    I would have to see the lot, but if we have 8-10 feet we can get our normal stuff in, In the past we had only 6' and we used a smaller machine. In NYC they carry buckets of dirt out through the house. Crazy right! Congrat's on your new home, the right person will make it happen for you. Perfect example though where a fiberglass pool may be a challenge just because of the size. Not all pool types are right for every family.

    I forgot to mention. A fiberglass pool may be carried like a suitcase, so you don't need the width of the pool for your path, just the depth. For example, a 15' x 30' pool with a depth of 6' could pass through a 7' wide opening as long as you had the height to pick it up and leaving a little clearance. I have friends that crane pools over the house every time, not me, I've always found a way around. The day will come....

    No, we need the water to come in fast so we can backfill at the same time. The cost is negligible, roughly $300 per truck. Time is the most valuable thing we have, and one of the few things you can never get back.

  • @AlbertGroup

    @AlbertGroup

    The biggest benefit of fiberglass is that it is flexible, the biggest Achilles Heel of fiberglass is that it is flexible. You are 100% correct that the shell needs support, that is why water and backfill are added together in a certain way as to not deform the shell. The shell is somewhere around 1/4" thick or maybe a little more. The crazy thing is that the buried fiberglass storage tanks for the oil fields are thinner. They bulk up pools unnecessarily for client perception. The oil fields have engineers on staff that know what is required, but homeowners want to see thicker. If a shell becomes too thick it has a tendency to not flex anymore and crack easier. This is especially true for the gelcoat thickness.
