We had a new pool built by Southland Pools and Spas, several years ago. The pool came out beautifully! We have enjoyed it many months throughout the year. Jim Ferries did a great job directing the installation of the pool . We love the end results! The Baja bench and mosaics are always complimented on. Our grandchildren love to visit and enjoy the pool!!

In late 2022 I started interviewing several pool contractors to build my pool and spa, During this process, I had the pleasure to meet with Jim. The other guys were just okay, but from the very start I sensed that Jim was very experienced and knew what he was talking about! The whole construction project with Jim and his company ran very smoothly - progress dates were kept and the quality of the finished pool, spa and patio was outstanding. We made a few changes mid-stream, but Jim was always right there to fold in the changes and in some cases was able to offer some better suggestions on how best to achieve the look and feel we wanted. Jim and his crew were highly professional, polite and delivered what was promised without any delays. I highly recommend Jim and his company Southland Pools and Spas.

Excellent personal interactions. Easy to talk to. Willing to educate those with limited knowledge about the process of and benefit s of phases and details of your project. Lots of experience and knowledge so you don’t need to know all the little details. Decide what you want, then relax. It will be better than you imagined . We love our newly remodeled pool!! Thanks Southland pools and Jim!!

We had a great experience with Southland Pools. Jim streamlined the whole pool process for us by handling everything from permits, payments, design, deadlines, equipment, expectations, construction and crew. The pool of our dreams was completed, as promised, with minimal inconvenience to our families daily routine. So glad we went with Jim!

Southland Pool & Spa‘s did a fantastic job on my new pool and spa. Jim stayed in constant communication with his crew and was always on top of the project progress. He is very knowledgeable and offered many great recommendations on the design and features that we should include, and we are so glad we took him up on his suggestions because the pool is absolutely beautiful and very functional.Jim completed the project on time and right on budget. From the initial permitting on through digging, plumbing, electrical, plaster and deck installation, everything ran smoothly. We have now enjoyed three seasons with the pool and our entire family could not be happier! I would highly recommend Jim and his company for any pool or spa needs.
