Moved to Visalia in July it was hot! Into a new housing tract, we needed to make up our mind about backyard landscaping. It was hot, dry & just dirt. We decided to get some pool quotes. Called a few, some were so busy they couldn't come out for a quote. Now to anyone new to this, in Visalia, local pool companies are supportive of each other, they don't verbally bash each other, which is so nice. Each pool company uses a few contracted companies, so who ever you choose they do good work. We received a few quotes based on design, size, & here's our huge make or break deal CUSTOMER SERVICE. Donovan @Living Water Pools listened to us, the customer. What were our needs, wants & then sat down to the drawing board. A lot of pools have the similar design but it's the customers who can customize it to their families needs. I wanted a rock water slide, my budget said, 'dream on' $10,000-$15,000, no thanks. My resort lazy river was not budget friendly either, lol. I didn't want 3-5 waterfalls at $500 per feature, I also didn't want someone telling us we should have a retaining wall $3000-$3500 when we knew we didn't need one. There are other ways to 'retain' without a wall. We knew our family would never use a jacuzzi, so that also saved us $$$. Donovan listened & created our dream pool, didn't try to tell us what we wanted or needed. Living Water pools deep ends are 7 feet, others were 6.5 feet, hello I'm a 6 foot tall girl, that extra 1/2 foot matters. If you want 8 feet, there's a fee. He will tell you upfront & honestly what different pros/cons are: salt water vs chlorinated, heater or not. Kristy has kept us informed of all appointments. They sincerely work like a well oiled machine. Kelby & Brandon have the best customer service. They have been detail oriented getting our yard back to the way it was before construction. I'm posting pictures as we're in progress.
Update 10/20: We are right on schedule. David, Donovan, Devin & Kristy handle construction like true professionals. We love our tile & stonework. David was helpful & guided us, showing us the colors that compliment each other. Construction is dirty, dusty & can have hiccups. Living Water Pools & workers are awesome. We are scheduled for plaster this Friday 10/23.
Update 10/24: We are plastered!!! We are filled. Pool looks amazing. Getting finished with clean up. Pictures updated. Very happy with everything. read more
