I couldn’t get anyone else to come out. I left Mike a message and he called me back timely. It was much quicker than I ever expected. He came out on short notice, made my necessary repairs and my pool is back running. I plan on using him for additional work. Thanks Mike!!!

UPDATE 4/15/25: I tried to take down my previous five-star review and replace it with a solid three star review. Short story, our pool has cracks and is losing water. Our original intent hiring this crew, was to make the pool water-tight. We were losing water through a cracks. What should have happened, and what Mike should have suggested, was to get a diver from the get-go to confirm where the leaks were. Instead, we were sold on the idea of re-surfacing the entire pool interior, a costlier alternative than fixing only the trouble spots. I should have insisted on the diver. Now we have a new quartz pool with a big crack and we're still losing water down by the drain. This was a $60,000+ reno , but the pool leaks didn't seem like priority #1 for them. ORIGINAL COMMENT: Mike and his son are detail oriented and responsive. They repaired cracks and refinished our indoor pool. Their subs do good work as well. I'm happy with the work they did and would recommend them for any pool renovation.

Mike, the owner of the company, was extremely knowledgeable and professional, communicating with me at every step of the project. I hired them based on a recommendation and am extremely happy that I did. Not only did they do the work we had hired them for, but they helped me correct issues created by another company that would have caused problems in the future. They are focused on performing quality work at a reasonable cost. They wanted to do the job right! And I am grateful for the help they provided and the work that they did. I would hire them again in a second...as a matter of fact I have hired them to do all my future pool closings and openings! Thanks Mike and you team for a great job!

This is an excellent company the workmanship is superber and the people who work there are reliable friendly and pleasant and protectionists. They did the plaster work as thought they were finishing the Sistine Chapel. Best workman we have ever had. They built a flight of stairs leading down into the pool.

Mike came to winterize our pool and put on a pool cover. He put a great effort to get his work done in a perfect way. He was so professional. We will hire him again for the pool liner work.

We hired Mike to rehab an old in-ground liner pool that had been neglected for decades before we bought our home. It was so bad and on such a state of disrepair that we were planning on filling it in. Mike truly made our dreams come true with the final product and we have already been enjoying it this season!
