Here at Aqua Care we specialized in new pool construction, renovation and landscaping. Our company does not provide any pool liner or install pool liners. We also do not deal with any fiberglass pools or fiberglass finish. services. We will provide our clients with our creative and best service, with any related pool and landscape projects and services. Proudly award winning.

"Working with Irit and Raul and their team was a dream. From beginning to end, they treated our pool build as if it they were doing it for themselves. They took meticulous care with our property, including making it possible for our dog and toddler to continue to safely use the yard throughout construction, and cleaning dust and debris from the site daily. Their attention to detail was evident from the very beginning, when they cleaned up permit filing errors made by our previous contractor and engineer. They provided clear and accurate estimates and cost breakdowns. Their team showed up reliably 5 days a week (and sometimes Saturday’s!) and there was visible progress made every single day— it was clear they were moving along efficiently, and when Raul walked us through nuts and bolts of the process, we saw that he was doing the highest quality of work (even the company we eventually hired to maintain the pool commented on how well it was built!). We started the pool build intending to do the landscaping at another time, but we saw quickly that Irit’s expertise would elevate the whole project, and contracted Aqua Care for landscaping as well. We have never finished a construction project on our home with such warm feelings for and full confidence in the work done by our contractors. We could recommend Aqua Care more highly!"

We've been in business since 1991, providing honest, reliable and competent pool equipment repair and installation. All equipment is sold at wholesale prices with installation built into the sale price.

"We have experienced very inconsistent service at the Pasadena location. The service personnel have been changed four times within the past year, and each transition caused delays as new staff took time to get up to speed. Additionally, one of the two pools has not been properly maintained for several weeks."

Sanchez Pool Construction is committed to excellence every aspect of our business. We uphold a standard of integrity bound by fairness, honesty and personal responsibility. Our distinction is the quality of service we bring to our customers. Accurate knowledge of our trade combined with ability is what makes us true professionals. Above all, we are watchful of our customers interests, and make their concerns the basis of our business.

"After 20 years our pool and equipment were in dire need of rehabilitation. Our pool pump and filter went out in the same week, and we knew it was going to be expensive, so we decided to have the pool redone at the same time it desperately needed it. We had several contractors out to give us a bid, and Sanchez pools were the most punctual, professional, and honest of all the contractors we had out to the house. Thinking I would save myself a few bucks, we gave Sanchez Pools the remodel of the pool and I decided I would piecemeal the pool equipment from Craigslist. I found and bought a new pump, filter, found a cheap installer, and thought I was all set. To keep this short-winded I'll skip the bulk of the drama that unfolded and fast forward a bit. The Craigslist effort turned into a total nightmare. I ended up paying thousands and a month later the pool equipment was still not installed or functioning properly. Granted Sanchez pools were on top of the pool remodel, they were just about done, and I still don't have functioning pool equipment. I swallowed my pride, called Sanchez Pools, and told them what I had done after not giving them the work in the first place. Rather than getting the "I told you So" Kim showed up the same day, gave me a quote to replace all the equipment (for the 2nd time in 30 days) I gave her the go-ahead, and at this point the pool is complete and the new plaster is waiting for water (not recommended) Granted, I was not on the schedule, and equipment is tough to get a hold of now for the entire construction industry. Plaster needs water soon after installation, so I made my problem Kimâ s problem. She could have taken a shot at me, and I deserved it, but instead she jumped into action. Within 48 hours all new equipment was installed, Filter, Pump motor, heater, and all the wiring/plumbing that goes with it, the pool was now filling with water, and I was the lucky guy that got to pay twice for equipment and installation. Had I just let Sanchez Pools do their thing in the first place it would have saved a ton of time, energy, headaches, and cash. The team at Sanchez Pools are thoughtful, considerate, punctual, knowledgeable, professional, reasonable, and all this in a market where you can cherry-pick your customers, charge a premium, and don't need to deal with major nightmare customers like ME. First, I would like to say thank you to Kim and the whole team at Sanchez Pools. You really went above and beyond the call of duty. We were so fortunate to have you on our job. It could have gone bad a dozen different ways, but you guys are just a class act period. My advice while scrolling through potential contractors to choose for your pool project. I've already done the legwork, had 5 bids, tried to save a few bucks by piecemealing the project, and at the end of the day, I could have had it ALL done in one single call and saved thousands. Call the folks at Sanchez Pools, and rest easy knowing you are in good hands. I would like to add that they are not friends/family, nor they did not ask me to write a review they just earned it, plain and simple."

Install Above Ground Pools questions, answered by experts

The regulations for pool fence heights vary by state, so be sure to research what the legal, minimum height is in your area before purchasing or installing a fence. Though every region is different, generally a pool fence must be at least 4 and ½ feet high. If you’re unsure whether you need a fence around your pool, and how high that fence should be, contact a local pool enclosure expert to help you successfully, and safely, move forward.

Most importantly, you should never cut corners when building a pool. Whether it’s an in-ground or aboveground, poorly constructed pools are dangerous to both the swimmers and your property. Leaks can even lead to home foundation damage. While you can DIY smaller elements of pool installation, always hire a contractor to oversee the process.

The life span of a screen on a pool cage depends on the material used:

  • Fiberglass screens last from 10 to 15 years.

  • Aluminum screens last 15 to 20 years.

  • Polyester screens last 20 to 30 years.

  • Stainless steel screens last 30 years or more.

Increases living space and adds value to the home through enhanced utility.

Small animals, particularly rats and mice, like to burrow inside pool heaters. To keep them out, seal any entry points with caulk or steel wool. Then, place mothballs inside or around your pool heater. As a final measure of protection, you can cover the pool heater in hardware cloth or wood paneling to further block entry points.
