Response from 3 Anchor Bay Pools, Inc.
This customer drained his pool for months on end causing " Check- cracking " in the new surface that can only be caused by starving a surface material that is designed to be submerged in water....of water. Subsequently denying ever having done that in spite of the evidence he has written many bad reviews on every platform he could think of trying to get us to take responsibility for not only that abuse of the surface but many other chemical abuses including not using sequestriant...calcium starvation and the use of phosphate removal products. Feel free to treat this review with the disregard that is deserves. I suggest hiring a competent professional to maintain his pool from this point foward.

Process went well-prices were affordable. Appreciated the owner, Grant, being patient with us in the tile choosing process and asking many questions. Communication with crew was very limited, but calls to company were answered or returned quickly

We were very pleased with Grant’s explanation of what could and should be done to our old and unattractive pool, and with his communication throughout the process. His crew did a great job and the pool and deck are beautiful now. Highly recommend.

I was very pleased with the total project. The project was discussed completely prior to signing the contract. All work was completed in a timely manner and the final surface looks great. Also, all workmen left the area clean and free of debris. The cost was reasonable, I certainly would recommend them.

Cameron Duncan was performing my pool service when he noticed that the housing for my Pentair filter was installed incorrectly. Mr. Duncan corrected the setting so there would be proper flow through the filter.

n dec 21 we hired 3 Anchor Bay to resurface our pool, install a new heater, replace our pool lights, and fix the in-floor cleaning system (which they did NOT. I ended up needing to hire/pay someone else to actually get it fixed). The owner Grant talked us into getting a special deep blue surface that we paid an additional $5-6k for but when it was installed there were streaks and blotches. At the time of install Grant saw the streaks and blotches and said they would go away as it cured as long as we brush the surface. Grant came himself and brushed the pool once (others from 3 Anchor also came and brushed ) as did I. Every single day for months. We have a pool service and I tested the pool myself every day or so and the PH was never above 7.2. Grant said on several occasions that I needed to wait at least 3 months for the surfaces to finish curing and that if they were still there after 3 months THEN and ONLY then will he address it.. The streaks NEVER changed. I've reached out to Grant several times. I was able to get him to call me back by calling from a phone number he didn't recognize so he actually spoke to me. Well really more yelled and called a liar before he hanging up on me. He wont answer again now. He's yelled at me several times, which is really weird considering I paid him. We've contacted other pool companies and they say it should NOT look like that that it was NOT installed properly. Despite what other pool professionals tell him he denies anything is his

From the beginning the communication was awful. the work was completed however 1 pending issue of many is that the grout repairs were not done correctly. All of the grout repairs should have matched the existing grout which is white and they used the pool finish which is blue. When I talked to the owner (Grant) about this he basically said he was not going to fix it and hung up on me. I tried to contact him again but he will not respond. If you want the job done right do not use 3 Anchor Bay.

Took 3 weeks to complete about 3 days of work. Indeed we were told it would be done in a few days. Delays had nothing to do with weather. Literally every day for 3 weeks we did not know if workers would come or when - even though we asked. When we asked we were yelled at. Workers were unsupervised, didn't speak English and destroyed some of our property. The company refused to take responsibility. Left serious oil spots on our driveway. Still trying to get them out. Very rude and argumentative, lacked integrity. Regret hiring.

Response from 3 Anchor Bay Pools, Inc.
Nothing in this malicious review is true and this couple was offered their deposit back because of their argumentative, incessant continual calls before the project was even started. ( They had been told clearly that it would be one to three weeks before work started. And also told that the scheduling would be affected by weather and supplier delays and scheduling ) . On the first day that it did one of my prep guys was looking for an outlet when the wife came outside and told him to use a specific one not knowing that a freezer was plugged into it. He did what she had instructed him to do and the day after the project was completed I received an enraged call from her blaming him for the rotten meat in the freezer. Prior to that she had been delighted with the perfect job we had done fixing a previously botched job that looked hideous. After calling us negligent and suggesting that my workers could not speak or understand English, because they were reluctant to engage her in conversation due to her condescending brash nature, she embarked on a vengeful attack on my company by trashing us to anyone who provided a platform. In retrospect I know I should have cancelled this contract myself and do regret not doing exactly that. A mistake I am not likely to repeat. Perhaps in their response they would be so kind as to include some photos of our beautiful work. That would be nice.

The service was terrible, the smoothness inside the pool was bad and it has blisters bumps on the wall.

This customer is a plasterer by trade and was expecting the interior pool finish to look different than it did. The finish that was applied has blue spots in it which when lit from a single source pool light at night, magnifies every imperfection in the pool shell. This is normal. I told the customer that the surface appearance would even out some once the curing process is complete and the surface had been brushed a few times. It can also be improved by a second light source at the other end of the pool. ( A flood-light on the porch or corner of house. ) During the day none of these shadows can be seen. I suggested to the customer that he have a few pool experts or someone from the Plasterer's Council look at the pool because I was unable to convince him, after the fact, that the work was every bit as good as I said it would be before he hired us. The two experts that I had inspect the pool both said the same thing. " It is a beautiful job ". I will have to spend more time in the future warning plasterers of what to expect when looking at a swimming pool surface after it has been applied and familiarize them with the differences between pool plastering and other applications.

Attempted to have them come out for an estimate on resurfacing my pool. Waited for my scheduled appointment and no one showed up or called to cancel. When I reached out to see what happened, the individual I spoke to (I think the owner but I am not sure), said he could turn around and come now. Clearly, there was no intention of showing up for our previously scheduled appointment. I then tried to confirm his expected time of arrival, at which point he asked me if I wanted to reschedule. I was in the middle of saying I had expected him 30 mins ago, when he hung up the phone on me. Like the previous google reviewer stated, I found him rude and unprofessional. If this is how they treat a prospective customer, I would hate to see how they treat someone who they already received money from. I think this speaks volumes about this company and the service they provide. PS: The previous day I had 2 other pool companies scheduled to give me estimates. They both showed up on time and stayed in contact with me prior to their arrival. So clearly there are reputable pool companies out there.

It was clearly explained to this customer that the time of her appointment would be determined by however long the previous customer took. We were five minutes from her house when she called sounding extremely agitated and having forgotten the window of time she was given. One of the other two companies should suffice for her pool needs and we wish her the best of luck.

Very smoothly! 3 anchor Bay Orlando made a competitive bid and we contracted the work March 8.To our surprise a workman arrived Mon. and emptied the pool. Later in the day he returned and did the prep work. 2 days later a crew arrived and put the finish on the pool plus some additional work requested. The pool was filled and the next day the pool serviced with chemicals. All in all the time from signing to completion was 8 days. The job site was cleaned and you would never know any work was done. It was a fine job. They kept their word and I kept mine!

Grant went above and beyond what I expected. Professional and friendly at all times. His crew was professional and worked tirelessly until the job was done. There was no smoking, music, or loud talking. I wanted stacked stone and Grant went the extra mile to insure the stone we choose was not only beautiful, but also would work in the pool environment. We are thrilled with our pool. I have recommended 3 Anchor Bay to many people.
