"I used to perform most of my own pool maintenance including chemicals, filter cleaning and fixing equipment such as pool sweepers so I understand what goes into a pool service. Unfortunately with an ailing back and some long work hours, I hired Luis to take over my DE filter cleaning. That was 8 years ago and since he has replaced 2 different pool pumps and installed a new DE filter. I cannot be happier with the service that he provides. Luis is a hard working, honest individual but most importantly he has expert knowledge and deep experience with pool maintenance and repairs. I highly recommend R1 Pools as your next pool company."

"We are beyond satisfied clients that hired SES builders did with the replacement of all our existing windows with new ones, the installation of new roof and some stucco repairs and new exterior paint. Eli and his workers finished all the work on time and without any delays while they were very easygoing, hardworking people and definitely trustworthy. Eli had an amazing energy and very friendly personality. He made sure to explain to us all the details of the work and the benefits of the windows and roof that he recommended us to have. All the questions that we had (even the smallest one), was answered in a professional manner and in a fairly time frame. We recommend all the people at SES builders because they did a wonderful job and we are looking forward to hire them again."

"Sergio is professional and reliable. He missed a few weeks here and there, but communicated with me and I appreciate that. My pool was sparkling clean after each service. I would still have him as my pool service but I sold my house and moved.

"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.

"Work turned out really well.  We had subsequent problems with the gate, which likely were a design issue.  The guys returned promptly to fix.  The first time was free.  The second time I paid them.  I'm thinking of having them install another enclosure on the property.

"We contacted California Smartscape to give us an estimate on redoing our front and back yards. They had been destroyed by putting a pool in and by a large tree in the front yard that damaged the hardscape. We spoke at length to Richard and Nick about our budget and our ideas for the yard. The proposal they came back with was within our budget and had all the elements we wanted. We were pleasantly surprised because we had contacted others and their proposals were way above budget and did not have the elements we wanted. The crews that came out to do the work were wonderful. They were professional, considerate and respectful. Steve was a great project manager who attended to things as they came up during the work. Ruben was a good crew supervisor. He had a good relationship with his workers. Now that our project is complete, we couldn’t be happier. The whole yard has been transformed into a natural landscape with easy to care for low water plants, low voltage LED lighting and drip irrigation. We even have a small artificial grass lawn in back! If you need landscape work, this is the company I would recommend."

"We have had the pleasure of working on multiple projects with Top-Pro Home Builders, and we couldn't be happier with the results. The most recent and significant undertaking was a complete kitchen renovation and updating the flooring throughout our entire house. Throughout the project, Elon, our main point of contact, did an exceptional job coordinating the various aspects and keeping us informed about the progress and any questions that arose. The kitchen renovation involved extensive work, including bringing the plumbing and electrical systems up to current standards. Elon skillfully managed all the necessary inspections with the city and maintained a high level of professionalism throughout the process. We were pleased to discover that there were no unexpected costs, except for a few items beyond their control, and the project was completed within our budget and on schedule. We are delighted to share before and after pictures of our kitchen renovation, which showcase the exceptional work done by Top-Pro Home Builders. From cabinet installation to electrical, plumbing, HVAC, wall painting, flooring installation, baseboard updates, and door frame replacements throughout the house, their team demonstrated outstanding craftsmanship. Furthermore, they even connected us with a fantastic architect who guided us through the permitting process. We have every intention of engaging Top-Pro Home Builders for any future projects we have for our home. Their professionalism, trustworthiness, reliability, exceptional workmanship, and availability to offer advice make them a rare gem in Los Angeles County, where contractors can often be unreliable and unreliable."

Install Above Ground Pools questions, answered by experts

If you put too much chlorine in your pool, it can make the pH level more acidic, creating a health risk. You might experience symptoms like nausea, dizziness, vomiting, skin rashes, and irritation in the eyes, nose, throat, and lungs. To lower the chlorine level, you can turn off your chlorinator or chlorine feeder, add more water to dilute the pool, or remove the cover to let sunlight naturally reduce the chlorine.

Pool remodel costs average over $9,000, so what about converting your pool to salt water instead? It is certainly an investment on the front end, but homeowners stand to save money on maintenance by switching to a saltwater pool. You will need to replace the salt cell every five years or so, but you will not have to clean your pool as frequently, either. The smell of chlorine also will not be on your swimsuits or skin, which is a benefit many appreciate.

The most straightforward approach to filling an in-ground swimming pool is to connect a garden hose from your exterior tap. However, this is not the best idea if there's water scarcity or restricted rationing. If so, you'll want to make alternate arrangements, like getting a water delivery service to fill your pool.

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.

If your pool’s pH level is too high, chlorine won’t be as effective. Since chlorine is responsible for sanitation and keeping bacteria out of your pool, a high pH level could create a higher risk for bacterial diseases. It can also make you more susceptible to rashes and infections (like swimmer’s ear). Need to lower your pool’s pH? You can do it yourself for between $5 and $40.
