Summer Fun: Transforming Your Portable Building into a Pool House
As temperatures rise and summer days stretch long and lazy, there’s no better time to make the most of your backyard. If you’ve got a pool—or are planning one—you’re already ahead of the summer fun curve. But there’s one addition that can turn your backyard into a true oasis: a portable building transformed into the ultimate pool house.

Why a Portable Building Makes the Perfect Pool House
Portable buildings are the secret weapon of savvy homeowners. With their flexibility, durability, and range of customizable options, they’re the ideal blank canvas for a personalized pool house. Unlike traditional construction, portable buildings offer a quicker, more affordable way to add functional space right where you need it.
Here are a few ways you can use a pool house:
- Changing Room & Towel Storage: Say goodbye to wet footprints inside the house.
- Mini Lounge: Create a shaded, cool space for guests to relax with a cold drink.
- Equipment Storage: Keep pool pumps, floats, and chemicals organized and protected.
- Guest Retreat: Add a daybed or sleeper sofa for visitors who want the full backyard resort experience.
Design Tips for Your Pool House Transformation
1. Add Plenty of Ventilation:
Large windows, double doors, and even ceiling fans will help keep the space cool on the hottest days.
2. Water-Resistant Finishes:
Choose moisture-resistant flooring like vinyl plank or tile, and go for paint that can stand up to humidity and splashes.
3. Include Outdoor-Friendly Furnishings:
Look for durable, weatherproof furniture—think rattan, teak, or powder-coated metal with performance fabrics.
4. Lighting for Day and Night:
Include both natural light and well-placed LED fixtures so your pool house is welcoming at any hour.
