"Dave arrived at the property on time and from the start I appreciated his professionalism.  He was very knowledgeable about the home's construction and immediately noticed safety hazards that I had overlooked upon my own, limited, cursory inspection.  None of the items he pointed out were deal-breakers, but before we went into final contract I was able to get the Sellers to repair these deficiencies (loose front pavers and handrails, leaking basement sink, uneven pavers around the pool, etc.).  He indicated which parts of the outdoor backyard wooden deck were subject to wood-rot and he also pointed out parts of the roof that might need a professional roofer to later address.  He pointed out that the water heater was ending it's useful life (over ten years old) and his concerns about the electric panel box (wattage input and wiring) were later addressed by the Seller to my satisfaction.  The professionals he brought in for the septic tank inspection utilized fiber optics, permitting a full examination of the septic tank, verifying that a new septic system had indeed been installed, correctly, as the Seller had asserted.  From the darkest corner of the basement to the dimly lighted attic, Dave gave valuable insights as to the construction-quality of the house.  I was very satisfied with his thorough report and the reports of the other inspectors.  Without reservation, I recommend Dave Polo & Associates very much!"

"Gregory and his staff did an excellent job! They collected and bagged leaves and cut grass in a very timely manner. They also neatly stacked up the bags of leaves on the curb and cleaned our gutters. We will definitely hire again!"

"From our first meeting with Mike we were sold on Custom Pool Pros and Paver Pros. We met with may other "custom" gunite pool installers who gave us the book to pick a shape from, not really custom when you pick a shape. Mike designed a pool to fit our yard and budget and provided us with a drawing of how it will look when its done.



Custom Pool Pros handled all the paperwork for permits and once approved the work started. Despite some rain delays the whole project, which has now grown from the original idea, is finished. Every time i had a change or question Tom was there to answer the question and provide his input when needed. Overall the experience has been great and I would recommend them to anyone looking for a superior quality "custom" pool.


Just to touch on details, Tom's guys are professionals, they take great pride in their work and it shows in every detail. They are very particular in everything they do down to the placement of each boulder or paver they place. We can't wait to enjoy our new pool and patio for years to come.



Custom Pool Pros handled our whole job from digging the hole, forming the pool, setting the slide, placing the boulders around the slide, installing the perimeter fencing and all 3200 sqft (give or take a few feet) of paver patio surrounding our pool.


This is a large expenditure and I don't regret one penny of the incredible backyard dream that Custom Pool Pros delivered."

"One oven doesn't work at all ( my choice, see above), the "working" oven was never calibrated properly so using it is hit or miss. It's time to call American Home Shield to see about replacing the entire unit. I'm waiting to finish other home projects before calling them. I don't know if I'll request Greenway again."

Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

Avoid the dreaded pool pop by only draining your pool during dry, temperate times of the year. If there is too much moisture or the threat of ice in the ground surrounding your pool, the pressure could disrupt the stability of your pool's floors and walls. Additionally, always open the hydrostatic drains in an inground pool toward the end of the design process.

Most of the time, though there may be some code variations on the local level, a water source like a pool requires a GFCI breaker. These breakers detect electrical leaks of 5 mA or more and trip the breaker. However, the size of the pool and motor type determine the exact GFCI needs. A GFCI outlet with a reset button may be enough for an aboveground pool with a small motor or pump. Consult a pool electrician to determine the appropriate installation and protection measures needed for your pool.

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). 

Both above ground and inground pools can have pool liners. Inground pools made of gunite don’t need pool liners, and you’ve probably walked along an unlined pool and felt the ripples and ridges on the floors and walls. But adding a liner over gunite or other pool types helps protect the wall panels from algae growth.

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.
