"I put a request into Angie's List at 7:30am. Travis called me within 30 minutes. Even though he was working a job several hours away, he said he could stop by that evening. He called me when he was on his way and he arrived when he said he would. He looked at the issues and said he would give me a quote by the next day. I received the quote the next morning. I was happy with the numbers and asked when it could be done, he said he would need to go to Houston to get the parts, he said he could have it completed within the next day and a half. Travis was dead on. I really appreciate him driving all the way to Houston to get the parts, I feel he went out of his way to take care of my issues. I had contacted 3-4 other companies even my pool builder and they told me they would get back to me, I still have not heard from them. Blue Bayou Pools (Travis) had my pool up in running within the week, even with the shortage of parts. I will be using Blue Bayou Pools from now on."

"I recently had the pleasure of hiring a upcoming new home repair business for repairs around my house, and I couldn't be happier with the service I received. From start to finish, they were professional, reliable, and went above and beyond to ensure that everything was done to my satisfaction. The team at this business is truly dedicated to their craft and it shows in the quality of their work. They were punctual, respectful of my property, and cleaned up after themselves. I will definitely be calling them again for any future repair needs. Thank you for your excellent work!"

Install Above Ground Pools questions, answered by experts

There are three types of pool filters—cartridge, sand, and D.E. (diatomaceous earth). Cartridge and sand filters are the most popular types and are affordable and easy to maintain. D.E. filters are more expensive and require more maintenance, but they are also very good at filtering out small particles.

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.

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.

It takes more electricity to run one, so it’s not necessarily cheaper to run a salt water pool. However, the cost difference is relatively minor; it may cost an extra $50 over the course of a year. However, salt costs a lot less than chlorine sanitizers. This lowers the overall maintenance costs for a salt water pool compared to chlorine pools.

There are a few differences when it comes to winterizing above- vs. inground pools. Above ground pool winterization usually involves less hassle, time, and expense than the process for winterizing an inground pool. All the lines on an above ground pool are easy to access, making draining easier. Plus, above ground pools are typically smaller, meaning cleaning is quicker, and chemicals cost less.
