Who should you hire to design a pool?

Can you fix a pool leak without draining it?

Q: What is the life expectancy of a stock tank pool?

• <div><p>The life expectancy of a stock tank pool depends on the level of maintenance that you put into it, but it typically lasts for <b>10 years or more</b> with regular maintenance and repairs. Regularly testing the water and adjusting the chemical levels, using a chlorine float instead of tablets that can end up on the floor of the pool, lining the pool, cleaning the stock tank, and managing any rust immediately will help extend the life of the pool.</p></div>

Q: What is the difference between an infinity pool and a regular pool?

• <div><p>With a regular pool, the water is contained by visible walls that are higher than the water level. An infinity pool has one or more walls that are right at the waterline so they're not truly visible. For an invisible look, the lower wall is often made of glass or clear acrylic. The water laps over the lower edge and into a catch basin below where it gets pumped back into the pool.</p></div>

Q: How often do I need a pool inspection?

• <div><p>If you frequently use your swimming pool, an annual inspection is ideal. For pools over 20 years old, get an inspection twice a year. If you have a new pool, are selling your house, or your property went through a severe weather event, schedule a pool inspection as soon as possible.</p></div>

"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."
