"I had three bids to replace my plaster and tile on my pool. After talking with the three companies, I was more comfortable going with Ryan and Platypus Pools, as he really knew what he was talking about. His crew came out in a timely fashion, got the job done very quickly and the pool looks great. I loved the attention to detail and Ryan made sure that the job was done perfectly, as he was on site during the renovation. Very happy with the result and will hire them for any pool repairs I need in the future."

"The company has a small parking lot, which made it particularly easy to drop off and pick up the lamps.
I took the lamps in, they gave me a verbal estimate. Once I agreed to the estimate, they gave me a written one and told me I could wait as it wouldn't take long (I had an appointment, so I said I would come back in about 2 hours).
When I arrived to pick up the lamps they were ready to go and at the quoted price."

Pool Construction and Installation FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Costs depend on material quality, labor rates, and additional features like lighting or custom finishes.

A professional land surveyor ensures accurate property boundaries and prevent legal disputes.

A few different types of land surveys can help determine certain features and boundaries of your property. These include:

  • Boundary surveys describe the actual borders of a property. These are generally required when trying to get construction permits issued. 

  • Location surveys provide much of the same information as a boundary survey but also include in-depth information about any improvements made to your property. 

  • Mortgage location surveys are usually required by lenders and title companies before financing or offering an insurance policy. 

  • Site-planning surveys are done before applying for building permits and can be issued before any major home improvements. 

  • Topographic surveys provide a formal map of land elevations. It can also describe the location and size of natural features and any land improvements.

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.
