"The guys that came were very good, they had their routine in motion and had our old liner out and everything laid and the new liner installed in a couple hours. They did a great job."

"This is the second time that Dig M Pools did and installation for us. Again we were very happy with the job they did. We purchased our pool from them and it is a well made product. The owners wife was very helpful when we were deciding what pool to purchase. I would recommend Dig M Pools as first choice. Excellent job. Thanks Dig M."

"First, the positives: - Great value for the service provide (especially with the Angie's List coupon) - Friendly and efficient crew - Team is equipped with necessary tools - Debris hauling is included Now, the negatives: - Difficult to contact and schedule appointment (phone goes straight to voicemail; no reply to e-mail) - Crew arrived 1.5 hours after scheduled time - The team is a bit rough - they broke five solar lights (suggestion - remove anything fragile from your garden before they get started) I would use Budget Landscape again, mitigating the negatives listed above."

"Val was prompt and came to my house to provide an estimate. He came again to review the site of the work prior to it being done and he was quite polite. The original cost estimate was $3450.00 and when I asked about discounts for Angie's customers, he indicated that he was giving me the best price. I had gotten estimates with other contractors and his was the most expensive. The others were not that much cheaper, but, because he was prompt, professional, responsive, and the reviews were good, I went with him. Unfortunately, the quality of the work was sloppy at best. He said it would take them 2 days to finish the job and it did. I was out of town while they were working and when I returned, my yard was a mess. I was told that the concrete truck would come up the driveway, but whatever equipment was used, was also driven through my front yard. I had asked Val what I needed to do to help prepare for the work, and other than moving the outdoor lights, he said nothing. To my dismay, my azaleas, my hostas, and my herb garden were damaged during the process. If I had known that these plants would have been a problem, I would have removed them myself and covered my herb garden. The workers did re-seed the yard and put hay over the damaged areas, but they did not fill in the dirt where the vehicle was driven across my yard and they put the seeds on top of the soil where the concrete dust was. Of course, concrete damages the soil and there is no way that the grass was going to grow well in the damaged areas. When I complained to Val about this, he did send the workers back out to redo the front yard. They came back within 2 days. So, I did appreciate his responsiveness. But the bigger problem is that my stairs are not even. The base and stairs are slanted to the right, the stairs are not evenly spaced, and the craftsmanship is very poor. None of the edges or corners are straight. Its just sloppy. I just don't understand. When I brought this to Val's attention he indicated that the concrete was drying fast and that they did the best that they could. Well, anyone who is a professional at mixing and pouring concrete should know how to do this and make sure that the stairs are even. You should also know which type of concrete to use for the job and that concrete that dries too fast for such a large pour is probably not the best option. Either way, they are the experts and should know. I asked that he take some money off, so we agreed that the price should be reduced by $500.00. I could have asked that they start over, but I dont have the confidence that they would do it right the second time. I am going to have to get someone to come lay flagstone or some other stone to even out the stairs and level them. Even from the street, you can see how uneven everything is. I am quite disappointed and will never work with this contractor again. Perhaps they are good at patios, but they are not good at pouring concrete."

"They responded quickly and fixed the pipe. The work was fine but a little expensive. My only reservation was price, but it has been a while, so I don't feel I can answer other questions about the company with a lot of confidence."

"Hector and his crew did an excellent job of leveling the ground, preparating the area with filler and rebar, and poured the concrete.  The patio came out perfect.  His crew arrived on time, finished the job as scheduled, and cleaned up the area.
I would definitely hire Hector and company again.

Install Above Ground Pools questions, answered by experts

The lifespan of a semi-aboveground pool depends on the lining, but they last between seven and 15 years on average. This is right in line with what you can expect from a standard aboveground pool. In comparison, an in-ground pool can last up to 75 years with a well-maintained concrete liner.

The total time to install an inground pool typically ranges from 8 weeks to 4 months. This timeline can be influenced by several factors, including permitting, site preparation, and the construction process itself.

Key phases and their typical durations include:

  • Permits: Obtaining necessary permits can take anywhere from two to six weeks.

  • Excavation and Site Preparation: This phase takes about a week but can be extended by problematic soil, unexpected ground conditions, or the need to move underground utility lines.

  • Construction: The actual build, including plumbing and electrical work, often takes one to two months. The pool material is a major factor here; a concrete pool needs about 30 days to cure, while installing a fiberglass or vinyl liner is much faster.

External factors can also cause significant delays:

  • Contractor Availability: Spring and summer are busy seasons, and high demand can lead to long waitlists, potentially adding months to your start date. It is often recommended to start planning and getting estimates up to a year in advance.

  • Other Delays: Weather, material shortages, complex designs, and other unforeseen challenges can extend the project timeline.

The regulations for pool fence heights vary by state, so be sure to research what the legal, minimum height is in your area before purchasing or installing a fence. Though every region is different, generally a pool fence must be at least 4 and ½ feet high. If you’re unsure whether you need a fence around your pool, and how high that fence should be, contact a local pool enclosure expert to help you successfully, and safely, move forward.

No, pool jets should not have air coming out. While it’s a common problem, making it seem like air coming out is the norm, bubbling pool jets are a sign of loose bearings or fittings, or low water levels. You should get to the bottom of your jets releasing air bubbles because it could be a sign that there’s air entering the pump, which can shorten the lifespan of your pump or lead to costly repairs.

Yes, you can use chlorine tablets in a salt water pool. It is not the standard recommended practice, but if your pool needs more chlorine, adding tablets can help temporarily fix the problem. Only add as many tablets as needed to keep your chlorine level around three parts per million. After adding the tablets, test your water to determine the chlorine content.
