yeah, yeah I heard so many people saying they'd never buy a place with pool again...and I ignored them. Bought house 6 yrs ago, was warned about the gel coat on the fibreglass back then, informed maybe 5 yrs life left.
...Fastforward 2007: losing some water due to cracks had the pool shop in to epoxy it under water this week...told me 'it's stuffed...save your sheckles, try $9-10k to fix for another 20yrs i.e. all new gelcoat.'
5 yrs ago I heard figure for reco gelcoast was about $4k...so i think price estimated to me by pool shop is quite high.
Geezus, wanna hear what is ridiculous about this expense?! Got the damn pool in Canberra of all places, like i'm going to get my money's worth outta it!
