When researching pool contractors we consistently heard excellent comments about Gilrie Pools. Time after time, the happiest pool owners had used Gilrie, so we gave them a call. The quality of our pool, their knowledge of the process, their ability to design exactly what we wanted within a budget that worked for us, and wise advice resulted in a gorgeous outcome. Duane and his team were respectful of our landscaping, committed to the timeline of our project, in communication daily, and are delightful people to work with. We absolutely love our pool and would use them again and again. Excellent company! read more

Gilrie Pools has been building pools for decades in St. Augustine. My wife and I recently built our new retirement beach home and had Duane Gilrie build our highly anticipated pool. Everything was perfect! I have known Duane and his company for many years, it is family owned and they place a premium on high quality, customer satisfaction and fair pricing. Never had to worry about anything before, during or after pool construction. As a military veteran I was thrilled to be able to give a fellow veteran (Duane Gilrie-Vietnam) the opportunity to build our dream pool and he and his team did it in spectacular fashion! read more

After moving to St. Augustine we looked around for a pool builder that we could trust to do exactly what we wanted, when wanted and was referred to Duane Gilrie of Gilrie Pools by several people. At our first meeting Duane gave us suggestions and a quick layout so we could get an idea of how it would work with our limited backyard space. We live in the Moses Creek Preserve so over half of our lot is wetlands. Duane met with the local EPA representative and identified the exact location of the wetlands to maximize our pool area. He and his crew were super professional always here on time and got our pool completed when he said they would! His screen contractor also did an amazing job customizing our pool cage and always under the watchful eye of Mr. Gilrie. This was 9 years ago and our pool still looks amazing and we use it all the time! I would highly recommend Gilrie Pools to anyone looking for a truly custom pool and deck! read more

I would like to have written a review on this company but I can't. They are missing. They showed up, took all the information down for what we wanted. Told us it would be a few weeks before they could get the rendition of what we asked for. I waited a month before I reached out to them. I never got a return email or phone call. I called again two weeks later and spoke to the owner who apologized and promised he would get back to me. I'm still waiting. I wouldn't want someone who operates like this to build my pool. read more

We got an initial estimate on 7-31-2020. We had some other questions about moving the a/c units so pavers could be put under that equipment and they came out to the house for a second look. We asked for a 7" deep pool. I was told their maximum was 5'6". We needed a stem wall at the back of the pool as the ground slopes down about 22"and we wanted a 4' walk around area for the pool. We were told a new price estimate would be out to us in a few days. We never heard back from them again! I got another pool builder and I got all the things I asked for. read more

Terrible experience. Leaks, light issues, tile fell off, paving stone issues. The worst thing is that Mr. Gilrie never returns calls (I gave up at 36 unanswered phone calls and got a competent company to repair). Check BBB rating of D. Don't waste your time and money. read more

Really awful job, go somewhere else or you'll regret it.. most of the work they did for me had to be re done multiple times.

Don't hire them! My pool was started 14 months ago and is still not completed. Dwayne Gilrie will not answer calls, respond to email or texts. At this point I have involved the state licensing board to which he has stopped talking too as well. Hired an attorney and will take it from there...... read more

Gilrie built a pool at my new home in 2011. Within months the pavers around the pool started to sag. Duane sent out a young worker to attempt fixing a couple low spots but there were too many areas needing to be repaired. After that he continued taking my calls and would always say, "no problem I will make it right but it won't be today or this week it'll probably be in two weeks or so". This went on for several months and a hand full of calls. Now I have to pay another company to fix his mistake. read more

We were hesitant about building a pool, thought we would just use our community pool. But after calling Gilrie Pools for a quote, Sarah came out to our house and after talking with us for a short time, she was able to quickly put together and beautiful design that was perfect for us and very reasonably priced. Construction started months earlier than originally expected and the pool was completed in 6.5 weeks. I was able to watch much of the construction, and watch how Duane was detailed and mad sure each phase was completed to perfection. I was also here each time the inspectors (3 different ones) came to inspect the pool. Each one had extremely high praise for Duane as a pool builder and let me know I had made the right decision. That's impressive to have inspectors make that comment. Where we we undecided on selections (pavers, tile colors, etc.) Sarah and Duane came up with outstanding selections. Duane built us a very beautiful and high quality pool that we now enjoy every day. Exceeded our expectations! Very highly recommend Gilrie Pools (and we did to many of our neighbors and friends). read more

Beautiful, quality work. Best builder in town. We love our pool and recommend Gilrie to all our friends and family seeking a pool.

Gilrie Pools build a beautiful pool. Jered the main worker does a great job. You do have to stay on top of Duane Gilrie to stay focused on keeping the production going but the outcome is very nice. read more

I signed my contract for a 6X6 spa 2/4/15. We decided to use Duane because the builder had used him for the pool installation. The final inspection was done in the beginning of April. Jered was very responsive and knowledgeable when speaking with him on the job. We were not always present since this is a 2nd home for us. I think this slowed the timeliness of completing the work. It is now July and we are still having an issue with the spa holding water, everything working correctly and completion of a few punch list items. I continue to leave Duane messages and am not receiving any return calls. The craftsmanship was above average but I have been very disappointed with the follow up and follow through. read more
