In July 2020 I signed a contract to have my pool installed in Aug 2021. However, it is now Sep and my PB has said that because of the nationwide resin shortage, Latham is unable to deliver pools to meet their deadlines. He said he can install 1.5 pools a week but he's only getting 1-2 pools a month from Latham. He's afraid of running out of the pools that he has to install because if he runs out of work then his crew will leave. So he's only installing 2-3 pools a month which is pushing everyone back including me.
I call the PB every month for an update and every month is pretty much the same. My pool was ordered in Sep 2020 but it still hasn't been delivered. I also called Latham and they confirmed that they've had some supply chain issues because of COVID and the big Texas freeze last winter which impacted the resin supply. They're unable to tell me anything about my order because it's a contract between them and the PB and I'm an outside 3rd party.
I don't really see any posts discussing this but I was wondering if anyone else is waiting on a fiberglass pool because of a supply issue. Whether it's from Latham or another manufacturer.
Thanks
