verify your local requirements — fines and liability exposure for non-compliant pool fencing are significant.

Typical annual operating costs: chemicals $600–$1,200, electricity (pump, heater) $600–$1,500, professional service (if used) $1,200–$2,400, occasional equipment maintenance $200–$500. Total: $2,600–$5,600/year for a basic pool without a heater. Adding a gas heater can increase electricity/gas costs $500–$2,000/season depending on usage. Factor this into your decision to build.
