Incredible business! Employees are always so helpful! Shoutout to this local gem. Very grateful to visit.

Customer service is not the best, and as we got 2-3 guys cleaning one excellent but after the switch it went back to poor service! So im switching. read more

Terrible customer service. I only dealt with some angry older woman (I could tell from her voice). Super rude and sounded annoyed to even answer the phone. Imagine how she is in person? 0 stars. read more

After being advised to use a product for my pool, my pool is damaged, instead of saying sorry or at least refunding the purchase, the owner Sal verbally assaulted me. Then a woman employee or wife? followed me out of the store and sexually (verbally) abused me as well. They upsell and Dont listen, hence mistakes and damage is done. read more

Don't use these guys. Two weeks after they took over my pool turned green in spots. The owner Sal called me and after me trying to figure out why they could not maintain my pool clean, Sal the owner said "you know what clean your own fu*king pool" and hung up. No big deal... he is the owner of a failing business but he won't get my money going forward. No way for a community business to treat their local customers. read more

Horrible customer service.... their equipment is outdated and they do not have a lot of options. The make there is rude.

Don't come to this place, they don't know anything about pools. They carry cheap equipment .

After a recent experience, I thought I'd share and maybe save someone time and money if they are looking for a pool cleaner or be on the look out if you currently use them.. I just had the worst service from Dowmey Pool store. Come to notice the past 2 weeks the pool guy from there was doing less than a half fast job. He scrubbed one side of pool and just tossed by mobile floor cleaner in the pool and left. I come home to see it still dirty except for a small 2x2 spot and that is because the mobile cleaner doesn't work so we don't use it but he thought he'd just toss it in and leave. I could that myself if that the services I wanted. So the pool gets worse until the following week he comes back again and does the same thing. My GF mother saw him do the exact same thing, only this time the mobile cleaner isn't around because I threw it away, so he scrubs half a wall and tells her to tell us to just out the mobile cleaner in So now the pool is starting to turn green. We call the store and told the guy but says he can't come back to fix the cleaning because they are too busy. Canceled with them and they didn't even bother to ask why were canceling. Worst customer service I've experineced. read more

My pentair Pool pump broke. I started doing research and came across Downey pool supply, since it was not to far decided to go . I can not be more impressed with the level of customer service, professionalisms and honesty. Saul and his wife gave us the absolute best service. With this current pandemic you do not expect any less. I brought in my pump and Saul checked my motor prior to just offering me a new one just to get a sale. He was honest and knew what he was talking about. He provided us with a great deal and also provided us with 1 year warranty on the motor. While researching, Leslie's pools was a lot higher in price. I would recommend Downey pool. They have great service, great selection and repair service They have made a customer for life. Thank you, Happy customer!! read more

No wonder this place is always empty. Female employee working on 07/18/24 might have the worst customer service I've ever experienced, she may also be a bit racist and is very unknowledgeable about pool supplies. I was looking for a ceramic seal for my pool motor and she couldn't answer a single question and started to be very rude and condescending. Stay away from this place and go to any other pool place not here. If you have an accent don't come here because they'll treat you like they can't help you. Wouldn't be surprised if this place closes down soon. Many people have had the same experience in these reviews. STAY AWAY read more

I would give them zero stars if possible. I called to purchase 2 spa filters. I called because Leslie's and East Long Beach Pool and spa were sold out. When I called, the lady who answered the phone was very rude. I told her I needed a PMA40L and a PMA25 filter. She said those "don't exist" and I am looking for a "cartridge" and cartridges don't have letters. I asked her the difference and she said "well we don't have it" and hung up on me. Never will I recommend supporting this business. Not only were they rude, but they obviously have no idea what they are talking about. Take your business elsewhere. read more

Poor service and horrible customer service. Maintenance technician shows up for 5 minutes and leaves. Recently cleaned my filter and left a mess everywhere. Dirt on the floor, did not clean it up and tried washing it down the drain to clog up the drains around the pool. No common sense. Saul tries to justify the poor service instead of trying to make the matter better. Do not use their service. read more

Downey Pool Service has been servicing our pool for many years and their service is great in every need. They respond to our requests right away and always with a very professional response and very friendly . They give acknowledged advice in what your pool or equipment needs. I do recommend this business and Thank you for your care and service. This is in Downey and not Bell Gardens as it shows my location. read more

Went in for advice because I had to fire my pool guy. Great customer service. She took my water sample and steered me in the right direction. My pool looks amazing now ! read more

Downey Pool Supplies & Service - One picture is worth a thousand words - Hot Tub & Pool Near Me - Downey, California

If I could give zero I would. This company took advantage of my grandma. She has a salt water pool that was in perfect condition and our pool guy was moving away. We have been using Downey now for almost 6 months and my grandma has called multiple times to ask how the guy is taking care of the pool when he would go weeks without showing up and when he does come he is here for no more than 15 minutes to skim the top of the pool. They pretend like she's never called every time she speaks with them so we got a second opinion and we are now cancelling the service because the repairs that are needed are going to cost her thousands of dollars. The salinity is way off, the filter has never been serviced, there is green spots, the salinity is so bad that it's eating away at the sealant on the pool walls. They are a terrible pool service and should be ashamed of themselves for taken advantage of a woman who can't go check the filters for herself. I hope this review stops anyone else who is looking into their company for any services. read more

Male owner EXTREMELY RUDE! Just wanted to get an idea of what something would cost for my pool and because I didn't give him my full address bluntly told me to find someone else and hung up on me. ??? I don't even understand what happened. Horrible! You don't treat people like that. Will never call them again. read more

Great Downey business. We should all be supporting them honestly. Good people always do their best to answer my questions. Saul one of the owners has gone out of his way to help me with my pool. Highly recommend getting everything through them and supporting a small business owners. read more

Both owner and wife make shocking excuses for the poor service? I ask Saul if my pool was serviced and no reply...I follow up and he says yes. I tell him pool not vacuumed and his reply "dont you have an automatic vacuum?" YES....but it doesnt go into spa or baja so had to send photos showing him! Claudia tells me in that same month rates are going up! I bring up to her the irony of poor service while increased prices and it 'escapes' her...she said "didnt we go back out and fix it?" YES Claudia...but why is it my responsibility to double check and "catch you" lying on service you charge for but don't do! Then she gets upset with me for confronting her on this?? Instead of trying to work it out they choose to make excuses and blame customer for their doing?? Nice people but no accountability. read more

I called in to get availability on a pool system part and the person I talked to was rude right off the bat. Making it clear that I knew nothing about pools and that by naming every single part it could be my question was to vague. The reason I called is to get some assistance and get pointed to the correct part I needed and ultimately make a purchase. Terrible experience, spending my money elsewhere! read more

Love this place! Saul had been to our house before & had told the previous owner what was wrong with our pool & the previous owner didn't want to put the money into fixing the pool so when we had Saul come he already knew what was wrong, he gave us a great quote and him & his workers were her everyday and did a great job. Highly recommend them... read more

When I first started buying my pool supplies here I thought that the customer service was great and they were very helpful when it came to answering questions. And I would have gladly given this business a 5 star rating if it weren't for the fact that if you need anything aside from supplies, the customer service isn't up to par. The pool in the backyard had been out of commission for a long time, and when we moved in and wanted to get it running we found that the parts are hard to come by since it's a very old pool. So for this summer we wanted to put a heater in so we can enjoy the pool, since no matter what season it is, the water is always freezing. I got in touch with Downey Pool Supply or Downey Pool Supplies & Services (apparently they go by both names) over the phone and wanted someone to come out to see if the heater was repairable or not. Whoever I spoke to said that someone would be out here that Saturday (I called in during the weekday) and that was fine and I gave them my info. Saturday came and went and no one bothered to give me a call to say that they weren't showing up. I called the following Monday to see what happened, and this time I spoke to Saul (the owner) and he said that there were no records of an appointment under my name. That was strike one, or at least it should have sent the red flags up. I made yet another appointment for someone to come look at the heater and this time they did show up. The guy who showed up said that it was best to get a new heater since the pool is old, which is fine. He also recommended that "important issues" be fixed as well, which include something about breaking the concrete around the pool area and fixing the tubes and stuff. At the moment I thought it was necessary but I have now seen it would have been an unnecessary expense. We were billed $125 for this guy to come out and just look around at our pool. A couple days later, we got a bill in the mail for that amount. I spoke to Saul and said we were gonna go ahead with the heater (they were charging $2600+) but told him we needed a month because we were remodeling, at which he said OK. That meant we didn't have to pay that $125 for the guy coming out. Getting in touch with Saul is very difficult. With other pool services businesses, it's not that hard to get in touch with someone. And from what I hear those businesses value their customers and they give them priority. Here, I got no priority. I would call and ask for Saul and he wouldn't call me back until 2 days later, after I had called again. We got billed again for that estimate, although Saul and I had an agreement, and a letter saying that if we didn't pay they would send that to a collection agency or whatever, which I feel is unnecessary since I was constantly trying to get in touch with Saul. That letter was the last straw, I went in and paid the $125 this past Saturday. I called another company and they come out here so fast and installed a new heater without all the hassle of having to pay for an estimate or try to get in touch with the owner. Oh, and also they didn't try to get us to break the concrete around the pool or any unnecessary things that the guy that came out here from Downey Pool Supply said we needed. And the overall cost, was a lot less than that of of the cost Downey Pool Supply was charging us. Very disappointing service. P.S.-Here's a little something to think about for you yelpers out there...the owner of this business is Saul Conde, isn't it a little weird that a Saul C. from Downey, CA (the business is also in Downey, CA) gave this business a 5 star review...hmm.... read more

I sent my husband to go check out this store because we planned a pool party at my parents house. We wanted to get some ideas and see about supplies. The service here is not the best. When my husband was there he asked a few questions about ideas for pool parties. The person that was there wasn't rude but wasn't helpful. He basically told my husband to look around. They do carry a lot of supplies so if you now what you are looking for its the best place for you. My husband bought a few pool toys. They are not that expensive. reasonable. read more

This place saved me! I drove down from Burbank because they have great variety of stuff! Best part: Greatest customer service ever!!! (Almost unheard of these days!) This is why it's best to shop at small businesses! read more

By far the greatest!!!This review is long overdue,They were so helpful and knowledgeable it made my life so easy, I would recommend this business establishment to EVERYONE. Downey pool supply owner Saul and his wife gave the best advice and did all the work for me. I called them before the spring break since my pool had turned green and needed that taken care if immediately so my family could enjoy the pool over Easter weekend, well I called and had no idea what to do, they simply asked me to bring in a sample for testing, that easy!!! Saul made accommodations literally the same day which is unheard of at anyother place I've done business with.I originally thought my only problem was algae and upon his inspection of my pool he immediately pointed out the problems that were causing my pool to turn green (besides it being serviced by someone else)my filter and pump were not properly functioning which I would Never have known had he not gone ABOVE AND BEYOND HIS CALL OF DUTY to help us. He never tried to upsale anything to us and simple suggested my husband clean the filter or that we had the option of him gladly doing it at a relatively lower price especially compared to leslies. Anyway, I was beyond satisfied with their customer service and detailed workmanship. I am so glad they are local and they have definitely won over my loyalty as a new customer and look forward to doing business with them. Thank you Saul and wife read more

I used to get my pool supplies at a store that's technically more conveniently located to where I live. But after wandering into Downey Pool Supply one day I made it my store despite that it's a little out of the way. Great service! Knowledgeable! Sincere! read more

Staff is always friendly, prompt and professional. They have always been helpful and offered reasonable solutions to issues.

I called Downey Pool Supplies and Service to schedule service on my pool motor digital control panel, which was fried. The person who answered the phone was extremely rude, abrasive and condescending towards me. When I tried to explain the problem to him, he would continually interrupt me, and then say that I was not listening to him. He asked me a question, and when I told him that I did not understand his question, he yelled, "Oh, Jesus!" I would NOT RECOMMEND doing business with these arrogant losers! They do not place any value on customer service! read more

Claudia and Saul at Downey Pool are the most helpful and knowledgeable people if you anything related to pool supplies, repair or service. I can't say enough about how good their entire approach is to their field. Every time I go in either one of them are helpful and always try to guide us through taking care of our own pool since we let our pool guy go. I usually deal with Claudia and I would consider her a friend. She takes the time to think of the best and most economical way to deal with my specific situation. I read some of the other negative comments and it made me laugh to see that these people were for example, insulted that Claudia just stared at this one particular lady. Duh... It was because she was thinking!!! Of the most appropriate and economical way to help her. So offended, so easily. And there were some other ones that just wanted to blame Saul because of their own error/neglect. These two are the nicest, most considerate people in business I have come across. I highly, highly recommend them as we all know that Leslies Pool is a chain and it is all about selling as much as possible. Saul and Claudia are a family run business which I love supporting and if you want honest answers and real results, use them. You won't be dissapointed!! read more

After over 15 years of service, sadly it has come to an end. The business is under new ownership & the service is terrible. They are charging additional fees for services that were already paid for in advance. After bringing this to their attention the owners response was... Take it or leave it. Very unprofessional. read more

First off to add it all they kicked me out when it was ten minutes before closing and we are 14 years old customers like everyone so you are treating us different from society and is calling us kids stupid as shit in there reply to are compliant!!!! read more

Needed a close, fast fix for my above ground pool. The woman who helped me is very knowledgable and was VERY helpful. She gave me suggestions on care and on adding shock powder to my pool. The store had a great selection of all different pool supplies, pool toys, etc... I was impressed. Usually I would go to Wal-Mart for my pool supplies,trying to save a few bucks...but they are ALWAYS OUT of what I want or need! Downey Pool Supply had everything I needed and more. read more

After having bad experiences these past few days in pool stores I finally found this one! Wow seriously service was amazing. My cousin was the one who took me there to buy sand and tubes for my sand filter and it the first Store that didn't shine me off because I have a above grand pool! Definitely going back. Thank you ! ps when i walked in the store my cousins said ask her mind you we were talking to each other and the lady there right away said ask me ask me anything I can help you! Great customer service! read more

The staff here is super friendly and they're always going above and beyond to help with your needs. They helped my husband and I save our Spa when we thought it couldn't be saved anymore. I'd recomend Downey Pool Service to anyone!! read more

Stay away! They have unfair trading policies! When I was buying my vacuum, they told me that it will work with any kind of pump. As it turned out, it was not true! The vacuum never worked and they never took it back! Besides, very unpleasant and mean people, with absolutely no respect to customers! Stay away! Blah! read more

Downey Pool Service is great! My wife and I are pleased with the service to our pool and the customer service is exceptional. Saul at Downey Pools knows his stuff. Our pool looks great! Thanks. read more

I called Saul, the owner, nearly a year ago when, after dealing with poor service from other pool companies. My pool turned and remained green for the third time in a year. Within a week, he had it crystal clean. I started having them service my pool every week and the do an amazing job! Last month, I had them re-plaster the pool and replace the piping, electric, pump and filter. The pool looks amazing! Saul is knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. He responds quickly to inquiries and is attentive to concerns. I have never once had an issue with billing (as previous reviewers reported) and Claudia has been friendly and helpful every time I call the store. read more

These people are great. Prices are competitive, and service is top notch. I drive past 2 Leslie's Pool Sypplies to get here!

The lady seemed like she didnt want to help me, answer my questions, or sell me anything. The reason i was here was because my pool filter pump burned out. Any question i asked her, she responded with a rude question. Example, will that pool filter system work on my pool? Response "no, but i have a $400 system and i know you dont want that one right?" she just kept looking at me like i was a nuisance. Idk if it was cause of how i looked, or what, but i wouldn't spend a penny here after the way she treated me. read more

After calling different companies, I was lucky to find Downey Pool Supplies and Service. Amazing service over the phone and Saul was just perfect! He came over and assessed our pool and equipment. Gave us cost effective advice and set up service for us. We had been debating about buying a pool vacuum and Saul made a suggestion that we absolutely love!! Delivered and installed it the SAME DAY! Talk about good old fashioned honest, reliable and personal service! If you're looking for pool service, look no further! This is your place!! read more
