I signed for a fiberglass pool with a reputable builder. Contract was detailed and what I expected after going back and forth with sales/project designer. Gave 15% deposit ($15k) and the shell was ordered. The site supervisor came out a week later and told me I didn’t have sufficient access to drive the shell into my backyard and unless my neighbor signed a waiver to cross part of their property, I’d need a crane and use of smaller machinery that will have “astronomical” costs. Shouldn’t this have been mentioned in any of the previous conversations so I could talk to my neighbor BEFORE signing? The contract does state that buyer must provide 20’ feet access - I assumed I met this since the project designer didn’t point it out when I gave him my survey. I’m hopeful my neighbor obliges, but I wish I wasn’t already this stressed two weeks into an 8-month build
Thanks for letting me rant. Let’s hope my next post is a pool photo
