Is $8,500 to add a fountain feature to the deep end of the pool a fair price?
Project Details
We are currently building a pool and patio, and the design is mostly set as they are framing it out. I'm looking for advice on additional features. I'm concerned the current design, which only includes two bubblers on the tanning ledge, might feel boring. I'm considering adding a fountain feature on the far side of the deep end. I'm also wondering about built-in seating and plan to make the firepit area deeper to accommodate larger cushions. I'm thinking of adding more built-in seating near where a table is shown in the design. My yard is sloped, which explains the flower bed wrapping the corner. I would have loved a negative edge, but it was too expensive. I'm open to suggestions to make this build as good as possible, especially since I'm spending a significant amount on it. I'm also considering adding a grill near the firepit since gas will be run there, as my main grill is currently on the deck off the kitchen.
