I met with Jordan Trent, the designer for my pool. Although I had limited pool design knowledge, I…read morehad a general idea of what I wanted. Jordan did his best to meet my expectations. However, before the pool was completed, I learned that he had been let go from the company for unknown reasons, which raised a red flag for me. Despite this, I continued with Waterscapes and was assigned a project manager named Grayson Whitman. Grayson communicated smoothly and effectively, and I ignored several red flags, convinced that the final result would turn out well. In hindsight, I deeply regret not overseeing the project more closely and not expressing my concerns more assertively when something didn't look right. This experience has taught me the importance of vigilance and assertiveness in such projects. My disappointment with the craftsmanship of the pool and spa is profound. Waterscapes hired some of the lowest-quality contractors I have ever encountered. Within just over a year, my pool has faced several issues. For instance, the pavers were installed unevenly and are on a slope that seems too steep. Also, mold has started growing between the pavers, a clear sign of poor workmanship. Moreover, the cage has begun to rust, and the screening is breaking due to being stretched too tightly. Given my price for the pool and spa, I expected them to last longer before showing signs of wear. The fact that these defects appeared within the first year after completion was unexpected and disappointing. You may wonder if I reported these issues, and the answer is yes. However, most of my complaints were dismissed despite believing they were justified. I encourage potential buyers to be cautious when dealing with this company. All the problems I mentioned arose just over a year after I had the pool installed. As you might expect, they offer only a one-year warranty, and once that period is up, they will not even take your call. I could share much more, but this platform only allows limited information. If you have questions, please feel free to reach out. I will respond openly and honestly and can provide pictures if you'd like. I have documented the issues I faced with Waterscapes extensively and am more than willing to share them to help you make an informed decision. Considering the cost, craftsmanship, time, and patience required to complete this project, I would give Waterscapes Pools & Spas an overall grade of D- for this project. Thank you.

I would highly recommend Nelson Pool company. We were in…read moredesperate need of a refinish of our dusting pool. The process from beginning to end was amazing. They gave us a free estimate, Nelson looked over our pool and told us what to expect. They chipped off our tiles, sanded down the existing bottom. We picked out the new bottom surface (mini pebbles aqua cool) and waterline tiles. They installed everything in a timely manner and answered all questions. Lien, who is the office manager, communicates effectively and promptly. We are still in the "start up" phase of balancing chemicals and haven't been able to swim in it yet, but it's been a pleasure working with this company. Highly recommend.

When they first arrived they had the audacity to park their truck on our front lawn and wanted to mix the PebbleTec 'knock off' product while parked on the lawn! I told them to get the truck off of the lawn but they still ruined a large part of my front lawn when they hosed off the their buckets, wheel barrel and tarp On the grass. The cement and or chemical materials killed the lawn In one area. The crew also dumped buckets of some liquid (diluted acid?) into my flower beds and killed a few plants. The entire process was a complete f'up. They put down a few pieces of new sod in our front yard but it all died. They also put in a new plant to replace the one that they killed with diluted acid(?) that they poured in the flower bed by the pool. That plant died soon after and another one I planted there died too. When we were able to use the pool we noticed that the surface of the pool was so rough and sharp that it actually cut our feet and we ended up having to use water shoes so our feet dint get cut. Bottom line.. I would not recommend Nelson Pools to resurface your pool.

We have a 25 ft pool in a rectangular design specifically to provide enough space to swim short laps if you wish or just to laze around in if you wish. It is self-cleaning and the heater and pump are silent. We are using their excellent pool service, and the service rep comes on the same day each week and is very thorough. Finally, they are not remotely salesy and happy to provide all the information you need whether you buy or not and their pricing is competitive. I'd recommend them as the best in the area.

Building a pool is a big investment with lots of decisions, but they helped make a tough process go smoothly. We always felt like our project mattered. Even though ours could be considered a fairly average build, they treated us like we were building a luxury pool. Amanda and Steve helped us put the design together and find financing. We appreciated their amazing ideas and abundance of patience...especially since we changed our minds a few times. Zach was our construction manager who brought the dream to reality. Stephanie also deserves a special thank-you for keeping us informed throughout the process. There were a few hiccups along the way, as you'd expect with a construction project, but they were all addressed. We appreciated knowing that when something came up, the team would work through it with us. Now that it's finished, we love how the sun shelf, waterfall, blue tile, and pavers all came together. It has completely transformed our backyard, and we're enjoying it every day. We're so glad we chose DuWet and would absolutely recommend them!

We are thrilled to share our experience and extend our deepest gratitude to Trusted Pool and Spa…read morefor the extraordinary work they have done. When we decided to invest in our backyard oasis, we knew that finding a reliable and trustworthy company was of utmost importance. After researching extensively and meeting with several pool contractors, we chose Trusted Pool and Spa, and could not be happier with that decision. Their level of open communication made us feel valued as a customer and assured us that our satisfaction was their top priority. The construction phase did come with a few bumps and bruises along the way, as with nearly EVERY major project. However, the TPS crew always worked diligently to resolve any bumps and bruises to our satisfaction, and that every aspect of the project was completed with precision. We can confidently say their commitment to customer satisfaction extends far beyond the completion of the project, and even beyond their contracted warranties/commitments as they have been readily available to answer any questions and offer ongoing support. We wholeheartedly recommend Trusted Pool and Spa to anyone seeking a dependable, professional, and passionate team for their pool and spa needs. They have proven themselves to be a company that takes pride in their work and goes above and beyond to exceed expectations. Thank you, Trusted Pool and Spa, for transforming our backyard into our Family Oasis -- We could not be happier with the outcome!

I would not recommend them. The color we had verbally agreed which they sent in a photo of a pool…read morethey had done (see below) and which I had agreed in texts, was not the color used. In the quote, the color is incorporated in the type of the material and listed under the Material Used section. I assumed Aqua Cool was a further description of the Material Used. Aqua means water in French and Cool is not a color, so Aqua Cool Stonescape Mini Pebbles sounded the right material for a pool with cool water. The color I had chosen was French Gray. The quote included a very small photo of a swatch, HOWEVER it did not STATE AT WHAT DEPTH the photo was taken and therefore there is no way to determine color based upon a swatch and no reference to depth. ALSO having agreed French Gray so many times, I was not expecting to have to re-approve the color. I spent $20,000. They are suggesting I PAY THEM another $12,000 plus all the start up costs to achieve the color we agreed. BUYER BEWARE.
