"Wise Home Direct did a major interior makeover on my house last fall and not only did they do a fantastic job but I really enjoyed working with them and appreciate their professionalism. Today I had an urgent need for some follow-up repair work and I'm completely impressed with their willingness and ability to rally for me late in the day on a Friday afternoon to mobilize and handle my issues same day. It's been about 9 months since they finished their project and I am completely impressed with this kind of after-project support and look forward to the next project I will do with them."

"Superior Pools was my choice for building my dream pool for my family. After extensive research and having 5 pool companies at my home Superior Pools earned the right to build my pool and spa. The quality of the equipment is the heart of the pool. Superior only uses Jandy equipment and puts top of the line filters, pumps, valves and heaters. Add the superior automation of the IAqua link system and no other pool builder comes close. I highly recommend to go to Jandy's website and learn about their products. The workmanship of my equipment pad is a 10. When gathering quotes from other pool companies the mix and match of equipment and quality of the brands was not to par on what Superior had to offer. You combine this with their warranty and the clear winner was Superior. Then the customer service they provide exceeds all expectations. From the owner Peter to the installers that built my dream pool all were listening, educating and caring to my many questions I asked of them. Superior wants to build their customers a top quality pool at a fair price. They want to make sure the customer is happy and build on those relationships. I highly recommend if looking for a pool do your research on the equipment Superior Pools uses. Combine that with the service and experience Superior Pools has to offer and it made my decision very easy. Peter and his team exceeded all my expectations."

"Started off well. Seemed nice and reputable. Then went downhill. I told him exactly where to get trim molding and he refused to check there and wasted hours searching and got frustrated and his attitude reflected his frustration. I made one phone call to place I told him that had molding... Wow, they had it in stock!!! Sheetrock repair was average at best. I had to redo a big portion. I asked for estimates for portions of work and was asked to be patient but when he wanted payment, wasn't patient at all. Would not use him ever again. See attached pics of his finished sheetrock work."

The best above‐ground pool brands are those that exude exceptional quality and reliability. Intex, Doughboy, Kayak Pools, Bestway, Coleman, and Summer Wavesdeliver robust construction, safety, and longevity. Each brand comes with rigorous quality standards, strong warranties, and engineered durability. Evaluating product features and aftersales support ensures you choose the optimum option for your project.
Above‐ground pools built with high‐quality materials like heavy‐gauge aluminum or stainless steel can last between 10 and 20 years with diligent maintenance. In contrast, soft‐sided or inflatable models have a shorter lifespan if the installation and upkeep are not rigorous. Consistent cleaning, proper chemical balancing, and timely repairs extend the pool’s service life significantly.
The cost to hire a moving service to relocate your aboveground pool varies. The size of the pool, its weight, and the distance you’d like to move it all factor into the cost. Be sure to ask your movers ahead of time if they can take on this project, as not all pros offer this service. Professional movers charge $25 to $50 per hour, per mover.
An aboveground pool installation requires between one day and several days, depending on the pool’s dimensions, design, and site conditions. The process begins with thorough site preparation followed by the systematic assembly of pool components. Additional tasks, such as constructing an adjacent pool deck, extend the overall timeline. Efficient planning and execution ensure a secure and properly functioning pool.
An aboveground pool installation requires a consistent, level base for optimal performance. Suitable surfaces include dirt, sand, concrete, and well-maintained grass areas. Avoid rocky or uneven terrain, as it jeopardizes the pool’s stability. Preparing the site with a uniform layer of smooth sand or soil, measuring 3 to 4 inches, secures a stable and long-lasting installation.
Yes, you can convert your aboveground chlorinated pool to a saltwater pool with a dedicated conversion system that costs between $750 and $2,000, depending on pool size. This conversion enhances water quality and reduces maintenance frequency while eliminating the need for constant chlorination. It is a practical upgrade that boosts overall pool efficiency and comfort.
