"I went on Angie's List to see which pool service provider had the best ratings.  Though I traditionally have used the same contractor that installed my pool, I decided to go with the provider that had the highest ratings on Angie's List.  Happily, I was very happy with the service provided.  Last fall, Scott the owner sent out some employees to measure the precisely measure the pool.  In the early Spring, AquaHaven (AH) came back to make sure the measurements were correct.  AH sent me information via e-mail as to the different styles and types of liners that they carried.  I scheduled AH to come back in the Spring do install the liner.  AH set up a sump pump the day before installation to drain the pool.  It took approximately 10 hours to drain 18,000 gallons.  The pump was submerged and had a cut off switch so I really did not have to do anything.  Two highly skilled and professional workers showed up promptly at 8:00 a.m. the next day and finished draining the pool.  They then worked quickly to remove the old liner, prepare the metal sides and redo the flooring and walls of the pool.  Some of the pool floor and walls had deteriorated over the past 12 years so the workers quickly redid the entire damaged services leaving the pool floor and walls smooth.  The new vinyl liner was then put in place.  The workers were careful not to damage the pool floor which they had just repaired.  Once the liner was put in place, they put in vacuum blowers to remove any excess air and began filling the pool with water.  They then cleaned up completely hauling away the old liner, debris and any equipment they had brought.  After filling the pool floor with sufficient water to cover the first steps, AH came back the next day to remove the vacuum blowers.  The pool is now completely filled with water and is beautiful.
The pool liner cost approximately $1,500 and the labor, other material and tax ran around $2,700.  This was similar in cost to other contractors.  Scott, the owner, checked with me by phone the next day to see if everything was okay.  
I believe AH provided excellent service and an excellent product.  I would highly recommend them for this type of work in the future.

"I was extremely pleased with the recent work that RB Landscaping performed for us. They provided a creative design for a patio on our sloping yard and closed in an area underneath our porch. The schedule they provided was on time and efficiently done. The work crew was professional, efficient, and cleaned the area each day. I will say that the patio and enclosure exceeded my expectations. I would certainly use them again and would recommend them to friends and family."

"I decided that I wanted a standby electric generator for my house. Not knowing anything about generators, I began looking for advice on exactly what I should purchase. After talking to several electrical contractors, Tri-City was obviously the most knowledgeable on the subject. Chad (of Tri-City) helped me choose the right generator for my situation, with no promise that I would use him to do the installation. He and his brother Jason came by here to look at my situation and didn't try to get me to commit to anything or try the old trick of "We'll knock off the charge for the estimate when we do the installation". After I had chosen a generator and had it delivered, (I got it from electricgeneratorsdirect.com), Chad and Jason came out here and built a wood-framed gravel pad, made sure it was level and attractive, then moved the generator from my garage and placed it on the pad and did all the connections that were possible before the gas company came to perform some necessary modifications. After the gas was hooked up, they returned and completed the installation. Not only did they do an outstanding job, they stayed around for a couple hours testing it to make sure it was working properly. I no longer have to think about who I will call when I need anything electrical done! These guys are head and shoulders above any other electrical contractor I was able to find!"

"I had a fantastic experience with Bluestone Pool Solutions during my recent liner replacement. The team was not only friendly but also extremely knowledgeable about their work. They took the time to explain the process to me and answer all my questions, making me feel confident in their expertise. The quality of their work was exceptional, and I am thrilled with the final result. I highly recommend this company to anyone in need of pool renovations or upgrades. Thank you for the excellent job!"

"I highly recommend Brad We were in the process of selling our home and had to open repair and resurface our gunite pool that was 30 years old. He was able to drain the pool safely from all the debris, and repair any damage concrete, resurface and painted the pool. He also replaced the motor on the filter and re-piped all the pool lines. This was a huge job as the pool had not been opened in 4 years. He worked with our budget and was able to complete the entire job at a very reasonable cost ."

Install Above Ground Pools questions, answered by experts

The best time to schedule an annual pool inspection is early or late spring, before the busy summer season. Your inspector can identify urgent issues so you can address them before using the pool. If your region is warm year-round, schedule an inspection before you start swimming regularly. 

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.

The best temperature to paint a pool deck is between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, because many paints and sealers require temperatures warm enough for the chemical reaction to take place for proper curing. The paint should not be allowed to freeze, and temperatures above 90 degrees can cause the paint to dry too quickly, also preventing the chemical reaction from following through to completion.

Installing an infinity pool takes up to 12 weeks. It can take as long as 20 weeks if you have a complex design, are building a pool in an inaccessible area, or face weather-related construction delays. Either way, this is a big job that requires a lot of time and labor to get it right. Pool construction is not a job that should be rushed, as poor installation can lead to expensive recurring repair costs. 

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.
