Check the voltage with a voltimeter. When mine failed, a capacitor in the pump had burnt up.

Yes - I would absolutely fix the cause otherwise you will be doing it again.

Drain, fix the liner, wash, refill.

Portaband (portable band saw) Chop saw or cut off wheel on an angle grinder would work as well.

Best - Yoder. Good enough? Traeger, Green Mountain, RecTec, Camp Chef. Most all use the same internals. I have had my Traeger for nearly 12 years. It's survived the midatlantic rust belt with very little upkeep required. You want heat retention, so look for a thick shell or double walled steel...

This style is a bit more reasonable in price: Slim Pool Chaise Sun Lounger White ISP087-WHI I have two of them. Very comfortable, and material seems to be quality.

For reference, I paid $7200 for 225' of 5' Aluminum fence, with 1 5' gate and two 4' gates in August. You are getting gouged across the board

I have silver maple trees in close proximity so after the falling of the samaras/seeds.

Chip off the stucco and re-tile/grout to match the existing tile work.

I live in Sykesville too. We just signed a contract for a new gunite 18x40 freeform pool. Price was about $73k for the pool plus another $16k for heater, swg, cover, lights, water features and a few other options. Due to the grade, we opted for a raised bond beam instead of a retaining wall, so...
