"I could not be happier!! Larry was awesome, even though he had been working all day he came to work on my pool. He is the only one who returned my call for help and showed up. I asked him to be my Pool Man and he said yes. He is returning to do some more work on my pool and he is the only person I will have working on my pool. He was kind and explained to me what was wrong with my pool. If you have an above ground pool call Larry he is your pool guy. Really happy I found him. Thank you again Larry."

"The entire process was very professional from start to finish. We explained what we were interested in and Zach Hinkle provided several great ideas and recommendations. He then provided a detailed drawing and itemized costs. We made several changes and each time he was very patient and helpful. The crew was very professional, friendly and neat. The company they used to deliver the brick accidentally damaged a small section of yard and they installed new sod at no charge. I was extremely impressed with the professionalism, dedication to quality and craftsmanship. I would highly recommend them for any hardscape projects."

"I was introduced to Pool Pros through a home inspection process. These guys were super helpful, guiding us novice pool owners. We had them replace the pool cap and install a new pool filter. Both projects were completed timely and the pool cap looks fantastic! Lastly, they offered several tips and suggestions for new pool owners that meant a ton to us to have a great pool season. Huge thank you to these guys!!"

"After looking at the manual for my unit, they called me back 30 minutes later to confirm that my pilot assembly was indeed functioning correctly. I really appreciate the integrity of not coming out and charging me a service fee for something that wasn't even broken. Thanks!"

FAQs for pool construction and installation projects in Holden, MO

Most spool or cocktail pools take four to 12 weeks from breaking ground to the first swim, although timing varies depending on size, type, and site conditions. An above-ground, vinyl-lined model can be installed within three or four days once the kit arrives, whereas an in-ground spool adds excavation, plumbing, and inspection steps that extend the timeline. Because delivery alone can take a few weeks, lining up permits and any necessary digging or grading work during that window helps keep the project moving.

Cocktail pools are not intended for traditional swimming; they are built to deliver a cooling and relaxing experience. They provide an ideal setting for a refreshing dip rather than for exercise or lap swimming. The pool’s limited dimensions restrict vigorous activity and ensure safety, making it a perfect retreat for quick cool-downs and leisurely soaks in a compact, stylish design.

Spool pools have a depth of 38 to 42 inches, which is ideal for sitting, standing, and gentle dipping. This deliberate depth prioritizes safety and an inviting atmosphere while eliminating the possibility of diving or extended swimming. The measured design creates a secure and intimate space for relaxation, adding a refined touch to your outdoor area.

If you're handy and have experience with excavation, plumbing, and electrical work, consider installing your spool pool yourself. However, hiring a professional ensures the job is done safely and correctly. Pros have the expertise to handle all the technical details, giving you peace of mind and helping you avoid costly mistakes.

Maintaining a spool pool demands regular cleaning, precise chemical balancing, and thorough system inspections. Homeowners should allocate time monthly for filter cleaning and water quality checks, in addition to performing seasonal maintenance, to ensure optimal system performance. Ongoing maintenance preserves water clarity and operational efficiency, reduces repair costs, and extends the pool’s lifespan, creating a safe and enjoyable environment.

Popular upgrades include a brick-paver patio for slip-resistant footing, low-voltage lighting for evening swims, and code-compliant fencing to boost safety. Additionally, consider adding landscaping or a fire pit to transform the pool area into a year-round hangout. Each feature raises overall costs, but thoughtful add-ons improve usability, curb appeal, and, in many markets, resale value.
