As soon as I walked through the door, I was impressed with the cleanliness and spaciousness of the retail space. There is a wide range of products from spas to pools. The pools are displayed outside, and the spas inside. There are also very nice lawn and garden type products. The first step is going to the central desk to speak with an expert on the products. We spoke at length with Rob who has total mastery of their line of pools. The clear explanation of the construction and materials was helpful and fostered confidence that we were not getting a pitch, but more of an education from a professional. We had his full attention and didn't feel at all rushed. After asking about what we were trying to achieve and the limits of space and budget, which I thought was a smart way to build rapport, he walked us through the details of the optimal pool, filter, etc. He gave us an overview on maintenance which was helpful because we were concerned about having the time for up-keep. After the purchase, the communication on delivery was excellent, and the person who delivered was very pleasant. We bought a great package that included a solar cover - which made a great difference throughout the year, and an automatic vacuum. We were given a couple of names of installers and made arrangements. The installer was out within a week or so, and our kids were in the water before Memorial Day weekend! At any point, you can walk in with a water sample for a test. Then, you go through the results with one of the technicians who interprets the results and clearly guides you through any steps you need to take to adjust any water variables. You can also pick up the phone if you have a quick question and someone will always be there to take the call and provide the insights you were seeking. Overall, this is a model of how to run a business from A to Z. The products are high quality, the service is superb, and you end up developing a friendly and familiar relationship with the staff.
Description of Work: Advised and sold us a complete pool package. Helped to arrange sub-contractor for installation. It was an 18 foot above ground pool with 1 1/4 hp motor. Filtration is with the new biodegradable alterative to DE. We also got an auto vac and solar cover as part of a premium package.

Budget Pool they were extremely knowledgeable and very helpful. They always have many technicians in the store to explain things like me who have never owned a pool before to know about the technicalities. They were very helpful. They recommend companies that can install the pool. They always have sales for odd seasons. I will be going back there in March to find out how to open the pool for summer.
Description of Work: I purchased a pool from Budget Pool.

Always a good experience -- even when I have to wait on long lines during busy days....
Description of Work: While Budget does not do "service calls" per se, they are perhaps the best and most customer friendly pool supplies and advice-giving operation around. I could get some common supplies cheaper (e.g. Super Shock) but when it comes to parts for filters, analysis of water and (I cannot stress this enough) sound and knowledgable advice, they are unbeatable. I tried to visit the stores of those who actually do my service calls, and while they are friendly they do not really match the in-store experience and help of Budget. Wished they were doing service calls -- would use them exclusively....
