Thank you for visiting Archadeck of Central Maine, the leading outdoor living space builder in the Bangor, Augusta, and Waterville areas. We're known for creating additions that seamlessly work into the existing design of your property, building new structures that looks as if they were always part of our clients' homes. We're proud to say we don't offer a catalog full of ready-made decks, patios, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, and more, nor do we charge by the square foot. Every design is one-of-a-kind and custom made for our clients.
"I highly recommend Archadeck of Central Maine. The carpenter, Garret, except for a few hours on the first carpentry day and the entire last day, worked on this by himself. He did a phenomenal job! On the last day he was joined by Preston and he did a great job as well. This project had some unique elements. First, was the slope of the ground. Second, was the design. The lower deck was designed to hold a hot tub (not shown here) to be accessed from the upper deck in the area between the two railings. One whole side of the upper deck remained without a railing as I wanted deck access to be at any point along the footpath. It'll be my task to backfill the gap between the deck surface and the footpath. Total number of days worked on this project was six (6). TJ and Jessi are easy to work with and the cost was very reasonable. We are THRILLED with the results!!"

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.
