Pool Service

We have dealt with Jim Perkins and the Pool Craft staff for nearly 25 years. Over this period of time they have provided prompt, friendly and professional service for required maintenance,purchase and installation of both new and upgraded equipment as well as the opening and closing of our pool annually.
Geoff and the staff at the store are very knowledgeable and friendly.
Our long term relationship with Pool Craft is a testament to our satisfaction with their customer focused service. We certainly have no hesitation recommending them for either installation or servicing your pool.

Thanks Bob for the great review. You have been one of the longest serving customers at Pool Craft. Over the years as we have grown Jim has had to focus on our pool construction division and turn over the service side to others like myself. By taking over the service department for him I have got to know a lot of the original customers such as yourself. It has been a pleasure helping you over the years and it has been my focus to give all of you the same quality work and customer service that you have been accustomed to over the years from Jim. Thank you very much for the opportunity.

Pool, basketball court and landscaping

We had heard so many horror stories when thinking about putting in a pool. Thank goodness we were referred to Pool Craft. Not only were our reservations quelled, but we were provided with the most outstanding service. From the first day we met with Jason and John, we knew we had made the perfect decision in choosing Pool Craft. They are a company that provides the utmost professional service, and it is delivered with a smile and constant attention. We would highly recommend them for any job, big or small. Our back yard was turned into an oasis in the time promised and with the utmost perfection. Thank you Pool Craft.

To the Friedman family, it was a pleasure to deal with such great people. Your yard is truly amazing. We were so thrilled to have entered your pool in the Canada wide Art of Water contest. We received a BRONZE award which is proudly displayed in our office. Thank you for everything!!!!

Pool filter replacement and regular maintenance

We have been a client of Poolcraft for several years now and I would have to say that their service and knowledge is outstanding. Geoff and his in-store staff are very knowledgeable and congenial. Service staff are professional and have completed tasks in a timely manner and have always left my property as neat as it was before they arrived. While I do most of the day-to-day maintenance, a quick weekly visit to them for chemical checks guarantees that my pool water is always crystal clear.
I would highly recommend Poolcraft to anyone for anything to do with their pool.

Richard. I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to write a review for us. Actually you wrote two one on this site and another one on another site which is amazing. I have really gotten to know you over the past few years. This year especially. You were having problems with a green pool and followed all of our instructions to the letter. When we ruled out the chemistry aspect I had our service department go out and we determined your filter needed replacement. Without hesitation you gave us the go ahead to install a new filter. Green pools can be a very frustrating thing for pool owners and sometimes and the prospect of having replace a sand filter which is a big investment. I am very pleased that after the new filter installation your pool has been crystal clear and you got to enjoy it and not worry about it for the rest of the season. Thank you for relying on us and we were are always happy to see you when you stop in for your water testing and pool supplies. Thanks again for everything.

Assisted Review

An assisted review is collected by a contractor on behalf of the homeowner after their work is completed. The homeowner must confirm the text of the review and may make any changes she or he deems appropriate. The homeowner then assigns the contractor a review score out of 10. Assisted reviews receive the same scrutiny as other reviews and must follow our review guidelines.

I wanted to reach out and let you know how happy we are with the ‘almost final’ product and the customer love-experience we have enjoyed throughout the process. You, John and all of your partner companies – that have clearly been selected with a nod to friendliness and professionalism – are a rarity these days. It is not easy to get great customer service with one company or one product let alone multiple companies involved in a project on a scale like ours.

You have achieved a level of excellence with us and for that we are truly appreciative – your gift of the robot underlines your integrity and dedication to this goal…thanks.

We now have a backyard paradise that will be enjoyed by our family for years to come and one day add immense value to the resale of this home.

We have recommended you and your company to others already and will continue to do so – friends of friends are apparently giving Pool Craft the green light to get started as a matter of fact. We champion people/companies like yours so expect to see more business as a result of the exceptional work and relationship we experienced with you.

Congratulations on your hard work in building Pool Craft – you should be very proud my friend….you have made us very happy.

Best,
Pete & Lara N

Peter + Lara, you guys are awesome. You guys gave Pool Craft the opportunity to build something special in your yard and I can't thank you enough. We have received so many great comments on your yard for so many customers. We are so proud to showcase your yard. Your yard was recognized by our industry when we were fortunate enough to win a SILVER award in the Art of water contest which showcases the best pools across the country. Thanks again for everything!

Pool and Landscaping

Our project started in the fall of 2011 with the intention of opening our pool in time for the warm weather in 2012. We looked at several pool contractors to take a look at our project but Poolcraft rose above the rest. Immediately we were impressed with their professionalism, honesty, diligence, integrity, and experience. Our pool opened in late spring – just in time for us. It all happened so fast and were impressed with the Poolcraft team's work ethic, responsiveness, and dedication. Our backyard is beautiful and we will look forward to enjoying it for many years… thank you Poolcraft!
