Only Miguel made an effort to come by early friday evening (July 12) to look the pool over and see what needed to be done. His first observation was the lack of chlorine in the pool. He explained that was part of the problem and causing the algae growth. His quote was similar to the previous company. The other 3 companies did not bother to come and visit. One company requested photos while the other two just gave me quotes. 2 out of the 3 companies quoted $30 to $50 higher per month th what Miguel quoted me. And those quotes did not include chemicals while with Miguel, his quote was for everything. It will be 3 weeks this friday and I could not be happier. The pool looks clean and devoid of any algae. Thank you Miguel.

After countless "Sorry, we don't service your area" calls, I found someone who likes challenges and road trips. From Kelly having several of the exact pumps that I had decided on after much research, to be willing to drive several hours less than two days later, (earned 5 Stars just for that.) Kelly arrived with not just the pump but with "just in case" pieces and parts (1 more star). After some cleanup of my feeble attempt at plumbing and installing the new pump, it was time to turn on everything and see how it works...only it didn't! After some troubleshooting, Kelly concluded that the control unit for the pump was defective and likely needed to be replaced. Without any hesitation, Kelly was determined to complete the job by deciding to drive hours back to his shop, grabbing a replacement, driving hours back, and finishing the job (5 more stars). Luckily he didn't have to do that...during his troubleshooting, he had been trying to contact his contacts at the pump manufacture for advice. Just before leaving, he received a call from the manufacture that enabled the pump to be repaired in place. OK, this is where it gets really amazing!!! One of the reasons I chose this exact pump is that it has WiFi / Bluetooth capability...that been said, the manufacture rep was able to connect remotely to the pump (amazing part) via a device designator number taken from a decal on the pump and basically reinstalled software and rebooted it, REMOTELY!!!! Yes, it fixed it...(10 more stars for Kelly and the manufacture...Pentair by the way). To top that, the rep stated that he had just received the capability to enable the remote connection and that this was the first time attempting it...first time...and it worked!!! I apologize for being long, but I really wanted to give credit where credit is due...and 100 + star credit is due here, without a doubt. Needless to say, that everything is up and running and water flow and pressure are amazing...Thank You Kelly and rep, you saved the day or should I say weekend...did I mention that this all took place the weekend of the holiday that kicks off the swim season (for us anyway)...the stars just keep adding up!!! I will resoundingly recommend Kelly @ 4 Seasons to anyone needing pool repair done...you can count on him, he's professional & fair priced (worth every penny)...period! Very happy customer Steve (in the desert)

This guy is very arrogant, and argumentative. In addition, he calls me and asks me if I have home owners insurance and telling me to file a claim for my pool pump. If I have home owners insurance I should only pay $100 and they will call him to repair the pump. I said thanks and hung up. I went online to pentair and found a licensed contractor through Pentair, and they came to take the pump. They were shocked at the extended of the damage of my pump. After further inspection, it turns out my pump exploded probably from these guys ignorance or maybe intentional to charge my home insurance for this. Attached are the photos and the message from the contractor. I would never recommend this business. Update: The final cost to repair $1,057.75, because In addition to the pump exploding, it cause damage to the plumbing.

His prices are super fair for what you get. It's all relative because he's a REAL pool company and is CPO Certified. Call him and I bet you will think the same.

I cut the power to the whole house in a panic, then sat there, not totally sure what to do because it was after 5 PM and rapidly getting dark, but hey. . . at least the sizzling had stopped (tiny victories). Gonzalez Electric was one of the first Yelp hits and once I saw Ed's great reviews, I gave him a call. He answered right away, was kind, listened to what happened, and said he'd be right out. Ed arrived at my place within half an hour and got to work. Ed's diagnosis of what was wrong was clear, professional, and he took the time to answer all of my questions. He even provided options for more economical vs longer term fixes. What I really appreciate though is how fair his pricing was--- the truth is that I was in a bad situation: no power, a sizzling breaker box, and a single woman alone at home in the darkness. He could have literally charged me anything and I would have probably paid it because hey, what choice did I have? But Ed didn't do that. He was VERY fair, he gave me options, he was just an all around wonderful person to work with and I am definitely saving his info for all future electrical work. He got everything fixed up before long and we are back to normal over here before I even got dinner on the stove for the night. SO grateful to Ed and if you need any electrical work done, don't hesitate to give him a call.

Let me start by saying that being a first time home owner and with a pool it's not easy especially when we have no knowledge about pools. We moved out here to Bakersfield this past weekend; I purchased a home with a pool. The previous owner was kind enough to provide me with the phone number of her for many years pool maintenance guy. Erik is his name and he works for Mahalo Pool Care; I reached out to him before I moved out here and he never called me back once I get out here I call him again and he calls me back a few hours later. He offers his services giving me two different quotes. I ask Erik why is it that the pool looks dirty, Erik responds by saying that he doesn't know that he doesn't like the way it has been looking for the past weeks. Erik tells me to order the Pool Vacuum that it might be that, he also tells me to go buy 4 gallons of liquid Chlorine at Home Depot and just dump it into the pool. I ask Mention to Erik that if he thinks it's the Vacuum cleaner not working or if he is just thinking that's the problem because I want assurance not guessing, Erik says yes yes that is the problem. From the beginning when I spoke to a Erik he was very unprofessional. 1 - If he knew it was the vacuum why didn't he ever tell the previous owners that it was not working. 2 - He mentioned that he also did not like the way the pool has been looking for the last weeks. 3 - If your are servicing my pool aren't you supposed to make sure why'd it's looking dirty and fix the problem. After analyzing the situation and not being happy at all with the way Erik was just trying to make me purchase a $520.00 Pool Vacuum without even coming out I my house and even take some time to look at pool made me realize Erik does not care about customer satisfaction. Asking me to go buy the chlorine; if your the pool service guy why didn't you do it then why am I even bothering to get a pool maintenance guy if I'm going to do the things myself. Finally I looked in Yelp and found Bakersfield Pool Solutions. I called and Arturo answered me right away, I explained a little what my problem was. Arturo offered to find to my house the same day during the evening. When Arturo came out he right away tested the water and it so happens to be that the water is really BAD! It's no wonder that when we went swimming our body got very itchy. It so happens to be that the vacuum that Erik told me that doesn't work actually works fine. Arturo needs to dump all the water out of the pool and flush wash the pool get a basket where the pump goes because it does not have one. It's very sad to see people like Erik take advantage of customers that put their trust on him to give the correct maintenance to our pools. It's so sad that Erik didn't even take the time to come and see what the problem was. Erik found it much easier to tell me to purchase a $520 pool vacuum and go get chlorine and just dump it into the pool. It's more than obvious that Erik does not care about great customer service! The pool has not been properly received the correct maintenance at all! read more

I would give zero stars if that were an option. This company operates in a highly unprofessional…read moremanner, and I would not recommend their services to anyone. Initially, the owner performed acceptable work for a few months. After that, however, he began sending his child or other inexperienced individuals who clearly lacked the knowledge required to properly maintain a pool. The quality and reliability of service declined significantly. Additionally, I experienced a serious car accident that temporarily left me unable to pay a bill by the scheduled date. Instead of showing any understanding or professionalism regarding the situation, the owner repeatedly demanded payment and threatened to publicly "blast" me on Facebook and other social media platforms if I did not provide the money sooner than the date I had already committed to. This kind of behavior is unprofessional and completely unacceptable from a business that claims to provide a service to the public. I'm posting this so others are aware and can avoid dealing with the same issues I experienced. There are far better pool service companies available. I have since hired another company and only wish I had chosen them from the start instead of this one. Hopefully this review helps others make a more informed decision. -- Nicholas Dials

I then shopped around and found a company already doing pools down the street that would do it for 130 a month. When I told them about Dependable Pool jacking up my price, they thought it was crazy and ridiculous and that would have been a huge ripoff. Glad I switched, I'm still with the same guys I got then, at the same rate with great service. So if you don't have any idea what you should be paying for a pool service, they are probably overcharging you alot and I would shop around.
