Get matched with top swimming pool remodelers in San Gabriel, CA

"After 20 years our pool and equipment were in dire need of rehabilitation. Our pool pump and filter went out in the same week, and we knew it was going to be expensive, so we decided to have the pool redone at the same time it desperately needed it. We had several contractors out to give us a bid, and Sanchez pools were the most punctual, professional, and honest of all the contractors we had out to the house. Thinking I would save myself a few bucks, we gave Sanchez Pools the remodel of the pool and I decided I would piecemeal the pool equipment from Craigslist. I found and bought a new pump, filter, found a cheap installer, and thought I was all set. To keep this short-winded I'll skip the bulk of the drama that unfolded and fast forward a bit. The Craigslist effort turned into a total nightmare. I ended up paying thousands and a month later the pool equipment was still not installed or functioning properly. Granted Sanchez pools were on top of the pool remodel, they were just about done, and I still don't have functioning pool equipment. I swallowed my pride, called Sanchez Pools, and told them what I had done after not giving them the work in the first place. Rather than getting the "I told you So" Kim showed up the same day, gave me a quote to replace all the equipment (for the 2nd time in 30 days) I gave her the go-ahead, and at this point the pool is complete and the new plaster is waiting for water (not recommended) Granted, I was not on the schedule, and equipment is tough to get a hold of now for the entire construction industry. Plaster needs water soon after installation, so I made my problem Kimâ s problem. She could have taken a shot at me, and I deserved it, but instead she jumped into action. Within 48 hours all new equipment was installed, Filter, Pump motor, heater, and all the wiring/plumbing that goes with it, the pool was now filling with water, and I was the lucky guy that got to pay twice for equipment and installation. Had I just let Sanchez Pools do their thing in the first place it would have saved a ton of time, energy, headaches, and cash. The team at Sanchez Pools are thoughtful, considerate, punctual, knowledgeable, professional, reasonable, and all this in a market where you can cherry-pick your customers, charge a premium, and don't need to deal with major nightmare customers like ME. First, I would like to say thank you to Kim and the whole team at Sanchez Pools. You really went above and beyond the call of duty. We were so fortunate to have you on our job. It could have gone bad a dozen different ways, but you guys are just a class act period. My advice while scrolling through potential contractors to choose for your pool project. I've already done the legwork, had 5 bids, tried to save a few bucks by piecemealing the project, and at the end of the day, I could have had it ALL done in one single call and saved thousands. Call the folks at Sanchez Pools, and rest easy knowing you are in good hands. I would like to add that they are not friends/family, nor they did not ask me to write a review they just earned it, plain and simple."

"I started losing about 1" of water per day in my pool. A leak detection company identified the leak coming from a crack in the bottom step into the pool. Since the leak detection company does not do repairs, I found Aqua Care on Angie's List. Raul was able to swing by the same day and he suggested he could try to patch the leak with epoxy. If that didn't work the alternative would be to rebuild the steps which at which point I would likely want to replaster the entire pool because the plaster wouldn't match again and it would look terrible. Fortunately the epoxy seems to be working for now and the leak has stopped (which is a huge sigh of relief because I was getting really nervous about having all of the water leaking underground). After reading other reviews on AL and my own experience with Aqua Care (Raul was very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable and his wife was the same when I talked to her on the phone to schedule them to come out) I would definitely choose them to remodel my pool when I am ready to do that. The fact that they combine landscaping with pool construction makes them a very attractive option."

"I hired Scott to fix our pool heater. He is very honest and charged me a very reasonable rate to replace the circuit board. He was also able to get our solar heater working again and helped troubleshoot an issue with our dirty pool filter. Highly recommended!"
