"Once again, Ranieri Construction has gone above and beyond our expectations! We needed to have our inground pool patched and painted, and may I say Andrew (and Lou) did an outstanding job. My husband usually spends time (and $) at the beginning of the season making sure the water stays clean and clear. But patching up all the spots, and then painting the entire pool ensured the pool was so much easier to clean and keep clear on day 1. The improvements also made it easier to maintain the water balance and keep clean. Please consider these folks- they are prompt, detail oriented and very efficient. Feel free to get in touch with us if you want to hear more"

"We are very pleased with our new tile flooring, Wellington was responsive and very nice to work with, he showed up when promised and finished the job in a timely manner. He even went above and beyond and helped out with some basement remodeling/carpentry. We would hire him and his team again!"

"From the initial contact for a quote to the installation there was nothing but fantastic customer service. Install was completed on the date stated in the contract. Everyone working for this company was very respectful of my property. All trash was removed and fence was replaced as it was before they arrived. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a pool."

"Joe was fantastic. We bought a new lantern+post for front yard but installing it wasn't cut and dried because the old lamp post was shorter so the wiring had to be extended, and the previous post was only in the ground 1 foot deep while the new one, since taller/larger, needed to be 3 feet down. We also wanted a junction box/outlet mounted on the base of the post for holiday lights. We were in a hurry because of company coming...and were about to be out of town for a week making our window even smaller. Joe called me back the day I called him. Over the phone I explained what we needed, sent him pix from my phone of the lantern, post, install kit, etc. He told me about how much it would be. Told me to go on vacation, leave the post etc on our back stoop, the inside switch to that circuit off, and when we arrived home, it would be up and running. And it was! Straight and sturdy and he even painted it to match the trim on our house w/o me asking for that! The day after we got home we realized we wanted the old broken timer to work and a different switch inside so I called. He and his co-worker were here that day and the work was done by 3 PM. That also wasn't simple because the circuit it was on had not been done properly in a previous DIY project so that was re-wired. His willingness to fit us in between bigger jobs was super helpful. The work was done well and for a very reasonable price based on other work we've had done. He's our guy now! Thanks, Joe and Mike."

Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

Before deciding to install a swimming pool in your yard, there are many factors to consider. Even if you still need to figure out the specifics with your pool installer, having an idea of what you'd like will help the initial consultation. Some topics to consider include:

  • Will you use salt water for your pool or traditional hose water?

  • How big of a pool do you want to install? How deep?

  • What special zoning laws do you need to follow for your area?

  • Do you want to keep it simple or add special features like underwater lighting and waterfalls?

Generally, you should run your pool pump for eight to 12 hours a day to keep your water clean and chemical levels balanced. The ideal runtime can vary depending on your specific pump type. While running the pump as much as possible is ideal for cleanliness, it can increase electricity costs. To save money, you can run the pump strategically during non-peak hours when electricity is cheaper, which is often in the evenings or at night. The hours do not need to be consecutive.

Liquid chlorine is better for shock treatments or instances where you need to raise your chlorine levels quickly. Tablets are better for regular maintenance. Tablets take more time to dissolve but require less effort. You don’t need to measure out volume, and you can set them in a floater and let that do the work.

Pool chemical levels should include a pH between 7.4 and 7.6, alkalinity between 80 to 120 ppm, and chlorine from 1 to 3 ppm. The size and type of your pool determine additional chemical levels, such as stabilizers and pool shock, but you can get to know these numbers using our pool maintenance 101 guide.

Generally, you do not need to drain your pool to convert it to a saltwater system. The main exception is if you have used an antibacterial agent containing polyhexamethylene biguanide to sanitize your pool, as these sanitation products do not mix well with saltwater systems. If this is the case, you will need to start fresh. You can either drain the pool or treat the existing water with a high dose of chlorine to remove the antibacterial agent. If you choose the chlorine treatment, wait several days to allow the chlorine to work before proceeding with the conversion. If you are unsure whether this applies to your pool, consult a pool technician.
