I also had to pay additional on top of the pool price for a plumber to install a new gas line to the heater and while they were there, run gas to the grill into a deck that was not built… then there’s the coordination of all the pre and post pool stuff. I wonder if a new house, is a screened enclosure installed and then torn out for a larger one??? I would guess I spent about $25k on top of the pool price.

Our total pool build was only 9 weeks from shovel to swim. It is a small pool 28’ length 12-18’ width.
Our irrigation change was $900 Any existing lawn all irrigation worked. Last zone was off, until pool completed.
4 pallets sod, and 18” of rock (we picked expensive rock) around house and pool was $1,950.
Any other costs were included in pool build. We didn’t have to coordinate any outside companies, it was all handled within.
