    We just had our pool remodeled by Pool Effects and it was a great experience! The bid, selection of materials, demo, installation and finishing touches were superbly done. I was very impressed with their flexibility in the planning process and their honesty about what we needed and didn't need. I also appreciated how cleanly and quietly they worked. They made us feel like we were their only customers. I would highly recommend Pool Effects! Thank you!

    I honestly can't say enough good things about Eddie and his crew. We just finished a massive overhaul of our backyard--basically a total pool and patio renovation--and the results are incredible. We had a lot of moving parts: a new pebble surface, fresh tile, and some much-needed brick coping repairs. On top of the standard pool fixes, they also installed beautiful new pavers, added deck jets, and built a killer waterfall that has completely changed the vibe of the yard. A few things that really stood out: * Speed & Efficiency: I've heard horror stories about pool projects dragging on for months, but Eddie and his team were super on top of everything. They stayed on schedule and got the work done in a really timely manner. * Attention to Detail: Even though they worked fast, they didn't cut corners. They were focused on the small details, making sure the stone work and tile lined up perfectly. * Communication: Eddie kept us in the loop the whole time, so there were never any "hidden" surprises. If you're looking to renovate your pool or deck, do yourself a favor and call these guys. My backyard feels like a resort now!

    Eddie and his team did an outstanding job on our pool remodel. They completed the project quickly and stayed within our budget. The crew was large, professional, and maintained a clean work environment. The pictures don't fully capture the transformation, especially since our yard is still a work in progress. Highly recommend!

    Pool Effects did a complete overhaul of my pool equipment. I could not be happier with the way everything turned out! I spec'd most of the equipment, Eddie made a couple of good suggestions to help right-size the installation for my pool size. The installation included removing my old equipment, pouring a concrete pad, and laying out a better footprint for the new equipment. All of the workers were on time and were expert in their various trades. They were all very polite and considerate. They worked quickly, asked me questions when needed, and otherwise minimized the effect of their presence.

    Recently hired Pool Effects to remodel my pool. Eddie was patient, timely and professional. His crew was clean and efficient. Pleased with the results and would recommend him to friends and family.

I was especially impressed with how they handled the Pebbletech selection. I knew I didn't want a rough finish, and I wanted some glass mixed in -- but not too much. They walked me through all the different options and helped me land on exactly the right combination. The result looks great and feels great underfoot. Highly recommend Victory Pools for anyone considering a resurface -- professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely attentive to what you actually want.

I didn't feel like there were hidden costs, but note there may be extra costs for you after they demo the pool, if you are also re-plastering. Caesar and Eddie were very responsive to email and text with any questions and concerns and made sure to come themselves to double check any issues. The team overall cleaned up after themselves and left the job site in good shape. The company is full service and brings the pool "full circle" and provides service to fill the pool, check filters, services the pump, etc after the pool is re-plastered. Work style: I imagine like many companies of this type there are teams of craftsmen that come through at different stages. I was able to get a clear schedule for the demo and the plaster phase, but the pool "startup" was a bit more variable (this mattered to me because we have dogs that have access to the yard, so if this applies to you I think you have to be very clear about hours of availability in advance). It seemed that a foreman would come and check in the team periodically. My only complaint through the whole process was that during the plaster day the crew installed a leaking hose that sprayed all over at the spigot at my stucco house and foundation for several hours, when I finally saw it, I had to draw attention to the crew to fix the situation. Due to how long the process with water takes, if it was not caught by myself it likely would have done some damage to the stucco wall. This was my only real issue over the entire job. Overall, communication was great, the finished product is beautiful, and pricing was fair and transparent. The pool came out looking fantastic.

If…read morehe is not able to take the call immediately, he has always returned my call within an hour. He is a very pleasant man and knows his stuff about everything pool related. Steve also made me aware of a $400 SoCalGas rebate for my new heater and made it super easy for me to send the form and photos to them. I am techno challenged, so that was very helpful. The service technician who has responded my house and performed the work has always been Brain. Brian has been in the biz for 28 years. He has also forgotten more about pools and equipment than I will ever know. Brian just replaced my old heater with a new one in about an hour. The new plumbing and electrical looks awesome. He also arranged for pickup of the 24 year old monstrous metal heater. Why mess with perfection. I'm sticking with OC Pool and Spa

    I initially had a very positive impression of Anthony. He was responsive and helpful, and I…read moreactually saved his number because I thought I had found someone I could rely on for future pool repairs. I was even considering switching our regular weekly pool maintenance service to his company. Unfortunately, my experience changed completely after the service visit was completed and paid for. We contacted Anthony because our pool heater was not working. Our regular pool technician had already determined that the blower had stopped working, so we purchased a new blower. We asked Anthony's company to install the replacement blower and get the heater working. Brian came out and installed the new blower. The blower now runs, but the heater still does not heat the water. Before leaving, Brian told us that the heater was working and suggested that there might be a blockage in the air-intake/exhaust system. He showed us the air-intake box and told us that when it was opened, the heater worked. We subsequently tested the heater extensively, including running it with the air-intake box open as instructed. We ran the system for approximately 30 hours, and there was no increase in the water temperature. The new blower runs, but the heater is clearly not heating the water. What disappointed me most was what happened afterward. I contacted Anthony repeatedly asking for help. I wasn't asking for anything unreasonable. I simply wanted Anthony or Brian to help us understand why the heater still wasn't working after the service call. I even offered to have them speak by phone while my regular pool technician was physically at the equipment so they could troubleshoot it together. Before the service was completed and paid for, Anthony was very responsive to my messages. Afterward, despite multiple attempts to contact him about the unresolved heater problem, I received no response. I had genuinely thought I had found a reliable company that I could use for future pool equipment repairs and possibly even our ongoing weekly pool maintenance. Unfortunately, the lack of follow-up after the service call completely changed my impression. The replacement blower is running, but the original reason we contacted them--the heater not working--remains unresolved, and I now have to hire another company to diagnose and repair it. I wish they had simply responded and helped us troubleshoot the unresolved problem.

They said they wouldn't charge me for the visit like they did me a solid..i just don't get it. All I asked was for transparency and not leave me in a position to call back the other pool companies and ask for a quote. I said, since you made a mistake and it's out of your service area, can you just finish the start up you promised me and I'll find another company to do the maintenance. They said no. After a pool is replastered, it's a crucial time to ensure everything is moving in the start up phase and they almost screwed me over. It's an expensive project to replaster and none of that was taken into account on their behalf. I'm very disappointed in how this company handled my service.
