Is Resurfacing A Pool cheaper in smaller cities?

Two or three written quotes are enough to see the real market range. Compare the same scope side by side, and ask each provider what is excluded and what would change the price after the quote is accepted. The answer can shift with the Ontario market, so check locally.
