Hello All!
I'm new to the forum however I've been browsing for months to soak up the information on here. Me and my wife just built a new house and we're wanting to put in a pool. This will be out first ever pool. We're limited in size due to a 7.5ft easement on the back of the yard. Anyway I got my first quote and for the size pool we can fit it seemed a little high; however I may be wrong so I was wondering if those quote seems in line for this size/work involved in the DFW area specifically. This PB was recommended by my wife's boss who had their pool recently done with the PB and they were very happy with the process.
Here's the specs:
I'm pretty sure we would do all the "options" with the exception of the PDA as I don't feel that would be needed if I can control everything with the IAQUA Link.
Also are there any additional items I should be looking to add to the quote that I may be forgetting? This is mainly for my wife and I to relax and enjoy with friends and family. Would like to throw up a volleyball net or add a basketball hoop and enjoy. Not looking to swim laps or anything
Any help in regards to the estimate being in line with the DFW market would be great.
Thanks for your help
