"Santiago worked on a Sunday to help me install a very heavy fountain. He measured perfectly and also made the fountain level on the patio that had a slight slope. He communicated clearly and was eager to work. I would recommend him as a great handyman and I will definitely hire him again this summer."
"There are a couple of ways to get this faucet that we needed to remove. This man did things right, all five pieces of tile removed stayed intact, he was very astute about getting the old minerals off, was very through with the assembly of the faucet (trying to keep it low) and finally he assembled the rest of it so it could be done all at once. I would highly recommend Steve. He’s a keeper."
"Tyler just charged his low hourly rate to cut down two fruit trees and cleaned up all the debris in less than 2 hours. He even took some other stuff to the dump for me without charging extra. I'm so pleased with his service, and look forward to having someone I trust (Tyler) come and take care of future needs."
"It sounds excellent—genuine, detailed, and enthusiastic. I’d make only a couple of small adjustments for smoother flow: Monty’s Handyman Services did an amazing job transforming my bedroom closet. They removed the old builder-grade wire shelving and replaced it with beautiful built-ins that completely transformed the space. The craftsmanship, attention to detail, and professionalism were outstanding. I honestly could not be happier with the finished product. If you’re looking for high-quality work from someone who truly cares about the end result, I highly recommend Monty’s Handyman Services."
"Scott from SURV of Ogden was professional. He showed up on time and got the job done fast. He did not go over the estimate he gave me and fixed my closet shelving so it won’t fall off the wall again. I will use them again in the future."
Pool Table Assembly questions, answered by experts
You should add one 3-inch chlorine tablet for every 5,000 gallons of water in your pool. If you have a smaller pool, it’s better to use 1-inch chlorine tablets so you don’t accidentally add too much chlorine. Alternatively, you can add two to three ounces of powdered chlorine or half a gallon of liquid chlorine for every 5,000 gallons of water.
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.
There are some disadvantages to a salt water pool. Besides costing slightly more than chlorine pools, salt water pools require a lot of salt. It's also harder to find a professional with salt water pool experience to do minor maintenance and repairs. Salt water can also damage some materials, so you’ll need to use specific heating, fixtures, lighting, liners, and masonry when building a salt water pool.
Yes, you will need building permits for an inground pool, and your pool installation company should pull them for you. The permit filing fee will usually sit between $400 and $1,800, and it should appear on your contract or invoice. You may want to confirm with your contractor that they will pull all necessary permits. You might also need a permit for a new fence, as many municipalities have special fencing requirements for properties with pools. A fence permit costs between $50 and $500. This expense may not be included in your pool installation estimate.
You can check if your pool is bonded by looking for a copper wire that connects to the motor and pumps and then extends into the ground. However, if you’re unfamiliar with electrical wiring, contacting a pool electrician to inspect the motor and pumps is safest. An electrician can check the system and determine if it is up to code and meets all swimming pool bonding requirements.
