4 years later, I call Alex with questions and concerns and he still remembers me and answers like a family member would... Had an issue with my spa lights and he was able to take care of it under warranty as apparently it's been a common issue, and in a timely manner. Absolutely solidifies the exact reason why I chose these guys 5 years ago... customer freaking service Love these guys, and you will too! read more

The price is great (better than the other pool places we interviewed), although that comes at a cost for sure. They started out strong, but then they completely dragged out our build. There were weeks where we didn't see or hear from them. We were constantly having to contact them to see what was going on with our build. We seriously thought they were just going to leave a big dirty hole in our yard and never come back. After 7 months of us practically chasing them to come back, our pool was completed. Had we not chased them, I would think we would still be dealing with them. We had to point out several cosmetic things in the surrounding areas they worked on, but the pool itself turned out great. Would we recommend them, mmmm probably not unless you have the patience of a saint. read more

I did a lot of research before choosing Eric, Alex, Matt and pheonix pools to build my family's pool in wine country Temecula and to connect us with an excellent builder for a large pavilion with outdoor kitchen in 2022-23. I've had experience in this process as in 2016 I had a pool built for a home I used to own so I had a reference point and again I did a lot of research before hand. Pheonix did a wonderful high quality job on the pool and they were and continue to be highly responsive (especially Matt who has been awesome) and helpful. Cory did the rock grotto and he is truly an artist. I thought their pricing was fair and they didn't push anything that I didn't really need. They were straight up from the beginning . The quality of work was excellent. I would highly recommend them with reservation. Thanks, Jack read more

One of the BEST pool contractors I have ever worked with!! Not only did they finish on time, they did a fabulous job! Our backyard went from dirt to a beautiful pool in under 10 weeks (would have been 7 if we didn't put in a grotto and slide). Eric, the owner, was in constant contact with me throughout the entire process. He even gave me a courtesy call to let me know that he'd be on vacation for a few days, and who to contact if I had any question while he was out of town. Extremely professional and an absolute pleasure to work with. I know this isn't my forever home and he'll definitely be doing my next swimming pool. I'm in a new community and he has been referred to four other homeowners that we're putting pools in and they all feel the same way. Eric was extremely honest upfront about all the cost for everything I wanted, none of the pricing changed along the way (except for those few upgrades I decided to do throughout the process). And to top it off, months after the pool was done, I reached out with questions about working the equipment that I had forgotten and he came by and helped me out with no problem. 10 stars if I could!! read more

Just wanted to do a follow up because I have friends that are having issues after the pool build is done. (Not with pheonix) We still have communication with our pool builder, I see that's a lot of the issues is once it's done you never hear from them again. Not the case here! I've recommended them to all of our friends! read more

These guys built us a nice pool, and they are easy to get a hold of.. but Alex does not take criticism well and has 100 excuses for everything.. Above all DO NOT HAVE THEM DO YOUR CEMENT! The contractors they used completely ruined our cement and coping. No sloping for runoff and no drainage leaves us with pools of water from sprinklers and rain. Resulting in an awful looking patchy surface, When we asked about it Alex got super defensive and in a condescending tone assured us this "happens to all cement", and "will clear up after a couple of months".. it's only gotten worse. We had a different company put in a cement patio right after the pool and it looks beautiful, plenty of drains and sloping for water runoff. We try to not let it bother us, but after spending $80k it's a real bummer and we expected much much better. read more

Phoenix pools are a top notch pool company. The owners care about you and don't send a salesman to your home they come out personally to talk about your needs. When Eric gives you a time frame it happens. We are very pleased with our pool. We couldn't ask for better quality and customer service. read more

We had Phoenix Pools and Spas put our pool in last summer (2018). We contacted and spoke to a few pool companies and ending up getting 2 quotes. One from a large national company and one from Eric of Phoenix Pools. We decided to go with Eric's company for a few reasons. Those reasons: he is local and has been building pools in our area for long time, he is friendly and easy to talk to, answered all our questions, was prompt for appointments, and his quote was lower (not a huge factor but helps). Eric estimated completion in 6-8 weeks. It took a very quick 8 weeks. I don't see how it could go any quicker, there was only a few days where nothing was being done (usually waiting for an inspection). After going through the process I now know that we made the best choice in choosing Phoenix Pools. The greatest value Eric brings is experience. He knows the best sub-contractors! All of the various sub-contractors were great! They were always on time, friendly and professional. They were all experts in their various fields. What Eric does not have is the slick modern sales office with large screen presentations and deluxe brochures. Those things you probably pay for (and probably the reason his quote was very reasonable). Instead you get a friendly, no pressure, person come to your home, show you pics of past projects, asks what you want, and works with you the whole way through -start to finish. I don't want to paint a picture of a company stuck in old methodologies. Eric did present us with 3D pics of what our pool will look like and the pool equipment we got is the latest with remote control using our phones (a little extra cost), low power consumption LED lighting, and a super efficient and quiet variable speed pump. We definitely recommend Phoenix Pools and Spas! read more

We had our pool started the end of April 2018 and it was completed by the last day of school in June. Our project was completed on time and on budget, no surprises. The upgrade options were so reasonable, we ended up going with a pebble finish, blue granite. One concern we had was what a pool/spa would do to our utilities, but with the efficient equipment, it really hardly made a difference in our bills. Eric has always been quick to respond to questions, even now that the pool is complete. I work from home and the crews were always professional and flexible with our schedule. Our pool build was a great experience! It's been nearly a year and we have loved every moment in our backyard. The whole family spends so much more time outside now, even when not swimming. We would absolute choose Phoenix Pools again! read more

We would highly recommend Phoenix pools! From the first visit to the design, permitting and completion of our pool, Eric listened to what we said and came up with a beautiful pool! He was always available when we had questions. His team does an amazing job! The demo and construction teams were very respectful and very considerate. We love our pool and have Eric and his team to thank for it! read more

We LOVE our new pool! The entire experience working with Eric & everyone from Phoenix Pools has been so amazing. Eric is so honest and reliable from the estimate to the finish of our pool, which was completed ahead of schedule! Eric was always easy to reach, always showed up on time and so did ALL his crews. Everyone was nice, professional, left our yard clean & did phenomenal work from the demo, masonry, concrete, tile & custom slide. We highly recommend Phoenix Pools and would use them again!! read more

Phoenix pools delivered an awesome pool on-time and on budget. Eric and Alex are great at attention to detail. The crew was very professional and courteous. I got a few estimates i was very surprised Eric was able to stay within my budget and i relieved a few more things than the other company offered at no additional cost. I would highly recommend this this pool builder to all my friends and Clients. Thank you Eric and Alex read more

I am hesitant to leave a review for Phoenix Pools and Spas as no one enjoys having to give a poor review for anyone. I would love to be able to leave a glowing review like many of the other reviews here but unfortunately our experience was nothing like the others who have posted before me. We contracted with Phoenix Pools in October of 2018 and we spent a year with them on our project before issuing them a 5 day notice to cure. So to paraphrase our job in a nutshell, we experienced: a pool project that was routinely under manned and under supervised; numerous instances of poor workmanship and short cuts by Phoenix Pools and the subcontractors they hired; a lack of reasonable diligence in the execution of our project, and subcontractors who were not being paid which severely impacted the progress and quality of our project. Some of the subcontractors used on our job appeared to be unlicensed/uninsured and Phoenix refused to provide evidence to the contrary. And, unfortunately at the end of this process we as homeowners are left to deal with tile falling off our pool and jacuzzi, dead trees and plants, and a zero edge pool that overflows to the point of touching our house when we have people swimming... among other things. If you plan to hire Phoenix Pools and Spas my recommendation is that you get a schedule up front, request a list of all subcontractors and verify their license, insurance, and qualifications. If you are doing a zero or vanishing edge pool, make sure you get calculations up front and have them verified by a non biased third party. If you choose a glass tile print out the manufacturer installation guide and make sure that the installer is installing per guidelines. Perhaps my job was an outlier but I wanted to let others know about our experience so that they can make an informed decision when considering whether or not to contract with Phoenix Pools and Spas. read more

This company is absolutely amazing!!! Our pool was actually started and finished on time and it is beautiful! The running joke in our neighborhood is that it is taking our friends longer to have simple repairs done on their homes than it took us to have a brand new pool and spa installed . Workers were at the house every day, Alex (owner) showed up each day and kept the crew on point. He consistently pointed out small items that he wanted them to redo so the finished pool would look awesome. We have already recommended 2 other families to Phoenix and they are moving forward with them. Their pricing was in the middle tier of the quotes we received, but they responded promptly and worked out all the design details with us before the job began. This may sound small, but we could not get any other company to engage with us on this level. We recommend these guys 100%! read more

I can say unequivocally that Eric with Phoenix pools is fantastic. His company and personnel did a great job and he was very responsive and patient. I would give him my highest recommendation. If you need a pool or pool remodel you should definitely be calling Eric. Kevin Fetterman read more

I am not one to do a whole lot of reviews but was completely satisfied and impressed with the job done by Eric and his team. From the beginning of the project, the communication was outstanding and even with rain and the challenges of COVID, this job was on team and very well done. We called a few companies out but as soon as Phoenix pools came out, my wife and I knew this was the right fit. There was never any pressure to add more to the project and the pricing was very good. This is the second time we have built a pool when we moved into a new house and I only wish we would have used Phoenix pools the first time as well. A huge shout out to Eric and his team from a very happy customer. read more

We chose to go with Phoenix pools in temecula after getting several pool quotes. Their pricing was very competitive and the design was exactly what we were looking for. We are so happy with our choice!! The pool and spa came out better than we had hoped and it was all done in just 4 weeks! Crazy! Every trade they used was great, on time, cleaned up and respectful. I would highly recommend speaking with Eric before you start and pool, he really knows his stuff. read more

Phoenix Pools and Spas - Phoenix pools did an amazing job on our pool! We all love it and use it daily. Highly recommend them, it was done in 4 weeks! - Pool & Hot Tub Service Near Me - Temecula, California

I can't say enough about Pheonix Pools and their entire team. I got 5 estimates and when Eric (my second) came out I was pretty sure I would be going with them. I continued on with the other estimates but there was something down to earth about Eric and there was no big sales pitch. I could tell he knew what he was doing. Little did I know that it would be Alex running the project and was awesome. He communicated all the time and was so kind, communicative and sincere. He helped me make decisions by giving me unbiased information and if I asked what he would suggest, he was always honest. I guess to keep this from being a novel I will say that the whole project was smooth, straightforward and without any major hiccups . I heard so many horror stories about the delays and how the crews would leave a big mess etc. I didn't experience any of this. Everyone that came to work on the project never left a mess. My neighbors were so impressed with how tidy my front and side yard was left and not demolished as they have seen with others. The project was on time and no added expenses. It was exactly as was in the contract with only added perks! I would highly recommend this company. Look no further! True professionals. Know their craft and do it well! read more

Great experience! I had a pool done and had this vision of a natural stone pool they exceeded it. Better then I imagined all natural stone and rock beautiful waterfall. They finished on time. The crew works hard always showed up everyone worked on schedule. I did my research for awhile on who to chose glad I went with Phoenix pools great quality and I didn't spend more then my budget. Highly recommend them. read more

Eric was a great choice for our pool. He stayed with in my budget and was flexible where I requested changes. We were told it would take approximately 8 weeks and we finished right around that time even with rain delays. We are extremely happy with the end result and enjoy our backyard sanctuary every day. read more

Eric was recommended to us by 3 different family members who all had pools installed by him and were happy with the result. He had competitive pricing and a pretty aggressive timeline to get things done....which he completely stuck to. He is professional and so were the subcontractors he sent. They put in long days of work and rarely was there a day someone was not out back working. We are very pleased with our pool/spa/deck and would recommend Phoenix Pools 100%. read more

Phoenix Pools met our expectations in so many ways. Price, quality, time and effort all hit the high marks, as well as Eric's personal attention to detail. Despite the demanding construction schedule given to the Phoenix Team, they met every timeline along the way to a beautiful finished product. We were especially impressed with their knowledgeable recommendations, quality of workmanship and friendly customer-orientated attitude. Throughout the building phase we were provided timely, accurate assessments with detailed explanations to any question we posed to the builder or his on-site staff. No less remarkable is their responsiveness to questions after the sale. If you're looking for professionalism, excellence and making dreams become reality... you'll find it with Phoenix Pools. read more

We had our pool put in late last year. Eric and the team did a terrific job. They are definitely on top of things and the cost was comparable to others as we got 3 quotes. I would definitely recommend them for their professionalism, honesty and workmanship. 5 stars here! Thank you for a great pool and spa! read more

The pool turned put nice but the experience was rough. Never on time with workers showing up, hard to get on the phone, no show was normal, communication was poor, no training, no salt ever put in pool, items took months to get fixed after pool was complete. Two months after the pool was finished no salt or chemicals were added. They take no responsibility and no apologies. I would use someone else read more

We worked with Eric, Phoenix Pools and all of his guys about a year ago to remodel our backyard/pool. In the process we also built a front patio and updated our side yard. We took about two years to figure out exactly what we wanted to redo before moving forward with the project and Eric was the only person who was responsive and continued to work along side us (even before contracts were signed). He and his crew are amazing, patient and honest. Even a year later when we have had small glitches with figuring out the pump, Eric continues to stop by, call and assist us with our questions. Thank you Eric and Phoenix Pools for making such a large project so enjoyable......we absolutely LOVE our new living space. read more

I typically do not write reviews, even though I use them all the time, but I am compelled to write this one. Back in 2015, we remodeled our backyard including our then 19 year old pool. We gave Eric an idea that we wanted to turn it into a vacation lagoon. A Margaritaville to come home to every day. He sketched out a concept and captured it perfectly. Then the work began. His crew was on-site early and stayed late everyday. Outside of weather delays, he came in on budget and on time. All of his people were respectful, hardworking and cool. How many times do you get to say you had a great experience with a contractor of any kind. Phoenix Pools was that experience. So much so that last year we brought them back to do a remodel on our rental property. Another fantastic experience. There is no greater testimony you give than to invite someone back for another engagement. read more

I received an estimate from Phoenix Pool earlier this year. What caught my attention was the honesty and the professional attitude with which the estimate was presented. I told Eric about the promises another contractor had made and he said they were just not doable. It turns out he was one hundred percent right. We decided to go with a different contractor and we regret it very much. While I can not speak for their work, I can speak for their honesty, affordability, and professionalism. I hope that in writing this review you will appreciate what Phoenix Pools brings to the table. It's very important that the person that sells and designs the pool is the same that's out in the field. read more

Single best contractor we have ever hired. We are still loving our pool after seven years. The entire process was great and Alex was always very excited about getting us a great pool in our budget. I am writing this review now because I still reach out from time to time with question about pool stuff an Alex still treats me as though I am a active customer. Really these guys are the best...honest, quality, on budget and friendly. read more

We would absolutely recommend Phoenix Pools for anyone considering a pool. We unfortunately had a bad experience with a different pool contractor that left the job half way through the project. After many companies coming out and evaluating the scope of work, they either way over bid it or simply said that they were not interested. Eric was very empathetic and truly wanted to help us finish our project. He was very professional and made every detail of the project his responsibility. He gave us a turn key pool that turned out amazing. I wish we found Phoenix Pools at the very beginning of our project. Feel free to have Eric give you my number as a professional reference. Thank you Eric at Phoenix Pools for proving that there are still quality pool contractors in the trade, keep up the good work! read more

Best experience we ever had! Eric was great to work with and our pool was done in a timely manor :)

If you are looking for a pool contractor, I would recommend Phoenix. They deliver value and are focused on customer satisfaction. We have had our pool/spa/hardscape for just over a year and it has brought maximum joy with minimum maintenance. Kevin did a great job in listening to what we wanted and delivered on time and on budget. He has a great group of talented professionals who deliver from breaking ground through start up and beyond, including concrete, lighting, drainage, and fencing. Kevin's 40+ years in the business is a great plus especially if you are looking for thoughts/ideas as to what will work best for your home and pool use. Phoenix responds timely to questions both during and after the build; which is especially nice for first time pool owners. In addition, they have great relationships with their manufacture reps, which is a great help and time saver with warranty items, if any. read more
