"Last year Poolside Designs were forced to come out to our home and replace the LED pool lights which were still under warranty. After some lengthy back and forth they agreed to do so. However, after about 7 months, those supposedly new lights failed to turn on ever again. Once again I contacted Pool Side Design and their representative, Derek Dixon, about replacing these lights. Derek came out and confirmed the lights were broken and needed to be replaced despite seeing no reason why they might have stopped working. There was some confusion as to whether or not this could be another warranty fix or not, but rather than hassle them again over this issue, I simply asked if they could give a quote to replace the lights. I have two deaf and sight-impaired dogs that rely on the pool being lit, so it was important this issue got fixed quickly, regardless of price. On 9/30 Derek said he would have me a quote the following week. I never heard from him. Requests for callbacks went unanswered On 11/2 Derek finally replied to an e-mail and said quote, I will get a quote to you. Trying to get a deal throuh our rep. I will call him again now. (spelling error his). The quote never came. On 12/1 after asking again, Derek wrote quote, Sorry Stephen. I called him again Monday. I asked him to work out a cash deal on the lights. I will have a number for you in the morning. On 12/13 I asked for an update and received no reply. The following week I called and asked Derek to call me back, I was assured he would, but he did not. On 12/30 I e-mailed again and that e-mail has never been replied to. In my e-mails, I was polite and professional. I was not pushy or rude throughout the entire e-mail conversation. Please understand this company will happily come out and charge you big money to put in a pool, however, that is all they care about. They want to secure the big contract, put in the pool, then refuse to ever service it, honor their warranties, or return phone calls. I would imagine, like most pool companies, Pool Side Design is booked up for the entire year installing new pools, as such, servicing previous customers or following up as promised is not as lucrative, so they simply ignore those requests. I cannot recommend this company, their business practices are suspect. Let us be honest, Derek Dixon was e-mailing me trying to negotiate a cash deal for the lights. Who knows what kind of shenanigans or lights I would be purchasing under these shady circumstances? It seems the previous replacement lights could not be repaired under warranty, now I wonder why? We might never know."

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.
