    Finishing up pebble.

    Brady and his guys were in and out, starting on Tuesday with emptying the pool, and ending on Friday with filling it up. His guys were clean, (which I was very impressed with), and Brady was great at answering any questions or concerns we had. It was a very fast experience and the cost was fair compared to the other quotes we had received. Our pool looks amazing and we are so excited for this next summer in our new pool. Thank you Brady and team!

    They had tons of workers each day to get the job as quickly as possible.

    My husband and I purchased our house in 2018, we were told the drains were clogged by previous owners and that they had a plumber estimated 100$ to clear them. Well, we had three pumbers come out and said the drain pipes needed to be replaced which meant new concrete. It wasn't until the rainy season came and our backyard flooded so high it would come into the house (I'm talking 5 inches of water flooding) that we realized we needed something done. I looked for the highest reviewed companies to come out and give estimates. We proceeded forward with So Cal Pools who was able to begin the job a week afterwards. They estimated 2 weeks for complete new concrete, pipes and redo of the pool. We also got a love seat added in pool, decorative tile on seats, removal of a raised concrete area, stamped concrete which is more pleasing to the eye, new LED lighting, conduit for electrical in case we want to add a manufactured jacuzzi in the corner later. Everything went very smoothly and was completed on time. Previously it was Nathan who owned doing the pool work and Brady who owned the concrete work. NOW Brady owns everything (which is the best possible thing that could have happened for the company!) Brady is so honest, compassionate and constantly communicates during the process and even afterwards! There was never a single time he didn't reply to a text or call me back within an hour, no matter the time. I was pregnant during the work, and my husband was in Thailand, and there was a couple days that Brady brought food for his crew he got me some also (who does that?!?! Only the nicest of people). Our pool is beautiful now, our backyard doesn't flood most importantly and we're proud of our new backyard. Don't hesitate to reach out to Brady for an honest quote and beautiful work.

    5 star service and quality. The mini pebble aqua blue is nice with tiny shells and blue glass beads. They installed it to where its not rough like other pebble I've felt. It actually feels nice! There is a huge team of workers and they got my pool and spa done in about a week. I had a concern about the grout color for my tile. The workers and Brady listened and fixed it quick with no hesitation. All the workers are professional, clean and do excellent work. Brady is a cool and trustworthy guy and communicated with me daily to let me know the process. satisfied.

    If I had one word to describe SoCal Pools Plus, that word would be "AMAZING ". After receiving four estimates for replastering our pool we selected SoCal Pools to do the job. By doing so was the best decision we made. Brady, the company owner, and his office manager Mandy were so helpful and engaged with us during the whole process. Brady explained everything regarding our options, including the pros and cons, related to the latest materials used today. We selected pebbles , instead of the traditional plaster. With so many color options, it was hard to decide what color would work best for us. Brady and Mandy were very patient with us and assisted us in making our final selection. Brady's team came to the job site on time for three days and completed the work on our pool. The crew members were professional and friendly. Brady came to the site everyday. He took an active roll in making sure we were totally satisfied, and answered any additional questions we had during the project. If you want your pool to upgrades done correctly with care and detail SoCal Pools Plus Is the company to go with. The prices were very fair, compared to other competitors. However the most important thing is the customer service and the personal interaction with the entire team. To Brady & Mandy, keep up the great customer service and support. We also have found new friends in both of you forever.

    Brady, owner, is amazing! He was thorough, knowledgeable, and very personable. He came to give us a quote and emailed me his estimate right in front of me! Talk about efficient! We needed an old pool refinished. Brady didn't try to push any extras on us, try to up sell us on more expensive options or say that everything needed to be replaced. He was honest and up front about the cost and the time frame. Once you talk to Brady, you will quickly see why he and his company deserve 5 stars! His personality is infectious. Once we decided to go with So Cal Pool Plus, work began within a week. We had a hard time choosing tile and Brady was very patient and gave us some great suggestions. His office manager Mandy was also super sweet. I am the type of person who asks lots and lots and lots of quesrions and they were both eager to answer them all. Once we finally decided on the perfect tile, we found out it that it was out of stock thanks to Covid! Brady, to the rescue, somehow he managed to scrape together just enough for our pool. When work began, Brady came everyday to make sure work was progressing on schedule and done to his high standards. The crew worked quickly and efficiently, were very polite and professional. The only thing I can think of that wasn't perfect, was that one 1 day, the crew left a bit of a mess behind. But that was quickly remedied the next day and the entire area was meticulously cleaned. The pool came out exceptionally well! We chose dark blue tile and Tahoe Blue mini pebble with lots of extra glass pebble thrown in. We didn't have our own pool guy so for the start up chemicals Brady gave us a recommendation and he was also amazing. Even after everything was complete, Brady called to make sure everything was good and that we were happy. We are very very pleased with Brady and his company and highly recommend them to anyone thinking about refinishing or building their own pool! I would give him 10 stars if I could!

    Brady is amazing and went above and beyond for our backyard pool/paver/pergola project. The work is beautiful, and we get so many compliments from everyone who sees it. As a side note, we had a petty theft break-in on our garage... when the cops arrived, they kept talking about how great our pavers looked!

    The 5 star rating is well deserved for the entire team at SoCal Pools Plus. After a bad first impression with another company, I reached out to four other companies including SoCal Pools Plus. I decided to sign a contract with Brady based on his initial professionalism, honesty and positive attitude. He promised to treat my pool and concrete project like it was his own and he did not disappoint. He was personable, responsive, and treated my family and I like we were more than customers from start to finish. Mario was just as good and showed up on time everyday with the rest of the crew. I could fill up a page with all of the awesome things they did during my project, bottom line is I highly recommend this company! Great team, and amazing work.

    After getting visits and quotes from over half a dozen companies, my husband and I decided to go with SoCal Pools because: Nathan's quote came in 33% less than most of the others, he was knowledgeable about the work, he welcomed questions and the discussion of ideas, and he was personable and friendly. He is also a military veteran (USMC) and, to me, that implies certain admirable traits. In addition, with expensive projects like this, it's important to me that I "click" with my contractors; I'm a high maintenance client and I need to feel like I can trust and rely on them (without annoying them)... And Nathan didn't disappoint. My husband and I bought this house in March 2016. We knew we wanted to remodel the pool and when we found out we were expecting, there was suddenly a timeframe around "when." We needed everything done before our baby came. Nathan took the time to walk us through what to expect, helped us select materials and colors, and stayed in contact throughout the project, even doing some of the work himself. His team, including Mario, his project manager, were courteous, efficient, and friendly. The end result was better than I had imagined. Nathan even worked with our budget to get in something that I really wanted, but didn't *need* - a water feature. We are extremely pleased with SoCal Pools' work and cannot recommend them enough. With SoCal Pools, you aren't getting a polished salesman. You're getting someone who knows the job and will get it done right. Pros: *Personable and friendly *Knowledgeable and experienced *Hands on, does their own work (no sub-contracting) *Takes pride in the job and finished product *Flexible, adjusts to changing conditions and new requests *Available on weekends *Educated us on how to take care of our pool and equipment *Followed through on commitments (e.g. Came back 30 days later to check pool even though all payments were made) Cons: *Timeline got extended an extra week (mostly due to weather issues) *Late to a couple appointments *Communications occasionally delayed But, wait. If they weren't perfect, why five stars? Two reasons: 1) Throughout the project, Nathan would check on the progress and ensure that the work was up to his standards. A few times, he noticed things that he wanted tweaked - things that I, as a detailed micro-manager, hadn't even noticed. 2) Shortly after giving birth, while I was still in the hospital, something needed to be done with the pool. I don't remember what or why exactly (I don't remember much from those few days), but I remember Nathan texting me and saying not to worry, he'd take care of everything... And he did.

    Demo!

    Let me first start off by saying Nathan and his crews are the epitome of what a business should be. Nate, who is a military veteran, started this company after his marine corps service.... on his own and through many years acquired a good group of guys; assembling some great crews. Nate's a laid-back surfer looking kind a guy but don't let that fool. He is extremely knowledgeable, motivated, experienced and knows what he's doing. The surfer look does come in handy, allowing him an approachable exterior and very genuine way of forging relationships. His knowledge and ability to communicate the processes and steps involved really help in gaining perspective on the job and task at hand, allowing you to make a good informed decision. There are no strong sales tactics and his prices are more than reasonable (I strongly suggest you include him as one of your bids for your next pool project.) For my project the plaster in my pool had long since rotted and it was time to have my entire pool redone. Went with a Pebble-Tec resurfacing and could not be happier! Once I elected to go with his company on this.... They got to work. They drained my pool and sent in the demolition crew. These gentleman were extremely fast respectful and efficient. They were done in a matter of hours and left my backyard cleaner than they found it! The plaster crew came in the next day and the process was completed in the same professional manner. The crews were extremely nice and courteous and I could not of asked for more. They were a well oil machine and knew exactly what they were doing while taking the time to mask everything off and make sure they left everything they were not working on untouched and clean. These guys were phenomenal and over-the-top and I cannot say better things about them other than these are the guys you want on your pool regardless of the size. Nate checked in throughout the process answered all of my questions and went above and beyond what I had asked for and repairing my light bezel and skimmer surfacing issues. You can't get much better than this type of service. Just as a good restaurant bar or pub has a parking lot that is full and lots of patrons sometimes and lines to wait in.... At times Nate can get busy and not return my call immediately... However he always got back to me later same day. You don't want to bartender you can talk to you all night long because he has nobody else to serve.... just as you don't want to pull up to a restaurant and have nobody waiting in line. Excellence is popular and sought after.... Nate and his crews can get busy at times... but will make it a priority to take care of you at every turn. To use or a military expression in acknowledgment of excellence.... Bravo Zulu!!...... you and your crews and staff deserve it thank you!
