Brett is a decent guy. But it's the employees that make or break a business. Brett had a guy cleaning my pool and he was pretty good. After a few months passed he was cleaning the pump basket and forgot to turn the valve to allow water back in. I came home to a pump that had running dry for 8 hours. The guy bought a new pump and installed it but in the process he over tightened the nut and cracked it. At that point it wasn't leaking so Brett and I decided to let it slide. But of course it later started leaking and I had to deal with it on my own. Then there came a new guy. I asked for the first guy back because the new guy wasn't cutting it. So Brett had them team up and told me that the new guy wouldn't be coming alone until he was trained. Two weeks later I saw on my security system that the new guy was alone. And noticed he still wasn't cutting it. I told Brett I wasn't happy and he assigned someone new. This newer guy could be seen on our cameras going in to areas of the yard he had no business going to. I watched and didn't mention the cameras. Just trying to make sure he was doing the job I hired him to do and it was obvious he didn't see the cameras. Some weeks I would send a message after he left and ask if he vacuumed the pool that week. More than once he replied that he had done it the week prior so he would do it again the following week. Of course I would look back at the video from the prior week and see he didn't vacuum then either. When I hired Brett I specifically asked to do my own filter cleaning. As I told him, the main reason was because I didn't want DE from the filters in my back yard. One day I saw them enter my yard. I thought they were just cleaning the pool off schedule. But then I got a bill from Brett. When I asked what the bill was for he said they cleaned my filter. In the end he admitted his fault and didn't charge me for the service I previously asked them not to provide. But I did end up with a bunch of DE in my yard that I was trying to avoid. In the end, Brett is decent but my experience with his company as a whole was unpleasant. I think it could be helpful for anyone considering the company's services. read more

Bret is a fantastic person. He has been instrumental in helping me maintain a clean pool. Love them!

Brett is amazing! He answers his phone when you call which may seem like a quality that should be implied since he's an independent, small business owner, but as we all know that doesn't always happen. He is charming, kind and ready to work hard on getting pools clean. Thanks Brett! read more

This company feels like family to me. Fair prices, wonderful service, great communication,... you really can't ask for more. They didn't judge me going through the hardest years of my life. Multiple deaths in the family and a messy divorce, I had issues with finances a time or 2 and just was not my best self. My yard was a mess sometimes, my kids threw crap in the pool, but they always worked with me. Through it all they treated me with dignity, respect, and care. Truly amazing humans work here and run/own this company. read more

Thank you so much! Our pool was filled with Dirt and other pool services were quoting thousands to clean it, Murdock gave us a $500 solution and cane out the day before Christmas Eve and pumped our pool so we could fill it and be back enjoying it in no time. Honest service. You don't find that very often! read more

Great and prompt service. He came out to empty my pool and it was done in 5 hours. He loved my solar powered duck.

These guys are absolutely amazing! Not only do they leave your pools squeaky clean but they also are very friendly & personable. I haven't had any complaints since working with them. Murdock Pool Service is hands down the best in town. :) read more

Oh my gosh. This guy is amazing. My 3 yr old had diarrhea in our hot tub right before a big party. I panicked and Murdock pool service was the only one who would come. Who knew, there was a dead hamster in my filter. Not only did he get it cleaned up lickity split, but he got my chemicals dialed in. Thanks Murdock pool service. You are my pool/hot tub guardian angel read more

I called for help with cleaning my spa, as I needed an unexpected maintenance. They were very quick to answer my call, and help me. I was very impressed with Brett, whom I worked with. He was able to schedule me right away. I really liked his expertise in this area, and learned a lot about maintaining, and handling a high use spa (used in our vacation home). I would highly recommend their pool service, and will call them again. Thank you, and much appreciation! Laura read more

Not going to use Murdock because location isn't optimal, but Brett was very helpful and honest never the less. Showed up on time and gave his honest opinion on what I should do moving forward. He referred me to some other options and even taught me a few things about how to save some money. read more

As first time pool owners in a new-to-us house we had a huge learning curve. Had a few misunderstandings at first but the owner was awesome and worked to make everything right, plus our pool stayed immaculate and clean all the time!!! As we understand it, this company brought our pool back from the dead before we moved in (green algae pool anyone?) and today you'd never know it. You can count on these guys! read more

I'm writing this review just based on Brett's honesty and refreshingly open advice when I reached out for advice and a bid on replacing our fixed rate pool pump with a variable speed pump. He gave me all the pros and cons about the DIY route and the professional route with very fair pricing and avoided the "industry speak" and games which I really, really appreciate. Wish all pool companies and owners were as honest and forthcoming as Brett. Thanks for taking time out yesterday to chat. Will definitely keep Murdock Pool Services in mind for any future pool needs! read more

Brett has treated me with kindness and respect every time I call. I find the whole team to be honest and good at what they do. I don't think you need to look anymore for a pool service. Just call them. :) read more

Brett is such a great guy. Not only is he knowledgeable on the job but he is also honest and reliable. Last year my pool had slowly been turning into a swamp. With summer approaching, I was worried about getting our pool back to normal (especially living in San Diego) Brett diagnosed the issue as the pool pump going out. Within 48 hours he had installed a new pump!! Not to mention, he has such reasonable and affordable rates. I was so thankful for the hard work he displayed and time he dedicated to fixing my problem. Thank you Brett !! read more

My wife and I bought a new home in April and were super excited about inheriting a sweet pool in the backyard! Fast forward a few weeks after un-packing and getting settled, I realized I had no idea how to care for things and needed someone to come out and show me the ropes. Our realtor recommended Brett, and I gave him a call. Brett came out, spent well over an hour and a half teaching me "Pool 101", showed me how to clean my filter, showed me a filter basket I didn't even know existed (oops), and was as friendly as he was thorough. After his visit, I felt much more at ease with our equipment and confident that I can maintain things. I plan on using Brett as my go-to pool resource and I highly recommend you do the same. read more

Stop looking all over Yelp, you just found your pool guy. I bought a house with a DE pool filter. I've had pools in the past but never had a DE set up. I called 3 services and left messages asking if they offered a "101" service to walk me through what I was going to be doing in terms of maintenance. Brett is the only one that actually called me back. Not only did he call me back he spent about 20 minutes on the phone with me answering questions. Brett offered to come out and show me everything I would need to do to keep the pool looking good. He came out the next night, spent over an hour showing me what all the setting should be, how to clean the DE filter, made sure the vacuum was working properly and generally made me feel more confident about maintaining the pool. The guy is honest, reliable, affordable and really cares about providing the best possible customer service. read more
