a pool in a backyard
Evelyn A.

I absolutely recommend Roy for anyone looking for a pool installed. He worked very fast and communicated very well. The pool came out better than I could imagine. I'm super happy with the results . Thank you Lara Pools & Spas!

Misty R.

This review is long overdue. Roy was a pleasure to work with from start to finish. Everything from the design and digging process, to the rock and tile work was done efficiently and with great craftsmanship. I have recommended him to several people since he completed our pool and would definitely have him build another pool for us as well!

I would like to start by highly recommending Roy Lara to do any Pool /Spa Job.He is very knowledgeable and easy person to work with .His bid was very reasonable and gave us many ideas for our project . Our Job was completed on schedule and we are very happy with the final outcome.

We got a pool with raised hot tub a rock waterfall and slide for our kids...we are so impressed with his work...we are 99% finished

See all

Wow! Absolutely amazed! We had a terrible issue with black mold and 3 pools that were in terrible…read morecondition. James responded to my inquiry same day. He offered to test my water and clean my filter on the spot even before I hired him. I immediately loved James' attention to detail and his care for doing a great job and delivering a sparkling pool. He cleaned my filter and tested my pool and went on with the rest of his busy schedule. The next day, I was given a reasonable estimate for ridding my black mold and for servicing my three pools. We hired James. It's been three months now and we are impressed and over satisfied with how James delivered. James spent a week working tirelessly to rid the black mold without having to drain our pool. We had a relapse after a few weeks and James went back at no additional cost and got it back under control. As far as our pool maintenance; each week we get an email from James with the results of the water testing, what chemicals he put in the pools to keep them at the right level, and a picture of our sparkling pools. Pools that looked dark and greenish before are now bright sparkly blue. Thank you James for being so amazing! You have taken a huge burden and stress away from us.

He's exactly what the name promises--a genuinely nice guy who's also incredibly professional and reliable. James shows up on time every week, rain or shine, and keeps our pool crystal clear without us ever having to worry about it. He's friendly, easy to talk to, and always willing to answer questions or explain what's going on with the pool. You can tell he really knows his stuff and takes pride in his work. It's rare to find someone this consistent, competent, and trustworthy these days. Highly recommend James and Nice Guy Pool Service to anyone who wants peace of mind and a beautiful pool year-round. Five stars all the way!

Avoid! This is a non-licensed person who gave us a low-ball quote, took our money up front and then…read moredisappeared. After multiple outreaches and stops/starts on a project to replace a skimmer he finally completed the work with the exception of pouring the concrete. We hired another, licensed company who ended up having to re-do everything because it was not done correctly. We even found a work shirt with the owners' logo on it wadded up and blocking the return pipe. Because of all the delays, our pool became an algae-filled lagoon and we had to have it drained and acid washed. This job ended up costing 3x what we thought we would have to pay, but at least the other company finished it on-time. Avoid!

Where or where to start..... Well back in July of this year we signed with Mathew Gonzalez to redo…read moreour pool. He asked for a $6,000 deposit to start the work. We paid not knowing what laid ahead. By the first week of September the pool was finally starting the demolition phase where the coping and plaster were removed. This process alone took Mathew until October 22 to have completed. In the meantime we sent countless messages to him asking him when the work in our pool would continue. Many times he didn't respond at all or answer his phone. Every time he had an excuse as to why he was unavailable and promised to come soon to finish the job. This went on for 2 months. He continued to ask for more money even though very little or no work was being done. Fast forward to the end of October where we finally fired him for his incompetence in completing the pool renovation as agreed upon. We spoke to him and asked for some of our money back and he agreed to pay us back. What a joke! We have written him twice asking for a reimbursement since he never completed the project. He is refusing to respond. We fully intend to take him to small claims court. A week ago, we got a knock on the door by one of his employees. It appears that he hired this guy to do the pool demolition and never paid him a dime. Come to find out there are 2 other families that he did this to as well. All parties are filing suit against him. Please please be very weary with Mathew Gonzalez. He will say a lot and deliver nothing! He is a dishonest person looking to get money and that's all. If he has done this to you please go to court. That's the only way he will be stopped and not do this to others again. I take full responsibility for not checking into him before agreeing to have our pool completed by him. That being said, I just want to warn others not to fall for his lies and get taken advantage of. Our pool now has been completed by a very reputable company and it looks AMAZING!

I reached out to Joseph for an estimate to repair or replace our pool heater and saltwater system,…read moreand I was really impressed with his professionalism. He responded quickly, took the time to thoroughly explain my options, and even walked me through how to apply for a rebate to help save money. His communication was excellent throughout the process. He followed up promptly and often replied early in the morning or late in the evening to make sure I had the information I needed. We received multiple estimates, and his pricing was among the fairest. In the end, we didn't move forward with Joseph because my aunt decided to go with someone who came highly recommended through a personal referral. That decision wasn't a reflection of Joseph's work. Based on my experience with him, I would absolutely recommend reaching out to him for a pool project.

A new heater would cost a few thousand dollars and most repairman say that the parts have been discontinued for this old heater. I was contacted by Joel and he assured me that he can use his resources to find the parts needed to fixed my old unit and have it done at the fraction of the price of a new heater. Joel has great communication with me, I think the longest I've waited for a tax return was only 15 minutes and that's because he was in a conference. Super nice guy! I highly recommend this company.
