"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"

"Nesto did a great job installing an above ground pool for me in the Fall of 2015. From excavation to final assembly, all went as planned. I couldn't be happier. Nesto is also a really cool guy, I highly recommend his services!"

"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

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.

A 24-foot diameter pool is the most popular size for a round above ground model, while 15 by 30 feet is a common choice for oval-shaped pools. However, you'll find round sizes everywhere between 8 and 33 feet. Oval pools range up to 21 by 41 feet but can be customized to stretch much longer. Choosing the right size will come down to where you can level your yard and how many swimmers plan to use the pool at a given time.

Shock can clear a cloudy pool if the problem is insufficient free chlorine or an accumulation of chloramines from “spent” chlorine. However, it can make the issue worse if a high level of chlorine or a pH imbalance is the root cause of the problem. Test your pool water before treating the cloudiness to ensure you’re making the right call.

You can check if your pool is bonded by looking for a copper wire that connects to the motor and pumps and then extends into the ground. However, if you’re unfamiliar with electrical wiring, contacting a pool electrician to inspect the motor and pumps is safest. An electrician can check the system and determine if it is up to code and meets all swimming pool bonding requirements.

Yes, adding a pool to your property will almost always increase your homeowners insurance premiums. This is because pools are considered hazardous, which increases your home's liability risk. The replacement cost of the pool itself is also factored into your home's rebuilding cost when determining coverage limits. The amount of the increase can vary from as little as $50 to several hundred dollars more per year, depending on your insurance company, location, current coverage, and installed safety features. It is best to contact your insurance agent before installing a pool to get an estimate, understand their specific guidelines, and factor the ongoing cost into your budget.
