"Fantastic. I switched to Sterling some two years ago for both pools. Professional. Clean pool. Accurate on repair estimates (for things like the sweeper). They also installed my pool equipment at my current course after we did a major remodel. About $14,000 (back in spring of 2015). Everything works great. The owner is very responsive."

"Price quote was much lower than others, reviews from others very good, and BBB check showed he is BBB member with no complaints. Work was performed on time, included jackhammering out old skimmer from pool deck, installation of new skimmer, patch concrete, cleanup and rebalance pool water. Very pleased with the results."

"Vince reviewed our property and the work that needed to be done.  In 2 days he contacted us with his estimate.  We felt his price was very fair and hired him for the job.  He was able to get to us quickly since we were worried about the spindly tree or the neighbors overhanging tree falling on our house during the upcoming winter storms.  His crew moved any yard decorations, solar lights, planters, or anything else that might get broken.  We have artificial turf under the tall tree and were afraid it would be damaged.  Vince's crew was able to cut the large limbs and ease them to the ground without harming the turf.  We had another small tree that needed removed that my husband was going to take out. Since they were able to get to our work so quickly he didn't have time to remove the tree.  Vince's crew took it out for us at no extra charge even though it wasn't in the original estimate.  With all the work that needed to be done and the clean up his crew was able to do everything in one day. They worked quickly and efficiently.  They were thorough in cleaning up all the debris and even took out old leaves that had fallen under the hedges.  They swept up any leaves or debris that were left on the yard, concrete, and driveway.  They were also very careful around our pool area.  These guys worked very much as a team in accomplishing the task while keeping safety in mind.

"Did an excellent job - on time, professional, quick.  Advised of other repairs we may want to consider in the future but they weren't critical or urgent.  They didn't push anything but were just keeping us informed.
What I really like about Poco is I have called them about many things relating to the pool solar, which they handled, and our electrical solar, which they did not.  Regardless of which one I was asking about their customer service has always been outstanding.  They have given me advice on what to look for and ask other contractors about for services they don't provide.  All of their personnel, whether on the phone or the actual service providers, are unfailingly polite, helpful, and friendly.  I would highly recommend them and will definitely keep them as our service provider.

"They did an excellent job. The only issue was that after starting to chip away at the old plaster, they called me and told me that my pool had been replastered before. Therefore it had 2 layers of old plaster. That meant more work to chip it all the way down to the gunite. That would cost $1,500 more! I had chosen PPP because of their low bid and good reviews on Angie's List. I was very upset. Jorge said that he could replaster without stripping down to the the gunite. I told him that other companies specified in their estimate and quot;strip down to the guniteand quot;. He agreed to drop the surcharge to $1,200.
Notwithstanding this, PPP were still cheaper and did a superb job.
My recommendation to others is to make the contractor be very specific as to his assumptions and state what are the incremental costs if these assumptions turn out to be incorrect.Jorge is a very pleasant man who is a pleasure to deal with.

"Bill and his two helpers worked very hard to get all the work done in two days and actually worked 4-hours extra at no charge. They were on time, worked diligently and really did a good job, above and beyond my expectation. They even worked on the ceiling in the
closet in the master bedroom! I don't I could have found a better team, quality of work, and value. I would definitely hire them again,
thank you Finepoint Painting!

"Our house remodeling required three separate visits from Blaylock Movers. On this third time, Tim and his son-in-law arrived on time, as usual. They proceeded to move the boxes and furniture with care as to not damage the newly installed carpet and newly painted walls. Care was also taken to shield one piece of furniture from the rain as it was transported. It was first class. If I had more moving to do, I would not hesitate to contact Blaylock Movers again."

Install Above Ground Pools questions, answered by experts

How often you should add water to your pool depends on how quickly the water evaporates. Keep an eye on your skimmer box, if you have one. Top up the water in your pool if you notice the water levels are lower than the bottom third of your skimmer. This helps prevent damage to your pump. 

Replace all the water in your pool every five to seven years, depending on how often you use your pool, the weather, and whether or not you close your pool for the winter.

Pool leaks most commonly occur at joints or where different materials meet. The most frequent leak spots include:

  • The Pool Skimmer: Where the plastic skimmer meets the pool's liner or shell.

  • The Pool Liner: Tears can develop in vinyl liners, especially those between 5 and 20 years old. Leaks also occur around the liner's edge.

  • Fittings and Accessories: Areas around return lines, the main drain, and pool lights are common culprits.

  • Pool Equipment: The pump, filter, and filter housing can also leak.

While leaks in underground pipes are less common, they can be costly to fix. It's usually best to check the more common spots before investigating the plumbing system.

The number of gallons in your pool will determine how much chlorine you’ll need to add to your pool for the first time. Chlorine levels should fall between 1 and 3 ppm. It's crucial to read the instructions on your chlorine packet to determine the number of tablets to put in the water based on your pool's capacity.

It’s a good idea to wait at least 24 hours after opening your pool before you swim in it. Pool opening often involves shocking the water, and the chemical levels need to come down a bit before it’s safe to swim. You can continue testing your water pH and chlorine levels if you’re in a rush. It’s wise to wait until your chlorine levels drop to under four parts per million (ppm) and you have a water pH of between 7.2 and 7.8. You can artificially lower your water pH to speed up the process.

It is a good idea to brush a pool before shocking. Brushing the sides and floor loosen up anything that is growing on the surface, such as algae. It is then easier for the pool shock to kill the contaminants because more of it will come in contact with the chemicals.
