"Gary did an excellent job leveling out humps in my hard and filling in holes that were created from rotted stumps. He is very knowledgeable in what was needed to get the results I was looking for. When he was through with my yard I was the happiest person ever. My yard looked better than I imagined. Gary went above & beyond my expectations. I was very appreciative! I would highly recommend his services."

"We scheduled Fairway Electric to come out and install 6 ceiling fans and an electrical outlet. Brian did an amazing job and even helped us get through some things the builder forgot with certain brackets in our ceiling. Brian also installed a new outlet for a wine fridge the builder forgot too. One other thing I am very grateful is that I had Brian look at our septic tank (this is a new construction house) and the electricians before wired the thing incorrectly and was filling up and we didn't even know it. Given the reputation of our custom home builder I had him take a look and he fixed the wiring which fixed our pump...THANK GOD! The only thing left to fix is an alarm float which the septic people are coming out to replace. Thank you so much for your help Brian..."

"We hired Austin Landscaping for a complete backyard overhaul after our pool installation. Daryl was great to work with and always came through no matter what challenges came up. They installed a full irrigation system, grading, topsoil, sod, drainage, new beds, mulch, stones, walkways, and bushes. We will be using them again in the future for additional service. It is refreshing to find a company with great ethics. They were always on time and came back to finish when things took a little longer than they thought."

"The purchase process took several months as I took the opportunity to educate myself about the current technologies. Tri-City, via Synergy in Ballantyne, was extremely helpful and provided a no-pressure experience. I spoke to several vendors and received quotes from five. All of the quotes were higher than my final cost. The installation process was not painless as there were some issues with equipment failure. However, the vendor did their level best to minimize the impact upon me and made everything right without complaint."

Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

Above-ground pools offer affordability, easier installation, portability, and flexibility in placement compared to permanent in-ground pools.

Certain pools serve as a middle ground between traditional swimming pools and hot tubs. The two main options are plunge pools and swim spas. A plunge pool (or cocktail pool) is smaller, but you can add spa-like elements such as heating and jets. A swim spa is more similar to a hot tub, but it produces a current that allows you to swim in place (similar to how a treadmill lets you run in place). 

It's not a good idea to drain an aboveground pool into your yard since the pool water's chemicals can harm your plants and the surrounding ecosystem. Instead, it's best to drain the pool into an appropriate sewer so it can be processed at a water treatment plant. You might also be able to drain it into your storm drain, depending on your region. Check with your city to learn about any relevant regulations.

Yes, salt water pools are more expensive than chlorine-based pools because they require a more complex system than traditional, chlorinated pools. This added complexity means more skilled labor and a higher investment upfront. Also, if you need to repair a salt water pool, finding a contractor with the needed experience is generally more time-consuming.

The generator in your saltwater pool conversion kit transforms sodium chloride—the same salt as table salt—into chlorine. A process called electrolysis sends electricity through the water to interact with the chlorine ion. This ultimately creates the chlorine that keeps your pool safe and clean. The cell in your saltwater chlorine generator is the part that converts the salt into chlorine.
