Stay away fro Modern Pools
 

We hired a pool contractor two years ago (H & M). They dug a hole, poured concrete, and then disappeared. They left about 40 Villagers in the same position. Modern Pools came by and said they were taking over all of the H & M projects. We agreed to use them and it has been a nightmare since. They would have a contractor come in and do one thing and then it would be months before we saw anyone again. They rarely answer or return calls, emails, and texts. It is now two years since the start of this project and we still have a cement hole in the ground with some tiles on top and some pipes in the ground. We have heard that the owner also owns Staycations so I would avoid them as well. Many of the others who are using this company have experienced the same frustrations and we have reached out to Crimes Against Seniors, the department that issues permits, and the Attorney General. It looks like lawsuits are coming from many of us. Good luck with your search for a reputable company

We were lucky, we caught T&D at a good time. T&D is very tight with the developer and builds pools for them. We had our pool built during a lull when the building between 466A and 44 was just about complete and nothing had started south of 44. I can only imagine the wait list for aftermarket pools with T&D now?

T & D Pools. Yes they are not the cheapest, yes they are about a year out on designs and 18 months out on construction however, peace of mind that they do everything themselves and they finish within 3 months. Any questions or problems are addressed immediately. Never had an issue during construction that wasn’t explained or fixed more than a day later.

Have friends and neighbors that have used other companies and have problems, delays and done extensive. Have a neighbor who started their pool 1 year to the month before we did, pool is still nowhere near complete and we have been swimming for the past 2 months. You are spending a significant amount of money, if you go with the lowest bidder or quickest build you will regret it.

T & D has started a new service division however, the have a wait list and are currently only taking customers on pools they built. Once they get a larger staff they will open up to anyone looking for service.

Interesting, their non-compete clause must have run out after they sold their prior service operation to Patriot Pools. Wondering why they are getting back into a business line they already had established and sold off?

Pool Companies
 

We used Sparkling Waters Pools. We signed our contract in June of 2021, and the hole was dug in August. Our build was complete (almost) in August of 2022. The process was painful, for us and our sweet neighbors. The finished product is beautiful, and we love it. I could not, in good conscience, recommend them.

Pool Build
 

We used Blue Moon, great work, but will take longer then T&D, ours took about 5 months, but 40k cheaper then T&D, and many more options.We have many people walking by telling of horror stories of pools being built, that are taking 18 plus months to build. Do your research, ask many questions, good luck.

Aovid Sparkling Waters like the plague! We signed a contract on November 2021. We terminated our contract in November 2022 after the work failed to pass the county inspection. This was when the work wasn't even half done. We proceeded to hire Blue Moon in November 2022 to fix all the problems, carve out sections of the shell to determine if the shell had structural integrity, and get to finishing the project with reinstalling the waterfall feature, insuring two entry/exit areas, providing for four moderate steps isntead of three giant steps (and the list goes on and on). While I trust Blue Moon, I am not happy with the slow progress. We were promised a completed project by the end of March 2023 so our landscaper could start his work in April. Now we are told that subcontractors for the birdcage aren't responding to Blue Moon so who knows when we will wrap up this nightmare.

T & D Pool Construction
 

T & D is a one call construction company. We hired them 19 years ago. Never regretted our decision to do our pool job. They take care of every part of the job. No subcontractors.

Responsive to calls for service. I an sure they are busy, hence the pool will not be completed in a couple of weeks. However, they are worth the wait.

A neighbor had a pool done. Every phase was done by a subcontractor. Not desirable.

Wish you luck in your search.

I need a recommendation for a Pool cleaning service.

Know many people with pools who go to their neighborhood pool, because there's no one to talk to in their home pool. Good luck.

Not talking to people is the number one benefit!

That's why we have our own pool. Can sit outside and read.

How is your experience going with Fiesta if you can update.

Thx

Fiesta pools
 

They did our pool a few years ago, smaller company, waited about 6months to start, called us the night before that date to let us know they would be there the next day, we were swimming in less than 8 weeks, very happy with them. Family owned.
