This was the biggest construction project we've ever done - and it was the smoothest experience…read more From the start Chris, the owner, gave us the most realistic overview of the timeline and total costs - without selling it or sugar coating, so we were going in totally prepared, no surprises. He wasn't kidding when he said we had to start permitting process in summer 2025 to open in time for Memorial Day weekend 2026 either - getting construction permit processed was the biggest wait. Now we opened just in time for summer - and she's a beauty! Pool Boss team coordinated the whole project from start to finish - the designer Michael helped us get the plans and measurements exactly right, even taking into consideration our future addition plans for the property. Tina filed and coordinated a million permit forms for us. Matt & Dan were very patient helping us figure out the on-sight restrictions. The construction itself was very quick and fun to watch (the digging was done with surgical precision!). Special thank you to Joanna for very clear communication throughout! The scheduling and ongoing notifications to keep us apprised of the progress were very helpful! We went with PB's recommended contractors - JBJ for electric (super professional - and again, helped us run everything with future construction projects in mind), and United Stamped Concrete for landscaping (Felipe's team did a phenomenal job with out stamped concrete patio and grading, great attention to detail). The orientation with Eduardo was super clear - we've never operated a pool and he patiently explained every single detail about the equipment and maintenance. The equipment can be controlled from an app too - very convenient and we are looking forward to Tyler making it even smarter. :) Thank you so much! It was a very big (HUGE) decision for us - but we are so happy we trusted you. Our three kids are having the time of their life - this pool brings us so much joy already!! P.S. We went for the Crystal Quartz liner - so pretty, as if you you're in the South of France!!!

ABSOLUTE SCAM ( I didn't want my general thesis to get lost in the body paragraphs)…read more I hired this company for a pool closing and new pool cover install. First, they scheduled and failed to show up on two separate occasions. Both times, I had to call the next day to figure out why they didn't show. Then, on the third attempt, the guy shows up with his two teenage kids to do the job since his coworker got sick. (Fine... it's a family business, I can understand it in a pinch) They install the pool cover and send me a bill that night for the remaining balance. The next day, I go outside to inspect the work and notice that they cracked one of my paving stones in half while working. (Again, I get it. Stuff happens. But they didn't even call to let me know) I confront them about the damage and their response is: "Oh, we were going to call and let you know but we forgot" We then agreed on paying the remaining balance once they come back and replace my paving stone. A few weeks pass and I get a nasty email saying, "we can't find a replacement stone, but you owe us money for the work we did." I decide to give them the benefit of the doubt. I pay them the remaining $600 and let them know that I found a replacement stone for them. As soon as they received my final payment, GHOSTED! It's been over a month now of me calling and emailing several times. No answer, and now I'm left looking for someone else to repair my brand new $10,000 paver patio Also, this is my first ever online review, and they are more than deserving of the honor

I gave this business thousands- all regrettable life lessons learned. They lie to you. Sleaze their way into you paying up, with them delivering wrong information and extremely poor work. They even lied they showed up to my house, when cameras show no one in sight for hours. I did pool liner with them: started coming off and they blamed anything they possibly can (water itself, the liner they themselves installed, and, the funniest one, the last installer which was them). When they ask you who did the last work- say a competing business or you forgot, and watch how quickly they point out all the wrong things done even they're the ones that did it. Their warranty is bogus but they're smart about avoiding any actually quality work and follow up. Schedule will keep extending. Dates will keep changing. People will show up for 30-45 min and scam you. They'll make problems much bigger so they can come back and take more money. They don't believe your photos, videos, or what you are seeing in your own home. They always follow their made-up delusions. The people who make the decisions and you give your money mostly to are not the people who do the job, nor do they show up to see anything. You'll find an extremely rude, unprofessional, and liar of a person named Darlene working you through the phone. The mostly behind the curtain guy is Dan- he will talk his 30 years of experience with you to get you to believe, and of course take your money. You will lose your money. You will face more problems in your pool and system than you started with. You will be lied to. You will regret your decision to worth with these slimy people. Go elsewhere. Do it yourself. Order online. Anything but conduct business with this company of liars and deceivers. You work hard, so take it easy and give your money and time to a more deserving business. Monarch is not it.

Orange County Pools in New Windsor, NY - 0 Stars. Horrible experience over the entire process of…read moreinstalling a new custom vinyl pool with a fiberglass hot tub within the footprint of the pool. We dealt with Shane, who is absolutely useless. Knows nothing about the equipment he sells, could not remember anything we had gone over with him or the actual liner and products we wanted. We were doing stone coping and pavers around the pool. Told us we must use 12" coping. Luckily I waited to order the stone as when they installed the the pool walls and the hot tub (which was delayed by several month because they told us the wrong one was sent to them - an absolute lie as we had to chase them down up to the day before they were supposed to install it until they finally lied to us and tried to talk us into doing a concrete hot tub instead - which by the way they originally said they could not do). When they finally installed the hot tub 4+ months later, 12" coping would not cover the gap between the hot tub and the pool wall because they had measured incorrectly. (needed at least 14" coping). Then the hot tub was leaking from day one. Couldn't get the basics right - if it doesn't hold water, nothing else matters. They sent over someone who didn't know what he was doing and was just smearing caulk all over the one light fixture in the hot tub to try and fix it. After the 4th! visit to find fix the leak, we had to get a sonic leak detection specialist to find and repair the leak. Then one of the relays went out at the Pentair panel. We were now dealing with the owner of the company (Vinnie) due to Shane's complete incompetence (I can not stress enough how clueless he is..). Vinnie tried to claim it happened because the low voltage line was run in the same conduit as the high voltage line (this is not the cause) and it was our electricians fault and needed to go back to them. He didn't realize that HIS electrician had run it.. another idiot trying to offload his mistakes onto us. They sent a nice guy over to fix it and he replaced the relay, but said he couldn't test as he didn't know how, but it should be good as it was a new part - the first one was a new part also, you need to test it. I did it myself. They also ran the lines for surface mounted air control valves (for bubbles in the hot tub) right in the walk path and where you step into the hot tub. I spoke to Shane (Vinnie wasn't available) to tell them they needed to be moved (10 mintue job - pvc flex pipe) and Shane said I don't think you can do that.. The guy who knows nothing about pools, now has an opinion on pool plumbing. I told him it absolutely can be done, and WILL be done, I was asking them to do it as they had put them in the wrong place. He got back to me after talking to his techs and gave me a quote of $150 per hour to move. Thanks for nothing idiot. I did it myself in ten minutes, no issues. Shane also ordered the cover for the pool and hot tub incorrectly. He literally co do nothing right. We spent over 1 and 1/2 years dealing with their incompetence. The actual pool builders they outsourced to (believe they were called King Pools) were good. NEVER EVER think about using them, you will regret it like we did.
