"Above ground pool was opened.  They took the cover off, folded it up and placed it by my shed, filled the pool with water and treated it with chemicals.  However...they did not fill the pool enough to run the filter, did not put in the stairs or check to see if my heater was in working order as requested over the phone.  I was not notified in any way about the status of my pool heater.  No report or bill of service was given.  They charged the wrong credit card and left their tools on my deck.  Also, not very customer service friendly over the phone.  They seem almost "bothered" when I called to request their service.  Needless to say, I will not be using them again.

"I called several HVAC companies and none were able to respond immediately. Then I spoke to Shawn at Climate Master. He was able to diagnose the problem over the phone . It wasn't something that could be fixed that day. But Shawn stopped in on his way to another call just to verify that he was correct in his assessment. It was so reassuring and he called the office to make sure someone could come the next morning. Chuck came out Monday morning and took care of everything quickly to have our AC up and running. Turns out part of the problem was an improperly set fan speed when the AC was installed. This is a great company, trustworthy and efficient. Thanks so much to Angie's List for helping me find them!!"

"John answered on the first call and came by the same day to see the work and give me a price. 2 days later he had his crew there on time and ready to work. They went above and beyond and made sure to not only remove everything from the home but also haul everything away so I wouldn't be stuck with all the garbage. I would hire them again and will be referring them to people."

"We had let our pool go, lots of leaves and debris in the pool. John was great! Came out the following day, performed all that was asked and then some. Trouble shooted our filter, made recommendations for future maintenance. I would definitely recommend them to perform all your pool service needs. Jason-Mokena"

"Fantastic. Rolando and his team worked very hard in the hottest parts of summer with impecable precision. He is an expert at installing pavers, it’s truly an art he has mastered. The quality of work far exceeded my expectations. The pool installed is great quality- with Rolando continuing communication all the way through pool closing to ensure all my needs were met.

If ANYTHING wasn’t exactly how I wanted it- Masonry Doctors: Rolando and his team ensured it was corrected immediately. He cares a lot about leaving his customers happy. You are in good hands with Masonry Doctors."

Install Above Ground Pools questions, answered by experts

A pool heater is worth the expense, given that it can extend your swimming season by several months, depending on where you live. For many, adding a pool heater allows the pool to remain in service from May through mid-October. Even temperatures in the 40s and 50s are tolerable when the water in the pool is heated.

Sometimes, homeowners choose to install their pool on concrete, foam tiles, or patio pavers. Leveled dirt is also fine, as long as it’s not sod or grass. Regardless, you’ll need to install sand as a buffer to prevent your liner from tearing. Some pool installers also use a protective foam pool pad.

An in-ground concrete pool will carry the highest price tag of all available types of pools, with architectural or freeform concrete pools found at the top end of the price range. Although the upfront costs for a concrete pool are high, these pools tend to be more durable than pools made from other materials and will last the longest. 

Finding a reputable inground pool installation company starts with an online search and assessing a company’s positive and negative reviews. You can also check the Better Business Bureau’s reports for companies you’re considering to see if they have numerous customer complaints for poor service. One of the best things you can do to find a good company is ask for references and then call those past customers to see how they felt during the installation process and how their pool has held up. Finally, you can get estimates from the remaining companies to compare.

Once you use a pH decreaser, you can expect the pH to adjust in two to four hours. If you use a strong chemical like muriatic acid, it could take as little as an hour. Either way, it’s best to wait for a full turnover cycle before retesting. You want to make sure the chemical is completely dissolved and evenly distributed or you won’t have a stable pH level.
