Upside Down Pool

As the poster humorously pointed out, the homeowner in this case had just “one job” to do, and unfortunately, they completely mishandled it. Draining a pool is a complex and time-consuming process, often requiring professional assistance, which can cost a few hundred dollars. While the expense may seem steep, it’s crucial not to attempt it as a DIY project unless you have the necessary expertise. This particular homeowner’s experience serves as a stark reminder of why professional help is essential. In a mishap, the homeowner inadvertently drained the pool into their backyard, leading to extensive flooding and significant water damage to the home. The remediation and repair costs for this incident are likely to run into the tens of thousands of dollars, encompassing tasks such as draining the yard and addressing the water damage in the house. Undoubtedly, the homeowner’s family isn’t too pleased with the outcome of this DIY endeavor.
