Enjoying coffee in our beautiful new backyard this morning reminded us how grateful we are to Joel and Wells Pools! From the beginning, Joel took the time to listen and understand our vision. We wanted more than a pool — we dreamed of having an outdoor living space, but we were starting from scratch and overwhelmed…
My experience with Wells Pools was great! Joel was complete & clear when answering my questions. The workers were great also! They even finished earlier than his quoted timeline! I would highly recommend Wells Pools to anyone looking to install a new in ground pool!
Joel Wells designed and installed our pool nearly a decade ago. After countless backyard swim parties and barbecues for kids who are now nearly grown, we still love our pool as much as the first day we swam in it. In addition to the beauty it adds to our yard and the cooling plunges we get on hot Sacramento days,…
We just had a pool installed by Wells Pools and we are in love and have been enjoying daily all summer!! We worked with Andrew, and he was wonderful to work with and so friendly and helpful. He designed our pool as well as communicated with us daily throughout the whole process. All of the contractors were…
Great pool installation, design assistance, and customer service during and afterward! 5 years later, the pool and patio still look great and are the highlight of our entertaining space.
Very professional. Project ran on time. I would definitely use them again and recommend them to my friends and family.
We had a great experience with Wells Pools from start to finish. The process moved quickly, and they immediately handled the permitting process for our gas heater and pool/spa setup, which was especially important because our situation was being grandfathered in. Their communication throughout the project was…
We were exceptionally pleased with the professionalism of each person who worked on our project and give our highest recommendations to Wells Pools. We had an extremely challenging situation in the hills in Vacaville. We were taking out an existing pool from the 1980s and transforming the backyard into an adult…
We’re very happy with our pool by Wells Pools. Building on a hillside was challenging, but they handled the engineering and design exceptionally well. Their suggestion of a faux-infinity edge really enhanced the look and views. The crew was professional and courteous, and the equipment and workmanship are top…
We had a really great experience with Wells Pools from start to finish. Joel was actually recommended to us by a family friend, and honestly, we’re really glad we went with him. We had just finished building our home and wanted to complete the backyard with a pool and overall design. From day one, Joel was super…
I had heard plenty of horror stories from friends about their pool builds with different companies. The only positive experience I’d heard was from a friend who used Wells Pools. I ended up bidding them against Paradise Pools, and the pricing came out nearly identical. Choosing Wells Pools was the right decision. I…
Really happy with Wells Pools. Easy to work with and the pool came out great! Would highly recommend to anyone looking to install a new pool!
We had a great experience working with Wells Pools. They were very communicative and professional, answering any and all questions immediately. The workmanship on the pool is impeccable, and done in an extremely efficient manner. We were constructing an ADU next to the pool simultaneously, and they did a wonderful…
Joel has been wonderful to work with from start to finish. Highly recommend Well’s Pools!
We highly recommend Wells Pools. Andrew Reego provided excellent service from design to completion and custom designed a large lap pool with an automatic cover and thermal solar heating. He was always very responsive and a pleasure to work with, as were the efficient crews for every stage of construction. He had…
Highly recommend Wells if you are building a salt pool! Dave was wonderful to work with. Knowledgeable, patient, reasonable, responsive, transparent, and collaborative with the other contractors. Our project was delayed getting started due to city permits, but once we got the green light, it was full steam ahead, go…
I would like to give Wells Pools a huge shout out for the amazing work with the development of my pool. They were extremely professional, especially Andrew, who kept me in the loop of every single step even past normal working hours and weekends. His expertise in designing allowed us to ensure we had our dream…
I had an outstanding experience with Wells Pools, and I couldn't be happier with the results of our new pool. Andrew, who managed the project and designed the pool, deserves special recognition for his exceptional work. From the initial consultation to the final touches, Andrew's expertise and attention to detail…
Wells assisted us from design input to building a beautiful pool and spa in around three months. Wells also assisted with awning, pool deck/patio, pool cover, outdoor BBQ/kitchen and fire pit. We have been enjoying pool all summer and very happy with the way everything turned out. We would highly recommend the Wells team.
Our pool is beautiful. We worked with Andrew of Wells, one of the owners, from start to finish, and had an excellent experience . He listened to us then helped with the design ideas that met our needs, AND worked within our budget to get the pool we wanted. This company is very responsive and communicated with us…
