Concord Pools, which operates a boat, RV and car storage facility on Saratoga Lake and a swimming pool installation business in Saratoga Springs, has plans to develop similar facilities near Northway Exit 18 in Queensbury.

The company is awaiting town approval to build a boat, RV and car storage facility starting this summer. Also, a planned, and already approved, swimming pool center and retail store is in the works. The latter project will wait until later in the year, according to Mike Giavanone, owner of Concord Pools.

He estimated that because of the severity and length of the winter the season for installing swimming pools was shortened by 45 days. The company currently has 40 news pools under construction, all of them in-ground custom pools.

“We are booked out for the year,” he said, “but we can only build as much as Mother Nature will allow.”

Meanwhile, there is a waiting list for space in the company’s storage facility on Saratoga Lake and a list of people ready to sign up for the new one planned for Queensbury, he said.

Boat’n’RV 18 will be located at Exit 18 of the Northway and will have about 110 rental units ranging in size from 14 x 38 feet to 14 x 45 feet.

They will, according to Giavanone, be “super-secure,” with alarms and video surveillance and computerized gates. Tenants will be able to access their units around the clock, all year.

He added, “We can customize any unit for any particular tenant.”

The storage facility will occupy two of the three lots Concord owns at Exit 18. Giavanone estimated the cost at $2.5 to $3 million.

Munter Enterprises in Middle Grove is the contractor. Glens Falls engineer Tom Nace designed the facilities.

Giavanone expects approvals from the Town of Queensbury in June and construction to begin soon after that. Units should be available in time for tenants to store their boats, RVs, and classic cars for the coming winter.

Last year, the company installed 25 swimming pools north of Northway Exit 17. “It’s a great location and a great development plan,” he said.

The swimming pool center will be a more modest project than the storage facility. The estimated cost will be $800-900,000. Construction will probably begin in late summer or early fall.

“We are more interested in doing it right than doing it fast. It makes no sense to rush into a new center after the late, late spring,” Giavanone said.

Concord Pools has been in the swimming pool business for 42 years. In 2012, Pool and Spa News, the industry’s trade magazine, rated them among the top three pool companies in the United States, Giavanone said. Giavanone has owned the company from the beginning.
