Get matched with top swimming pool covers installers and replacers in Portola Valley, CA

"Sterling came out and installed a new RayPak Pool Heater for us earlier this month. We found them here on Angie's List and the reviews were positive so we went with them. Not disappointed. We have had a lot of work done in the last year and it's very rare to have the Job done right the first time without hassles.  They take pride in their work and the work they did was far superior to the folks that had originally installed our Polaris Pump. In fact, when I pointed out to them how badly the pump had been installed they took it upon themselves to re-install the old pump to the proper location and even re-pipe it correctly! Now that's good service! 
As for the installation that they did? Pretty much perfect. It's a great heater too. Very quiet and very powerful. If I want to pick nits, there were some surface scratches on the metal cabinet, but I was able to get them mostly off with Goo Gone. Otherwise, it was installed perfectly straight on a pedestal that they provided and it looks very professional. I would definitely use them again for anything Pool equipment related. They did my Sister's Pool Heater too, and she was very happy with them as well. 
Overall, I'd give them a 5 star rating. They carry top brand equipment at a fair price and the quality of work is well above par. If you are looking for someone who is responsible, and cares about the quality of their work and their reputation you have found them. I would not hesitate to recommend Sterling Pool.

"Price quote was much lower than others, reviews from others very good, and BBB check showed he is BBB member with no complaints. Work was performed on time, included jackhammering out old skimmer from pool deck, installation of new skimmer, patch concrete, cleanup and rebalance pool water. Very pleased with the results."

"They always do an excellent job for us."

"They did an excellent job. The only issue was that after starting to chip away at the old plaster, they called me and told me that my pool had been replastered before. Therefore it had 2 layers of old plaster. That meant more work to chip it all the way down to the gunite. That would cost $1,500 more! I had chosen PPP because of their low bid and good reviews on Angie's List. I was very upset. Jorge said that he could replaster without stripping down to the the gunite. I told him that other companies specified in their estimate and quot;strip down to the guniteand quot;. He agreed to drop the surcharge to $1,200.
Notwithstanding this, PPP were still cheaper and did a superb job.
My recommendation to others is to make the contractor be very specific as to his assumptions and state what are the incremental costs if these assumptions turn out to be incorrect.Jorge is a very pleasant man who is a pleasure to deal with.

"I bought a new home that had an older pool. I guess it sat empty for a few years so there were a number of issues. We knew we needed a resurface, but didn't understand the extent of the damage due to lack of maintenance of this pool. We called and got a quote. Everyone we worked with was very nice and helpful! The sales person told us what was needed and the job was done quickly. Our pool is beautiful and our backyard is no longer an embarrassment!!"

"The approximate cost was $1300. The guys were nice. But the paint job isn't holding up that well. From the wall were my alarm is when the wall gets touch the paint is coming off. I don't think they did do a primer. It's not holding up I can see were it needs to be touched up in hallway and the laundry room where they painted and same in the kitchen. They were kind of in a hurry so they didn't spend time on prep. That's the kind of comment I will make to future customer. It looks good but they don't do a lot of prep. There were areas that have to be touched up.  It's not even a full year yet. They kind of want to get in and out.  Initially he came in with a price. He verbally gave me quotes for each room and because I am a female. He went outside to his truck to come back with the final bill and it was 3 times than what he said for each room. I say to him I guess I have to give you a not so great review on Angie's List because the quote and the integrity of all that is part of why I use Angie's List. When I said that he called me back and said oh I'm so sorry I don't know what I was thinking. That wasn't the quote I wanted to give you. I am like oh my god if I hadn't said that this guy will be taking me to the cleaners. They were on time. They were professional."

"probably the best contractors i have ever had here. pool was resurfaced and re grouted in a timely manor. all workers were fast and very polite"

"Vince and his crew were wonderful ? friendly, professional, effective, efficient, and all at a very reasonable rate. Two huge trees were
heavily trimmed and shaped, one smaller tree reduced and reshaped, two very large hedges and assorted shrubs trimmed.  I plan on having Vince do an annual maintenance from now on.

The pool related tasks were of very high quality, but the concrete deck work was sub-par, including excessive cracking, poor color matching and poor quality sealing of concrete that resulted in a lot of white haze on the deck (my guess is that the sealer was drying before they applied it). 

It was very difficult to get hold of anyone who knew what was going on with respect to the schedule.  There was a lot of wasted weeks between activities with no apparent explanations.  Overall, frustrating to work with, though again, the quality of the pool work was great (tile, plaster, plumbing, new equipment install).
