POOLGUYZ at a glance

Google reviewers rate Pool Guyz 4.6 out of 5 stars based on 104 reviews, frequently praising the crew's punctuality, professional workmanship, and detailed explanations during services like liner installation and pool closing. However, critical feedback highlights significant communication issues, including slow response times, automated phone systems, and double-booked appointments. Some customers also report unexpected price increases after initial quotes and instances where workmanship errors caused equipment damage, contrasting with the generally positive experiences regarding the quality of the final pool maintenance.

Worst, don’t answer and if they do come out they quote you prior to, see your lot, then they charge 100x more than everyone else. Quoted 900 for a pool closing which is the most wilddddddd quote I ever got on a pool closing. So many other people who are reliable and care to work without being a theif! Check out national pool supply, aesthetics pools, Oscar’s pools, all much more reliable and pricing not over 100x the cost of a project!

Response from the owner · 3 weeks ago

You paid 550. 100x more than the project. Math ain't mathing. Thanks for the great review. Customer claims we dont answer (ive personally takin phone calls at 1am from this customer at 1am) but have quoted several projects as she seems to be unhappy with each contractor she uses and wouldnt be calling around if she had such a reliable pool company. Any other pool companies getting calls from Linda Asker beware 😀

Worst experience ever. We spoke to Rick initially who is the owner. We told him we bought our pool and the brand shape and size. He sets up the install a month out. Less than 24 hours before install his installers cancel and ask to push it back 2 days. I get the day off to be there they show up 2 hours late just to say it’s wet we can’t do it all today but we will set you up for next Thursday. So install set up for today they call me 30 mins after I text to see if they are on the way only to say we don’t know how to install your pool and no pool installer in the area does either so we aren’t coming. I can not tell you enough what a piece of shit this company is. We just wanted to the pool installed and winterized so we could enjoy it all season next year. 2 thumbs down do not recommend at all. Plus the owner couldn’t even call me to tell me he made his office girl do it. He made the appointment for a pool apparently they don’t know how to install he should have called.

We decided as a family to get a pool in spring of 2026. We knew little about pool ownership. Upon referrals from friends in the area, we contacted PoolGuyz. They installed, got us up and running, and just recently came to close it down for the season. Their crews are really good at what they do, and we've had some positive experiences so far with their work and expertise. They definitely take the biggest tasks of pool ownership off our plates, and we know that our pool set up and seasonal maintenance is well taken care of.

This was an awesome experience. CALEB and his coworker were awesome. Friendly and very knowledgeable and answered any questions I had. Would recommend your company to friends and family. Can't wait to open pool up in the spring.
