"The tech Johny was very knowledgeable and very helpful with our walk-in tub. He also gave us some tips on how to care for the tub as well as recommended products to stop a small leak. I would definitely recommend this vendor."

"JB does amazing work. He is honestly and reliable. I not only used him once but TWICE. When I first bought my home I just wanted a small cheap Walmart pool. I called JB he was at my home first thing and my pool was completed by lunch on the date that was provided. Well that pool was an exactly that cheap the pump went out after just a few months (nothing to do with JB). I then had a much bigger project to take down and reassemble a 24 ft round dough boy pool. Now this project took a few days breaking the pool down moving to new location level out the dirt ect. J B and his crew were amazing and my new beautiful pool was all ready to go in just a few days. If you need anything pool I wouldnâ  t highly recommend JB!!! I have referred him to friends and family."

Pool Construction and Installation FAQs, answered by experts

Soil testers and licensed excavators are often the professionals you hire if you need a perc test. In some cases, structural engineers will also be able to conduct the test for you. In many municipalities, you’ll need your professional on-site to dig and fill the holes with water, as well as a representative from your local building department or health department. That representative is the individual who will determine whether your test passes or fails.

ALTA/ACSM surveys are the most comprehensive type of land survey and, as such, tend to be the most expensive. These surveys have standardized guidelines and reports and are used in many kinds of real estate transactions to ensure consistent and accurate information is available for properties.

If you can’t find any records online, you’ll need to contact your county clerk’s office to do further research. They should have property records on file, or can at least point you in the right direction of who to contact. You can also speak with your neighbors about when their houses were built because they were likely built around the same time.

Above all, the downside to building a new house is a longer timeline. You need several months to finish the build, depending on the supply chain and labor availability in the meantime. Building a home compared to buying one is also more expensive, both in the building process and when it comes to mortgage rates and property taxes.

If you or your mortgage lender think your land survey needs to be more accurate, double-check the survey report and get at least a second opinion from the original surveyor and an inspector, if possible. Although it’s unlikely, even reputable surveying companies can make mistakes. An inaccurate survey can cause problems down the road in the case of any property line disputes, so it’s best to resolve any inaccuracies as quickly as possible.
