Daniel and the people who work for him are very professional/knowledgeable I have now retained him for weekly service. The reason the first visit was so expensive was that I had to have a new filter....which they installed the next day. Great service, good price, easy to communicate with.
Description of Work: Cleaned the pool and replaced the filter.

I had issues with another pool service. I spoke with Daniel who went to my house and provided an assessment. Gave me a great price. He personally went to the house and cleaned the pool. I decided to stay with him because of his honesty and integrity. I highly recommend 1st Choice Pool Service.

I called 1st Choice pool service and Daniel was at our home and hands in our pool within 90 minutes. He was able to diagnose and fix our pump issue that another pool company couldn't diagnose. Daniel was in and out in less than 10 minutes. The fix was cost free and with the Angies list coupon the house call was an extremely affordable $29. We will only use 1st choice from now on Daniel earned our trust. We have a lot of friends and family with pools as well. Thank you 1st Choice it is refreshing to have found an honest pool service.
Description of Work: Daniel diagnosed and fixed our pump issue in less than 5 minutes.

Our pool never looked better. Daniel really knows what he is doing. We had problems with our filter and Daniel got us a new one and installed it for us. Glad we have him taking care of us.

I purchased the Big Deal promotion from 1st Choice Pool because it was a great deal. We had just purchased our home and have not had a pool before so it needed cleaning and chemical adjustment. Also, never have owned a pool I wanted a professional to give me an overview of what to expect in owning a pool along with other practical information. Daniel came out the first time and identified a suction problem with my pump as well as hairline cracks within the plumbing. He came out the next day and repaired the suction issue so that we had a usable filter; this in addition to cleaning the pool. Daniel and his crew have come out here every week since and done a really good job keeping the pool vacuumed and cleaned. I have nothing, but good things to say about this company. I went all through Angie's List looking for pool cleaning services and could not pull the trigger on one because there was no clear winner among home owner's in this area. So, if you are like me and on the fence about who you should hire to clean and service your pool, give 1st Choice Pools a try, you won't regret it.
Description of Work: This company performs weekly pool cleaning services for me as well as identified and corrected mechanical issues with my pump and filter.

He could have made more money by telling me I needed a new pump but instead, he was very honest and informative. I will always go with 1st Choice Pools in the future.
Description of Work: My pool pump wasn't building any pressure in the tank nor would it circulate the water to either of the filters. I thought I would have to buy a new pump but, Daniel had the blocked pipe cleared within 5 minutes and he gave me tips on how to prevent the blockage in the future.

Daniel and his team have done a stellar job keeping our pool clean and sparkling. We bought his yearly service so we don't have to pay for each service. Since 1st Choice provides the chemicals, we don't have to take time shopping for them and storing them. 1st Choice provides reliable and excellent service!
Description of Work: Weekly pool service...all chemicals included. Full year of service paid for in advance.

We have had 1st Choice Pool Service for almost a year now. We bought their weekly service to take care of our pool. We are not there often as this is our vacation/retirement home. We come out at various times of the year and the pool has always been sparkling clean and ready to swim. They would brush/skim and vacuum/skim alternate weeks and take care of all the chemicals, basket cleaning and backwashing. Suggestions on the pool was answered being very satisfied. They even went out of their way to shut off the valve at the water meter when the main water pipe broke before the shutoff valve at the house and gave me a call about it to let me know. I thought Tucson doesn't get that cold? LOL Anyways, look for their Big Deals on service for yearly cleaning service of your pool. Looking forward to another year of service from them! Thanks Daniel and team!

It took longer and was more involved than anyone knew....but he did a great job.
Description of Work: We needed to fix the pool light.THe installer left the electrical wire about 2 feet too short to reach the deck to change the light. We would have to deal with this each time the bulb went out! We needed to replace the entire light and cord to teh box. We ran into road block after road block getting it out, putting it back in, etc. Daniel was very patient in trying different things and we finally got the job done. We liked him so much, he now does our weekly pool service!

Daniel was prompt to return my call, listened well, and was very helpful over the phone. I thought I had a pool plumbing leak, but it turns out I didn't find one. He was willing to have me do the digging, so that he could just do the repair - important because I've been out of work for 10 months. I like having a contractor who is willing to work with me. I will definitely call him again if I need repairs.

lDaniel from 1st Choice Pools is a professional that knows just what your pool needs to look crystal clear.
Description of Work: I have taken care of my pool for 25+ years and just decided that since I was so busy at work I would get someone else to do it this year. i thought I knew everything about pools. He has shown me many things to make my pool better! My Kreepy Krawler is now quiet. It used to sound like a threshing machine. If you have a problem you can call him and tell him about the problem and he diagnosis it over the phone and tells you what you need. If it is something that he needs to fix, he can then get the part and bring it when he comes to your house, thus saving time. He is wonderful at knowing what the problem is. I bought a years pool service from Daniel at half price. It is the best thing that i have done for myself. I can recommend Daniel for yearly maintenance of your pool or just fixing a problem with the pool or pool timer. Daniel fixed a problem for me when my pool timer stopped working. He also cleaned out my pool filter when it stopped filtering my pool water. He addresses your problem quickly and professionally.

Daniel, was very responsible and timely with all of the work performed. The pool was dark green with algae and he was able to make the water crystal clear. I will be using him in the future and would highly recommend 1st choice for your pool needs.

Overall, went very well. The owner was fantastic when he came out. Did everything needed, including powerwash the pleated filter. The other person who performed service did not always come on the designated day, and was not forth coming in stating so. Service was done once a week, the issue was being able to keep gate locked (a liability) I am use to taking care of my pool and have not had any problems in the past and just wanted a different person to look at it and see if my 10y old pool needed anything I was missing. Very good deal, especially as it included chemicals over a good bit of the high swimming season.
