Our pool is ready to go! Thanks for the help by Jon at Leslie's Pool Supply :)
Summer C.

We got a 8ft Inflatable Pool from Amazon and we needed to treat the water with chlorine. I've never owned a pool before so I had absolutely no idea where to even begin. I was told by a friend to go to Leslie's and they would tell me exactly what I needed. I called in ahead of time and Jon told me to bring in a sample of my tap water so they could test it and let me know exactly what I needed. We went in and met Jon and he was so great. Full of information! Just so friendly and knowledgeable. He spent a lot of time with us and we were very happy with our experience.

John took the time to understand my pool concerns and set me up with everything I needed. I had just had the pool acid washed and refilled and was balancing the chems. The company that washed the pool said they added conditioner but the test strips said otherwise. So after adding the chems to the pool and realizing this, I called john and are you ready for this? He delivered the stabilizer to me on his way home! Who does that? If i have a question I just call him up and he tells me how to handle it. Nobody provides better pool supply service. There's a vendor much closer to me but the owner's a bipolar @%&#$ so I make the trek to Lake Forest. Nice to be treated like a valued customer. Thanks John, you're the best.

I am a new pool owner, I have been using Leslie from day one... They "guaranteed " a algae free pool if I followed their instructions.... 6+ visits later, and over$400 spent. Never have they "followed up" Terrible excuse making, zero results.

From the very beginning, Jim Eldridge made a huge impression -- he came out to our home multiple times, sat at our kitchen table, and walked us through everything with complete transparency. He even pointed out details that other companies we met with never mentioned, which really built our confidence in choosing Swan. The design they created for our space was beautiful. Our yard ended up feeling even bigger than we realized, and they did an amazing job optimizing every inch. Like with any major construction project, there were a few unexpected things that came up, but Swan handled everything with honesty and professionalism every step of the way. Beyond the pool itself, the craftsmanship stood out in every part of the project -- from the pavers to the barbecue island and the beautiful masonry work, the attention to detail was clear. We especially want to give a big shout-out to Johnny, our project manager -- we nicknamed him "Johnny on the Spot" because he was always available when we needed him. He and Juan gave us great recommendations throughout the process, helping us make small adjustments that truly made a big difference in the final result. Anytime a question or decision popped up, Johnny handled it with great communication, care, and a genuine commitment to exceeding our expectations. Annie was also incredibly helpful during the selection process -- she was so patient in helping us navigate the many tile and pebble options (and there are a lot to choose from). The whole construction stayed on track and moved along smoothly. We were lucky to have good weather, but even with that, Swan's organization and follow-through really kept everything moving on schedule. We're so grateful to their entire team for making this a smooth, exciting, and ultimately beautiful transformation of our backyard. Highly recommend!!

He and his team finished the pool two weeks ahead of schedule, and the quality of the work was excellent from start to finish. We needed special accommodations for a rehab lift so we could get in and out of the pool safely, and Modul Pools accommodated that without any trouble. The pool is 4 to 6 feet deep and fits our backyard perfectly. It's raised six inches above ground level and finished with beautiful tile, and the mini pebble interior looks great. The equipment is high quality, and the craftsmanship shows in every detail. We've enjoyed the pool every day since it was finished. We'd recommend Modul Pools to anyone considering a pool, especially first-timers and anyone with accessibility needs, and we'd happily work with Johnny again.

A simple 9x18 pool will take them over 7 months to fully complete from excavation (Nov 2025). Your project will not be a priority because all their resources go to their other company, Modul Pools, that claims to "build a pool in 6 weeks or less". If you hire OC Poolscapes, you will have to project manage their project managers to get them to do anything. If not, communication will be nonexistent. But even with me being on top of them, they don't answer calls, return calls, or even respond to texts. Not the owner (Malkiel), not the managers (Michael, Brandon, Jason, Brendan) , not even their assistants (Ulysses, Sam, Bernardo). With 5+ employees in the group chat they set up, it's hard to get a hold of them for any updates. For some reason they also switched project managers on us 3 times due to "company structure changes". First it was Brandon, then Jason, then Brendan. This caused months of delay because no one knew what was going on with our project. Multiple times, I had to walk them through what still needed to get done. There was no handoff or communication internally. Each time a new project manager contacted us for the first time, they would promise to be in constant communication and move things forward. But, the project eventually was put on the back burner again. There have been many missed construction deadlines and tons of issues with them getting permits approved. They tore down two walls in my backyard for access that they have yet to rebuild because whatever they submitted in the permit caused the city to think it was a build to require extra engineering, soils reports, and OSHA permits as well. To this day they are still trying to figure out the permit. Not even the pool build itself needed extra clearances and reports. They say workers will be here on a certain date and then no one shows up. But honestly they don't have anyone scheduled to come at all and just say things to stall and buy time. When you call them out on anything, there is always some sort of excuse. This has literally caused 3 months of delays on their part. No weather issues, no permit issues, just them dropping the ball on scheduling. They also do not take pride in their work. They constantly leave the job site a mess until you ask them to clean up. The tile and grout finish was a rushed and left messy and has since started falling apart (see pictures). Managers do not care to pay attention to the details, despite claiming they build luxury pools. They do not send their in-house workers. They contract the job out to others. For example, I have included a photo of how "their plumbers" ran our new gas line to the pool equipment. It isn't even secured to the wall. There is no way they can be proud of this and put their name on it. I had to call them out on it to have it fixed and secured. Oh and guess who came to fix it? Plumbers in a Modul Pools truck. They best communicate when a payment is due. They will gladly send someone over to pick up the check same day, no problems. But getting someone out here to do work? To them, it can wait. They are also quick to get back to you when you tell them that you are going to fire them and take legal action or file a complaint with the Contractors State License Board. But they immediately go back to not caring about your project after they do a little bit of work to appease you. Look, I know it's a miracle anything gets built in Los Angeles, but it's a miracle OC Poolscapes have built a pool at all. There's a lot more I could go into detail about but hopefully this review has painted a good picture. But with everything said and done, DO NOT hire OC Poolscapes or Modul Pools. I am posting this review before our project is fully completed and final inspections passed. I will not be taking this down. I will be submitting a complaint to the CSLB and will likely pursue legal action as they have practically built us a Modul pool for twice the cost.

Our story, like many, is that we've gone through 5 pool companies in a matter of 6 years...and, not…read moreby choice. Service Runs are bought and sold...and people move, which we completely understand. In our case, often times the owner is not necessarily the "one" coming to your home...and, after the first month or two...someone "new" shows up...or doesn't show up...depending upon (I suppose) their work ethic. Finally, in February of 2023, after the "new hire" not showing and then coming by, looking around, and leaving...we had had enough! We leaned on "Leslie's Pools" for guidance and took over managing our "Spool" on our own! And, quite frankly...things were going well...until they weren't. Between the excess rain, heat and slope full of pollen behind us...our "numbers" were getting a bit out of whack...especially our TDS's. Another neighbor reached out on our community FB page "asking" for a pool technician recommendation...and, we opted to "follow"... just out of curiosity. Low and behold, Simon's name came up...and, not only did he come with wonderful reviews, he's a member of our community, too! (HOW we did not know this...is beyond me!) I decided to text him that very same day...and 2 hours later, he was assessing our pool! That was in May...it's now almost August...and we're beyond THRILLED with not only our water quality, balanced chemicals and POSITIVE reports from Leslie's...We're also EXTREMELY grateful to Simon himself! His knowledge of pool maintenance and "balancing" chemicals on a week to week basis is INCREDIBLE! He takes his time and checks EVERYTHING...and will explain what he finds and takes his time to speak with you directly! For the first time (EVER) we feel as if someone actually CARES about what is being done...and it shows with every visit he makes! I cannot say enough about Simon Suh and Tranquil Pool & Spa... BUT...I can say...if you're looking for an EXCEPTIONAL Pool Service Provider... you will NOT be disappointed after making a call and meeting with him!

We met Simon through neighborhood referrals after feeling lost with our new pool and wanting…read moreimproved quality.
