J. Bradley not only achieved, but FAR exceeded our expectations for our new pool. From the first meeting to the last, they were responsive, attentive and patient with our requests and questions. Joe and his team came highly recommended by a friend, and they did not disappoint!
Cory did a phenomenal job designing our dream pool, as well as explaining the process thoroughly and setting up a reasonable time frame for the project completion.
Mike and Colby were great project managers and were very thorough, on top of next steps, and easy to reach if needed.
Each individual crew was amazing! The level of craftsmanship was unbelievable and they made the process as painless as possible by keeping the yard clean and tidy.
James did a great job teaching us about the pool and making sure all equipment worked properly for the start up. We feel like our backyard was transformed into a resort. We are so appreciative to everyone involved for their hard work, attention to detail and great customer service. Thank you for giving us our dream yard and pool!! Were looking forward to making lots of memories!

We are extremely happy with the beautiful backyard oasis Joe and his crew with J. Bradley Custom Pools built. From the setting of our travertine flooring to our kitchen remodel, Joe's crew were top notch and skilled with their crafts. The whole process came together efficiently, with a pool that is breathtaking. We would recommend J. Bradley Custom Pools every time! Ask for Cory! From the first day, Cory took care and was attentive. Cory's pool design ideas, professional insight, and vision from the start were spot on to what we hoped for in our pool. Joe has a great team! It shows in the end result. Thank you, J. Bradley Custom Pools, for your care and attention to detail every step of the way!

This was, without a doubt, the best customer service I (we) have ever received. It started with the salesperson - Cory - who possesses the number one skill for a business development professional - he is an outstanding listener. Hence, he was able to transform our vision for the pool into an even better reality. Daniel - the Project Manager - further raised our opinion of the firm, with his clear commitment to excellence and he always kept us informed of the timetable of each stage of construction. Additionally, he never failed to answer a call in a timely manner. Finally, the crews J Bradley employs

Added a * because we're done and happy with the final results. It took an exhausting 6 months to complete the project, but they did end up fixing every mistake and owned up to their shortcomings and "growing pains". Original review: September 21
Not sure if this review will go through but here we go. We are in week 17 of what was promised as a 8-10 weeks custom pool construction. Joe has barely communicated with us after the first month and all promises fell short after the first month. They ruined my drainage and irrigation on both sides of my house, promised to fix them, and

Joe was patient with us during the design phase, unlike other pool builders we had met with. The end result was the pool we dreamed of at a price that made sense for us. Joe was alway on the spot during construction in case some issue needed to be resolved. My son is in the pool almost every day for 2-4 hours and his swimming has improved greatly. I also happen to enjoy our new outdoor kitchen with the awesome Bull BBQ Grill! Thanks, Joe!
