Any ideas on how much itll cost to install an above ground pool? I can get a new pool for pretty cheap but I dont want to spend millions to have it put in

Are you just putting in the pool or is there a deck around it? I've helped put up 3 with just the pool and the hardest part is getting the foundation hole dug flat. After that if your measurements are good then it sets up really simply with 4 guys and some liquid refreshment.

As for the deck you might want to put up the pool with friends and then (if you don't have the tools/time/know how) get someone to build a deck.

Oh, and the plumbing for most pools is simple PVC pipe/fittings that can be done by anyone who can read adhesive instructions and can shop at Lowes.

Holler with questions,

Dan

worked doing this for 2 summers in college.

What is the size of the pool? We threw the little 12 footers up in like 2 hours. However, it all depends on how much excavation with the bobcat was needed.

its probably going to be a 24 or 27 foot diameter. I was thinking aboutdoing it myself,and my yard is really flat so the excavation shouldnt be a problem.....its funny, you can buy a pool cheap for about 1500+- but it takes 3k to put it up..
