"I have been using Big Blue Pool for over nine years now. Let me start off by saying Emma is one of the Frontline workers for Big Blue Pool, She is professional she is cheerful and a pleasure to talk to , She is so full of energy I just love to talk to her each year. Mike the owner of Big Blue is great he’s professional he is a great person to deal with very fair and stands behind everything Big Blue does, they always seem to amaze me by what they’ll do for their customers. They open and close my pool every year, come immediately whenever I need a service call. They have done many service calls on my pool, and have given me advice on how to do a lot of things myself which isn’t common for a business when you think about it. There workers have always done a good job and were always very pleasant and willing to answer questions.. It also seems that everyone they recommend for certain things they don’t do , (for example Bob the diver fixes leaks for them) Has the same Work ethics they do. If you need a pool company for anything this is the company that you want to use. If I could I would’ve given them 10 stars."

"Nick was very understanding and knowledgeable of our problem and was able to trace the issue to a loose wire in the breaker box. Nick was very thorough in the work done to resolve the issue which included checking the electric meter outside the house. Nick also offered advice regarding our current window Air Conditioner installation. Very pleased with the outcome."

"It went beautifully! Steve gave us suggestions that ultimately allowed us to save money and looked great! It was logistically difficult for us to be there but he kept us updated as he went along and sent pictures of the progress. And because we couldn't be there many things such as taking down pictures, moving knick-knacks as well as clothes and furniture were done by him and his crew without a problem. We added a few additional things to be done and the prices were very reasonable in my opinion. Mom is going to be so thrilled!"

Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

The cost to maintain a pool depends on its size and condition. A one-time pool cleaning session costs around $250, and regular weekly maintenance costs $25 to $40 per week. You can get a discount if you buy services in bulk. Regular pool maintenance helps limit the number of repairs and identify signs of trouble.

You’ll need at least 50-by-10 feet for a residential lap pool. Endless pools need as little as 15-by-8 feet. Deciding which type of pool is right for you and your family will depend heavily on the size of your backyard and what can comfortably fit. Don’t forget to leave room for other structures and activities in your yard, such as a swing set, shed, garden, or outdoor grill.

The total time to install an inground pool typically ranges from 8 weeks to 4 months. This timeline can be influenced by several factors, including permitting, site preparation, and the construction process itself.

Key phases and their typical durations include:

  • Permits: Obtaining necessary permits can take anywhere from two to six weeks.

  • Excavation and Site Preparation: This phase takes about a week but can be extended by problematic soil, unexpected ground conditions, or the need to move underground utility lines.

  • Construction: The actual build, including plumbing and electrical work, often takes one to two months. The pool material is a major factor here; a concrete pool needs about 30 days to cure, while installing a fiberglass or vinyl liner is much faster.

External factors can also cause significant delays:

  • Contractor Availability: Spring and summer are busy seasons, and high demand can lead to long waitlists, potentially adding months to your start date. It is often recommended to start planning and getting estimates up to a year in advance.

  • Other Delays: Weather, material shortages, complex designs, and other unforeseen challenges can extend the project timeline.

Building a pool yourself will take at least eight to 12 weeks. After all, this is the building timeline after hiring a pool contractor who knows how to draw up plans, analyze your landscape, and apply for proper permits. If you choose to tackle any part of the process alone, assume building a pool will take two to three months at a minimum.

While some commercial pools are required to run their pump 24 hours a day, homeowners should not. Running a pool pump for 24 hours a day isn’t necessary to clean the pool water—eight hours is enough. Doing so unnecessarily increases your electric bill and puts more wear and tear on the pump and filter, shortening their lifespan.
