We did visit another contractor on Saturday, but they came in just under $90,000 for the same pool and they use Pentair equipment, but didn't get specific model numbers. They have a large store with all of the things to look at. They answered all of my questions and had a lot of good...

No it does not, but I will ask. I did ask about equipment size and they use some large excavators, but not about who eats the cost if we hit rock. My soil is mostly clay and I know there are plenty of rocks around. Surprisingly, the ones on my list have all been around this area for a while...

Thank you! I will ask if they have an automation system they use or recommend. I have not read up much on that so I will do so. Correct, no heater, but I have asked all builders to leave room for one if I wanted to add it down the line. I have no gas here, only electric. I have read up on...

Hello everyone, I have been doing a lot of lurking and information gathering in plans to get a pool installed. I am located in South Carolina. I have four different bids varying in price, but each contractor uses different equipment from the big names. I am still gathering information on...
