I have used Butch's Pool Service several times over the years. The last time I needed to replace an intake pipe for my filter canister. He is very reliable, honest and responds in a timely manner. Prices are very reasonable and the work is competent. I would not hesitate to use his services again. read more

Not honest people... They told me I would need a computer board for my heater maybe 2 and said they would cost 800-900 each. On Amazon they were only between 90 to 95 when I told them that they declined the job because they wanted to rip me off. Beware who you hire. There's a bunch of crooks out here.... Definitely do your homework! read more

Butch's Pool & Spa Repair - The conversation - Pool & Hot Tub Service Near Me - Hesperia, California

See all

I was reading my review, and I cannot believe it has been since 2014 that I used Butch for the first time. But my only fear is he retires... I should not be surprised how fast he fixes issues or gives great advise. Hopefully this update does not remove my first review from 2014 but again if your pool hates you like most of ours do, call Butch, his wife gets back to you quickly. Thank you again for the great work and removing the stress from owning a pool. read more

Butch has been out twice in about 7 years for different things. Speaking to the answering service, I assume his wife, is a pleasure. Response is prompt and thoughtful, and so is he. He was able to do what he needed to do on the spot for a reasonable price and event went above and beyond what I wanted him to look at. Only reason I would give maybe 4.75 stars instead of 5 is it's cash or check only. I get some people won't do electronic payments, but it would certainly be more convenient as we write fewer and fewer checks and carry less and less cash. However, that's simply constructive criticism as the company is easy to work with and does great work for a reasonable fee. read more

Amazing customer service provided by Caroline and Butch. I scheduled an appointment because my pool was turning green and all my troubleshooting didn't work. I was seen within a day and after my pool was looked at it was determined that I needed a new pump. The pump was put in a few days later at a reasonable price. Butch even gave me some tips to calm the algae in my pool which worked tremendously. My pool is looking way better now , I will never go to anyone else now for my pool repairs . I received a call a few days after my pump was put in from Caroline letting me know that I qualify for a rebate on my pump... I've never had a company call me to let me know of cash back offers !! Thank you for all your help !! read more

Butch and Caroline are a breath of fresh air. They are personable, efficient, on time and know what they are doing. I hate to bash the rest of the contractors I have dealt with in the past, but I will say I will never go back. I love Butch and Caroline and my pool has never looked better. My husband and I both agree... Butch is our pool man!!!!! Thanks you two for providing exceptional customer service- you are appreciated!!!!! :) read more

I had a cracked part causing my pump to leak badly. I needed someone to come out ASAP to fix the issue. I sent a request through Yelp, along with pictures of the damage. Caroline called me back promptly and discussed the issue with me. As we were waiting for the part to come in, she kept me informed, even saving an open slot for me in case the part came in sooner. She was awesome! What a great experience having Butch come out to repair my Pentair pump issue! He arrived early for the appointment, was extremely nice, and fixed the pump perfectly. Butch was kind enough to share some knowledge with me to make sure that my system works to it's highest potential. There are no more leaks and the pool is ready to swim again! Thank you Butch! read more

When Butch left our house this morning my husband said to me "Well, we found our pool guy." He came out to diagnose and hopefully fix a heater issue. Turns out the heater was fine and it was an issue with the filter not getting adequate water to the heater. I just wonder how many dishonest repair guys would have made up an issue and sold us parts and labor we did not need. He told my husband a work-around so the heater will function until we can get the correct filter. Also, his wife who I spoke with on the phone to schedule the visit was super nice, very helpful, and informative. Thank you Mr. & Mrs. Butch! read more

Incorrect, my issue was with the warranty work you provided. When you were called out to replace the salt water system you had to cut and install new unions on the new system. The failure was caused by the new unions you installed leaking, Nothing to do with the home warranty. Where you called out because of a home warranty claim to begin with yes. However your workmanship ship while installing the new system is what caused the future failure in the system. Telling me its not you prob call the home warranty is just trying to pass the buck to them instead of standing behind your work. read more

I would definitely recommend Butch's for your pool and spa needs. First off, Caroline was an absolute pleasure to work with on the phone. Butch arrived well within the quoted time given. He was able to identify the issue with our spa immediately. Butch was able to get the spa back up and running in less than an hour. If needing to work on our spa in the future, Butch's will be my fist call. read more

Loved using Butch's.... Answered the phone great, scheduled quick, super polite, showed up early, gave us economical options. So glad to find a good vendor. read more

They are rock stars! Job was done in two hours!!! New pool pump! Pool on mend!!!! Thank you ,you are awesome! read more

Butch's Pool & Spa Repair - This is my problem child.....changed motor...not it ..pool is green.help...upgrade or save .?help needed in a.v.. - Pool & Hot Tub Service Near Me - Hesperia, California

I have used Butch's Pool & Spa Service in the past and I am very pleased with their service and quality repairs. Today I replaced my Pentair filter canister that had failed after 12 years. I scheduled an appointment and Butch arrived early to start work with all the necessary parts in hand. He had my filter canister replaced within an hour and my pool was back in service for the Summer. Butch is very reliable and knowledgeable about all aspects of pool maintenance and repair. His prices for parts and labor are very competitive and always guaranteed. He is the best in the business in the high desert and I will never use anyone else to repair/replace my pool equipment! read more

I cannot say enough good things about this company! Honest and reliable, and knowledgeable too! My "spool" is less than a year old, and we've had nothing but problems with it keeping prime, since day one. For months, I complained over and over and over again to the pool builder, who couldn't be bothered to fix it. Butch to the rescue! He was able to figure it out and fix it on the first visit and also found ANOTHER building defect that the pool builder did. Needless to say, while I'm annoyed that I have to pay money to fix something that the builder should've taken care of, at least it's money paid to someone that actually knows what they're doing. read more

Butch's Pool & Spa Repair - Our "spool" working perfectly! - Pool & Hot Tub Service Near Me - Hesperia, California

Dealing with Butch's was a decent experience. What I enjoyed was the quality of service we received for the price we paid. The bummer with dealing in local companies is that the response times, sense of urgency and dedication to getting it ASAP isn't there. When your sex machine, I mean spa, stops working getting your solid back is what's most important. Being soft sucks I stays hard so like any down time costs me loads and loads. Butch's repair technician was efficient in his systemic checks of the Jacuzzi eliminating possibilities of what could be wrong. This diagnostic service would be a paid service elsewhere I feel but Butch's performs it to accurately estimate the work being done. The estimate I received was worth it as after just a couple hours having it back in service I was able to recoup the repair costs and satisfy new clients (even earning a referral and she was fire). If you are out of supplies I would definitely use them as they seem to be the supplier to the local services who offer cleaning services. I knocked them a few stars, one because the time constraints and one because the technician asked a lot of questions seemingly interested in changing careers but not everyone has the length it takes to be successful. read more

Once again Butch and Caroline have come to our rescue. We have a pool that has intermittently been a real problem due to its old age. Butch and Caroline are the wizards of pools and helped us out IMMEDIATELY with sharp, wise service that solved the problems that others had only guessed at (at our expense). We are SO grateful for having a company that truly takes price in their work and for very reasonable pricing. I would say that I look forward to our future together except that I'm sure they've fixed the problems. THANKS again, so VERY Very much ... read more

LIFE SAVER!!!! I was to have a full house for Father's Day and my spa/pool heat went out! I frantically went online and found Butch's number. I called his wife, Carolyn, who after giving me several numbers to try because they were swamped, ended up working magic and Butch came out and within 10 minutes, everything was working!!! I have never dealt with kinder people in my life. Butch knows what he is doing and saved my party! Carolyn, his sidekick, is an angel and they are on the top of my list for pool/spa repairs!! read more

Was able to come out in a few days. Their goal is to get your jacuzzi up and running on the same day they come out. The motor on our cal spa went out and he had one with him. Gave me the warranty info. My spa has been running great ever since. read more

My heater when out and I quickly called Butch to make an appointment for a new heater installation after reading their Yelp ratings. He rearranged my plumbing and had my new heater in with in three business days. Very fair pricing along with fantastic customer service gives this pool service a 5 rating. I would absolutely recommend Butch's Pool Service for any High Desert resident. read more

Great service was charged an amazing price to get my pool pump up and running again and my Jacuzzi running again. Very professional and he was willing to explain everything to me which is very important. I will use them again in the future I give them 1 billion stars! read more

Excellent communications as they let us know that he would arrive a bit earlier than the scheduled 10am. We have a new jacuzzi we got from a friend and wanted a health check done before starting regular use. He examined the system, fixed a sticky ball, advised us on care and service. He even talked us out of some expensive additions (second pump, ozone) we considered adding since our spa was prewired. Great fast and friendly service. Will be using him for all our spa needs. Cash or check only for now. read more

Our pool/spa heater stopped working and of course I procrastinated and didn't call until the beginning of summer - when everyone suddenly wants repairs. Nevertheless, Butch was able to squeeze us in and came out within a few days of our call. It turned out to be an easy fix, but he also let me know what part to purchase online so that the next time I can fix it myself. He was informative and friendly and the price was very fair. His wife Carolyn was the one I spoke to on the phone several times and she was also a pleasure. I would definitely recommend them to others. read more

Oh my goodness I am so happy with the service I received from Butch. My husband call them to come out and check our pool system it has not been operating at all for a month or so. Butch came out while I was at work correct the problem and discuss pricing with my husband over the phone. Spoke to my husband about this he told me that Butch and his wife provided the best customer service he has ever experienced he would definitely recommend their services two others. I was so happy to hear that I was even more impressed that the repair was done without of being home and the part that failed was also there. I can't wait to meet this gentleman tomorrow when you come to pick up his payment. I told me I could not believe that someone would trust their new customers in the manner. Do the work then get paid 24 hrs later..This is unheard of today. Keep up the great work. .you have my vote read more

Our pressure was almost zero, it was July 1st, I have had horrid experiences with "Pool Men" I called Butch, figuring I would have to leave a message, but his wife answered and assured me he would be here July 2nd....and to my delight he WAS!!!! And a REPAIR man...not a "Pool Boy" He looked at my pump and had it fixed in1 1/2 hours for under $200.00....AMAZING!!!! He told me my motor was going ( it's almost 11years old, so no surprise there) Gave me a complete cost and to call when it does! I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone needing a repair...He does not sweep pools, or clean them, that is what the "Pool Boy" is for! He knows his stuff...I am thankful to have found him! read more

The worst pool service ever. Butch must have X Ray vision because he claimed to know what was broken on my pool pump without ever touching or taking it apart. He's wrong and I want my $60 back from his less than 5 minutes at my house. Do not waste your money!!!! read more

Butch and his wife are awesome. He kept coming back to make the repair right. My spa is great now! great price! Thanks butch!

We had a great experience with this company. Carolyn took my call and I was able to send her pictures of our pump so they were able to figure out what we needed without even having to come to the house. The part was fairly expensive and hard to get, but she made sure to give me a quote on parts and labor so I knew what to expect to spend before she ordered it. They were able to get the part a couple days earlier than expected and came right out and fixed our pump in about 30 minutes. Hopefully we won't have any more issues with our pool equipment, but if we do, we will be calling Butch and Carolyn again. read more

They came out quickly. Went right to the source of the problem. Replace the part and gave us suggestion on some heater repairs tips. He is trustworthy and I would have him out again. Excellent service! read more

The service was great and quick... Butch fixed our spa heater on site the same day and for a reasonable price!! He didn't try to sell us new equipment he said it was better to repair our old!! He answered all our questions I will be recommending him to everyone I know!! Thanks Butch! read more

We used Butchs pool and spa repair very professional I was told we needed a new a new heater and my service call was only 125.00 dollars I will never use any pool service again. HE WAS WONDERFUL VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND NICE 5 stars plus read more

Amazing pool repair service! I discovered Butch initially through my home warranty company when my pool pump motor went out. He was quick to respond and fixed everything perfectly! Today, I nearly had a disaster on my hands when the gardener inadvertently cut wires to the system (while it was running) and nothing was running. I had saved Butch's number and called him right away. He responded within the hour and pulled the panel, tested everything. Luckily for me the motherboard had not blown, only a fuse! Everything fixed - Hot summer weekend with family in from out of town saved! I can't imagine who else I would have called. I have complete faith in him! He's awesome and he knows what he's doing! read more

Was so happy to find Butch. He showed up when he said he would and gave us additional options to save money. Super happy with his service.

Butchs a great guy, they came out on short notice on a Saturday, diagnosed my issue and informed me it should be a warranty issue to repair. Fair honest and on time. I would highly recommend for all pool repair needs. read more

Great honest people that take the time to explain everything and find the most reasonable solution. Before coming over, they even asked several troubleshooting questions over the phone to make sure the service call was needed. So honest, would recommended to anyone looking for pool or spa work. Very reasonable rates, came to the house twice and was much more reasonable that the big store (wont name names) pricing. Had the parts here next day and have the spa running perfect. read more

I have used Butch's pool service on several occasions. Very trust worthy, knowledgable and will not tell you that you need something you don't need. Butch is the only guy I will call for my pool. He's very honest and that's hard to find. Prices are good read more

Butch came out to take a look at our Jandy pool control and quickly solved our issue! Nice guy and so was his wife when I called to schedule service! Thanks I appreciate your time and energy:) read more

Really appreciated that Butch arrived when stated, and that he worked quickly & honestly. I also appreciated his words of advice in keeping our pool working well. I will definitely use his pool service in the future. Thanks so much for getting our pool ready for the 4th! read more

My spa is an older model and came with the newly purchased home "as is." I could not get the temperature above 83 degrees and the spa would continue to run. I requested a quote on HomeAdvisor and Thumbtack. No responses. I decided to search on Yelp. Butch easily accommodated my schedule and arrived right on time. No repairs were needed, I simply did not understand the induction heat system and how it worked. Butch explained the system to me, showed me how it works and checked for any issues. At the end of the day, I was relaxing in perfect 101 degree water. Very pleased with the service provided! read more

Really glad I called Butch to check on my pool pump. I had an older single speed pump, that I had replaced the motor on a few years back. It was, as I thought...toast. Butch recommended that I get a new variable speed pump that would set me back $1300. Really glad that I took his advice. The new pump is really energy efficient, plus I got a manufacturer and SCE rebates. My electric bill is now almost 50% less per month. This pump will pay for itself in less than 2 years. As a bonus he also gave me a valve nozzle for my filter that is no longer manufactured for free. Very friendly, knowledgeable and professional.......Highly Recommend. read more

Had a problem with my jacuzzi motor not engaging. Butch quickly identified the problem as the air switch and replaced it. Highly recommend for good, friendly service. read more
