Im starting to think this guy gave me a pretty reasonable quote from what im seeing/hearing from a few of you guys. Hes the one that will be doing the pool, I just want to check around before I agreed on any price.
I called a couple fence places after work but only got one place to pick up the phone. He worked out of his house. Basically told me what I was wanting would cost $30 per foot. Doesnt sound bad til I added up what I think I need and compared it to a quote off the internet for just the material and me putting it up. $6000+ or $3300 and me do the labor. Still want to find a store with something I can see in person.
Its gonna end up cost more than i thought it would for sure. All the extra crap is running the bill up. salt system vac, cover, fence. I'll probably hold off on the cover til fall to help keep the cost down up front.
thanks for all the input so far
85buggy, how do you like the salt water pool? You see any negative effects on the concrete or anything near it due to salt? I had a chlorine pool at my old house but never been in a salt water pool. The pool guy told me its about the same money as a chlorine pool if you figure what you spend on chemicals all year. He claims its alot easier to maintain.
less time i spend cleaning it/f'n with it the happier ill be. I dont even want the dang thing but it was an agreement with the wife that she hasnt forgot.
(if our next house dont have a pool we will put one in.....they dont forget lol)
