Maybe this is a bit general but I think the best thing you can do in any major project is plan for the future. Give yourself some expansion potential - whether you use it or not.
- We have an uncovered patio and I'm having the builder pour a footer in one corner. It would support a post if we ever decide to add a roof.
- I am having the electrician add a 220 line from the breaker box to a spot outside. This would be for a hot tub later in life.
- I'm laying PVC pipe under the concrete slab (buried and capped - with strings running from end to end). This would be to run landscape lighting wire down the road.
- I'm adding a port in the plumbing that can be used to add a SWG in the future - or a stenner chlorine pump.
- I MIGHT run speaker wire in conduit to the far side of our pad - for future outdoor speakers.
Think about how you'll use the pool now and how you might use it 15yrs from now. Incorporate things now that would be a pain to do later.
