"Nick called right away and was very professional. He went above and beyond my expectations. My pool was green and full of algae. He turned it around in a few days and was finished in time for my son's graduation party. He was very responsive and I would recommend him to anyone."

"Despite the fact that it was cold and raining, Colleen and Abby spent over 2 hours opening my pool and did a fantastic job. This is the 4th season opening our pool and the previous company was in and out whereas Colleen and Abby took the time to make sure everything was done properly and in my opinion they went above and beyond what I expected to be done. They were on time and professional and I will continue to use Triple A for all future openings and closings. I would highly recommend this company."

"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."

"Everything with Extreme Concrete went extremely well. Mr. Mills and his team did a very high quality job and for a good price. It was not only functional, but it was pleasing to the eye. If there was anything to complain about with the service, it was that the company did not make payment available by credit card. It was cash or bank check only. Somewhat of an inconvenience, but for the quality job that was delivered, it was a small inconvenience for the service."

Install Above Ground Pools FAQs, answered by experts

While you can install an above ground pool on most level surfaces, you’ll need sand to protect your liner from tearing. For example, rocks, plants, and twigs can take a toll on your liner. Adding sand will help level the pool even more. For additional support, you can also use angled foam or a foam pool cove.

Round and freeform pools are popular choices for a small backyard, although a small yard may be able to accommodate a variety of shapes. When planning a pool for your small yard, remember to take into account pool deck space, fencing requirements, and other pool-related factors that may limit your choices.

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.

Yes, you should keep your pool pump running when adding salt, and leave it running for 24 to 48 hours. This will help circulate the salt to ensure even distribution. You will want to turn off your pool’s salt chlorine generator before adding salt and leave it off until it fully dissolves. Check your manufacturer’s instructions for steps specific to your saltwater pool maintenance.

While some water loss from splashing and evaporation is normal, a rapid or excessive drop in the water level may indicate a leak. Other signs of a pool leak include unexplained soft or wet spots in the yard, cracks in the pool structure or falling tiles, higher-than-normal water bills, persistent algae growth or water discoloration, and standing water around the pump, pipes, or other pool equipment.
