Get matched with top swimming pool opening & closing service pros in Waukegan, IL

"The absolute worst! These guys "opened" my pool. PJ, the owner and an employee were on site. I had to spend two hours helping them because they couldn't figure out how to attach the railings and diving board. They didn't vacuum! They didn't even attempt to balance the chemistry. They didn't turn on the heater, unless you count pressing the on button. It was not working, and needed repairs which I wound up doing myself, they didn't bother to check it, at all. Worst of all, they failed to tighten the bolts on the diving board, and as a result one of my kid's friends got injured when the board went sideways. Stay away. Literally, anyone else is a better choice."

"This guy is a fraud. He has about 5 reviews two of them were from his son and wife who gave him a score of 5/5 without any comments. He came and installed two main drains and caused damage to the piping by the equipment. Folded the winter cover wrong and was told to repair the damage he caused and to redo the cover. He promised he will after he got the money and ran away. I called more than 20 times, left voice and text messages and he won't care to respond. After 2 months he said he won't day any more needed repairs because he thinks I won't pay him which is a lie. I never negotiated his price and paid him immediately without delay."

"Unreliable and unresponsive. After two months of empty promises, unanswered phone calls and cheap excuses we've decided to cancel our install and get our deposit back. This guy does not know how to run a business. "

"I needed someone to close my pool as an injury prevented me from doing the job myself. William (company owner) responded within 10 minutes of me requesting the service on Angi. We chatted about the pool, I sent him a couple pics of the pool and mechanicals. He provided a very fair quote right away. Based on his timeliness and professionalism, we scheduled the job. William and his crew arrived on time the next day and got right to work. Efficient, professional, and friendly. He knocked on the door to ask any questions he had during the closing. Start to finish, he and his crew had the pool drained, lines cleared, plumbing winterized and covers in place - all in about 90 minutes. Would have taken me all day! Responsive, professional, fairly priced, courteous - You can't ask for anything more from this service provider. BIG thumbs up for The Dolphins Pool Service!!!"

"They did a great job painting my pool. On time, let me know timeframes but texting me. Chris is nice and amazing. Great company for your pool, there are a lot of bad pool companies. They are professional and honest!"

"After failing to find a reliable pool service, I finally found one. Needed a pool installed. Had 2 other companies commit to the job. Neither one completed the job, bailed and never returned my calls. The crew at pools and liners plus saved the day. Not only did they take over the job without hesitation, but they also completed the job in record time and during a record natural disaster on top of it! Dian and his crew are the best. The communication is top notch. I felt like I was their only customer during the job as they kept in constant communication during the entire job. I have no negative feedback at all. Thank you again for a flawless job and look forward to doing business in the future!!"

"They came and put in extensions on the gutters. One was very poorly installed."

"Nate was awesome to work with. We changed many of things with a large deck project that included a custom pergola with lighting and he was very helpful in letting us make design choices while providing insight into what would work and what would look great as well. His team was professional and highly skilled, especially his foreman, Buckleman! This is the second time our family has used the Deck Company and would recommend them to anyone!"

"They did an excellent job!"
