I agree. If the excavators find groundwater under my land that could lead to the liner float (which there very likely is water), it will be an additional $3,500 to pump the water out! I really wanted to have an inground pool, but spending another $15k or so (half the cost of the pool!) on a...

Yes, we built the house 3 years ago and the excavator really screwed up from what I’ve been told... Lol. We had a few pool companies in for quotes, and they were all shocked at how the excavator graded my yard. I do believe that part of the problem is being at the bottom of a hill, there is not...

Thanks for the advice. Unfortunately all of the pool bids I have gotten said that a retaining wall is required, as we are at the bottom of the slope. My neighbors on top of the hill (seen in the picture) just had a pool installed 2 seasons ago and they did not have to do a retaining wall because...

Thanks for the replies. The big thing for me is avoiding the retaining wall. My yard is very sloped and we have problems with stormwater, so covering as much yard as possible with a deck would help the issue.

The Radiant Grecian technically is an above ground pool, but it is designed to be installed above, semi, or completely in the ground. You can add a "hopper" bottom (deep end) and walk-in steps as well, so it truly would feel like an inground pool. The price isn't really a factor, I'm just...

Hi all! I am going to be getting a pool installed in the spring. We're still in the planning phases and going over all of the options... We live at the bottom of a hill, so to do an inground pool right, we would have to do a retaining wall. We are located in Pennsylvania, and the first quote we...

Hi all! I'm going to be getting an inground pool for next season and am still in the planning stages. Deciding whether to go with a local pool company or order one online and hire an independent pool contractor... I was trying to design a pool at Royal Pools website, but was unsure of what...
