"If I could give this company a 6 out of 5 stars I would! They did a fantastic job overhauling my mother's deck, back patio, fencing, and front portico. All of the work was absolutely essential for safety and structural reasons, and I'm so glad I chose OSSA to do the work. My mother has Alzheimer's, which presented additional issues, but the entire crew was incredibly kind, respectful, and understanding of the unique challenges they faced. They were responsive and kept me aware of everything regarding the job along the way. My mother is so pleased, and I have the peace of mind that all of her outdoor space is safe, beautiful, and accessible. I will be hiring OSSA to do some work in my own home, as I look to make necessary improvements in the future. I've told everyone I know how how wonderful they are. 6 out of 5 stars!"

"DO NOT use this company. I went through Lowes to have a composite deck built. Working with them was an absolute nightmare. It took them 3 months to even START the job. I discovered the reason for the delay is because when they filed the permit (which took them 6 weeks to do), the contractor's license was expired. It then took them another 5 weeks to update their license in order to get the permit. They ordered and installed a completely differently railing style than what was on the contract/design, then blamed me for the mistake. Rather than ordering a new product, they cut the existing one to make it work. I am now 9 months post project, and the railing has warped, the deck is sloped, and the overall quality is horrible. Worst of all, turns out they NEVER GOT IT INSPECTED! I learned that Lowes had to fire them due to MULTIPLE issues with the company. I am thankful I have Lowes to help rectify the issues, but if i didn't, I would be pursuing legal action against them!"

The crew are real craftsmen with a proactive eye for detail and aesthetics. They had to deal with significant challenges along the way... and they got through it all, cheerfully and collaboratively despite one of the most challenging jobsites I am sure they have ever had to deal with. Toney and Rey were great partners to us, helping us make decisions and navigate these challenges, and working flexibly with us when we realized we needed to change the plan a bit.

They were careful to leave us happy and proud of our new deck and have been responsive with a few small warranty fixes too. I am proud of the deck and proud of them for their excellent work."

The monthly operating cost for an endless pool ranges from $20 to $50, primarily depending on usage frequency, desired water temperature, and local energy rates. Heating represents the largest portion of ongoing expenses, especially during colder months or for indoor installations maintained at higher temperatures. Modern energy-efficient models with quality insulation and covers help minimize these costs compared to older systems or traditional swimming pools.
With proper maintenance, endless pools last between 15 and 25 years. The structure outlasts mechanical components, with pumps and heaters often requiring replacement after seven to 10 years of regular use. Vinyl liners need replacement every five to 10 years, while fiberglass shells and concrete constructions offer greater longevity. Regular water chemistry management, prompt repairs, and protection from extreme weather conditions significantly extend useful life.
When comparing total project expenses, endless pools cost less than full-sized traditional swimming pools. While endless pools have a higher cost per square foot ($250 to $300 compared to traditional pools' $50 to $125), their significantly smaller footprint results in lower overall costs.
Traditional in-ground pools range from $50,000 to $100,000 fully installed, while endless pools average $23,000 to $40,000. Endless pools also require less maintenance and consume fewer chemicals than larger swimming pools.
Endless pools can function year-round in cold regions with appropriate heating systems and insulation. Many homeowners in northern areas install their endless pools indoors or add enclosures (costing $3,900 to $12,000) for winter protection.
While heating costs increase during colder months, efficient models with quality covers minimize energy consumption. Indoor installations eliminate weather concerns entirely but require proper ventilation and moisture control systems to prevent humidity damage to surrounding structures.
