Default Fiesta Pools

We had Fiesta install our pool and we are 100% satisfied. Great to work with!

Both T&D and All Seasons were talking long build times for our pool, even though we never actually got around to having a proper meeting with T&D, because we were not prepared to wait, so only talked to them on the phone.

Fiesta worked very hard long days and completed our large job in just 5 weeks and nothing was too much trouble for them.

Don't bother asking anyone else, just ask Fiesta, they will charge you a fair price and will do a good job.

T&D without any doubt. We've had three separate projects done by them (driveway extension, pool and concrete work done by the front door to replace plants). I can't say enough good things about their work. Sure you may wait a little while before they start, but it's for a good reason. They do great work and are in demand. If you want your job done quickly, go with another company, and then complain later about the quality of their work. Go with T&D and you won't be sorry.

For me, there's only one that does a superb job of design and construction--T&D Spa and Pool.

We've had several projects done by them. Without going into detail, they pride themselves on never having a dissatisfied customer. They've jumped thru some unbelievable hoops to accomplish that.

The big disadvantage is that they are so good, so much in demand, that it can take many weeks just to have them come out to create a proposal. They're worth the wait though because once you accept their proposal, they start the job and get it done in the time frame they quoted.

My neighbor got frustrated waiting for T&D to come out and make a proposal and hired another contractor who promised the moon. His spa addition project went on and on and on, far beyond the completion date that T&D roughly estimated.

Yes you do have to wait for T&D and we were not prepared to, so we went with Fiesta Pools and it was the best decision ever - hard working, excellent price and absolutely top standard work.

After seeing the mistakes that T&D made on our neighbors new pool recently, then it is obvious that we made the correct choice with choosing Fiesta Pool - I have never heard a single bad word about them, not one!

T&D built our pool that came with the house and we later hire them to put additions on the birdcage, build a 'spillover spa' and a summer kitchen.

They are a terrific contractor and a known for seldom having a dissatisfied customer. (I would say "never" but some people will never be satisfied!)

That's the good news. The bad news is that they are so good and so much in demand, that you may have to wait for a couple months for them to even get to you for an estimate. But their policy is, once they give a proposal and it is accepted, they will begin work right away.

All I can say is that they are worth the wait. My neighbor had a spa installed recently and wasn't willing to wait. The contractor he hired promised completion by a certain date. He missed it so badly, my neighbor told me he should have accepted my recommendation and hired T&D.

Yes, I would agree that most of the jobs that T&D do are good jobs, but NOT all - our neighbours had a series of problems with the work quality when they built his pool and yes they put them right - but they shouldn't have happened in the first place 👿👿
It also took them weeks and weeks and they didn't turn up every day and when they did, sometimes they were not there all day - very frustrating when you are eager to try your new pool 👿👿

None of that with Fiesta, they are very hard working, turn up every day and work long days, which is probably why they finish in the time they say they will and do a superb job as well.

FIESTA POOLS of OCALA every time - you will not be disappointed with either the work quality or the price (and no, I am not on commission, just believe in supporting genuine hard working people)

Another vote for T & D! When you sign the contract they give you a finish date, not start date. I had problem with my finish coming off my aluminum on my birdcage, my pool and cage are almost five years old. Randy from T & D came out, one week later it was all replaced. Can't beat that. Very good customer service and they back up there work. Wouldn't have anyone else install my pool.

I can't imagine anyone being better than T and D. We were both so impressed by every single thing they did in the most professional and organized way with extreme skill and experience. They must put in more pools than any company in the entire world. Think about it. They do all new pools for The Villages, and The Villages is the number one fastest growing place in the United States.

We were very pleased at the grading of the pool deck, no water laying about. They pour it and then chalk out any place that would have a slight pooling and fill it so that drainage is accomplished immediately. At our request they made the steps easier to climb as we get older. Flavio was our project manager and he is on the job seven days a week. Even driving by to check the project on weekends. We grew to know him and to respect and like him very much. Vera did the design and we can't say enough about her knowledge, professionalism, ability with design and just plain old fashioned niceness. Randy is the supervisor and was one of those there at the beginning of the company. Realistic, skilled, very experienced, hard working and extremely smart. The man knows the pool business.

Just like The Villages, they don't need to advertise, their customers do it for them. We are more than satisfied customers, we are huge fans of the company.
