Is $10,000 to repair an old inground pool a fair price?

Project Details

I bought a house with an inground pool that has not been in use for over 10 years. I've already removed most of the liner. I received a quote to repair it, but I'm also considering just removing/filling it or building a deck over it. I'm concerned about potential bug and water problems if I deck over it. I live in New England and would only enjoy a deck or patio for 4-5 months out of the year. I'm aware that any solution will be expensive.

Quote Details

This quote is for repairing an old inground pool that has been out of use for over 10 years. The homeowner has already removed most of the liner. The repair would likely address: - Broken piping at the deep end (drain piping)- Replacement of the pump and filter, which have been sitting in the pool- Repair or replacement of the rusting/rotting metal wall at the top, potentially involving cutting and welding a new strip
