Pool Cover/or...Demolition?
FYI...I did search the "archives" at least the first 8 pages. However, my mom's pool is 45 years old. It's been leaking water...really bad. Her pool-man of "20" plus years passed away recently (he determined where the leak was) alas, my mother went with her friends "pool-guy" and it's been nothing but a bunch of "lip-service" to my mom. Ok, bottom-line...mom's has decided to drain the pool, due to the fact that her NEW pool-guy's contractor "friend" quoted her a price of $2000.00 to repair the leak. Hence, my question...what is the best pool-cover to use for an empty pool? Or, is this a "practical solution"? Thank-you so much for any/all replies! OXXO Moonchild P.S. I'm already missing those nice long..."DIPS"...since our thermostats have reached the 100 mark!

According to your post, you are looking to drain and cover a pool that you will not repair. If this is the case why not just eliminate the pool by removing it and filling it in? If you want to keep the pool then call a few other pool repairmen and get more information.If you find that the other repairmen are quoting a similar price then select one and get the repair done.You also might ask a lot of questions about the work to be done. Do not mention that you have had other quotes and do not discuss what was said by other repairmen. Gather all of your information and then decide.
