Lol. No it's not, but the job won't be bonded or insured therefore if something goes bad 2 years later, it's a big time loss.

it's a pool, things will require maintenance for the life of the pool, if you can build it, you can fix it, ever tried to call back some of these little subs or fly by nights? good luck with that

So effin what? Most of 'em disappear anyway.

I've paid for two pools and am completely unimpressed with both pool contractors. The "engineering" is as simple as pie, I guess that's why so many jack legs build pools.

The trick to a pool is good soils to start with and an excellent backhoe operator. Take a look at the subs who show up on pools; it's not that hard.

If I build another one, I'll pay for plans and absolutely sub the rest out. I have no doubt the end-product would be excellent.

Mine is way more than 2 years old and no problems. Also, LOL if you think contractors are going to honor their "warranty" and not claim soil issues out if their control if something goes really wrong.
