From day one, he has treated our pool with the same care and pride as if it were his own, and we are beyond thankful for his service. Every single week, he sends a detailed email outlining exactly what he completed, the status of our chemical levels, whether anything was added, and even how long we should wait before swimming. He also includes a picture of our pool after he's finished, which always gives us such peace of mind. It's rare these days to find someone who is not only so thorough, but who genuinely wants you to feel informed and confident about the care your pool is receiving. Our pool has never looked better, but more importantly, we trust Japi completely. His consistency, kindness, and dedication mean so much to us, and it shows in every visit. If you're looking for someone who will take care of your pool with honesty, heart, and true professionalism, we cannot recommend Japi and GP&A Pool Services enough. They've been an absolute blessing to us.

I cannot speak highly enough about Bula Pools and the professional pride that Caleb puts into his…read morebusiness. I vetted a total of 9 pool companies for my pool resurface/ deck overlay remodel and Bula Pools quickly and clear rose to the top. Caleb now only comes out to discuss the project in person, he educated me on how things are done correctly, common short cuts to avoid, and the nuances of the actual process. He proposal was very competitively priced to my current pool maintenance guy with many of the other competing bids coming in 30-40% more. I fell in love with a particular blue glass waterline tile and Caleb drove to three different tile stores with me to find something similar together. He was very responsive throughout the process and everyone on his crew was respectful, professional and competent. I am now swirching my monthly maintenance company over to Bula Pools and look forward to working with him for all my pool needs.

I visited the McKinney…read morebranch of the Texas Hot Tub Company ( I bought my first hot tub from them when they were Coleman Backyards). I had an exceptional experience purchasing a new Hot Springs hot tub from them. It started with Daan in Sales - he is a very kind, welcoming individual that helped us make a purchasing decision and recommended things that we had not thought of. Pricewise, they were extremely competitive and we were quite happy (I had been considering a purchase at the Costco Hot Springs Hot Tub Expo). They invited me to their Hot Tub University the next day - I somewhat reluctantly accepted as it was a Saturday and sitting in class didn't sound as good as biking, but going was a brilliant decision. The hour long class was led by Jimmy - it was extremely informative about starting and maintaining a salt water hot tub. It was also very entertaining and really more of a dialog with the ~20 attendees. We probably spent more time with questions than class. Hot Tub University was absolutely worth attending. I spent another hour discussing with Eddie (who had installed my first hot tub that I am now replacing) about the details of the hot tub that I had purchased and the best approaches for deck design for maintenance access. We also reviewed pictures of the access approach for delivery. It was just a great experience - Great people, Great products, Great service, Great price - Highly recommended.

Highest Price, Lowest Quality: A 3.5-Year-Old Pool Falling Apart Like It's 15…read more I am writing this to warn any homeowner in North Texas considering Southernwind Pools. I made the mistake of choosing them because they were the highest-priced bid and had strong reviews. I assumed that a premium price tag guaranteed premium quality and professional oversight. I was wrong. In reality, I paid for a luxury product and received bottom-tier craftsmanship from what appear to be the cheapest possible subcontractors. The construction process during COVID was already no fun, which I am not even holding against them. What I am holding them accountable for is the systemic failure of the pool's structure since it was completed in September 2022. The "Infinite" Leak Cycle and Incompetent Service We have dealt with multiple pool leaks since the very beginning. Southernwind was so delayed and unresponsive regarding leak detection that I had to personally pay for three full leak detections out of my own pocket. Even when they finally "fix" a leak, it is a temporary Band-Aid. In late 2024, a leak reappeared in the exact same spot they had supposedly repaired just one year prior. We were losing half an inch of water every single day. As a gesture of good faith after John reached out to "solve" my issues last year, I even signed up for their pool service again. That was a mistake. I quickly found that the pool service was not actually cleaning the pool properly either. It was just another layer of high-priced, low-quality service from a company that clearly does not value its customers once the initial check clears. Substandard Masonry and Tile Failure The tile and grout work on this pool is a disgrace. The grout on the spa began cracking and deteriorating almost immediately. Grout should last for several years, yet mine didn't even last one. After I fought to get it regrouted, it failed again one year later. The tile work is even worse. It was clearly not done properly, without the necessary sealing or treatment required for a pool of this "caliber." In 2025, the tiles began rising and falling out. They were "fixed" by Southernwind, only to have the exact same failure happen again during the 2026 freeze. This time it is a disaster. My entire back panel wall is rising and failing. It is proof that the original installation was fundamentally flawed. Don't Fall for the "Management Fix" I previously wrote a negative review about these issues. The President, John, contacted me and promised to resolve everything if I took the review down. I trusted him and deleted it. That was a massive mistake. The "permanent fixes" they promised were just enough to get me to stay quiet for a few months. Now, in 2026, I am facing the exact same structural failures all over again. Do not let the "premium" branding fool you. Southernwind Pools charges luxury prices but delivers a product that falls apart in under four years. I am now 3.5 years into owning a pool that has the structural problems of a 15-year-old installation. If you value your money and your sanity, look elsewhere.
