"We had water damage in a room when we were out of town. I hired Joseph and Sons to do the repairs because the pricing was fair. He showed up on time, communicated well and was easy to work with. Angelo worked with me on getting information to my insurance company and found solutions to some ongoing issues we found as the demo started. He also did exterior waterproofing repairs to ensure future water issues would not happen. I had a few extra small requests and he did not nickel and dime us. His workers were very professional and cleaned up at the end of each day. We are very happy with the work and will use on future project."
"I hired Cesar and his crew to gut and renovate multiple bedrooms a kitchen and 2 bathrooms. Cesar, Armondo and Benjamin were an absolute pleasure to work with. Their knowledge, expertise and craftmanship are top notch. Cesar is easy to work with and truly cares about making sure his customers are happy. Cesar has an uncanny knack for finding a solution to any problem he encounters. I found his pricing to be very fair and reasonable and I quickly learned I could trust Cesar. If you are looking to remodel, finish off a room or repair any part of your interior, Cesar and his team should be your first call."
"James and his team did a good job on renovating our whole house. Before choosing James, we compared a few companies. We made our mind to use his team because he made us feel comfortable to work with. We are 1st time home-owner so finding a contractor who has the patience for us and the knowledge to walk us through decisions when buying materials are very important. James is the one met our requirement. We have 5 bedrooms 2 baths. It took about two months and half to finish because certain materials we ordered did not arrive on time. During the renovation, there were unexpected issues that James discovered, but he was always able to figure out a solution that falls into our budget. I would recommend them to my friends who are in need of a contractor. Oh, BTW, I like the music turned on when they were doing the work. A few cool guys to work with, and they made the stressful renovation project a little more enjoyable."
"(Note: this website doesn't have 'Ramp' as a drop-down option so I picked 'Wood Stairs & Railing Install' instead) I needed a ramp built for the back steps in a VERY short amount of time and Paul was able to get it all done even faster than I had any right to hope for. Given the time constraint and the rush I was putting on it I would have accepted just a basic something to fill the need but Paul's work is so solid and beyond what I was hoping for. As friendly as he is skilled, Paul gets my highest recommendation!"
"We were VERY happy with Don's performance and plan to hire him again for work in one of our bathrooms. He was on time, professional, and very knowledgeable about many areas of home remodeling and repairs. In addition to his friendly demeanor, he also gave us some great suggestions to save us some money. He worked non-stop for the time that was agreed to via the Angie's List Coupon. Across the board, a GREAT experience!"

Pool Table Assembly questions, answered by experts
When you’re winterizing your pool, you need to drain some of the water to prevent cracking and warping from ice. Nonetheless, you should never drain all of the water. Ideally, you’ll lower the water level to anywhere from four to six inches below the skimmer. This will protect the structural integrity of the walls, help prevent your pool liner from warping, and reduce damage from debris.
Chlorine performs several functions, depending on where and how you use it. In drinking water, chlorine in small amounts kills potentially harmful bacteria. It's also a common ingredient in detergents for its whitening properties. Most people associate the chemical with pool use, where it works to kill and control bacteria, germs, and viruses in the water.
It can take anywhere from 12 to 24 hours to fill the average pool with water—and that’s if you use a couple of garden hoses. A water delivery service can fill your pool in one to three hours. Some services even pre-treat the water so it’s swim-ready as soon as it’s filled.
It is generally not recommended to place a pool directly on grass. Doing so will kill the grass underneath, and the surrounding lawn may also be damaged by heavy foot traffic and splashes of chemically-treated water. For best results, create a clean, level surface by removing the grass and debris. You can then install a sturdier base using materials like sand, a concrete pad, or solid foam.
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.
