About us

Arizona Pool Restoration is family owned and operated by CartGuys Inc. ROC 209073 since 1995. We offer Pool repair, Pool/Tile Cleaning, and Pool Service including new plaster and pebble tech installation by authorized pebble tech installer. Our equipment is cutting edge and "State of the Art". We can use a large variety of media to suit the job, removing calcium lines from swimming pools, spas or water features. OTHER SYSTEMS use harmful glass beads or other grit in water blasters at 4000-5000 psi which mars or scratches the tile where calcium can grow back quickly. Our system is low air pressure at 40-50 psi with a "Soft-Crystal" that is designed to disintegrate on impact. That action is what removes the white build-up at the water line without harming the pool tile, pebble, or plaster surfaces. We also remove pool stains with non-toxic stain removers (unlike harmful "acid wash") with a newly developed technology for cleaning plaster or pebble interiors. Our visit includes a complete water test for our customers, because your water chemistry can contribute to calcium build up. We offer Deck Restoration. We specialize in removing old, damaged cool deck and installing one from many choices of awesome decks that will enhance the beauty of your home.

less the a year after deck painting I had stains that were reappearing and paint on the water fall under the water fall started pealing. the second time that I contacted them I was told by the owner that he would not continue to warranty this. When I talk to the guys that came to repair the water fall I was told that the deck stains reappeared because the deck was not clear coated. the owner never gave me that option on the first visit instead steered me to the water fall. The guy that came to fix the water fall told me to clear coat the water fall below the water line to stop the paint peeling and now is all white and looks like crap. I had an appointment to clear coat the deck @ additional cost ($1700+$545) and when I contacted the owner about the water fall I got excuses, then called and canceled the appointment to clear coat the deck so now I have to find someone else to repair what they should have taken care of at further cost. Does not backup there work

When they first came out they wanted the vacuum to suck the algae; but they were able to add the right chemicals to make it balance. We have been with them since and signed up with them for $99.00. They are reliable. They come out every week and I do not worry about having them out at my house. They skim the pool, brush the walls, they keep the chemicals balanced and makes sure the chlorine is added and every month he cleans the main filers. I also recommend them to others.

The staff was not familiar with my pentair pool pump and unfortunately the man did not adjust the timing/settings as requested 6 months earlier. The staff showed up each week (which is more than I can say for the staff of 1st Choice Pools) Cleanings were done adequately most weeks, but pool was not vacuumed each week. Good service, but not outstanding.
Description of Work: Used the 49 special to have them do a one time cleaning and evaluation. Then hired them for monthly cleanings/maintenance for 6 months

Service was provided by Aaron. He was extremely polite, professional, cordial and punctual. I had problems for numerous consecutive weeks where the pool had lots of mold growing. They just weren't putting enough chlorine in the feeder. I mentioned this several times to Aaron but there continued to be problems. About half way through the 3 month service he finally started adding more chlorine and the pool started to look better. The pools was not swept well. There was dirt and mold on quite a few side and bottom surfaces. I think the problem is that my pool is a little larger than average. Therefore, they needed to use more chlorine and would need to take more time to sweep it properly. While I somewhat understand their position, they should have place size restriction in their and quot;Angie's Big Dealand quot;. I even told Aaron and the owner Jim, that I would be happy to pay extra for additional chlorine and chemicals. They never did charge me extra so I appreciated that.

This was a ploy to get people signed up with a monthly service. They didn't want to test the chemicals. What does pool restoration mean if they won't even test the chemicals? With a little prodding, he did it. When you sign up for monthly service, that's when they want to test your chemicals. The technician is very thorough and trustworthy. Been on the job three months now. We had trouble trying to pay with a credit card on PayPal initially, but it finally worked this month.

Wasn't crazy about the explanation for chemicals, If they do not have the chemical the pool needs they would acquire it and charge us additonal for it. What? I thought they were offering us a cleaning and chemical service? Oh, and it will cost extra to really look at the automatic pool filler and to fix it. Didn't really seem interested in providing us a service. Just tried to get in and out quick to make the $45.00 charge worth it for them.
Description of Work: Vacumed and checked the chemicals. Looked at the automatic filler and pump.

Response from Arizona Pool Restorations
Thank you for your comments. We are sorry for any inconvenience. We were waiting on a reply from the tile guy. We have a record of several texts to him but got nothing back. So we at Arizona Pool Restorations apologize for any misunderstandings. Not hearing back we moved on to the work at hand. However, we are always pleased to have any issues brought to our attention and we will try to rectify them if at all possible. We are, also, pleased with all the work Angie's List is providing. We also, appreciate all the excellent recommendations from Angie's List members. We are proud to serve residents of the Tucson area helping with what ever Swimming pool restorations and weekly services possible. We are happy to say that this has been the best spring ever and we again apologize for any problems that our staff may have caused. We hope we can be of service in the future.

There is a problem with my back wash valve which I've always known about, and actually have been able to maintain myself. Because of this problem the back wash valve sometimes dries out and starts to stick if it's not serviced regularly. I've had others service it for only $60 but they tried to tell me it would be $250 to repair the valve. Because of this back walsh valve not closing properly, I went out of town and came back my pool water level which had sunk about 6 inches, because water was flowing out of the pool. They told me I needed phosphate remover, which basically removes the food algae feeds on. I bought the box of phosphate remover, and added it to the pool. Then a few weeks ago, the guy said we needed to add more. He was telling me there was a problem with my water, but when I went to my nearest pool store and they tested my water they told me it was perfect. They also came out a couple weeks ago and said my three months was already up when in fact I still had 1 month left. And in another instance the guy basically came in and checked the water while I was sitting waiting, he started to head back to his car to leave and I intercepted him. The pool looked awful, and I asked him what he was going to do. He ended up staying another half an hour after I caught him, and I knew he hadn't done what he should've because he stayed the extra half an hour. I called the manager and told him we need to have someone else come out here because it still looks absolutely awful. The manager said sometimes he tries to protect the customer by not recommending the full needs of the pool because he doesn't want to charge any extra fees. I understand why he did that, but basically the point is this guy doesn't know what he's doing. In the past 2+ months (I still have some remaining time left on my service from the deal) the manager only came out just this past week. At no point in the last couple months have I felt that I could get in pool, which is why I bought the deal first place. I could've done a better job myself.
Description of Work: They were supposed to come out and clean my pool as a weekly service. My impression was they'd have it cleaned once a week.

I apologize for not meeting your expectation. I should have recommended at the beginning that additional visits would be required which would have meant added expense on your part, as the Angie's list "Big Deal" stated. We got our techs together and decided it would be in your best interest to go ahead and spend the extra time, at no charge, to "dig in" to your equipment to find out why your pump and creepy crawly were working poorly. Even though you used another pool company to make the repairs that we diagnosed and recommended, at least now we can make even more progress to make a pool you can be happy with. We hope to win your trust and continue the service for you. Thank Jim

We were both at work but I had spoken at length to the owner of the company about tile/calcium buildup. I explained it was tough to be home but one of us would be during their service. He explained what they would do, how they could help us in the future, and it all came to pass just as Jim explained. They called before they came, checked in, got started, and we came home to see the end of the process and approve of their work. James gave us good tips on maintaining the pool and the process he had completed. They cleaned up well, provided extra documentation, and explained what their weekly pool service could include that varied from our existing service. We plan to switch to Az. Pool for the monthly service to help maintain this new looking pool. We felt confident of their work and appreciated how polite as well as thorough all employees/owner have been. We also discussed some resortation work of the deck. They will be out to offer a bid. Others I called were way overpriced and truly not all that interested. Thanks to Angies' List our pool will be ready for summer.
Description of Work: James and his team member showed up on time and cleaned the tile around our Pebble Tek pool. He gave us excellent advice about calcium buildup and improving the pool's appearance. They were professional, thoughtful, and cleaned up well afterwards. Just a super experience and we felt confident we had found them on Angies' List. I had called two other big names in town who were everything Az. Pool Restorations are not. So glad I kept trying to find the right company.

We had a lot of calcium buildup at the pool and spa waterline and waterfall. I called a few of the bigger pool companies and they came out and said they couldn't do the job as it would destroy the finish on the tile. Most wanted to replace the tile for approximately $5000. I had little hope of getting the tile cleaned up. Then Arizona pool restorations came out and they said they could do it for far less than $750. They did the work -- all tile looked new. I am really pleased with the job they did and would recommend them to anyone. I was so pleased I spend another $3500 on pool deck resurfacing, spa ladder installation, and some other work. They are a father son team and obviously take a lot of pride in their work. This was a very pleasant experience.,

The pool has an approximate 12and quot;x1/2and quot; crack in the Pebbletec lining. Half of of the pool has ceramic tile at the water line. The rest is natural rock and a water fall. The tile and rocks had a substantial build up of minerals from our hard water. We called several contractors for estimates. Out of 5 called, only 2 contractors returned our calls. Turns out the other contractor did not repair Pebbletec. The prices were comperable (sans Pebbletec repair) and this company seemed to be very knowlegeable when discussing the repair on the phone. They drove out and provided an estimate and suggested start date. Once we had agreed upon price, tasks and start date we were on our way. They showed up on time, and completed it all in one day. They cleaned up the area after themselves. The workers were informative and professional. We have a dog, and they were mindful to not let the dog loose. I would recommend and use them again.
Description of Work: They were AWSOME! The price was VERY competitive. This is the first time in 12 years we have had the pool repaired and only the second time we have had it cleaned. The repair consisted of mending our peppletec which had a large break (crack). You can not see where the repair was performed. They also cleaned the tile and natural rocks. They never looked so good. They showed up ON TIME, performed a great job, very professional customer interface. I would HIGHLY recommend these folks for all of your pool repairs. We are very satisfied with the whole experience.

to avoid the need for cleaning the pool tiles again. James was great about educating us a bit more on how to maintain the proper chemical levels for our pool as we do our own maintenance and pool chemicals. All in all we are very happy with the quality of work and service provided by Jim and James. I also like supporting a local family company. I would recommend anyone needing pool tile cleaning or repairs to give them a call.
Description of Work: We had AZ Pool Restorations clean the hard water and calcium buildup off our pool tile; we also had them remove and replace the caulking that had begun to deteriorate between the pool tile and the edge of the Kool Deck. A couple weeks later we had them perform the R-O water purification for our pool to get the calcium levels (as well as other levels) back in line. They did a great job and we are so happy with how our pool looks. Jim was very informative over the phone in giving me detailed information on the processes they use, and then Jim's son James came out to the house to give us a more complete estimate, especially since we had described such a wide gap in the deteriorating caulking (in places as much as an inch or more). James wanted to see the pool for himself before giving an estimate. He came out and discussed the possible reasons for the large gap (probably that end of the pool's Kool Deck has settled over the 14 years since it was installed by the previous owner, causing the Kool Deck to lift a bit at the edge of the pool; we don't think any structural support was ever placed under the Kool Deck at the time of installation). James gave us an estimate for cleaning the pool tile and removing and replacing the caulking. (Ultimately, after the work was done, James said it took almost as much caulking for that one end of the pool as for the whole rest of the perimeter! But the final cost was exactly as quoted). After calling some other places, we decided to go with AZ Pool Restoration and are very happy with our decision. They arrived exactly when scheduled and were professional and courteous. They worked most of the day, cleaned up after themselves and we are very happy with the results. They tested the pool water and found it was very high in calcium which can quickly add to the buildup (we had not changed out the water in our pool for over 8 years). We decided to go and head and do the RO purification of the pool water as opposed to emptying the pool and refilling. We had to wait a couple weeks for the water to clear after the pool tile cleaning, but they just finished the 24 hour RO process and the calcium level has dropped to almost a quarter of its earlier levels. Hopefully if we stay on it, we may be able

I was looking for a pool company that didn't use coarse sand to clean the calcium off the tile. It was built up pretty thick over the years and I didn't want to have the tile scratched or damaged. I heard of a method that didn't use crystalized sand but a soft gel compound. I found there add on one of the mailers that come to the home and I called for an est. and Jim was polite on the phone and explained the process they use. I set up an appointment for the next week and they showed up right on time. The work was completed in 3 hours and included the cleanup and removal of all equiptment. Before they left they made sure all my questions were answered and suggestions were made to help prevent buildup in the future.
