"Everything was excellent. The team identified the hole in our pool liner. On the day of replacing the liner, identified a potentially severe issue with the structure of the pool. Provided a recommendation for a replacement pool. Proceeded to remove the old pool and excavate the land in preparation for construction of the new pool. Once the new pool arrived, they constructed the pool and constructed new outline landscaping around the pool. We are now the envy of our neighbors who have all watched and gazed in amazement at our new backyard oasis. For all of your pool needs, this is who you need to contact ASAP."

"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."

"Ricardo was meticulous and very professional. Work done was excellent and they attended to all details. They provided ideas to improve the project and helped me because the conscious. They cleaned up the area very well when they were done. Sod was installed in the areas that were dug up around the project. They gave me an update each day as to what was going to be done that particular day. Would definitely use them again and highly recommend them."

Hristo did everything possible to get the job done. This particular June 2016 was filled with many rain days and made his schedule hectic. He kept me in the loop and was up front and honest about the delay noting vinyl liners must be installed in dry, sunny weather - none of which came for a few weeks.

The job was handled quickly and professionally while his team made several visits to complete the job. During this time we got even more rain but the liner was installed by then and they finished all well within the timeframe.

I write all this because Hristo kept me informed which I appreciated and which has earned him and his team my respect and gratitude.

A job more than well done! Also, within budget :)

"Our original contractor dropped off of the Facebook of the Earth, leaving us with mostly finished renovation and the new deck I started. I found 5thGen on Thumbtack and Christian was the most responsive and knowledgeable of the respondents to my search for fencing contractors. His team built me a gorgeous fenced-in urban oasis and the double lattice was his idea and custome made for our space. I’m attaching photos. He and his team then proceeded to repair our previous contractor’s errors (like installing new kitchen cabinets upside-down... really!) and did amaze my custome drywall work and mounding work. They even moved our challenger and you would never know the base had been relocated looking at the ceiling. Great great job, reliable and responsive on multiple projects for us since. Our relationship with 5thGen started at the end of 2015 and continues to date."

"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."

Install Above Ground Pools questions, answered by experts

The best way to find a reliable pool service company is to look for one that is properly licensed and insured, has positive customer reviews, maintains good ratings with the Better Business Bureau (BBB), and provides pricing that fits into your budget. You can also ask the following questions to see if a pool service company is right for you:

  • Do you provide discounts if I sign up for multiple services or a contract?

  • What services can you provide?

  • How many years of experience do you have?

  • Do you have any customer references I can call?

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?

Customization options may include different pool shapes, sizes, decks, and additional accessories like ladders or pool lights.

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.

You shouldn’t swim in a pool with algae. When there’s algae, there’s also bacteria that’s feeding on the algae. Also, algae-infested pool water is often chemically imbalanced, which means germs like Cryptosporidium, Giardia, and E.coli could be present. These germs can cause a range of illnesses from gastrointestinal issues, to rashes, and respiratory problems.

The best thing to do is to get rid of the algae first, test and balance the water, and then you can enjoy swimming without any worries.
