Agree, That seems to be some of the draw backs, It has its +/-, We have done a lot of tree work as they were getting a lot of tree debris in the pool, The house had been unoccupied for the last two yrs as the former owner, She had dementia and was moved to a rehab facility, The yard was being maintained, And the pool was closed for several years but has been open the last two with a pool company maintaining it once a week so that was a plus, But there was a lot of overgrowth and pruning that needed to be done that had not been done in years, The biggest issue was there was a crab apple tree that hung out over the pool so i probably don't need to tell you the problems that created, Took care of that though.
