We just finished a complete renovation of our pool with Oscar's Pool Service, and I can honestly…read moresay it was one of the best decisions we've made as homeowners. When we bought our house three years ago, we knew the pool needed to be redone. Unfortunately, because of other major repairs, we had to wait. Our house was a flip, and whoever patched up the pool before us did a quick, cosmetic job that started falling apart within months. The plaster came off in sheets, the 1960s tile was covered in decades of calcium buildup, the coping was old red brick with mortar literally crumbling out, and some jets and plumbing didn't even work. The pool was technically swimmable, but it was depressing to look at. This summer our weekly pool cleaner told us the plaster was about to fail completely, so we started calling around for estimates. Most of the big corporate companies gave us inflated quotes and made us feel like just another job number. A trusted friend recommended Oscar's, so we checked Yelp, saw all the great reviews, and gave him a call. Oscar came out immediately, took careful measurements, walked us through every detail, and his knowledge and professionalism instantly won our trust. From there, the process moved quickly. Within a week of signing, his crew demoed the entire pool in just a few hours. We got to choose tile from several suppliers and ended up with a beautiful pebble mosaic that matched our house. At first, we thought we'd keep the old red brick coping, but at the last minute we switched to a modern dark gray brick. Best decision ever! It completely transformed the look of our backyard. As often happens with older homes, surprises came up: our original 1964 gas and electrical lines were corroded and had to be replaced. Oscar handled everything--brought in trusted contractors, coordinated the work, and saved us the headache of dealing with multiple companies. While we were at it, we upgraded our equipment to a top-of-the-line Jandy system with Wi-Fi controls, plus added a heater and automatic pool filler. Yes, the budget went up, but every upgrade was worth it. Watching the transformation was amazing. Once the new tile, coping, and plaster went in, it felt like we had a brand-new pool built from scratch. The white plaster makes the water sparkle, the equipment runs quietly and efficiently, and with the heater and lights, we can swim comfortably day or night, year-round. Beyond the work itself, what made the experience so special was Oscar and his family. He's personable, honest, hardworking, and clearly cares about his craft. His crew was professional, respectful, and fast. By the end, it felt like we weren't just hiring a contractor--we were working with people who truly cared about making our home better. Now every time we step into our backyard, we can't believe the difference. What was once an eyesore is now the centerpiece of our home, and we're enjoying it constantly. If you need pool renovation, plaster, tile, coping, or even just reliable weekly service in the San Fernando Valley--call Oscar's. He's the best! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3DKKSP_c4UY

One of the things that truly stands out is how quickly he handles emergencies, even outside of the regular service schedule. Recently, I had an urgent issue with my pool, and Justin immediately arranged for one of his service technicians to come out. The technician arrived at my house in less than 30 minutes and resolved the problem quickly and efficiently. That level of responsiveness and customer service is very rare these days. If you are looking for a pool company that genuinely cares about its customers and takes problems seriously, I highly recommend Justin and his team.

The original timeline was four weeks from start to finish, and the project was completed just one week later due to a few additions we requested, including a new auto-fill system, Baja deck, drain lines, and electrical work. Ted also has excellent resources for selecting pavers and tile. Alfredo's crew is hardworking, detail-oriented, and takes great pride in their work. We highly recommend Ted and his team.

It was a complete disaster. I began with the experts at Leslie pools, they were unable to help. We then hired another pool service, they were unable to keep the water from turning green with algae. Luckily for me, I found JS Pool Service. Jose and his team quickly and efficiently resolved my issue. The prices are very fair, and the service is excellent. Since Jose has been doing my pool I have had absolutely no issues. The pool has never looked better. When Covid came along, Jose and his team arrived fully compliant with masks on. They could not have been more respectful of the distance when I happened to be seated outside with my father. I know there are many pool services to choose from, but what I can say is that JS Pool Services are truly fantastic. They are experts at their craft, and beyond that they are really nice people too!

They really listened to what we wanted, communicated clearly at every step, and made sure the final result turned out exactly as we expected. It's clear they take a lot of pride in their work and care about getting the details right. We're extremely happy with how our pool turned out and have already recommended them to several friends who are planning pool work of their own. We wouldn't hesitate to work with them again.

My old pool guy wasn't maintaining the pool properly, and it got to a point where it was no longer usable. Castro Pool came in and completely turned things around. They took the time to properly assess the condition, reset the system, and get everything back on track. Within a short time, the pool went from looking rough to being in amazing, crystal-clear condition again. What really stood out was their professionalism, consistency, and attention to detail. You can tell they actually care about the quality of their work and keeping the pool in top shape--not just doing a quick pass and leaving. If you're dealing with pool issues or just want reliable service, I highly recommend Castro Pool. They brought my pool back to life.

I would never recommend this pool company or the individual who came out to my property. From the…read morevery start, he tried to upsell me on an estimate from another company--asking me to pay him the difference directly while claiming he could do the job himself. The work in question was mostly masonry repair for a pool crack, but it became clear very quickly that he was neither knowledgeable nor reliable. He constantly showed up late (when he showed up at all), invaded my privacy by looking up my personal profile on Facebook, and then lied about it by saying that I had looked him up. Completely unprofessional behavior. On top of that, he tried to charge $2,500 upfront before any work was completed, and then demanded another $2,500 after the supposed "completion"--even though he left the pool completely empty, which every real contractor knows can cause serious structural damage and new cracks. That alone could have cost me thousands. To be safe, I brought in a licensed masonry and construction contractor for a second opinion, and he confirmed what I already suspected: this guy didn't know what he was doing and was simply trying to take advantage of us. His exact words were that the original person I hired was "an idiot" just trying to take us for a ride. Save yourself the stress, money, and potential damage to your property--go with a licensed, experienced contractor who knows pools and masonry. This person is not trustworthy, not knowledgeable, and not worth your time.
