"Needed a complete replacement on a 600+ sq ft wood deck. Donald, one of the owners, quoted a very fair price for building a replacement deck with composite deck boards. And, was able to start quickly. Final project had an integral bench, railings, and lights. Project was complete in five days. Looks beautiful. The work crew was very efficient and Donald was at the site daily and communicated well. Clean up was excellent. Highly recommend J Ingram Contractors for decks and porches."

Serving his country in Iraq from 2004-2005, in that time he received the Purple Heart and the Army Commendation Medal with Valor. As a Veteran owned company, our approach is simple.

We are a professional, reliable, affordable and serve Jacksonville, Jacksonville Beach, Ponte Vedra Beach, Neptune Beach, Atlantic Beach and St. Johns County.
"They gave a good quote and said they were able to do the work in a timely manner. Project started fine and we’re done with main part in two days. However, they didn’t set up the automation system correctly and there was a leak. They fixed the leak. After a third time of saying the automation didn’t work I finally fixed the automation system. They did send an electrician out to install the lights on the automation. Still have to come back to fix the spa which wasn’t on the original work but still isn’t working correctly. Overall good but not great and somewhat slow but reliable. They were much better than first company I hired who never showed up in two months."

A comprehensive pool opening service involves removing and storing the winter cover, inspecting all mechanical systems, reassembling filtration equipment, cleaning surfaces, checking for damage, adjusting water levels, and balancing chemicals. Technicians will reinstall accessories such as ladders and handrails while properly ensuring all safety features function. The goal is to deliver a completely prepared aquatic environment for immediate enjoyment.
The optimal timing for seasonal preparation occurs when daytime temperatures consistently reach 65 to 70°F. Opening too early wastes chemicals and potentially increases heating costs, while delaying too long allows algae to establish difficult-to-remove colonies. Climate considerations vary by region, with southern locations often requiring earlier preparation than northern areas. Most professionals recommend erring on the earlier side to prevent water quality complications.
For homeowners handling the process themselves, expect to invest approximately four to six hours, depending on pool size and winter conditions. Professional services complete standard openings more efficiently due to specialized equipment and experience. Very large installations or those requiring extensive cleaning may extend the timeframe considerably. The process involves multiple steps that cannot be rushed without compromising results.
Professional seasonal preparation offers significant advantages, including proper chemical balancing, expert equipment handling, and early problem detection. The service costs between $200 and $400, which is a wise investment when considering the technical expertise, specialized equipment, and potential problem prevention involved. Many homeowners find the convenience and confidence in proper preparation worth the investment, particularly for complex systems or after challenging winter conditions.
