First, let me start this review by saying that if you're looking to build a pool and have never…read moredone this before you are in for a shocking experience. This will be a fun, exhausting, exciting, frustrating, angry and elation filled 5+ months ahead of you. Luckily, Cody Pools can help highlight the good and mitigate the bad. We moved to Dallas from NYC late last year and had ZERO experience with owning a pool. We interviewed 3 different pool builders locally and received bids that ranged wildly across the pricing spectrum. Cody's bid came in the middle and we felt it was very fair. I even price checked them with my friend who owns a pool building company in another state and he said he would charge me the same price for our design and he confirmed Cody Pools to be very reputable. The wife and I did get off to a rocky start with our designer but if you encounter the same issue, I certainly would not let that deter you from using Cody. Once the real work starts, it's only Project Managers and construction people you deal with. Our Project Manager was Shawn Barnacle and he was absolutely amazing. If he is on your project, you are lucky and I guarantee you will be pleased. He was always responsive and always on your side any time you had a question, concern, adjustment to be made, etc... We shared pots of coffee on many a morning as we discussed where we were in the process, what's left to complete and how much longer it will take. He's been in this business a looong time and seen it all. He is honest about every aspect of the project (even if you don't like what he tells you) and is absolute about you being happy with the finished product. Some things to be mindful of - Hidden costs: we ended up having to re-route electric wires and gas lines, both of which Cody does not perform and were additional expenses. This includes sprinkler system repair/re-routes after they complete the pool. Also, the yard gets COMPLETELY destroyed during this build process and needs to be re-sod/landscaped afterward which is another expense. Cody is happy to recommend contractors who can do all of this work and we found those recommendations to be solid. (Shawn will make sure no one takes advantage of you.) Timing: whatever time frame you have in mind, add another month....at least. This is a seriously invasive process and you should set your expectations accordingly before you even begin. From initial design to naked swimming, I would say it took 6 months. We did have sporadic weather delays contributing to this and under optimal circumstances, I believe they could start/finish the entire process within 4 months. Overall, we were very happy with Cody Pools and if you're crazy enough to chase that dream of swimming naked in your own backyard, I strongly recommend hiring Shawn, his beard, and Cody Pools to help make it come true.

We hired GP&A after speaking with several pool companies and chose them specifically based on their…read morereviews praising quick response times and communication. Unfortunately, that was not our experience. We did the "Green-to-Clean ($800)". It took SIX weeks. We had to repeatedly follow up because they would go ~2 weeks without showing up or communicating. When we asked, we were told there was an emergency situation, we tried to be understanding, but there was no proactive communication on their end. We decided weekly service ($250/month). After the initial clean, we signed up for weekly maintenance. Within 24-48 hours of each visit, chlorine levels would drop back to 0 ppm. GP&A's explanation was that our pool system was outdated and needed to be replaced. However, we had two separate pool inspections done when we purchased the home, plus 3-4 other pool companies assess the equipment, none of them flagged the system (installed in 2017) as a problem requiring replacement. Upsell attempts: GP&A quoted us a full system replacement (under $6,000) and then a filter replacement (~$2,200) before they said they could continue service. We decided to move on to another provider. End of service: We asked if they could continue maintaining the pool through the end of the month. Their last visit was six days before the final day of the month (image attached). The pool was visibly green and in poor condition by end of month (again they serviced it 6 days ago and it is this green; not adding enough chlorine). When we brought this up, they responded that the condition was "consistent with the unresolved filtration issue for which repairs were recommended", essentially placing responsibility on us for not purchasing their repair package. We were looking for a long-term, trustworthy pool service company. What we experienced was poor communication, inconsistent results, and recommendations that no other company has supported. I cannot recommend GP&A based on our experience.

The renovations are nice…read morealthough there are still some jets in the pools that don't work or the opposite, they blast out water to the point it almost drowns you! The indoor spaces are all really nice. I loved spending time going through all the sauna rooms & then taking a nap in the relaxation area upstairs when I got tired. The sushi place on the second floor was surprisingly good. FYI ramyun is the cheapest thing on the menu at the Korean place on the top floor & while it was good, it was clearly just instant ramyun that they charged $12 for. Next time I think I will just spring for something a little pricier. Couple of tips: It's both cheaper to go on weekdays & much less crowded. I would bring a change of clothes to wear under your robe. That way if you decide to go to the pool first, you can change out of your swimsuit to do saunas later. (Although plenty of folks just wear their swimsuit to the sauna!) Some folks say to bring a towel, but know they do provide full size towels & you can get fresh ones as needed in the locker room. If you plan to be there all day, I also recommend bringing a charger!

I NEVER expected a relaxing spa day to end with me crying in public and then crying again in my…read morecar. Today at Spa Castle, a woman was recording videos throughout the second floor. I realized I was being included in her recording and asked her to please stop because I did NOT consent to being filmed. Instead of simply respecting my request, she told me that I had an "attitude problem." She then went to the concierge and apparently received permission from a staff member to continue recording. She actually came BACK to where I was, started recording me again, told me, "I can keep recording," and called me "Karen." At that point, this no longer felt like someone casually taking a video at a spa. I felt deliberately targeted and humiliated. She also made a point of telling me that she gets "millions of views." I honestly don't care whether someone has 10 views or 10 million. Being popular on social media does not make another paying guest's discomfort irrelevant. What makes this experience especially disappointing is Spa Castle's response. I spoke with management and was told they could not make her delete the video. I understand that management may have limitations regarding someone's personal phone, but I cannot understand why a guest who had already been told directly that I did not want to be recorded was apparently allowed to return and continue filming and confronting me. I paid to come to a SPA--to relax and feel comfortable. Instead, I felt exposed, embarrassed, and completely unsupported. I was so overwhelmed by the entire interaction that I cried there, and then sat in my car afterward crying again. I can't remember the last time a business experience made me feel this humiliated. Spa Castle seriously needs a clear filming policy. There is a huge difference between taking a photo or video of yourself and deliberately continuing to record another guest after that person has specifically asked you to stop. People come to a spa expecting some level of comfort and relaxation. Nobody should have to wonder whether they're going to become unwilling content for somebody else's social media account. I'm incredibly disappointed with how this was handled.

Hired them because Bob does know his stuff, but it was all downhill after the original consult…read more Working with them has been an utter disaster and waste of some 55k. In a mere 6 months AFTER the pool renovation was completed, the pavers gapped, not once but twice. They came out and fixed them, even doing soil injections a second time only for the exact same problem to return. The concrete beam or whatever its called under the coping is cracking and falling apart in two places. I've got several seams of grout in the coping tile that has completely separated b/c their sub contractor did a horrible job with cuts and used grout in almost 1.5inch seams which is absurd. They keep saying they are going to come out, but weeks pass without a single person showing up. Its now been months and I'm exploring my legal options, even if it just means taking them to small claims court. These guys are a construction defect nightmare who use a bunch of cheap mexican labor that doesn't speak english. DO NOT HIRE THEM. Update: They still haven't fixed the horrendous grout work yet they've been telling me for months someone will come out to fix it. Look at the grout size....this is the quality of work everyone. You think this is acceptable? Then they send out some loser who barely speaks english and he does a hand cut on a tile so it looks jagged like a bottle cap. He puts a bunch of sand in without truly fixing the gaps and calls it a day in an hour. The owner of the company, Bob, emails me to say it's all fixed. This company is a blatant joke. I should sue them just to make their life hell since they have made mine hell. Blue Escapes is just one giant construction defect claim waiting to happen. The worst contractor experience I've ever had and I've done full remodels on several properties before. If you hire them, be ready to spend a lot of money for the worst possible workmanship you've seen. You've been warned. Update 2: They sent out another band of incompetent illegals that don't speak english to try and fix the deck, but the joke continues. None of the pavers are level. None of the separation gaps were fixed, and the underlying issues still not addressed. Their incompetence is exhausting. I have officially filed a complaint with the BBB. I will no longer allow them to "repair" anything. I've asked for a 10k refund so I can hire another company to fix the pavers, the coping, and the bond beam which is crumbling. I've also hired an attorney on retention and I'm ready to go to war at this point. This business should not be in business. Of all my years remodeling properties, I've never dealt with this level of stupidity, poor management, and pure incompetence. It would be funny if it wasn't my property. But here we are and I'm beyond livid to the point that I will pour money into the legal side to crush this company. That's how pissed off they have made me and I've given them several opportunities to make things right. They will be lucky to be in business after I'm done with them.

Our pool began to turn green, so we were told the filters needed to be cleaned. The company came and cleaned the filters, and charged us. One week later and the algae returned. Now we were told that we needed new filters. That should have been mentioned the week before during the cleaning, but that's fine. We bought new filters and installed them ourselves. The pool was still green for weeks until one day it wasn't. We didn't have issues for a while. Then, one day my wife noticed that the debris was in the same place in the pool the day that the company was supposed to come out. The next day, the pool turned green. We checked our backyard cameras and they never were there cleaning our pool, yet we were still charged for services. When we addressed this with the pool company, we were met with a hostile and argumentative response. Even though we showed them that our cameras never captured their employees on the date and time that they claimed to be there, the company refused to put the customer first. They said that the green in our pool was a result of our filtration system and not from our pool not being treated despite video evidence. Needless to say we would not recommend this company to anyone. We had issues from the start, but kept up good faith until we were shown that they would charge and argue for services not rendered.
