"We had an outstanding experience with Chris and his team. They removed an old waterfall feature from our fiberglass pool that was constructed around 20 years ago. They removed existing brick coping and ceramic tile, and we replaced the coping with concrete coping, and added new glass tile. They also installed a new light (old one never worked for us) and a salt system. Chris listened carefully to our needs and delivered exactly what we were hoping for!! It looks new and we can’t wait for the warm weather to return!"

"Overall very pleased. Roger was the first to respond to my request for service. He was also quickly able to schedule time to asses my hot tub repair. He was generous in sharing his knowledge and recommending actions and equipment for good maintenance. He sent another person, Preston to install the new part. Preston also went out of his way and repaired the door to the cabinet of the hot tub."

"My electrician was TJ and he did an amazing job. First up was installing a new heavy chandelier in the dining room. He determined the junction box wouldn't hold the weight of the new chandelier and installed one that would. Chandelier install went great. He moved forward to installing electrical two wall sconces in the dining room. Going into this project I was fulling expecting the whole wall to require drywall repair. In the end, I have one small, very neat, hole in the kitchen that will need repair. The chandelier had two single wall switches in the dining room. He placed a dimmer on one switch and on the second he changed it out to two switches. One for the chandelier and one for the two wall sconces. This exceeded my expectations for the room. He wrapped up the day by installing a new bar light fixture of the vanity. TJ is a thoughtful and talented electrician. I'm more than pleased with the work performed and would recommend Fairway Electric."

"Scheduling was a breeze-I called about two weeks ahead, but it appears they could have helped me sooner(if only my schedule would have allowed). Scott called the morning of the appointment to confirm and give me his ETA(he was traveling from SC to Charlotte). Scott was very friendly and professional. His work was excellent and I feel much safer with the new smoke detectors in my home. He answered a number of questions I had about the installation process for the chandelier and the smoke detectors. He didn't charge me for installing the new doorbell button/cover and gave me a discount for buying and installing four smoke detectors. Tri City guarantees all their work for one year. Overall, I was very pleased with the entire experience."

Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you should keep your pool pump running when adding salt, and leave it running for 24 to 48 hours. This will help circulate the salt to ensure even distribution. You will want to turn off your pool’s salt chlorine generator before adding salt and leave it off until it fully dissolves. Check your manufacturer’s instructions for steps specific to your saltwater pool maintenance.

You cannot DIY a gunite pool—unless, of course, you’re a homeowner who happens to also be a professional pool installer. And even pros need to have experience with gunite pools, in particular, before installing one. Only a skilled gunite pool technician can install this type of pool—it’s not a project you can do yourself.

It is possible to restore a filled-in pool. If you want to dig up and repair a filled-in pool in your backyard, the process will cost about the same as the cost of installing a new in-ground pool. You might do this if the filled-in pool is causing sinking, swelling, or drainage issues in your yard. A new pool may resolve these problems and increase your property value.

No, you shouldn’t be able to taste the salt at all since saltwater pools only contain about 10% of the salt you’d find in ocean water. Saltwater pools do create some chlorine, though, so you should still try not to drink the water.

Once you use a pH decreaser, you can expect the pH to adjust in two to four hours. If you use a strong chemical like muriatic acid, it could take as little as an hour. Either way, it’s best to wait for a full turnover cycle before retesting. You want to make sure the chemical is completely dissolved and evenly distributed or you won’t have a stable pH level.
