Great experience with First Coast! I recently purchased a new house with pool equipment I was…read moreunfamiliar with as it differed from prior house. I contacted the pool installer to see if they could come give me tutorial on the equipment they installed but couldn't even get a call back. I contacted at-least 5 other pool companies for a tutorial/inspection and quote for weekly service. One told me to take pictures and come to their store (not helpful), 1 setup appointment but were no show. The other 3 wouldn't return calls or emails. First coast contacted me back within hours of my request and came out 2 days later. The owner was super friendly and explained everything to me and answered all my questions. Ended up setting up a weekly service to get pool under control. I may end up taking it over myself once I understand it more but they are so friendly I may just keep the weekly service. They have been here twice now, pool is clean, equipment is working and provide a email service report each week with photo of pool, chemical readings and summary of the chemicals added and services rendered. Highly recommend this growing company if you need pool service!!

Just over a year after installation, the new pool coating is failing. Multiple pool companies have…read moreinspected it and identified that the surface was not properly prepared prior to application. There are numerous voids where the coating did not adhere to the pool shell. Those sections are now discolored, and calcium flakes are forming where air voids exist behind the coating. Best Florida Pool and Spas acid washed the surface earlier this year. This would have been an opportunity to identify the adhesion problem, but the issue was either not recognized or not communicated to me. Separately, Best Florida Pool and Spas installed a heater a few years ago that remains under warranty. The circuit board has failed. I have requested the purchase invoice needed to file a warranty claim, and they have not provided it. My recommendation to anyone considering this company: put a formal written contract in place before proceeding, so that you have clear documentation and legal recourse if problems arise.

CM Pools was hired to do a complete pool remodel and replace brick pavers with travertine around…read morethe pool deck. Pros: 1) Entire project was completed in 10 weeks. 2) Overall remodel and look of the pool is what we wanted. 3) Communication was good until the final payment was made. 4) The glass tile installer (Jaxson) was great and did an excellent job. Cons: 1) We were not given a layout rendering at the start of the project. We were initially provided with another clients drawings, and our request for a layout rendering was only met with a sketch after we refused to sign the contract without one. 2) The estimate did not account for the adjustment of brick to travertine under our existing pool cage. They wanted to charge extra, which we refused to pay since nothing had structurally changed from when they came to give the estimate. In compromise, the brick pavers directly under the cage remained and I personally painted them at my expense. 3) Pool pump was not included in the estimate as I was initially told and was an additional $1800. 4) The pool company sent an electrician out to quote wiring for a heat pump, but a quote was never given. We had to personally hire another electrician. 5) There were 2 crews to remove brick pavers and install the travertine. The first crew was great and removed all of the brick pavers in a day. They never returned. After 2 weeks, CM did bring in another crew. This crew was much slower, smoked pot all day, everyday, and spent a good portion of their time fishing from our dock (as seen in the photo). 6) The installed travertine looked good, only the crew did not sand between most of the joints. The project manager stated that there was no need for the pavers to be sanded and that having no sand helps with water drainage. At my insistence, the manager came to do it himself, yet many joints remained unfilled. The gap pictures shown were taken after the project manager did his sanding. I then took 2 days and sanded the pool deck myself. 7) CM Pools does not seal travertine and they do not recommend doing so. Especially with the oyster - colored travertine, it definitely needs to be sealed as a green tinge starts to form right after the first rain. We spent a day cleaning and sealing the travertine a month after it was installed, using a specific travertine sealer. MUCH better! 8) CM Pools offer a month of pool cleanings once the project is complete and a "pool school" to teach pool chemistry, etc. We made the mistake of paying our final payment before the final pool cleaning. Our texts/calls went unanswered after that. We did not receive the final pool cleaning and there was definitely no "pool school." The pool tech called and said they were busy with other cleanings and if we had any questions to call them.

This isn't the review I thought I'd be writing. I wanted to write on about the beauty of our new…read morepool from CM Custom, and for the most part it is beautiful. For the most part it was good building experience, too. BUT. But, due to a lack of supervision during the building process, they left me with a punchlist. A list that is still not completed even on the one year anniversary of filling it with water. One item is the minor matter of grout that just needs to be cleaned up. It looks like a homeowner, and not a very careful one, did the grout, especially in one glaring location. It's embarrassing really. And, also embarrassing is the white adhesive that is showing between the lovely glass tiles - in a BLUE pool. No way the worker should have left it that way. The other outstanding item is the PAL Lighting LED lights that we agreed to do as a bit of an experiment - a very expensive experiment. They look great when they work. One light needed to be replaced in May of 2021. Hasn't happened yet and now they are turning on at all times of the day and night on their own. This is the second time it's happened and seems to be a shoddy product. So, overall is the pool beautiful? Yes. Did Clif design the pool exactly as I wanted it? Yes, Clif was great! And that's why they have two stars. Otherwise, I'm really disappointed in the company and their lack of interest in correcting the issues.
