Every listing begins as a business filed under swimming pool contractor on Google Maps in British Columbia.
Open businesses with at least one review stay. Stale records, duplicates and other trades are removed.
Each business's own website shows whether it builds pools and which kinds. Confirmed builders are marked and shown first.
Where a business gives no answer, the listing says there is no information yet. Nothing is guessed.
Pool Builders BC starts from public business records for swimming pool contractors across British Columbia. We keep businesses that are open and have at least one Google review. We remove records that have not been updated in the past year, duplicates, and businesses that turned out to be another trade.
Then we read each business's own website to see what it does: whether it builds new pools, which types it installs, and whether it offers covers, renovations, service or hot tubs. A service is marked on a listing only when the business's own material shows it. We do not verify insurance, WorkSafeBC coverage or the quality of anyone's work, so check those yourself before you hire.
Owners can claim a listing to correct details or add photos. A person checks every claim. Published by Michael.
Start with whether the company builds pools at all. Google files hot tub stores, cover installers, landscapers and service companies under the same heading as the builders. On this site a listing is marked as building new pools when the company's own website confirms it, and those companies appear first on every city page.
There are three ways to build a pool in British Columbia. A vinyl liner pool is assembled on site from wall panels with a fitted liner, and it is the most common build among the companies listed here. A fiberglass pool arrives as one factory-made shell. A concrete pool is sprayed over steel, shaped by hand and finished in plaster or tile. Many builders offer only one or two of these, so the type you want narrows the list quickly. Each type has its own service page on this site.
Pool permits are set by each municipality. The City of Kelowna requires a building permit before a swimming pool is built. The City of Surrey requires one for a pool of 14 square metres or more that is 450 mm or deeper, and it requires a fence with a self-closing, lockable gate that a pool cover does not replace. Ask your builder who files the application and whether the fence is in the quote.
An in-ground pool means excavation. BC 1 Call asks anyone who digs, and anyone they hire, to request a locate at least three working days before digging. A gas pool heater is a gas appliance, so installing one needs a gas permit, and the licensed gas contractor who does the work applies for it. Ask who on the job takes care of each.
A clearance letter shows whether a business is registered with WorkSafeBC and paying its premiums. If it is not, the customer could be held responsible for those premiums. The letter says nothing about the quality of the work, so treat it as a first check, not a reference.
A perfect rating from two reviews tells you less than a 4.5 from two hundred. Every listing shows both numbers. Read the low reviews as well as the high ones, and look at how recent they are.
Do your own crews build the pool, or do you bring in other trades? What is included: excavation, electrical, gas, the deck, the cover and the fence? What warranty do I get in writing, on the structure and on the equipment? Who opens, closes and services the pool after it is built? Can I see a pool you finished near me?
Every listing starts from a public Google Maps record filed under swimming pool contractor in British Columbia. We keep businesses that are open and have reviews, then read each one's own website to see whether it builds pools and which services it offers. Businesses that turned out to be another trade are left out.
No. A basic listing is free and stays free. Businesses can pay for a featured position, a premium listing or a best-of placement, and those are marked wherever they appear.
It means the business's own website did not show that service, or there was no website to read. It does not mean the business does not offer it. Call and ask before you rule a company out.
We do not check. A listing shows when a business states insurance, WorkSafeBC coverage or a certification on its own website, and that is the business's claim, not ours. Ask any builder for proof of insurance and a WorkSafeBC clearance letter, which shows whether it is registered and paying its premiums.
Paid featured and best-of positions come first and are marked. After those, businesses confirmed as pool builders come ahead of the rest, and each group is ordered by rating weighted by the number of reviews.
Pool permits are set by each municipality. The City of Kelowna requires a building permit before a swimming pool is built. The City of Surrey requires one for a pool of 14 square metres or more that is 450 mm or deeper, along with a fence around it. Ask the office that issues building permits where you live.
