Why is it taking so long to fill my pool?

• <div><p>If your pool takes longer than one or two days to fill, you might be dealing with low water pressure. Using a water pressure gauge on your outdoor tap, you can check your water pressure. A reading of 40 psi or below is considered low. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-find-a-leak-in-a-pool.htm">A leak</a>, a nearby water shutoff, or several other reasons could cause this. </p><p>If the water pressure isn’t a problem, you could have a low flow rate from clogs, corroded pipes, or other plumbing issues.

Q: What causes high pH in a pool?

• <div><p>High alkalinity, which is above seven on the pH scale, is the result of improper chemical levels in the pool. Each chemical you use to keep your pool clean has a different pH, so a ratio that isn't optimized for your pool size may cause the number to go above 7.8, the high end for a good pH range in most swimming pools.</p></div>

Q: What can I put under my pool to level it?

• <div><p>You can place many materials under a pool to level it, including sand, concrete, solid foam, pavers, or finely crushed gravel. You can also use a tamper or roller to level ground without using a shovel to dig. No matter the material, make sure to level the ground with sand first for a smooth, even surface for the pool to sit on.</p></div>

Q: Is it okay to swim in a cloudy pool?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s not ideal to swim in a cloud pool, as it can be a sign of algae, bacteria, or calcium buildup as well as chlorine, pH, or alkalinity imbalances. It is best to avoid cloudy water in pools until you determine the cause of the color change.</p></div>

Q: Can you put an in-ground pool in your basement?

• <div><p>In many homes, an unfinished basement is an ideal place for an in-ground pool. The concrete floors, protection against water damage, and access to the ground below your home make this a large contender. Speak with a <a href="https://www.angi.com/companylist/remodeling-basements.htm">local basement remodeling contractor</a> to ensure your space is right for the large construction. </p></div>

Heater installed by another contractor broke in the winter. Uncle A's came out the next day and got it fixed. Anthony is my new regular HVAC contractor. Shows up when he says he will and keeps at it until the job is done. What more can you ask?

"Jason Miller responded within minutes of my inquiry on HomeAdvisor. We set an appointment for later that evening. He was on tome and looked at the pool and made not an estimate but quoted a firm fair price price. He replaced the liner in our 27' above ground pool 2 days later. Time was critical to us since we had just discovered our old liner was ripped when we started to open the pool the day before. We had a pool party planned for my daughter's High School Graduation the following week. Our regular "go to" pool service provider could not complete the job in time. From now on Jason and his crew will be called for all work needed on our pool from now on. No more shopping around."

Absolute Construction went above and beyond to make sure my job was completed and they hooked me up on the price because they knew I was on a very limited budget. I will be calling them again."
