October Pools of the Month

We received an email this week from Pool & Spa Living (a leading industry and consumer focused magazine and website.) The e-mail informed us that they have a new section on their website which features ~10 pool pictures as "Pools of the Month;" and that one of ours was chosen!
PBJC feels honored to be included with the other beautiful pools / great pool builders.

Check it out at Pool & Spa Living.

Fall is the time to Build

If we put together a list of Frequently Asked Questions; one would have to be "What is the best time of year to build a pool?"

All businesses have cycles - both yearly and over the life of the company. For pool builders, we have now entered our less crazy time of the year. There are both postives and negatives with these cycles:
Positive: we go on vacation; we can spend time with our family over the holidays.
Negative: Not as many people want us building a pool during this time of year > even though it is the best point of the year for construction.

Some may question that statement, but there are a number of reasons we at PBJC can make that statement; here are 3:

1) In Jacksonville, this is our dry season = less delays.
2) Most manufacturers and subcontractors raise their prices 1 January for the new year = still get this year's pricing.
3) Temperate climate (60's - 70's) during the day = more efficient and more timely work.

At Pools by John Clarkson, we are a year round operation; so give us a call or request a Free CD!
