After firing our previous pool service company because our pool had been green for 3 weeks, I called Daniel and he had one of his guys go out the same day. By the next day the pool was crystal blue and gorgeous. Obviously we kept them to continue to service the pool on a weekly basis. The pool has never been cleaner and blue in the 3 years we have had it. The whole experience was A+ from the moment I called them.

I put this company in our rolodex for future work. He was terrific.
Description of Work: Service tech took care of a problem with our swimming pool return. He broke a plastic item (not his fault) but returned 2 days later with a replacement part. A very professional young man.

They brushed, emptied baskets, tested the pool water, provided chemicals and added whatever was needed, backwashed the pool as needed, adjusted the auto-fill float and made sure the system was working expertly each week for the 8 week Big Deal period. They are very pleasant guys with excellent communication skills. We have continued their services since the 8 week period and are very satisfied.
Description of Work: Daniel and Jaime cleaned our pool--brushed, emptied baskets, tested the pool water, provided chemicals and added whatever was needed, backwashed the pool, adjusted the auto-fill float and made sure the system was working well--weekly for 8 weeks per the Big Deal.

Ongoing maintenance has been great and this has been during the monsoon season with lots of junk blowing in and rain. I used another comapny before, they were more expensive and had a high markup on replacement parts.
Description of Work: Last service date, pool cleaning and maintenance was today but I have been using them three months now. Daniel and his crew are the best, best-priced and friendly impeccable service.

I submitted my Big Deal payment and Daniel called within a couple of hours. He came to the house that afternoon and has been cleaning and servicing the pool weekly. He and Manny work hard. It's clear they are very busy, but they'll always make time for any questions or concerns I have. Daniel has recommended various repairs and replacements, but I never feel pushed. Completely trustworthy. I'd recommend 1st Choce to anyone.
Description of Work: I took the Big Deal - one year of pool service for $649. I couldn't be happier. Daniel is the best - helpful, friendly, reliable and professional. He recently hired Manny, who is also very helpful and reliable.

Quick response from the initial email through Angie's list. They set an appointed for the next day, came on time, and provided me with a nice review of my system. I signed up for ongoing weekly service with them. They have provided more feedback on things going on with the pool system in one week than I had received in two years from former service company. I feel a lot better about the pool and that they will take great care of maintaining it. One less thing for me to worry about!
Description of Work: Review of pool system and initial assessment of weekly services. They performed a cleaning of pool and lubed equipment. The fee is for monthly services that includes: regular chemicals, clean, testing of water chemistry & balance, brushing of pool walls, bachwashing filter...

He was very prompt in coming out. He was very good. I asked for an estimate and he came out the same day. He seemed very knowledgeable. He gave me a good price and was not ready to do things right away. It was a free estimate. His price was good. I haven't got any other quotes, but it seemed reasonable. He didn't try to oversell and seemed honest. He was right on time. I was impressed with him. He was very professional.

The weekly service on my old (1996) pool was good but had one really big problem for me: had to do an acid wash to get the stubborn light green algae fully removed (Chlorine shock was not enough- too much residual chlorine already staying in pool). It was $300 and they did it in one day, but my real surprise was the water bill later, also over $340.00. I'll remember not to do that during the summer and not during a water price increase! Service was otherwise timely and punctual. Dan the owner was quite willing to work with you to get things just they way you want it even installed pool parts filler float, pressure valve, water cutoff valve for me at no cost. The other workers did not seem to be as knowledgeable as Dan but the Pool now is really clean and sparkling and a great swim.
Description of Work: The monthly service (75.00) started in May to do everything weekly: add/check chemicals, remove and clean filters, sweep and vacuum pool.

Daniel was extremely helpful even though he could hardly move. I ended up purchasing the mechanism from a pool supply shop and replaced the mechanism myself with Daniel's thorough instructions. It went smoothly I'm extremely satisfied.
Description of Work: Daniel came to repair/replace the intake mechanism for my pool to spa valve, however he had hurt his back the day before and could hardly move. He did his very best to help me. He removed the mechanism and then showed me exactly what I need to buy and how to put it back on.

After trying three different pool services, I finally found 1st Choice Pools on Angie's List and decided to give them a try. I waited a month to write, because I wanted to see if the excellent service I was receiving would continue, and I am happy to say that it has! Daniel is a professional who gives the customer both comfort and confidence that he knows what he is doing and that he will make sure the pool looks beautiful. I used to hate my pool, because it was such a burden. Now I am loving it again!
Description of Work: Weekly pool service...the works, except for vacumming the bottom of the pool, which he does on occasion anyway and doesn't charge me extra.

My story isn"t finished yet. The owner answered my call on the same day. He personally came to see the pool and did the first service call. There was a preexisting problem with my filter. On the next visit he brought a helper and together they took care of the problem for a very fair price. Since then every Tuesday my pool is serviced and cleaned. It sparkles and honestly I feel a bit spoiled.
Description of Work: Fantastic service. I have the year long weekly pool service. My pool is sparkling clear. The service comes on Tuesday and has helped me with small pool issues that existed before they signed on. Very receptive and personable.

Daniel was great! He was easy to communicate/coordinate with via email and txt and kept us apprised of his arrival time (because it had changed throughout the day). When he arrived he was friendly and personable and explained all the possible problems with our pool filter and encouraged us to watch him diagnose it. When it was determined that the motor was completely dead, Daniel gave us an on the spot estimate for replacing it and scheduled a time with us right then to do the work. The day he came to replace the motor he called to let me know he was on his way and then the next thing I knew he was calling to let me know he was done! The repair (which was to replace the motor entirely) was quick and efficient and came in right on his estimate. He also repaired some minor other things that he discovered (our lack of backwash hose, etc.) He was extremely patient with my questions and did not seem to mind in the least that my husband and I hovered around asking about the work (not that we questioned the quality or his ability, but we wanted a better understanding of how the system worked). Our motor had died last year but due to travelling we never bothered to replace it. Our [very large, in ground] pool had been sitting empty since last year and Daniel explained any complications we could have starting it up (and answered all the questions I had about our getting it started again in re: chemicals, etc.), advised us to check for hairline cracks, etc. He is, the great work aside, a great guy and based on our experience with him on this repair, we also hired him to do our weekly pool service.
Description of Work: Replaced our pool filter motor (after testing the fuses, testing the motor and determining that it was dead) and repaired some pipes at the filter where there were obvious signs of previous leaking (calcium build up).

Excellent. All positive. They arrived promptly to our agreed upon arrival date and time and performed the aforementioned services professionally and efficiently and to the agreed to price of $400. Their follow on weekly pool servicing has been outstanding and well documented. We highly recommend this service provider for your pool and spa cleaning and servicing needs. They also can provide repair services for all of your pool and spa equipment, i.e., they do not subcontract that work out.
Description of Work: 1st Choice ergonomically removed all the calcium build up on all of our pool and spa tiles (and grout lines) and then protected the tiles and grout lines with a protective coating to help reduce the build up of future calcium. We then had them start a weekly pool service which they have been doing for the last two (2) weeks and are doing an awesome job! As part of this weekly pool service, the owner, Daniel, wanted to "baseline" the entire pool and spa system so he cleaned all of the filters in the system and the Turbo Cell that we have as part of our chlorine generation system (uses salt to do so) at no extra fee.

See above. Daniel also gave me the option of purchasing the cracked plastic basket inside the exterior pipes leading to our filter or having him pick one up for us, and he asked me if I had a preference as to what time of day that he, or his assistant, come to service our pool. I hope he always takes this much pride in his business.
Description of Work: First, let me say that I am not out to bash any pool company. Although we had Luna Pools servicing our pool for the past 9 months or so, we decided to switch to 1st Choice Pools because of the offer through Angie's List for full service for one year at a significant discount. Daniel was responsive and listened to my concerns about our hot spa having an area on the side of the bottom step with calcium buildup, and how it had been there for the past year that we have owned our home. Not only did Daniel quickly respond to my concerns that our pool vacuum needed some tweeking, but he drained the spa water into our pool so he could take a closer look at the step. He showed me how the crack had spread across the step and recommended that I call Meadows Plastering to inquire about having it fixed. We are waiting for Meadows to fit us into their schedule for the crack repair. But, in the meantime, we are very pleased with the first class pool maintenance from 1st Choice Pools. Keep up the good work and we will keep you after our year is up!
