"I never give a 100% review to any company because nothing and no one is ever perfect but in this case I would go so far as to give 97%. The end result was great and they made my pool look brand new. 100% kudos to the worker who gingerly cut away from the tiles I wanted to keep. His attention to detail was amazing and he did most of it on his belly, on the hottest day of the summer. In hindsight I feel guilty and should have just gutted the entire thing and chosen new tile. I apologize to them for my fool hearty choice. That said it was a job beautifully done. I decided to add a safety handle by the steps into the pool, since our friends are getting older and need something to hold onto while entering and exiting the pool. Completion of this took longer than hoped for, presumably due to unavailability, but once received and installed it was done well. The team worked well together and I think they did a reasonable job with daily clean up. Other than the safety bar installation, the job was completed in a timely fashion and the project manager, James, was a good and timely communicator, something very important in my opinion. We waited too long to address this resurfacing job and considering that we didn’t commit until late in the pool season, mid summer, we were pleased that the job was done relatively fast so we still got some swim time in. Looking forward to summer 2025 to reap the reward of the teams hard work. I would not hesitate to hire James and his team again. If you hire them I hope you have the same good experience."

"Hiring Spectrum Pool & Landscape was the best decision my husband and I made for a pool builder. John Knight the architect was amazing he designed the pool and our backyard exactly how we wanted it. He knew how much this backyard meant to me and my family. He has always been hands on, constantly in contact with us, letting us know what is going on and who is coming over and what they will be working on. They have done their best to keep costs down, with never diverting from the original plans. We have been so happy with the work they did to our backyard, we hired them to redo our front yard. The project should be completely finished in about 4 weeks. Which I will then update this review with pictures. They are extremely professional, they show up when they tell you they will be thereâ ¦.and only accept money when each stage of the project is complete. I highly recommend John and Chuck Archuletta!"

"I usually do not write too many reviews but I have been very pleased with Coral Pool and SPA company that I had to do this. Recently, I had my pool replaster including tiles, new skimmer, light and also reduced the pool depth. First of all, the price was very competitive and reasonable for the work and Jose the owner was not trying to up sale anything and provided detail pricing for all work items. They finished the project with high quality even 1 week earlier than what was promised as part of our signed document. Overall real happy with the project's outcome. Also the crew cleaned up after their work every day. I would suggest to do your own research but I definitely suggest to give a try to Coral Pool and SPA, you won't regret it. I know that dealing with some of the contractors is real pain but not with this company. Good Day!!"

Pool constructions and installations FAQs
The average cost of an above-ground pool is between $1,100 and $5,700. Costs will vary depending on the type of pool you install. The low end of the price range includes a DIY kit for around $800 and goes up to about $15,000 for a custom pool with extra features like a deck and water features. Building an above-ground pool is much faster than installing an inground one. The cost tends to be much lower for an above-ground pool than for an inground pool because there’s less labor involved, especially when it comes to excavation and running plumbing and electrical lines.
Installing an inground pool costs around $55,000, on average. The typical price range is between $39,000 and $70,000, depending on the size and type of pool and accessibility of the site. This project requires an experienced pool installation contractor as the project usually involves extensive excavation, plumbing, electrical, concrete, and careful grading of the concrete or pavers around the pool.
Adding a spa to a pool is worth it if you use it enough. Adding a built-in spa to an inground pool can cost between $15,000 and $20,000, on top of installing the pool. A separate hot tub costs between $5,000 and $8,000. These prices will vary depending on the hot tub's size, type, and features. Additional costs include maintenance, electricity, and plumbing.
From start to finish, building an inground pool takes anywhere from two to four months. Factors that impact time to completion include any weather delays, material delays or shortages, scheduling conflicts, and any unforeseen challenges. The project may take most of the pool season, depending on where you live. Because of this, it’s a good idea to start getting estimates and finding a qualified pool company at least a year before your anticipated installation. Spring and summer is the busy season for pool contractors, which impacts their availability as projects are typically booked for several weeks if not months.
