Excellent service of closing and reopening my pool. They did it all, folded cover, packed it in dock box, screwed down anchors, installed railings, installed discharge nozxles, installed fittings on water filter, primed and started filter. Perfect and worth every dollar! Stan B Sr Whiting Nj

My experience with Nicholas has been amazing. The communication and transparency is what stood out. Considering to purchase a pool, they came down to walk us through and educate us on the entire process and discussed every details with all options. Highly impressed!

Excellent!! Whatever crew was here to do the work all of the men were courteous and polite. Afterwards they cleaned up any and all messes made by them while performing their jobs. We now have a beautiful pool we can't wait to enjoy this summer and all the summers to come. They worked efficiently and not a lot of noise which kept my neighbors happy and they are looking forward to the summer to be in our new Nicholas Pool! All the girls at the office were always available to us for any questions we may have had, one gave us her personal cell number. We would recommend Nicholas Pools to anyone looking for a great company to install in ground pools with a great bunch of hard workers, Thank you Nicholas Pools.

New liner Install was good BUT their customer service people need to be replaced. I had a appointment for my new pool liner to be re-tucked when I reopened it this year ,which by the way only less than a year old . Had to pull teeth to get a appointment for June 18th , 2021 but no one showed up or called and I waited around all day . I called 7 times and left messages along with 4 emails and no one has returned any of my calls . I also left a message for a manager to call me and still nothing . Besides their customer service person was very nasty when I tried to originally get an appointment . I still have not received a return call to tell me why they never showed up . I guess they like your money and then forget about you . I would never recommend them to anyone .

My wife and I consulted with and received estimates from 3 Pool companies including Nicholas Pools. We selected Nicholas Pools because of their long history (experience), pool design and price. Zack our sales associate was very helpful and knowledgeable while designing our pool. I have to say all the sub-contractors that came to our home to build our pool, i.e. excavator, installer, electrician and plumbing, are excellent. They were more than happy to answer any questions or concerns we had. The Nicholas Front Office was very helpful and considerate throughout the process and really aim to please. My family and I are extremely happy with our pool.

They charge $75 every time they come. It depends who comes, they have several service people, they are inconsistent. Some service people come and do a great job and others come and it is kind of okay. The price is average.
Description of Work: They come weekly.

went well, except for the second year in a row they dumped the chlorine tabs that were in the chlorinator on the ground near the pool filter. As I explained to them this year and last year, not good when we have a dog and toddler in the yard. Before I could call them to complain, they called me asking if the pool service went ok. I did explain to them the issue and they said they would advise the workers appropriately. Otherwise no issues.

They arrived when they said they would and all work was very professional. They "took time" to let my wife and I know how to operate the unit, but also some extra things they have learned that would be helpful to make the system work even better. We will be using this company again when needed.
Description of Work: Installed a new Hayward Pool Filter System to replace our old Filter.

I had this company open up the pull. What a mistake!I've never had a pool before and was hoping to get a quick over few on how to operate the filter and such. The Tech was mean and didn't want to answer any of my questions.They took the cover off, didn't clean it. I had to remind the to put away in the storage. They just dumped half a bag of DE into the skimmer and left. What a rip off.Stay away from Nicholas Pools!!! VERY LOUSY!

The pool turned out wonderful after they installed it for us. What stood out about the company was that they build a good pool. Everybody seemed to know what they were doing. They do our openings and closings every year too. They are good people to deal with.

The owner was hands on. They paid attention to detail. They worked around my schedule. I am satisfied with the end result. The owner and sales person were very attentive, and periodically stepped in to make sure everything was good. Their price was competitive. It wasn't the best, but not the worse.
Description of Work: I hired Nicholas Pools to install a pool for me.
