Just wanted to say thank you for the great advice on managing my water chemistry! It's my first…read moreexperience with a frame pool. I have been reading lots of literature but could not get the water to balance properly. I brought in some water samples for testing and the staff worked with me to calculate the appropriate amount and mix of chemicals. Test was free, advice was free. Our water looks crystal clear today! I'll be back for future pool needs. Thank you!

Nothing they can do. OK, it's cosmetic not structural. Auto cover has been a nightmare, always crooked, repace fabric & ropes every 4-5 years. They serviced cover last month. Tightened drag on one drum completely smashed other drum left completely loose. Ripped stitched edges off cover & bent the pulley suports.They say it's not their fault.,I will be replacing auto cover ($12000). I will not have San Juan do it.

Had to go through Backyard Leisure to order a pump for our hot tub, and set up an install when the…read morepart came in. The tech who came out, Stone, was amazingly helpful and friendly. He went above and beyond to get our tub operational. When he discovered there was a small leak with the filter lid preventing circulation, he tried everything to make it work, but unfortunately couldn't. So, he offered to put in the order immediately and have the new part shipped to our house. He also gave me a workaround to keep the tub warm until we could complete the minor filter fix ourselves to avoid draining the hot tub again. As a first-time hot tub owner, I appreciated that he walked me through everything and tried his best to find a solution to our problem. Thank you, Stone!

Sadly out liner wasn't going to be in for awhile, but he did everything in his power to reach out and get a better idea of when it could come, but his representative never called him back. Which I feel is negligent on their part. Jim's hands were basically tied being at the mercy of her. I went and got adjustment I needed yesterday and they had my stuff ready the next morning. Their customer service young ladies were kind and helpful. The young man that loaded up our supplies was so nice, courtesies and knowledgeable. I would recommended Great Escape to anyone that ask me where to go! Thank you Great Escape for making this experience so easy for me as I had no idea what I was doing.

Do NOT use this company. I recently hired this company to install a pool liner. It has been the…read moreworst customer service experience that I have ever encountered. The manager Darryl never returned any of my phone calls or my emails. They did not show up for their appointment when they said they would. When I called and spoke with somebody in the office they said they can't guarantee when they will come out but I'm "on their list" and they are "slammed with customers". When they finally came out , they brought the wrong ladder, forgot the ladder pad and cut the gasket for the skimmer upon installation. After a few more days, I finally got a hold of the manager and notified him of this and he would not take any responsibility and said at least I got my liner and he hung up the phone. This is the worst company for pools.

I would give no stars if this was an option! Long time…read morecustomer treated terribly! Was seeking pool liner and told a price. 10 days and many calls back and forth to two of their stores, talking to several salesman being told different prices and product locations, being told I would be called back, I finally got someone who seemed to know the price which was $50 more than price quoted at first. I reluctantly agreed and put it on hold to pick up the next day. We get there they couldnt find the liner at first (it was supposed to be set aside with my name on it) and then was told the price had now gone up another $80. When we told him that was not the price we were quoted yesterday he said he didn't believe it was true! I was basically called a liar! I really think they need to train their staff better or man the helm with someone who has authority to quote a price and keep a promise! I had heard bad things throughout the years about this place but had not really experienced any real problems with them. I wont do business with people who dont have integrity! I will never walk into their stores again nor will I refer them to ANYONE!
