the repair was done with top quality parts, no gaskets or seals were re-used - all new, and because there was algae in the pool that i did not even recognize as such they killed all of it for me (i had been using the wrong kind of treatment)

He is very knowledgable, personable and dependable. I will call Adam whenever I need any services done to my pool/spa in the future. I highly recommend his company.
Description of Work: Adam came out on a Friday to look at a problem I was having with my spa draining when pool was not running. He did not want to do the most expensive repair unless it really needed it (which most other companies would just jump to doing the most expensive repair) which I respected. He cleaned a few things up to see if it would fix my issue and told me to watch it over the weekend and if I was still having problems, he would do the more expensive repair on Monday. The spa still drained a little over the weekend so I authorized him to do the more expensive repair (which was not really that expensive - $100) and my spa has been great ever since. He came out right away on the Monday morning after the weekend so I really appreciated the promptness.

I was afraid that one of my filter elements was damaged because DE dirt was being pumped back into the pool. Adam took a look at it and pulled out the backwash handle and found a broken o ring which was allowing the filter to backwash a little back into the pool. He replaced this and was gone in 10 mins. I am very satisfied. So to summarize about 12:45 I found A's pools review on Angie's list. Called and left a message at about 1 pm and Adam called me back at 2pm, and been here fixed my problem and left 10 mins ago. Its 2:40 now I'm still waiting for my former pool company to call me back.... :)
Description of Work: Adam changed the o rings on the backwash valve.

Wonderful! Adam returned my phone call the same day. He was out the next day and diagnosed the solution to the problems I was having. I have used around 5 different pool service companies in the eight years I have had my pool and have never been completely satisfied with them. Several of them have cost me more money and made more problems than I had to start with. I am so glad I found Adam. He did everything he said he would do. He said he had to come out two days in a row and did so. He is knowledgeable, professional and respectful. He only does exactly what is needed. He is completely honest.

Called to see if I could get a service call and they were there in thirty minutes. They evaluated the situation, checked the equipment, and gave me honest answers. We scheduled the installation of a new motor for the following morning (a lot cooler in the deserts of Arizona.) Bright and early as promised they returned and in about ninety minutes our pool pump was running smoothly again. I had gotten the run around with the big national pool repair company, was frustrated and tried Angie's List for some quality service that I could trust and a fair deal. I got all of this with the first call! We will be using A's Pool Service & Repair for all future pool equipment repairs and maintenance. Thanks for your prompt, friendly service!

I just moved to Phoenix and this house had a pool I was unfamiliar with. I needed someone to show me how to take care of it. I went on Angie's Llist and found someone close to my home and called him. Adam picked up the phone and said he would be over in an hour. Wow! He came over and took the time to teach me all about my pool and we took the filter apart together and cleaned it. He was very patient with me, explaining the workings and even added chemicals. All he wanted in return is Gas money. How sweet is that! I was so happy for his knowledge and willingness to show me how to take care of my own pool, for almost nothing, that I doubled his gas money in gratitude. I feel Adam is very trustworthy and anyone who needs anything for their pool, Adam is your guy. I know now if anything breaks, I am CALLING ADAM FIRST!

I can't say enough about Adam. I've been having one problem or another with my pool for over a year. I replaced the filter system and things were working great. But I began to have air coming into the system and noticed my Barracuda cleaner was losing power and would stop after a few minutes. I had a larger company listed here with rave reviews come out and inspect and the problem was misdiagnosed and cost me $400+ between buying another indwelling pool cleaner and the visit to my house. It took Adam all of 3 minutes to diagnose the problem. I turned the pump on, he heard the sound of the motor and said that's the problem. Replaced the motor and it's been smooth sailing since. My pool looks awesome!

As I described in the Services Performed, with one cleaning in, we are very happy with Adam and the team.
Description of Work: We have been looking for a local company to service our pool. To say our pool was a mess is an understatement. We just have not made the time to keep up with it and why we decided to hire a service. I of course used Angie's List to find Adam and have to say with one full cleaning under our belt we could not be more pleased. Adam showed up when he said he would and went to town on the initial cleaning. It was a night and day difference in the pool. It's been a long time since it was that clear and clean. Time will tell but so far Adam and team get an overall A Rating from us!!

Adam was great. He answered my call on Wednesday where I told him that I needed to have the sand in my filter replaced and was also interested in an overall diagnosis of my pool and equipment. Adam showed up a few minutes early (fantastic!) and checked the equipment front to end. He noticed that the pump was not taking a full prime and backwashed my filter, which fixed it immediately (two previous pool services had not been able to fix it). He provided recommendations on pool care regarding acid wash, chemicals, and stablization and was on his way in about a half hour of time. This is how business should be run! You can bet I'm referring to neighbors and friends and will be calling him for future service. Thanks Adam! Thanks A's Pool Service & Repair!
Description of Work: A's Pool Service provided me with a diagnosis on my equipment and overall condition of the pool. They also performed backwashing and quoted me a price to replace a broken pool light.

The team has been very proactive in helping me understand the system and getting it up and running as it wasn't in the best shape from the previous owner. I will retain Adam and team to do the weekly service. I appreciate the effort that has been put into place and have no reason to think this effort will diminish based on the interactions I've had with them so far.
Description of Work: Adam and his team have been servicing my pool/spa since before I moved into my house. So far, they have been there several times getting the chemical balances in line and thoroughly cleaning both pool and spa.

My pool's cleaning system wasn't working properly. The pop-ups on the bottom of the pool were popping up but not shooting water to push dirt toward the main drain like they're supposed to. Adam showed up on time to diagnose the issue which ended up being a missing part. He quoted me a very reasonable price for the repair. Adam also suggested I have the DE filter serviced prior to the summer months, so I had that done as well. Adam needed a day to obtain the part needed for the repair. He came and performed the repair and filter cleaining the following day while I was at work, so I didn't need to take any time off from work. My pool cleaning system is now working like it should. I definitely plan on using Adam in the future for my pool service/repair needs.

I had recently moved in to new house and was ignorant on pool maintenance. Adam provided quote to clean DE filters and took time to walk me thru standard maintenance so that I could perform it next time. I was thoroughly pleased with work done, and have already have used Adam for other pool issues.

Excellent, highly recommend.
Description of Work: I contacted Adam based on Angie's List reviews. I initially called him to clean my DE filter, however he recommended that I wait until spring rather than just take my money. He did replace my badly worn auto fill valve and float. He is also investigating a spa drain down. Adam has very good pool knowledge and could operate my pool on the first visit better than a service man who was fixing it for a year and a half.

This section of report does not apply for my situation with A's Pool Service and Repair.
Description of Work: I have a problem with a salt chlorinating system. Adam advised they did not service this type of equipment but referred me to someone who does. That reference was very valuable to me. It would have taken me a while to find a service that could help me. I found A's Pool Service and Repair on Angie's list for pool draining and cleaning. I plan to hire them, subject to reasonable pricing, early next year to drain and clean the pool. (I drain the pool every other year in February/March time frame.)

We returned to our home after 10 days away and found that our pool was green, gross, and murky. There was a note from our usual pool service provider (we had not discovered A's Pool Service and Repair, yet) that stated that he thought one of filter's grids was probably torn. I also saw that he needed to administer 4 packets of Shock to the pool. The pool smelled like chlorine and was disgusting looking. Since it was late, I waited until morning to call our normal pool service (again--not A's). Neither of my calls were answered or returned (although there was an email reply later that afternoon). I found A's on Angies List and spoke directly to Mr. Smolinski. We were able to make an appointment for the next day. Adam called 10 minutes before his arrival and was absolutely on time. He went out to the pool with my husband, quickly diagnosed the problem, and gave us instructions on how to easily fix it. He said that since it was such a minor thing, payment would not be neccessary. We wanted to at least compensate him for his time and gas. Instead of accepting our payment he simply asked that the next time something in our pool does require repair, that we think of him. We will definitely use this company in the future. The technician was extremely knowledgeable, pleasant, and honest. I will recommend A's to any and all seeking a reputable pool service and repair company.
Description of Work: Mr. Smolinski quickly determined the cause of our pool's green water. He tightened the loose cap that was causing the problem, instructed us to run the cleaning system, told my husband what kind of algicide(?) and chlorine to add, how much of the chemicals was needed, and did not charge us a cent. We wanted to at least compensate him for his time.

We have been highly satisfied with Adam's work from the very first meeting.
Description of Work: A's has taken over regular maintenance of our pool. We had become very dissatisfied with our previous provider and found A's on Angie's List. Adam is highly professional, caring, and prompt. Shortly after he took over, we finally had to replace the motor on our pump (it had been slowly dying for some time). He did it quickly and properly right from the get-go. He was also honest with us: while the filter for our pool is a bit too small, it wouldn't be cost-effective to replace it. Our previous provider had strongly recommended we make a change. Adam saved us over $800! I am thrilled to have Adam looking after my pool and hope to use his services for many years to come.

Al was very punctual, arrived right on time as was scheduled. His knowledge was very encouraging to know the problem would be solved. He eliminated one problem at a time in order to find the issue and did not do everything at once, which could have cost more. I would definitely recommend him and I will use him again with future problems.
Description of Work: There was an air leak in the pool pump, which eventually caused it to quit working.Al was very informative on the problem I was having with the pool pump. He tried numerous things and it finally worked to correct the problem.
