Pool Quote for First Time Buyer in Houston, TX Area

Postby DanielHobley » Thu 18 Apr, 2019 11:14

Hello there,

My family and I are interested in having an in-ground pool installed at our home. We've been researching options and, frankly, feel a bit overwhelmed by it all. Beyond all the research and thought that goes into the process, I've been shocked by the total lack of communication from most of the 8 builders we've contacted. So far, only 1 has actually made it out to our house to have a look at the land, pick-up a survey, and return a design/quote. Anyway, I am actually posting to see if the quote we received is reasonable as I'd like to have a starting point when others come in.

Note: The quote was not itemized. I did not request the interior, coping, tile, or equipment. Everything listed is basically their suggestion. I received a single document with the following and two totals:

Pool Dimensions:  
Shape: Free Form
Perimeter: 82’
Area: 387 sq. ft.
Envelope: 29’x18’
Depth: 3.5’-5’-4’
Interior: Wet Edge Technologies, Signature Series Pebble, Color TBD
Coping: Bullnose Travertine, Color TBD 
Tile: Standard 6x6, TBD
Features: Tanning Ledge with 2 Bubblers and 1 Umbrella holder
                                                           
Equipment:
Pump(s): Pentair,  VSF 3HP Variable Speed Pump
Filter: Pentair, Cartridge 520 
Heater: Pentair: MasterTemp 400K
Cleaner: Pentair, Prowler 920 Robotic Cleaner
Chlorinator: Pentair, Rainbow 320
Lighting: Pentair, IntelliBrite Color Changing LEDs (2)
Automation: Pentair, IntelliConnect with App-based Controls

Decking: 19 sq. ft. of new concrete with Spray Deck, Color TBD
359 sq. ft. of existing concrete with Spray Deck only, Color TBD
Up to 100 Linear Feet of 4” Drain Lines, Ran to Front of Property   

PROJECT TOTAL: $47,203 with heater; $44,203 with no heater

Price includes all city permits and inspections. Price also includes fence removal and re-installation as needed for access.
Site will be cleaned, graded, and ready for sod upon project completion. Sod and landscaping are not included in stated
price, but can be arranged upon customer request.

Warranty:
1 Year “Fence to Fence”
3 Years Equipment (Including Cleaner)
5 years Electrical and Plumbing
10 Years Structural (one time transferable)

Any insight would be most appreciated! Thanks!
