This is what happens when a real estate agent promises the pool will boost the home’s value—but forgets to mention it hasn’t been cleaned since 2015. Still, this case isn’t a total disaster. A skilled crew steps in, completely drains and cleans it, strips everything down, preps the concrete, and installs a vinyl liner that gives the pool a fresh, polished finish. This process actually adds another 10 years of life to the pool. Vinyl liners prevent algae buildup and can last more than 15 years. But with a restoration cost of $10,000, you have to wonder—does the value gained really outweigh the money spent?
