    Cody Pools

    First, let me start this review by saying that if you're looking to build a pool and have never…read moredone this before you are in for a shocking experience. This will be a fun, exhausting, exciting, frustrating, angry and elation filled 5+ months ahead of you. Luckily, Cody Pools can help highlight the good and mitigate the bad. We moved to Dallas from NYC late last year and had ZERO experience with owning a pool. We interviewed 3 different pool builders locally and received bids that ranged wildly across the pricing spectrum. Cody's bid came in the middle and we felt it was very fair. I even price checked them with my friend who owns a pool building company in another state and he said he would charge me the same price for our design and he confirmed Cody Pools to be very reputable. The wife and I did get off to a rocky start with our designer but if you encounter the same issue, I certainly would not let that deter you from using Cody. Once the real work starts, it's only Project Managers and construction people you deal with. Our Project Manager was Shawn Barnacle and he was absolutely amazing. If he is on your project, you are lucky and I guarantee you will be pleased. He was always responsive and always on your side any time you had a question, concern, adjustment to be made, etc... We shared pots of coffee on many a morning as we discussed where we were in the process, what's left to complete and how much longer it will take. He's been in this business a looong time and seen it all. He is honest about every aspect of the project (even if you don't like what he tells you) and is absolute about you being happy with the finished product. Some things to be mindful of - Hidden costs: we ended up having to re-route electric wires and gas lines, both of which Cody does not perform and were additional expenses. This includes sprinkler system repair/re-routes after they complete the pool. Also, the yard gets COMPLETELY destroyed during this build process and needs to be re-sod/landscaped afterward which is another expense. Cody is happy to recommend contractors who can do all of this work and we found those recommendations to be solid. (Shawn will make sure no one takes advantage of you.) Timing: whatever time frame you have in mind, add another month....at least. This is a seriously invasive process and you should set your expectations accordingly before you even begin. From initial design to naked swimming, I would say it took 6 months. We did have sporadic weather delays contributing to this and under optimal circumstances, I believe they could start/finish the entire process within 4 months. Overall, we were very happy with Cody Pools and if you're crazy enough to chase that dream of swimming naked in your own backyard, I strongly recommend hiring Shawn, his beard, and Cody Pools to help make it come true.

    We hired GP&A after speaking with several pool companies and chose them specifically based on their…read morereviews praising quick response times and communication. Unfortunately, that was not our experience. We did the "Green-to-Clean ($800)". It took SIX weeks. We had to repeatedly follow up because they would go ~2 weeks without showing up or communicating. When we asked, we were told there was an emergency situation, we tried to be understanding, but there was no proactive communication on their end. We decided weekly service ($250/month). After the initial clean, we signed up for weekly maintenance. Within 24-48 hours of each visit, chlorine levels would drop back to 0 ppm. GP&A's explanation was that our pool system was outdated and needed to be replaced. However, we had two separate pool inspections done when we purchased the home, plus 3-4 other pool companies assess the equipment, none of them flagged the system (installed in 2017) as a problem requiring replacement. Upsell attempts: GP&A quoted us a full system replacement (under $6,000) and then a filter replacement (~$2,200) before they said they could continue service. We decided to move on to another provider. End of service: We asked if they could continue maintaining the pool through the end of the month. Their last visit was six days before the final day of the month (image attached). The pool was visibly green and in poor condition by end of month (again they serviced it 6 days ago and it is this green; not adding enough chlorine). When we brought this up, they responded that the condition was "consistent with the unresolved filtration issue for which repairs were recommended", essentially placing responsibility on us for not purchasing their repair package. We were looking for a long-term, trustworthy pool service company. What we experienced was poor communication, inconsistent results, and recommendations that no other company has supported. I cannot recommend GP&A based on our experience.

    I needed pool service pretty immediately after the rains in November and Japi was among the first…read moreto call me back and provide a time for me. He is very thorough, and knows his pools. He is responsive and even answers all of my dumb questions (I am a first-time pool owner). Prices are in line with the industry average, but he truly cares about the pool and does a good job every week! The proof is the report that he sends with each service with pics!
