[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP! So excited you're considering putting in a pool. We absolutely love ours. The builder of our pool also maintains it which has been great. They said we are by far the people who use it the most out of all their customers they have built/maintain pools for.

How recently did you put it in, and how long from idea to completion was the project?
Ours was completed March 2023. They started digging the hole to begin construction in November 2022. I think our first meeting with the builder to begin discussions about our vision and budget etc was in March 2022.

Could you share any ballpark figures about the annual maintenance costs?
We keep our pool open year-round bc I like swimming laps even in winter. We use natural gas to heat it. We also pay for maintenance year-round. I'd say probably 10-12k annually (this includes the cost for heating it, running it, maintenance year-round, etc). The total cost of the pool all in (including landscaping and the patio and fire pit etc that were all a part of the pool build)was about 350k I'd say. Our pool is also unusually large bc I love to swim laps. It's about 50 by 25 feet rectangle.

It has been worth every penny for us. We have a 3 year old and 8 year old. We use it every single day from May-October. We love hosting pool parties (we just bump up the heat) on random 80 degree days we get in October and November and March and April. We swam on Christmas Day 2023 bc it was sunny and the high was in the 50s and we bumped the heater up to 90 degrees. Priceless memories made.

I hope this helps! I will come back and post again once I discuss/confirm the maintenance costs with my husband. I was just estimating. :)
