I would think you need a permit either way

I think you def need a permit. Doesn't matter who puts it up. You need to be approved by the town to put up a pool. That's what the permit is for.

true and i have no problem getting one but the permit paperwork i found online from the town just doesnt look like it matches my needs, i will go down there as well but didnt know if i would have an issue since it isnt through a company

Re: Pool ? (getting one from someone, not store)

you will need to file a permit with the town

the only difference is you have to do all the work, not a pool company for you

the only way I think you can go around getting one, is if its a temporary pool as in you take it down at the end of the summer, but I'm not really sure. my parents did this when I was very little, but it was just a 3 foot pool. I don't believe they got a permit. after a few years, they got tired of taking it down so they got a bigger one and got a permit for it.
