"Wow, this is a great company to do business with. Very professional and the communications during the Process was the best. Our pool looks like new again. We had reviewed several bids and choose Angles because of the thoroughness of the proposal and the review to explain everything. They answered all our questions spot on. I would highly recommend Angles Pools. Alan"

"The crew was a bit late to get started, but did a good job once they arrived. They carried my stuff up to the 3rd floor since the elevator was very small. 
Had some trouble putting the bed back together but overall a fine job. Some damage to my items, but don't know where along the line that happened. It could have happened in transit.

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Timeless Pool and team for the installation of our new pool, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the initial consultation to the final touches, the professionalism displayed was nothing short of impressive. Tom and his team are true craftspeople, demonstrating an incredible attention to detail that sets them apart from others in the industry. Every aspect of the pool design was meticulously planned and executed, and the final result not only met but exceeded our expectations. The craftsmanship is evident in every tile and finish, literally, creating a stunning centerpiece for our backyard. Communication throughout the process was seamless. Tom kept us informed at every stage, promptly addressing any questions or concerns we had. His willingness to engage with us made the entire experience feel collaborative and personalized. It was clear that he genuinely cared about our vision and experience. Overall, I highly recommend Timeless Pool and team for anyone considering a pool installation. Their combination of expertise, attention to detail, and commitment to customer satisfaction is truly commendable. Our new pool has transformed our outdoor space into a beautiful space, and we are grateful to have chosen such a dedicated team for this project. If you're looking for professionalism and quality, look no further than Timeless Pool! Thanks again Timeless Pools"

"I bought the Angie's List special for a 3D drawing for our bathroom remodel.
We have not started any work yet and not sure if we will go with General Construction to do the work, still getting other bids, Project Manager was great to work with and his design gave us a really good idea of  what our bathroom could look like.

Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

No, shock and chlorine are not the same thing, though they are related and both are used for pool maintenance. Regular chlorine, often in the form of tablets, is a sanitizer used for routine, day-to-day maintenance to keep a steady chlorine level. Pool shock, however, is a highly concentrated dose of chlorine used periodically for a more intense cleaning. It rapidly raises chlorine levels to fix issues like cloudy water or algae growth and also eliminates chloramines, which are byproducts of regular chlorination. Because their purposes and concentrations differ, they are not interchangeable, and proper pool care typically requires using both.

Off-season pool-building prices often align with the time of year you're least likely to use a pool. Many contractors offer deals in the late fall and winter to bolster the slow time of year. However, if you live in an area with freezing winters, you'll need to wait beyond the final frost and threats of extreme weather.

To find a leak in a small pool, place a few drops of food coloring in a random area. If the food coloring flows out, you've found your leak. However, this can be time-consuming and impractical in larger pools. The best option is to hire a pool repair specialist with ultrasonic equipment.

Losing some water from splashing and evaporation is normal. However, if you notice a rapid drop in the water level or are adding water more frequently than usual, you might have a leak. Other common signs of a pool leak include:

  • Unexplained soft, mushy, or wet spots in the yard.

  • Cracks in the pool's structure or falling tiles.

  • Higher-than-normal water bills.

  • Persistent algae growth or water discoloration.

  • Standing water near the pump, pipes, or other pool equipment.

Generally, you do not need to drain your pool to convert it to a saltwater system. The main exception is if you have used an antibacterial agent containing polyhexamethylene biguanide to sanitize your pool, as these sanitation products do not mix well with saltwater systems. If this is the case, you will need to start fresh. You can either drain the pool or treat the existing water with a high dose of chlorine to remove the antibacterial agent. If you choose the chlorine treatment, wait several days to allow the chlorine to work before proceeding with the conversion. If you are unsure whether this applies to your pool, consult a pool technician.
