Is $18,000 to install a custom safety cover for an irregular shaped pool a fair price?
Project Details
My current tarp keeps falling into the irregularly shaped pool, so I was advised to get a safety cover. I plan to sell the house soon. The pool is double-fenced. I thought the 18K quote was crazy, expecting something closer to 3K-6K.
