Swimming Pool Chemicals
Are you still having a debate between yourself or with your family members as to whether or not a project like swimming pool removal is a great idea? Have you already exhausted the pros and cons of having and keeping a swimming pool and still feel undecided? And how can you tell if it is time to give up the debate and finally decide to remove it?
It’s not worth it
Most of us are not aware (or choose to ignore) that keeping a pool makes us $2500 poorer every year. Yes, that is the average amount of expenditure that is eaten up by an average-sized pool every year. That is a lot of money, money that can be used for leisure and travel, new furniture, or to add up to your kid’s college fund.
Repair vs. Removal
If you rarely use the pool, be it for swimming or as a place to have an event or party, and its purpose for the time being is for aesthetic reasons, then having it maintained and repaired is not a nifty idea, especially if you have lots of bills to pay like mortgage, car payments, insurance, etc. Because believe it or not, swimming pool removal is much more cost-effective and practical than having it repaired and spending a lot of cash every year just to maintain something that is not worth using.
Improve the value of your property
If you are thinking of selling your house and you have an old, decrepit swimming pool in the backyard, should you renovate or remove it? If the pool is more than 10 years old, then it is better to remove it than have it renovated. Aside from the fact that renovation is more expensive and labor-intensive than swimming pool removal, a very old pool is susceptible to a lot of problems: underground pipes breaking and leaking, and plaster on the surface of the pool peeling because of years of wear and tear.
Many prospective house buyers will shy away from properties that have old swimming pools (even if they want one in their backyard) because maintaining and repairing an old pool every year is very expensive.
So it is better to remove it to increase the value of your property and attract a lot of buyers.
Swimming pool removal: Leave it to the experts
Doing a task like swimming pool removal is not an easy job. It takes a lot time and effort, and it can put a big dent in your wallet. It’s one of those household projects that you cannot do by yourself (or with the help of your family members or neighbors) no matter how skilled and handy you think you are. Removing a swimming pool is a task bigger than you.
Hardheadedly doing it yourself can result to more problems, like accidents, and will eventually cost you more money. To avoid unnecessary risks and unwanted cost and to save you a great deal of stress and worry, better leave this household project to the professionals. Just sit back and relax and hire a contractor to do the job.
