Report
We have been a customer for about ten years and have only received excellent service. Previously, we tried five or six different companies and we were never satisfied. Ken is true professional!

Report
I contacted Ken after my previous pool technician damaged the pump to my saltwater pool. Ken was professional, I didn't hear any negativity in regards to the damage, he was positive, and gracious to be of service. Ken was patient to provide information for the most cost effective solution to restore the pool back into use quickly. The pump was replaced with a brand new energy efficient pump, and within one month our electric bill decreased by $300. He now cleans my pool per his recommendation schedule. It is great for our community to do business locally, and specifically the Owner. He is honest
