The bad: My decking, retaining wall and coping began to bow and crack almost immediately. Pieces of it fall into the pool daily. It looks terrible. It's embarrassing and I am going to have to get it fixed to be functional. The ugly: Nathan, the owner, and Taylor, the CEO, both said they would resolve this and fix it. They stalled and stalled and claimed they were turning it over to their insurance to handle it, and no one ever did. Now I have turned it over to an attorney.

Nathan also identified a few other issues I wasn't aware of and addressed them as well while he was on site. He took the time to answer the many questions I had.

First, let me cut to the chase, I highly recommend Capital Custom Pools and Shane, the General…read moreManager! This is my first pool, so I came into this pretty uneducated and Shane was very patient with me during the entire project, explaining the process and what to expect. He is an extremely experienced pool builder and beyond professional and responsive. He makes you feel like you're the only customer he has and follows through even after the pool build is finished. If you want a high-quality gorgeous pool, you must hire this company. Builder Selection Shane and his staff were extremely patient as I tried to align the very differing proposals, breaking costs down as I requested. His proposal was easy to understand and was straightforward, not hiding costs in various categories as most of the other builders did. I felt I got a very fair estimate. While their proposal was not the lowest, I chose them because I felt very comfortable with Shane, his knowledge and he's just an overall really nice guy. Another reason I chose them was because he was the only builder to submit the design to our HOA without my even asking! He kept me informed as the process with them progressed. Design I already had a pool design done by another builder but wanted to get estimates from other builders. I called five and Shane was the first to to respond. We met that week and I was very impressed by his professionalism. He looked at our design, asked really good questions about the pool and how we thought we would use it. He also made some suggestions that had to do with the actual usability of the pool. He took the paper based plans and some screen shots and recreated the design using his own pool design software. We had several design meetings either at his office or at my home. He patiently tweaked the details as well as the bigger things until we were satisfied with the design and the materials. Build Shane managed this project like clockwork and the only time the progress slowed down was due to weather. He kept me informed of who was coming when and what was expected to be accomplished in that given time. His contractors were very skilled, polite and was respectful of our property. The project wasn't trouble free by any means but at each step, Shane oversaw the work being done, making changes either at my request or because he wasn't satisfied. None of which were charged to us. Shane and his staff were so responsive to all of my questions, concerns and me calling him and telling him that one of the pool walls wasn't being done to design, he stopped the work and redid it to design. There's so much more to write but that would make this review too long to want to read. Our pool is amazing and we're extremely happy with the result. Also I didn't feel that once the pool was finished Shane would disappear. In fact, he's still very responsive when we have a question or trouble with the equipment. I would highly recommend Capital! Shane and his staff are honest, knowledgeable, demand high quality from the contractors and I can't say enough about their responsiveness.

I remembered I had picked up a couple cards at the Pool Warehouse when I asked them for recommendations. I called Alan and another guy. Alan had better pricing and was able to come out that day and get started. He is very reliable and my pool had been sparkling since he has been on the job. Too bad it's also been too cold to swim. I hope this is useful to someone. I actually started a thread on yelp looking for recommendations and got nothing. I recommend Alan to anyone looking for reliable affordable pool service.
