"My contractor, Todd, was beyond excellent! He was extremely professional and helpful! His maneurism was very pleasant, and I enjoyed working with him on what needed to be done at my house! Todd put my mind at ease because I was extremely upset with the job that was done from a previous contractor. Todd was able to fix their mistakes, and he did it in a very prompt and courteous way. I feel that Todd went above and beyond for me. He did research on handicap ramps and found an economical and great handicap ramp. He traveled to pick it up and put it in for me. Not to mention all the great work that he had to undo from the awful job my previous contractor did. With all the work that Todd did, I found him extremely financially reasonable and economical! I will be hiring Todd to do more projects around my house! I fully recommend Todd to anybody. I have extreme confidence and faith in his abilities Todd has great work ethics and is a pleasure to work with! I look forward to working with him on my future projects around my house!"

"One oven doesn't work at all ( my choice, see above), the "working" oven was never calibrated properly so using it is hit or miss. It's time to call American Home Shield to see about replacing the entire unit. I'm waiting to finish other home projects before calling them. I don't know if I'll request Greenway again."

Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

DIY is not recommended due to its complexity. Professional installation ensures proper fitting and longevity.

You can have an automatic pool cover with a saltwater pool, but it’s important to know that the small levels of salt in your pool can eventually corrode the metal parts of the pool cover. This means you’ll have to keep your unit clean, especially the reels, pulleys, and tracks. As with any other pool cover, test your chlorine levels weekly and keep them on the lower end of the threshold.

You don’t need to drain the whole pool to patch a pool liner, but be prepared to dive in with your swimsuit and goggles to patch a leak below the water level. By draining the pool, you can actually expose the liner to more harsh conditions, like wind and sunlight, that cause the tears to worsen. It’s best to use the ink test and waterproof patches or tape to identify the leak and patch it up.

Your contractor will need several days to several weeks as far as a timeline to install your semi-inground pool goes. Adapting an aboveground pool to be semi-inground by excavating and partially burying the liner, for example, will only take three to five days, while installing an in-ground pool with a poured concrete liner and building up the land around it will require several weeks. Keep in mind that the process of hiring a pool contractor and applying for permits can add several additional weeks to the total timeline.

You shouldn’t swim in a pool with algae. When there’s algae, there’s also bacteria that’s feeding on the algae. Also, algae-infested pool water is often chemically imbalanced, which means germs like Cryptosporidium, Giardia, and E.coli could be present. These germs can cause a range of illnesses from gastrointestinal issues, to rashes, and respiratory problems.

The best thing to do is to get rid of the algae first, test and balance the water, and then you can enjoy swimming without any worries.
