I had an excellent experience with Sonoran Waters Custom Pool & Spa. They were very accepting of my special request and even while the pool was in progress, they were accommodating to some changes. They have great designing ideas and we meshed their ideas with ours. I have had realtors in my house who have taken their phone number because they were so impressed with our pool. Last but not least, the cleaning system they designed is amazing. We never have to clean our pool. They put in just the right amount of cleaning bubblers to clean every corner of the pool. I highly recommend them.

Sonoran Waters has been our Pool Service company in Scottsdale for years. Best prices in town, great maintenance, very reliable and super knowledgeable. I've tried many pool cleaning companies, and Sonoran is BY FAR the best. Our pool is very clean and well kept. Our pool guy Cliff is amazing, professional and loves our dog, which used to bark non-stop at our other pool guys. Cliff usually brings a treat and now our dog loves to see him. They will also be doing our Pool remodeling very soon. Highly recommend.

All our salesman talked about was all their projects that were soooo much bigger than ours. Completely made us feel like we were wasting their time! If youre looking for a good, responsive
