Ugh, pools. Good luck, OP--my understanding is 130-160k is the norm for a decent one around here. |

Not true. I had two quotes for an April 2022 finish. But it was 150k for a tiny plunge pool, so no thanks. |

Pool itself will be 60-75k. The real cost increases come from the extent of hardscaping, grading, retaining walls, and any structures like a pergola. That can be as little as 10k for a small concrete deck to hundreds of thousands for an elaborate setup with high end finishes. |

This contractor is lying or the cheapest on the planet. Our swim spa and deck estimates were $150,000-$250,000 and yes they were serious. |

| Does this cost still hold for DC? I don’t see many private pools EOTR near the Maryland border but I have a flat double lot so I’m interested in learning what it would take to get a pool. Can’t imagine going through the DC permitting process though. |

| I got one built a few years ago. I didn’t need much decking. It was about $65k. |
