Know your spa design teams history and experience
Review spa references and experience of the spa design team you are considering before making a costly decision. Be certain that the design team you choose has the knowledge of the industry and the professional credentials required to provide you with the documents that your local building department may require. Apparent savings for unproven design services up front can likely cost you plenty in the long run, when the effects of significant design errors become apparent. This will likely cost you in delays to the completion of your project and the overall profitability of your facility.
If they are an experienced team, they should also be able to provide you with references of recent projects completed. There are MANY new faces in this industry claiming to be seasoned vetereans. Make you selection wisely.
