They're not cheap, but who is? Seem to be fair-ish prices and they def know what they're doing when it comes to pool equipment repairs. They're a Pentair authorized shop, so if you're having issues with your Pentair equipment, start with them. They were out to replace a faulty light and we noticed a drip on one of the filter pipes and the guy offered to put a new gasket on for like $25, vs. charging me for a separate visit, which was good. read more

An excellent company to do business with. Quick, reliable, and dependable. They show up on time as they promise.

My experience with Brent's pool repair was Excellent! I called the company and spoke to the receptionist who was very pleasant and helpful. Brent arrived and serviced my Pentair pool equipment and was able to fix my issue. He was very knowledgeable and helpful and did a fantastic job servicing my pool equipment. He had all the tools and parts on his truck. Brent went the extra mile and checked everything that I had No idea how to troubleshoot on my own. He even made great suggestions on the care of my pool Equipment. I highly recommend Brent's Pool Repair for any issues you may have, because he services many different types of pool equipment. The value and quality of his work was outstanding! read more

Brent did a great job assessing the problem with our pool pump and installing a new motor for it. Responded promptly to calls and did the job on time and on budget. Brent is very knowledgeable on pool equipment and provided me with some good tips and recommendations on extending the life of our pool pump. I highly recommend Brent's Pool Repair. read more

Called today to question my bill. My service tech helped me with my repair in under 10 minutes, then I received a bill for $180! $30 part, no problem, but $150 for 10 minutes worth of work... doctors & attorneys don't even charge this much. Once I spoke to Athena she had a bad attitude to start & proceeded to tell me she was offended I questioned the bill. Furthermore, she told me to sell my house because I was questioning her bill. Insinuating I couldn't afford my bill. Reading the other reviews it's not surprising to see how I was treated. I was considering purchasing a newer system for App integration & I can tell you after speaking to this business they don't care for working with homeowners! read more

Had a leak on my equipment that our pool guy didn't want to mess with. My home warranty set an appointment with Bret's Pool Repair. Adam and McCoy came out today and fixed my issue. Both men were uber polite, respectful and kind. Thank you gentlemen for taking care of that leak on this super hot day. read more

************ BEWARE BAIT AND SWITCH************** As other reviewers have stated, Marlene is an absolute horror to deal with. If you think she's bad, try dealing with the insolent and condescending owner, Athena. A total feckless and unprofessional piece of work herself. BEWARE - They sell warranties that they do not honor - I purchased equipment as well as an extended warranty from this vendor and they refuse to honor their written agreement. This has forced me to file a complaint with the California State License Board, Better Business Bureau and my next step will be legal action. I would recommend anyone who reads this review to think twice before using this unscrupulous company. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED ***** UPDATE ***** Owner's response just proves my point. It has nothing to do with gender or misogyny, it has to do with intelligence and integrity, both of which Athena clearly lacks. The (ALL CAPS) WARRANTY was indeed sold by Brents and the attached photo of their own written invoice is proof. Furthermore Athena, the more you keep running your mouth, the more you continue to demonstrate how clueless you truly are with your ignorant and unknowledgeable responses. I look forward to seeing you, AND your big mouth in court!!! read more

Brent's Pool Repair - Bait and Switch Warranty that the vendor refuses to honor - Pool & Hot Tub Service Near Me

Best pool company in the area. If you want knowledgeable people, this is the company. I hired others to fix a pool controller problem and no one was able to do it. Even the manufacturer of the product recommended Brent's team to come and fix the issue. It's hard to find people who are able to troubleshoot and fix complex pool systems. They didn't hesitate to send additional experts when needed at no additional cost. I know work completed a few weeks back, but wanted to give some time to see if the issue returns and it didn't! I will definitely be saving your info for the future! read more

Very excited to have second service appt with this incredible company. One of few honest,reliable and professional service companies out there! Thank you for great customer service...will call again for all Pentair product needs!! read more

Just bought a new house and the pool was in bad shape. Brent and crew came in and fixed everything and saved us money over other bids. The pool is crystal clear and runs perfect. I'm sure it will save us on our energy bill as well. Thanks for the excellent service. We will for sure call you for all of our pool needs. read more

We were stuck with our spa draining and no understanding of why, Brent's pool repair came out within the day and found a small hairline fracture on our piping system, Replaced the parts and it's worked wonderful ever since! Update: 2022: Brent's pool repair has since replaced our lights that didn't work and also installed an amazing new heater that works amazing! Always efficient and on time!!! read more

Brent's Pool Repair was referred to me by my home warranty company for a second time. I must acknowledge their prompt responses to my pool issues. Athena returned my calls, and kept me abreast of the steps necessary in the repair/replacement of my equipment, and fully disclosed any out of pocket expenses I will incur that are not covered under my home warranty. Their additional fees were not inflated, but rather competitive and on par with what other companies would charge for the same work. Their team is knowledgeable, courteous, and are professional in their business dealings. I trust my pool to Brent's. read more

Brent's did a fantastic job of cleaning the scale off of our pool tile. I had questions and Brent came out to our home in person and even helped me understand some other plumbing questions I had about our water softener and water pressure regulator. I highly recommend this outstanding, efficient and professionally run company for your needs. read more

This is my second review, I had another problem with my pool equipment, water was shooting upward from a connection to the tank, Bret and Mike came out when I was not home, I left the gate unlocked, they came in and fixed the issue the same day! They sent me an invoice to pay on line. They will be my pool repair company for life, they are fast, friendly and affordable, you won't find a more affordable and professional company here in the valley. Thanks guys you deserve all the kudos! read more

We were having issues with our iAquaLink, it would not connect. It took several weeks to troubleshoot. It was solved by Adam, he is awesome and took the extra effort to locate and solve the problem. I highly recommend BPR. Thanks Adam! read more

Best home warranty service I have ever seen. Came out within 48 hours, diagnosed the faulty pool pump, and had it fixed within 3 hours. Mike, the tech was courteous, efficient, and went out of his way to get the parts to fix within the same day. This should make my point. I have never sent a gift back with a tech for the woman in the front office (apologies, forgot her name...Marlene?) for any service. I did with BPR! I wish they fixed moe then pools. read more

I've used Brent's a few times for pool repairs. They are always on time, do the work correctly, provide excellent invoices, and are very pleasant to work with. read more

The owner of Brent's Pool Repair has given permission for this review of her business. I bought a new home in Palm Springs in January 2019. With a week the pool pump broke. The American Home Shield warranty company sent me to Brent's Pool Repair. They worked with me to have the pump replaced. They recommended a "top of the line" Pentair pool pump that costs $1600. It cost more than what the house warranty would cover, but I believed in what the owner Athena Crabtree was telling me and that it would last 10 years. The company was courteous and cooperative. In fact they were such a good company to work with that when I needed a pool cleaning service in August they recommended their good friend Marvin Rodriguez of Marvin's Pool Cleaning Services. Later in September, I met with Marvin and we discussed upgrading the pool with a new skimmer basket, auto-fill valve, and pool light. Marvin it turned out did not know what he was doing and in the process of doing this work, broke the pool pump. I went back to Brent's pool repair to get them to help save my butt and to apologize for not going with them for the upgrade work in the first place. (Marvin was cheaper than Brent's PR so I went with Marvin.) This is where things get "funky." Marvin had contacted BPR before I contacted them and so BPR was eager to defend their friend and kept telling me right from the beginning "the work that Marvin did would not have damaged the pump." I thought that was a bit funny because the pump is brand new and has been working like a charm until Marvin started working on the pool. BPR owner, Athena set up a time to have someone go out and repair the pump. This work was done quickly and was under warranty. However, no one has been able to tell me what actually went wrong with the pump. Athena keep saying "normal wear and tear." I have never bought a $1600 piece of equipment to find it break 8 months later, esp right after someone has been mucking with the plumbing of the pool. I began to question if BPR actually installed a new pool pump or a refurbished one. Does BPR install refurbished pumps to only make money off fixing them under warranty? Why is it breaking so quickly? A call to Pentair is coming to find out and report BPR if necessary. So I told Athena that I will take my pump warranty and if I need anyone else in the future I will work with another pool repair company. BPR comes across as shady, not willing to tell the whole truth -- just like others on here have said. I still have yet to know what broke in the pump. They will not disclose this. This prompted the first e-mail you see uploaded here. I guess a customer service call is annoying to Athena of BPR , esp when it deals with their friends, i.e Marvin , damaging expensive pool equipment. My calls to BPR were now deemed "therapists calls" where I could "bitch, and moan, and ramble." I actually though BPR was saving my butt from this Marvin R. who destroyed my property. And BPR did fix the pump from the damage Marvin caused it, which I appreciated. I was simply taken aback from the long rambling tirade from Athena. After I read the first e-mail I e-mailed back questioning if this is the professional way BPR treats all of their customers? The replay I got back was that I was a "supreme lunatic" and to "eat a shit sandwich." Read for yourself. Athena's e-mail does more for this business review then I could ever write. Does this business value and respect customers? - the owner's e-mail speaks for itself. I do not have to write anything else. If you use this business be warned that this is who you are going to get when you call on the phone. Owner, Athena is a good spokesperson for why you should avoid this company. There are so many other companies out there where respect is actually a real thing. Stay away. read more

See all

Excellent service and repairs. Office staff is super friendly and nice to work with. All repair technicians professional and on time. Great company to do business with. read more

Attempted to call them 7 times and never was able to get someone to answer the phone. Getting a call back was difficult. Once manufacture diagnosed issue with their engineer, Brent's Pool repair was supposed to come replace part on an $5k unit. Instead they came and changed some settings and told me everything was fine. Issue persisted and company lied to manufacture about when they came out to my house. They didn't have the HVAC experience to perform the repair in the first place. Tech was argumentative and rude too. Very disappointed and hope others receive better service. I would not recommend to a friend. read more

Use anybody but Brent. Period. I had brents pool repair out to work on my pool heater because they had totally rebuilt it 2 years ago. The Tech came out and replaced 2 parts and said the problem was fixed. It was not fixed. It took them another week to come back. The owner said he needed payment for the last service call before he would work on it again. I said " why would i pay for the last stuff when the heater was not fixed yet. He is the most unprofessional service provider i have ever dealt with. I paid his bill and then proceeded to hire another company to remove the Jandy heater and install a new $4200.00 Pentair heater. It works great. No thanks to Brent. read more

Talk about great Customer Service. Brent's Pool Service was able to come out a day early on a Holiday weekend and complete the repair as promised. The repair tech was Adam and he wasted no time and delivered repair and price as discussed! Marlene from the office provided explanation of service and all charges! We are throughly satisfied and will highly recommend their services to all of our friends. read more

Fantastic company - went over and above to help me as a customer and Adam especially. Highly Recommend - Thanks!!! Nick - Montage / Indio read more

A big shout out of Thanks to Mike, Adam, Marlene and the whole team at Brents Pool Repair!

I can't say enough about their outstanding service , they truly went above and beyond! I highly recommend them for your pool equipment repair needs. A+ company! -Ceci read more

Brent and his company are 1st class. I have been using their services for about 6 years now over 2 homes I have owned. They have always been very good, fair priced and very honest. That's a rarity here in the desert I've found. I just upgraded my current pool system to a wireless system, replaced the pump with a variable speed one & added a salt water cell too. I also had to do some repairs to loose tile/grout, etc. They were always there when scheduled and helped with training me on how to use and set up the automation features. I give them a 2-thumbs up! Also, I am the owner of a home inspection company and Brent's is the only pool repair company that I trust to refer to my clients if they ask for a referral. read more

DO NOT USE THIS POOL COMPANY for your home warranty work. They incorrectly diagnosed a pool filter as just being "noisy", when in fact it is a bad bearing in the motor where the only way to repair it was to replace the motor. Thus, the home warranty declined to repair or replace on the basis that complaints about "noise" was not covered under the warranty. read more

This home is our second home and our normal pool service let us know that our pump had gone out. Within a day of us having our pump "go out", Marlene at Brent's Pool Repair had a team member at our home, repaired the pump, and gave us the all clear that everything was fixed. As a remote home owner, I am very appreciative of the professionalism, the speed of response, and the follow-through that Brent's Pool Repair provided. I would us them again and recommend them easily to friends. read more

Brents pool repair was awesome!! They came out and did a service and Michael was so nice and polite and helpful! The only drawback is that they're so good that everybody wants them so it might be a bit of a wait, but Marlean was very kind to try to squeeze me in for emergency situation. I highly recommend them read more

Marlene was a nightmare to work with. I had opened up a service request with Fidelity regarding a salt water cell issue. A tech came out and said I would require a new salt water cell. Brent's said this was under warranty and so they cancelled my service request with Fidelity and submitted the warrant. Since I was not the original owner the warranty was denied and now I have to pay another service fee, but the way I was treated on the phone by Marlene was very harassed, she made it sound like it was my fault, I didn't close the service request, she did. Terrible customer service. Just a quick response to the update by the owner. According to Fidelity they cancelled the service request and they were told by Brent's pools this was a pre-existing condition. How would Brent's pools know it was a pre-existing condition? Why would they put that in their notes to Fidelity? Also, I have now received 3 different comments from this woman cussing me out for my post - This is harassment and I plan on reporting this.

We had a very good experience with this company- Rick came out to service our pool heater. He took the time to make sure that everything was working well before he left. We were impressed with this company. The gals that make the appointment were very professional as was Rick. We will be using them again in the future. Steve W read more

Good company to work with. They keep you posted about the schedule, when they are arriving, and follow up to make sure everything went OK. I have requested Adam as he has ALWAYS been very helpful. read more

UPDATED REVIEW AFTER SPEAKING WITH OWNER: This company was sent by Pentair for warranty repair on our Pentair pool pump. Both technicians that came out told us immediately that there was not a problem (Pentair already confirmed there was a problem over the phone), even though our pump was vibrating, and then making a squeeling noise after they replaced it the first time. (Sidenote: I was even nice enough to tip the first tech $20). 2nd techs explanation for the squealing was "it's a pool pump", however reluctantly said they'd order another one. What really was disappointing and upsetting, causing us to write this review, was after changing the motor the 2nd time, he started walking away and I asked him if he could stay to make sure there was no unusual noises this time. Instead, he told me "if you are going to be so sensitive about noises, there is nothing I can do, there was nothing wrong with the other motors... you are just wasting good motors" and left quickly without testing or checking that the issue was resolved. This time the motor didn't need to be changed again anyhow, as the pump worked as it should. Sadly, it was in fact leaking since he didn't check it, and our pump wouldn't stop priming since he didn't secure one of the pipes correctly, which we had to fix ourselves. Yes Brent, it was actually leaking, not just wet, as you alluded to. Luckily we are handy and fixed it. Spoke to owner Brent -- he says some people can't be pleased (apparently that's us), and agreed with the techs comments. He said his company does not provide white glove service, that these are construction type workers. I don't think we are asking for white glove service, just some basic customer service skills, and a pump motor that doesn't vibrate or squeal. read more

Never fixed the leak like they said they did behind the filter .. was still leaking after they left .. never fixed the spa draining .. came back twice because they didn't have the part to fix the check valve on the first visit .. so technically 1 very short service call .. never stayed to wait and see if the problem was fixed when they installed the check valve after being asked to stay .. poor customer service .. read more

Years ago our Home Warranty company sent out Brent's Pool Repair for a pool repair issue we had. We were very pleased at the first visit and always request their services when needing pool repairs. There customer service is fabulous starting with Marlene in the front office. She is an assist to the company with her awesome personal and ability to always make you feel like your their only customer. She always returns phone calls within 24 hrs and always gets your appt scheduled around your time, squeezing you in where possible. The technician Adam who came out was very knowledgeable, efficient and able to diagnosed our problem and did all the repairs within 1/2 hour. He then took the time to then explain what repairs he had completed. Highly recommend Brent's Pool Repairs as they go above and beyond to make it right. Million thanks!!!! Until next time.

Brent's pool repair is a family-ran business, and they do their jobs very well! They are the pool experts and have been in the industry for years.

Did not have a good experience with this company. The original issue we hired them to fix, they never fixed, after two weeks, and a bill, they gave us the number of someone else to call to fix our pool. Tried to talk to the owner about it, and that went no where, he sent oner a new bill, with a $10 off, which was insulting. read more
