"Pete has provided the ultimate in customer service.   He is very accessible and attentive to the needs of a new pool, and goes above and beyond to be sure that his customer's are satisfied.   Over the years, we have had exposure to many others, and he is the best by far!  He provides recommendations and provides added services as needed (as we had some issues with the original installer).
Thanks Pete for such a great experience - we look forward to the weekly service for years to come!

"This was one of the most frustrating experiences that I've had as a homeowner and a review that I write with very mixed emotions.  I will start by saying that my pool looks great and I'm overall satisfied with the work done.  However, the reason that I went with this company was the reviews on this site talked about how involved the owner was with the process and the great communication and service.  This was not my experience at all.  I don't want someone having the same experience that I did because they didn't have a counterpoint.
Shannon the owner was not involved at all.  Subcontractors did every part of the work and he didn't show up at all except to fix issues caused by poor workmanship on the pavers(they were sloping toward the pool in 3 places) and drains.  During a job like that, communication is an important factor to the homeowner.  The Pool company may have done hundreds of pools, but this is my first. We never knew when there would be work done or not and couldn't seem to get any information without repeated phone calls. When I discover an issue like the sloping of the tiles which is of major concern, I would like to be able to discuss it with the owner as the installation people tried to pull a slight of hand trick on me with a level and then exited stage right without fixing it at all.  However on most calls, I just got voicemail which normally isn't a big deal.  The problem is that to this day, neither Shannon or his salesperson John has EVER called me back.   I don't like having to chase someone to get a response.  I wouldn't say they were avoiding my calls as they were always received warmly, so maybe they just never check their voicemail.
It's been a very frustrating experience and it may be that they were busy with another job and I got lost in the shuffle.  However, my money is still green and I'd like to think that my job, small as it may be, is a little more important than I was made to feel.   
All in all, I'm pretty satisfied. The price was good, the pool looks good, their communication just stinks.

"My pool was in need of maintenance and service so I contacted Jeff.  He accessed my pool and determined what needed to be repaired and/or replaced to get it in good working condition.  When he services it weekly, he does a thorough job and the inside of the pool looks much better and the water is now crystal clear.  Jeff is knowledgeable, professional and takes pride in his work.  In the short time he has been taking care of my pool, it looks great.  I am so pleased that I found Jeff and would highly recommend him for your pool needs.  Thanks, Deborah G.

Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

The total time to install an inground pool typically ranges from 8 weeks to 4 months. This timeline can be influenced by several factors, including permitting, site preparation, and the construction process itself.

Key phases and their typical durations include:

  • Permits: Obtaining necessary permits can take anywhere from two to six weeks.

  • Excavation and Site Preparation: This phase takes about a week but can be extended by problematic soil, unexpected ground conditions, or the need to move underground utility lines.

  • Construction: The actual build, including plumbing and electrical work, often takes one to two months. The pool material is a major factor here; a concrete pool needs about 30 days to cure, while installing a fiberglass or vinyl liner is much faster.

External factors can also cause significant delays:

  • Contractor Availability: Spring and summer are busy seasons, and high demand can lead to long waitlists, potentially adding months to your start date. It is often recommended to start planning and getting estimates up to a year in advance.

  • Other Delays: Weather, material shortages, complex designs, and other unforeseen challenges can extend the project timeline.

Depending on where you live and the demand for pools and spools, a spool may increase your property value and make your home more appealing to potential buyers. It’s worth looking at installation, maintenance, insurance, and safety costs to see if the increase in value is worth the cost of installing a spool.

You can check if your pool is bonded by looking for a copper wire that connects to the motor and pumps and then extends into the ground. However, if you’re unfamiliar with electrical wiring, contacting a pool electrician to inspect the motor and pumps is safest. An electrician can check the system and determine if it is up to code and meets all swimming pool bonding requirements.

How long a pool liner lasts depends on the type of pool. Most in-ground pool liners last between six and 12 years, while aboveground pool liners last anywhere from six to 10 years. You can extend the life of your pool liner by maintaining proper pool chemistry, adding chemicals individually to avoid staining the liner, using a pool cover to protect it from the sun, and keeping sharp objects away from it.

Some pool professionals recommend adding an extra layer of comfort and protection between your pool and the vinyl liner. Made from a range of plastic blends, these liners can absorb moisture, allow the pool liner to breathe, and act as an extra barrier for pests, burrowing animals, and mildew. They also provide an extra layer of comfort for swimmers.
