How Transparent Cost Planning Drives Success
When planning a home renovation, adding a pool to your project is a perfect way to enhance your living space. At Fortem Projects, we offer the unique advantage of managing both the renovation and the pool build within the same project scope. This integrated approach ensures cost-efficiency, seamless coordination, and a cohesive final result that brings together the pool, landscaping, and architectural design.
The true advantage lies in combining the pool build with your larger renovation, ensuring the entire project is managed under one expert team. By bundling the pool construction with the home renovation, Fortem Projects can optimise labour, materials, and equipment usage, streamlining costs for both projects.
When Fortem Projects handles both your home renovation and pool build, you benefit from significant cost savings. By integrating both projects, we can optimise resources, including labour, materials, and equipment. This also reduces expenses like permits, warranty insurance, site establishment and site management costs, which are added to both the overheads and margin of a pool builder. We consolidate these costs within a single project. Managing everything together leads to fewer logistical challenges and helps keep costs in check.
One of the most significant advantages of having Fortem oversee both your pool and home renovation is streamlined project management. Often there are services within the ground that need to be considered with both the home renovation and the pool construction, such as sewer works, electrical and data, lighting and more, which your home builder can fully integrate into the home renovation. With one dedicated site manager, you eliminate the need for multiple contractors and ensure that all tasks, from structural engineering to finishing touches, are expertly coordinated. This seamless management ensures there is no miscommunication between trades and reduces the risk of delays or complications. By keeping everything under one roof, we ensure that every aspect of your renovation is aligned and runs smoothly.
When managing both the renovation and pool construction, Fortem can reduce the overall project timeline. By carefully sequencing tasks and overlapping construction phases, our team can ensure both the pool and home are completed faster than if handled separately. This concurrent approach maximises efficiency, allowing you to enjoy your transformed home—and pool—sooner.
4. Seamless Integration of Design
A cohesive design is crucial when integrating a pool into your property. At Fortem, we ensure that your pool is not just an add-on but an integral part of your home’s overall aesthetic and landscaping. For example, lighting for the pool is ideally switched from inside. Your home builder can co-ordinate this with ease. By managing both projects, we can harmonise materials, design elements, and finishes to create a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor spaces, providing a cohesive and elevated final result.
When building complex elements such as basements or large outdoor spaces, the engineering of the pool must be considered prior to starting construction works to either home or pool. Fortem ensures that both the structural requirements of your home and pool are aligned, avoiding costly and time-consuming redesigns later in the process. This integration of engineering requirements ensures that all elements of the build, from the pool to the home’s foundations, are planned cohesively.
Having Fortem Projects handle both your renovation and pool guarantees consistency in quality. From materials to craftsmanship, we ensure that the same high standards are applied throughout your project. This results in a cohesive and polished finish, with every element of the build—from the home’s interior to the outdoor pool—meeting the same level of care and excellence that Fortem is known for.
When working with Fortem, you’ll benefit from a streamlined permitting process. Handling all permits under one builder simplifies approvals with local authorities, reducing delays and costs (e.g. insurances) ensuring that inspections can be coordinated across the entire project. This eliminates the hassle of juggling multiple applications and permits, keeping the project moving forward without unnecessary obstacles.
Choosing Fortem Projects to handle both your home renovation and pool construction offers numerous advantages, from cost savings and streamlined management to reduced timelines and seamless design integration. By entrusting both projects to one expert team, you’ll enjoy a cohesive result that enhances the beauty and functionality of your home, inside and out.
With Fortem Projects, you’re not just renovating—you’re creating a home where every detail is carefully considered, and every element works together harmoniously. Let’s work together to bring your dream home, and pool, to life.
