"We moved into our new construction home in 2007. On June 30, 2018 there was torrential rain in the Des Moines metro, causing a lot of local flooding and flooded basements. This was the first of 3 occasions that summer when a small amount water worked its way up through a concrete seam in our basement floor. We contacted several local wet basement outfits to see what could be done to correct the problem. The general consensus from the majority of them was that we had more of a landscaping problem than a wet basement problem. One outfit even went as far as to say, "Take care of your landscaping and if that doesn't correct the problem, than call me". After a lot of research into Des Moines area landscapers, we chose Friend Landscaping for this project. They built up the grade around our house, installed underground gutters, built two small retaining walls and installed a French drain across the back of the house; all to force rain water away from the foundation of the house. In addition, they replaced all of the old landscaping with a clean, attractive layout and long-lasting materials. We've had several heavy downpours since the work was done in September 2018 and it is clear that the landscaping is working as designed and the water issue in our basement has not reoccurred. We highly recommend Friend Landscaping for anyone who has drainage issues around their house and would definitely hire him for future jobs. Bill kept us informed of the project time-line; and he and his crew always kept the jobsite clean and safe while the work was in progress."

"Very professional and good communication. In a recent storm one of my downspouts became disconnected from my gutters. Being that I live in a split level and this was in about the most inconvenient spot( an I am getting older and seemingly more clumsy), I decided to have someone do the job. A&B reached out to me very quickly and had an opening to get me in same day. Keep in mind this was the middle of January shortly after a winter storm. They were able to quickly get this job done despite the difficult weather and snow on the ground and for a fair price. Throughout they were very communicative, I knew exactly where they were and when they would be arriving. In fact, when I went to just check in with them, they had already finished and Steve was going the extra mile with tidying up and making sure everything was right for a repair that would last. Would definitely recommend for handyman jobs!"

FAQs for swimming pool in ground build or installation projects in Cumming, IA

Installing a lap pool at home offers you the convenience of exercising whenever you like without needing to travel to a gym. It's a great way to stay fit while saving time and money. Plus, lap pools take up less space than traditional pools, use less water and energy, and typically cost less to install and maintain. It's an excellent investment if you value health and convenience.

To install a lap pool in your backyard, you'll need to consider the type of pool you want. For a traditional 40-by-8-foot lap pool, plan for at least 50-by-10 feet to allow room for decking. If you're considering an endless pool, you'll only need about 15-by-8 feet. Don't forget to account for other outdoor features you might have or want, like a swing set, shed, or garden. Planning your space carefully ensures you get the most enjoyment from your backyard.

A 40-foot lap pool is a great size for most homeowners. It provides enough length for a good workout while fitting comfortably in many backyards. Of course, the ideal size for your lap pool depends on your available space and budget. Consider talking with a professional pool builder to determine the best size and design for your needs.

Lap pools can be a worthwhile investment if you plan to use them regularly for exercise. If you enjoy swimming laps but prefer the convenience of staying at home, a lap pool might be perfect for you.

Keep in mind that lap pools are longer than average pools, typically around 40 feet, so you'll need adequate space in your backyard. While adding a lap pool can increase your home's value by about 7%, factors like the materials used and maintenance can affect the ROI. Also, potential buyers with young children or those wanting a traditional pool might not find a lap pool as appealing.

Fall is the best time to buy a lap pool. During this season, pool installation companies often offer special deals and savings to fill their schedules as business slows down. By purchasing your lap pool in the fall, you can take advantage of lower costs and ensure quality installation before the next swimming season.

To maintain your lap pool, regularly check the water level and add or drain water as needed. Test and balance the chemical levels to keep the water safe and clean. Inspect the tiles and surfaces for any damage, and promptly remove debris with a skimmer. Regularly vacuum the pool and clean the filter to ensure everything runs smoothly and your water stays crystal clear.
