Flash did a great job. My sand filter developed a crack in a seam and needed to be replaced. I called and left a message and Flash got back to me the same day. He came to inspect the job the next day and confirmed the crack and that replacement was needed. He scheduled the job within 2 business days and completed it in an afternoon. He also discovered a leaking gasket which he replaced. He called me the next day to check to see if I was satisfied. Not only was his service top notch, his receptionist was super friendly on the phone!
Description of Work: Replace sand filter

Description of Work: cost was part of home warranty..was suppose to worked on pool heater,but got total run around,after stating he wasn't sure what was wrong but had us have a plumber out to check gas line..that turned out no problem he had ordered a part without telling us..andthen heater would not even turn on after he left! Got the total scam run around from him and home warranty.I would not recommend this service to anyone!He also gave explantion of what could be the problem and totally told my husband something different,thinking my husband had no idea how to fix problem.We only picked them because we were going through our home warranty which also just gave the runround.But even if we were chosing Flash Pool Service on our own..answer would still not use this service again!!! He did not solve issue only made it worse.

After a month of them not showing up and our pool starting to get murky after some rain storms, we called to reset it up or see what the problem was. The receptionist gave us Flash's number and my husband called and he said he had just flat out decided not to clean our pool. Didn't let us know they weren't going to come so we could get someone else, just didn't show and wasn't planning on it.
Description of Work: Came out to clean our pool, ended up having to drain it. Things seemed to be going Okay, and we got the pool back to blue with new clear water. We told them we wanted to start doing monthly maintenance with them.

I have used this provider to do weekly pool maintenance for several years. At the end of May this year, reportedly, our pump motor stopped working. No one ever let us know about the need for the repairs, the approximate cost to do the repairs, options for parts, etc. Reportedly, a subcontractor was simply sent to our home and completed the repairs. We were billed $750 for parts and services we did not approve. I tried several times to work with the owner on coming to an agreement about what I would pay for unauthorized repairs. At one point he threatened to come to my property and remove the new motor an just leave my pump in a non-functioning state. The owner repeatedly told me that the error in failing to get my approval for the repairs was the fault of an employee that had been fired and so I should be willing to pay the new price he proposed. When I offered to pay half of the cost to "split the difference" with him, he was outraged. Needless to say, we are now using a new pool servicer and would never recommend this provider to anyone.
Description of Work: provided weekly service for several years. Also replaced pump motor and some fins within the filter this summer.

Provider to fix a leak in a challenger pump and investigate pool lights. Owner sent a subcontractor out to do the work. Rates were not explained ahead of time ($150/hr). Pump housing was cracked, they used an idle pump I had to fix the issue. There appeared to be a short in the wiring of the lights and the bulbs were burned out. Subcontractor spent hours (2.5) troubleshooting the issue. LIghts were all rewired on the same circuit and bulbs were replaced. Subcontractor couldn't get 2 out of the 3 lamp housings back into the hole and left it for me to screw in later. (the water was cold) 5-6 months later the lamps burned out and I called for the owner Flash to do something about it. He refuses to call back. The lights were rarely used and shouldn't burn out in 5 months. Please send someone to finish the job correctly and warranty your work especially if you're going to charge $150/hour.
Description of Work: Substituted a pump, rewired faulty circuit, replaced bulbs(mostly)

1. We consulted another business called "Always Worth It!" This company is headed by Mark Worth who treated us with respect and fixed the pump problem we wanted fixed for $200.00. The pool works fine. Replacing the entire pool is not a reasonable or conservative option. 3. We will never use Flash Pool Service and will certainly never recommend this to anyone.
Description of Work: 1. We tried to contact this company several times before getting a response and then he seemed put out that we wanted him to come and give us an estimate on fixing our pump. Then he just randomly called and said he was coming. 2. When he came he looked at our older pool and said the whole thing was old and needed to be redone and was flippant about all questions we asked him and told us that our current system is old and cannot be fixed.

Flash Rose is a wonderful Pool/Spa tech, and the people working for him are always knowledgeable, curteous and prompt. We have been using Flash Pool Service for our weekly pool maintenance for over three years and have recommended them to neighbors/friends. The proof of this - our pool always looks sparkling, and friends have commented on it! (Our weekly pool tech is Patrick).
Description of Work: Weekly pool maintenance; large and small pool repairs as needed such as pump, filter, polaris parts, waterfall feature, pool lights.
