"APS installed a River Pools 16x36 fiberglass pool in our backyard between May and July 2023. While there were some delays with some of the patio materials, we were very pleased with the final result and the pricing was competitive. Keith was very responsive and helped us with getting our pool balanced and ready for swimming."

"I brought the damaged lamp in for repair on August 8th.  The base was very loose and off center.  They repaired the lamp in less than 10 minutes.  We discussed the repair of the existing shades for both lamps and it was determined that this would be very expensive.  We looked at some similar oval shades in the shop, but only could find one that looked good on the one lamp that I had brought in.  The shop told me it would take 4-6 weeks to order and receive the two shades.  I decided to place the order and put down 50%.  Before I left the shop he gave me two harps to accommodate the new shades when they arrived.  On September 23rd I got a call that the shades were ready and picked them up. 

They were very accommodating and friendly.  I would use them again and recommend them to anyone who has a broken lamp.  They also have a large array of antique and collectible lamps and chandeliers as well as shades.  It was worth driving from Mundelein  to Chicago to have this work done, but hated paying that miserable Cook County 10% sales tax.

While concrete walls do not need to "breathe" in the traditional sense of the word, they do require waterproofing and dehumidifying methods, particularly in basements below the water table. Concrete both contains moisture from its initial installation and can absorb water when exposed. Ensuring proper basement ventilation , installing a vapor barrier, and controlling water exposure are all important tasks.
