History
Established in 2008.
My business started the day the company I worked for closed their doors. I started Orca Pool and Spa with no more than an old service truck and my reputation built on years of service with my customers. As word of mouth grew, so did my business. We had 9 years of growth on the lower mainland but always wanted to move back home to the Island. This year we made that happen and it was the best move we could have ever made.
Meet the Business Owner: Mike R.
I started in the pool and spa business about 17 years ago. I come from a mechanical, electronics and plumbing background so it seemed a perfect fit. I started as the service manager for Coast Spas and then for Arctic Spas. Having those positions exposed me to all makes and models of spas and allowed me to obtain a vast amount of experience. I'm one of the few guys out there that can still repair the old analog spas as well as the latest digital models. I'm also an environmentalist which means I try to repair first before replacing. So many perfectly good pumps get sent to the dump simply because they need new bearings.
Several years ago I was fortunate to partner with my good friend Lorenzo, from All Star Pools, and got involved with building pools. I had always been able to service the equipment for them, but had never been involved in the construction. Now with our combined experience we are able to take on just about any project.
