Is $3,500 to do electrical work for an above-ground pool a fair price?
Project Details
I was ready to order an above-ground pool for around $8,000, but after receiving a $3,500 quote for the electrical work, I'm second-guessing the entire project. I'm located outside of Chicago and have been reaching out to different electricians for quotes.
