Hi All,
After months of planning, getting quotes, I am ready to start writing checks. The landscaping company has ideas on using boulders as coping around 1/4 of the pool plus adding a waterfall, slide, etc. Basically lots of stuff along the pools edge. The question I have - does the pool build material matter?
I have 2 pool companies in mind. 1 does vinyl over poured concrete with rebar, the other does the panels (Fiberglass?) that are filled with concrete. Should I choose 1 over the other? The concrete over vinyl seems to make the most sense since its build like a house foundation. The issue I have is the company pouring concrete, their estimate is 4-5K higher due to the spill over SPA. In fairness, I haven't tried negotiating yet but I figured my best chance at negotiating is if I am willing to write a check right at that very moment.
Any advice?
