Concrete Slab cost

(1/3) > >>

rpabech:
I purchased the Hot Spring Grandee 2019 last weekend and now working on getting the Electrical work and Concrete Slab done. I live in Massachusetts (expensive around here), but I was not expecting to be that much. Most people here mention cost for a cement slab  (10x10 and 6'') to be around 1k or a little more. My back yard is flat and easy access and the quotes I am getting are around 3.5k (got one around 3.5 and another for 4k) which is absurd. I feel like since I live in a nice area people tend to charge more because of that. Any one in MA which has a good contractor to provide the contact?

I am definitely thinking on cancelling my order if this would be the price for the concrete slab (Electrical is around 1.5k which is what I expected).

Thanks

Unfortunately my guys won’t go up that far. Guessing you bought at NE Spas. Denise or anybody up there have any referrals for you?  I’m down on the southcoast and my Inground pool installers do them on the weekends for me. You won’t get it done for $1000 around here but it shouldn’t cost 4K. That seems real excessive to me. Have you thought about doing pavers?  10x10 pad would be a quick job for someone. Up in your area you need to order a minimum of 7 yards of concrete on a truck which gets you to about $1000 plus prep work, rebar and forming it.

The only reason I am looking into the concrete is because the Pavers can move (I do have a Paver Patio which does move a little due the soil every 3-4 years I have to readjust them) and also the Grandee model do require a concrete slab in the manual (and I am not sure if this will affect warranty or not).
I was ok to pay till $2000 (maybe a little more) for it due the higher cost of living, but definetely not $3.5k+

Yes, I bought at NE SPA (which seems to be the more reputable dealer around the area).

I will give Denise a call.
