Purchased a Wellis hot tub and it was a nice investment . Shane, Jordan & staff very nice and acceptable of our phone calls regarding when delivery would happen . Delivery was excellent. We will get instruction when wiring is complete , it looks fantastic , we are so grateful & happy we put our trust in Orange county pools, I wish they would've put our purchase towards points but I guess we would've gotten too much product for free haha but you do earn points towards free pool supplies if you pay cash for your goods bought here , great variety of supplies read more

I would rather fill my pool with alligators than deal with Orange County Pools again. Here it is, their busiest season and the service department doesn't get in until 10:30. I had an appointment for Tuesday. Nobody came until Thursday. Nobody called to say they weren't coming. When they did come on Thursday, they didn't do the work for whatever reason. The service manager took no accountability. But he did take the opportunity to be arrogant, rude, and put the blame on me. They didn't do any work - yet I actually had to call to get my money back. The service manager is just not a pleasant man. I spoke to the owner at Orange County, but when they say they're going to get back to you and they don't, it's just patronizing behavior. I recommend Different Strokes if you need pool service. They got the work done without any complaints, and they were super awesome guys with a really nice owner. read more

LOVE this place! They take care of you as soon as you walk in. They actuality saved me alot of money not selling me a bunch of useless stuff to put in my pool like another pool store did last couple years. One of the guys there ,serious looking younger guy , schooled me big time on my pool and what I was doing wrong. He is straight and to the point . I'd take that any day over a super duper nice guy that just makes you spend lots of money.. Our new favorite pool store! read more

Orange county pools has gone straight to heck. I went in yesterday for a simple O-ring for a Hayward filter, whom they're dealers for, and after passing the responsibilities back and forth among a half a dozen teenagers for 15 minutes, they told me they didn't have it but could have it "next week" Never again. I then went to Royal pools and spas in Newburgh and while they didn't have one either, they took one off of one of their parts and sold it to me. Much more professional. read more

Hired Orange County pools and spas to build our pool before the pandemic. He was paid up front then the lockdown happened. Suspension on construction was lifted but he still dragged his feet for some time after. Fast forward to the pools completion and the contractor he hired for the patio stone work, Belle landscape construction,completely butchered the job. Pavers are sinking. Edge work is exposed and uneven. The pavers were never sealed so they have a dull look. Not to mention there is constant drainage issue where water is getting behind the pool and pushing up the shallow End of the pool liner. through all of that, The general contractor which is Orange County pools, has not taken responsibility for his subcontractor's sub-par work. Bare in mind we are in the 3rd summer without a permanent resolution to this problem. he scrapes the bottom of the barrel for his sub contractors. Do not use this company they dont stand by their work read more

This is truly one of the most unprofessional companies I have ever dealt with. Before committing i highly recommended you read the back of the contact it says it all. they do not stand behind their work. The subcontractor that installs is half assed at best. My semi in the ground pool collapsed from water damage due to no drainage within 8 months. Never show up on time. Full of excuses not solutions. Lynn Warren Landscaping had to come in and salvage the job read more

Never return phone calls and eventually ghost you. Just ridiculous behavior. I get pool companies are super busy these days and covid- blah blah blah...but get your act together. read more

I 'm trying to be civil, they wanted money upfront to check out the pool heater, when the two "Mechanics" came out, they said , oh we cant clean the burners because we are not licensed to do any gas fixtures, even though it was clear to Kathy that, that is what was needed first. Then they said oh, its got to be this part! okay, lets order it. Never did , kept calling and was told they would get back to me. They never did, such B S er's. If their claim of installing ten of thousands of pools is true, they had to install 200 pools a year, what a B S company. read more

Very unprofessional. We were set to have a liner installed, however they made a mistake with the measurements so they were unable to install the liner and would now need to get a custom liner. That was not the issue, everyone makes mistakes. I was very unhappy with the service departmeant. Apparently there is only one person who handles liners in their service department and there was no follow up on his end. I literally had to call and check in myself every step of the way. Their policy is full payment before the job is completed, which is ridiculous, but whatever, we followed their policy given their reputation. We were told that a manufacturer would be out to measure for a custom liner since they were unable to install the liner they measured for. They didn't show two days in a row, and NO call from the service department. I had to follow up to see what was going on both days. All that was needed was a courtesy call to say "hey I'm so sorry but the manufacturer can't make it today", but no call either day. The second day I called and left a message and so did my husband and they didn't even get back to us at all. I had to call again the next morning. When I asked to speak with Pat, the woman put me on hold and came back saying "the guy will be there today" and that was it. It was the most unprofessional experience I've had to deal with and am very surprised by the way they handle business. We decided to receive a refund due to their lack of professionalism. Also, we have spoke to numerous pool professionals after this and they all said that there is absolutely no need to get a custom liner. I definitely do not recommend. There are other pool and liner specialists in the area who handle business like professionals. read more

Addendum: I just received an apology and a check for $125 from the owner. While that doesn't undo my experience (see below), it does at least indicate to me that the owner cares and the company is making an effort at public relations. I hired this pool company to restore a pool that had been left uncovered for a year by the previous owner. First, they sent me an invoice trying to sell me a pump I didn't need because the pump in place was working fine and they had no explanation for why this happened when I asked for one. Throughout July and August, they came to clean the pool but at no point did they bring it up to working condition. The pool cleaner kept saying he couldn't see clearly enough to vacuum up the debris at the bottom. The cleaners didn't even empty the skimmers or the pool pump basket when they came to "clean." I finally asked one of the pool company reps if there was something they could add to the water to make it clear enough that the debris could be vacuumed, and she said to add a clarifier. The next day, the water was clear, but the idiot pool cleaner who came said he wasn't getting enough pressure to vacuum and erroneously claimed that he couldn't backwash because my backwash hose had split in two (it just needed a new fastening clip, which the next pool company I hired kept in their van, of course, but Orange Couty Pools doesn't). That pool company, Royal Pools, which I highly recommend, vacuumed the pool with no issues, emptied the skimmers and pool basket (which were filled to overflowing with muck), and had the pool up and running after one visit. They also provided me with an invoice detailing everything they had done after each visit, which OCP never did, probably because they did very little. I lost a whole summer of pool use because of Orange County Pools. In addition, a manager, David, had the gall to blame the problems with the pool on me ("This pool has been a problem from Day One," said the customer-service genius -- duh, that's why I hired YOU to fix it. Next time, if you can't handle a job, don't take it). The owner, Vinny Sr., apologized and said, "We don't run that kind of slop shop," and when I asked for a partial refund promised, "We'll take care of you." Never heard from him again. Guess what? You do run that kind of slop shop! Just abominable customer service across the board. read more

Brought my robotic vacuum in since they are an authorized repair shop. I will never do that again. Very possible it was the worst customer service I have ever had anywhere. One star is too many. read more

This summer I purchased an above ground pool from Orange County Pools and Spa. From start to finish it was an amazing experience.

Purchased a foreclosed home with a pool that's been sitting for 4-5 yrs without winterization. Called and spoke to Dave and Victoria who were very nice. However, they wanted $250 to come out and give me an estimate for repairs? My pool liner needs repair/replacement and my equipment is shattered so I definitely need someone to fix it. Unfortunately they won't be getting my business due to their upfront fees. Other local companies do not charge this fee. read more

Had a pool & spa installed by Orange County Pools this summer & couldn't of been happier with the experience. From the first day my wife & I went in for our consultation & met with David the process was seamless. The staff at Orange County Pools went above & beyond our expectations. Shane was especially detailed orientated & extremely knowledgeable. With his guidance we know feel really comfortable in working our new pool & spa. Looking forward to the spring when we can open the pool again. In the meantime we'll be enjoying the spa all winter long. read more

Horrible customer service. I'm not speaking about the actual work, because they nnever did anything. Trying to get service was one headache after another, First, during above ground pool opening I saw a crack in the PVC output of my propane heater. I called to schedule an appointment. They had me send pictures. The earliest appt was in 10 days! OK, I guess I'll weait 10 days - this is a busy season. On the day of the appt I was told I could be given no window narrwoer than 9-5 and someone would call me when they did their schedule in the morning. Well, by 2pm, no word. SO I called. Eventually, I got a call back from the tech who was about to come over, but just took the first look at my pics (after 10 DAYS) to say that is not fixable. I need a new heater. OK, not ure I 100% believe. I asked if he could install exact same model if I bought - he said he could do everything but electric. I said no prob, since electric is already running to an outlet by the heater. Heater order and appointment made. Again, 10 days. Heater has arrived and other than annoying me about signing an agreement an e-mailing it back before they would show up. OK, whatever. So I get a call earlier today that the guys are on site, but they aren't licensed to unhook gas of old heater or hook it back up to new heater. Thanks for taking 20 days to get to this point. HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. SIMPLY HORRIBLE. They've been pretty bad in the past, but this year takes the cake. I'm done with them. read more

LOOK elsewhere! Do not use them to install your pool. Constant lies. They will say anything to get your money up front and then delay delay delay to start any kind of work and then to FINISH it properly. I would NOT recommend them for any pool or spa work. read more

Had OC Pools close our pool last year and in the process they destroyed our filter. When they dropped off the filter after "cleaning it" we found several gauges and fittings damaged and/or missing. When we called to complain, we were told that "they did not damage anything and that we must have caused the damage." Never again will we use them for their services! read more

Do not use for pool repair. I emailed the company a pic of my heater with Serial Number (for which they had serviced for years). They sent a tech out and unfortunately I wasn't there. My fault because I trusted them. I didn't hear from them but saw a $400+ charge on my card. I tried heater and there were still error codes and wouldn't fire. I called and was told it was wet and needed to dry and if it still didn't work it needed a new board. I called another company after 3 sunny days and it wouldn't work. The company came and popped the panel off and said the valve was shut off on the inside. It fired right up and ran fine. I called Orange County back and the guy tried to convince me his pool guy fixed it but shut the valve back off. I said why would you keep telling me to try it after it dried up if the valve was off. He said I should've turned it on. It takes a special instrument to open the front of my panel and even if I had it, I'm not sticking my hands in the wiring to do it. Then he said only a gas company was supposed to do it. Then he yells at me not to call him a liar....SOOOOOO I'm calling him a liar. Nasty Customer Service. He said he was new.... Orange County....You need a new Manager. Never have I ever complained about the many times you have serviced my pool. read more

I bought my pool from OC Pools about 4 years ago. These people are always there for you. They always have the time, patience and inside scoop to make pool ownership a pleasure. We enjoy a great time in the summer in our sparkling clean pool thanks to the folks at OC Pools. read more

I have always used these guys for my chemicals each year last year was the first time that I used them to close the pool. Well spring finally came and I decided to open it myself, I reconnected the lines and turned on the pool. Nothing but leeks on all of my fittings that should not have been loosened, I went to see the owner and he said THIS TO ME ( YOU SHOULD HAVE HAD US OPEN YOUR POOL ). Clearly there only interested in the money not the customer which was supported by his next action he then charged me for new fittings it blows my mind. Now I have little to no suction and air getting into the line and I am loosing water a lot of water I told them about that and they wanted to send someone out to the house and charge me 135.00 an hr from the time they leave there shop until they get back. All just to tell me what I already know. There statement to me was people blame us for every thing, well I don't know about that but when I hire you to do something and it is followed by nothing but problems, it's probably your fault not mine. POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE.............. read more
