Is anyone else trying to find installation services this year and finding that the prices are crazy off the charts?
I've been researching various pool products & determined that we'd ideally like to install a Radiant pool in ground. I found a local company who is willing to install an 18' x 34' oval pool with a 6' deep end, in ground (their install process requires 4"-6" above ground).
All told, the estimate they gave would cost nearly $55,000 (not including final landscaping or concrete work and the fence we'd have to update). This would be for the pool, steps, 260k BTU heater, Salt System purifier, excavation, installation, gas & electric hook up estimate.
From what I'm reading, this is a crazy inflated price? Yet, I can't find any other installer in my area (Minnesota / Twin Cities metro). Can anyone share advice? I realize these things aren't cheap, but I really don't want to be cheated.
