"Immediately after contacting Angiâ s list, I received a call the same day and was able to set up a time and day for the estimate. Aaron was great and kept me in constant contact. Victor came the next day for an estimate, and as extremely professional and honest, I got a great vibe and sense from him and we scheduled a replacement for the pool liner. They were able to come 2 days later and they had the knee installed within 2 hours, start to finish. Throughout the entire process, they were a pleasure to work with and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for any pool needs. Victor has over 23 years experience, and his craftsmanship and professionalism definitely showed and we are very grateful and satisfied for the work that they did!"

"I don't understand the old negative reviews. We had our above ground pool installed by TFI and just had them close it. From the first call to today they have been excellent. I normally open and close the pool myself. Why, when TFI will do it? Alicia is superb on scheduling, pricing and service. The field guys are great. Good job Raul! Ps I don't normally give excellent ratings."

"John was very professional.  He was very good at listening to what  I wanted and discuss various options.  I called him on Monday evening and he had everything ready to install on Friday morning.  He also noticed that wires that connect to the circuit breakers were lose.  So he could have just secured those wires but did the extra work to check all the wires, and made the discovery that many of the wires were very lose.  Some just pulled right out.  Very concerning to say the least.  Good catch John!  I had this issue before and there was arcing and almost had a fire in the panel.  his price was reasonable.  The parts alone are about $600 and he was here for about 4 hours.  I plan on having more work done and installing whole house surge protector.

"The quality of the work was pretty good, but the price was a bit steep.  These guys are salesmen.  They will convince you to buy things you don't really need (we got talked into a whole home surge protector) at prices that are a bit higher than you could probably get elsewhere.  But I'd trust them to do a good job and they're easy.  They come when they say and I was happy with their work.  If you need an electrical job and don't mind paying a bit more to make things easy on yourself they're probably a good way to go.  But carefully consider any "extras" they suggest including as you may not need them...

"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!"

"I couldn’t be happier with the service from Aquatic Labs! Their team is professional, reliable, and incredibly knowledgeable. They always show up on time, communicate clearly, and keep my pool looking spotless. Every visit gives me peace of mind knowing everything is being maintained the right way. A special thank you to Monir, who is truly one of the best pool service professionals I’ve worked with. He is thorough, detail-oriented, and always takes the time to make sure everything is perfect. His expertise, honesty, and dedication to customer satisfaction really set him apart. If you’re looking for a pool service company that genuinely cares about quality and their customers, I highly recommend Aquatic Labs. They consistently go above and beyond!"

Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

It’s okay to leave a pool pump on 24-7. In fact, running it continuously has big upsides, including consistently distributing chemicals, keeping a steady pool temperature, preventing algae growth, and keeping pool water clean. However, there is a tradeoff—operating a pool pump around the clock increases energy costs and can take a toll on the pump’s longevity. If you want to run your pool pump all the time, invest in energy-saving equipment like a variable-speed pump.

No, stock tank pools do not get too hot, even when they are set up in a sunny location. Many stock pools are made with galvanized steel and are designed not to get too hot to touch. When your pool is full of water, it is less likely to get hot. The water might be warmer than it would be in an above-ground pool, but it will not be uncomfortable.

If you have kids and want to be extra cautious about the temperature of the stock tank, you may want to set up an umbrella for shade over the pool area.

Small backyards are not a reason to write off fun upgrades like an above ground pool. You can find both soft and hard-sided above ground pools as small as 8 feet in diameter as well as 9-by-18-feet rectangles or 10-by-16-feet ovals. You will need at least 2 to 3 feet around the outside of your pool for additional support and for placing pool equipment, but a professional pool installer can help you find a model that's right for your tiny outdoor space.

Yes, swimming in a pool with high calcium hardness is considered safe as long as you have sufficient chlorine and pH levels to keep bacteria growth under control. The main issue with high calcium hardness is that it damages your pool through rust and corrosion. However, if your water is hard enough to corrode your pool, you might want to consider finding methods to make it safe for drinking at home.

Remodel costs vary, often 50-70% of new construction costs, depending on remodeling depth and choices for feature additions or modifications.
