I spent months trying to get my pool clean, but it just wasn't working. That's when I decided to call in a professional. I feel very blessed to have found Hugo. He came out, looked at what I was dealing with, went over everything thoroughly and then gave me a very reasonable quote. We finalized the agreement, and then Hugo began to work his magic. I was amazed at how quickly my pool went from a stubborn green mess, into a beautiful oasis! Thank you, Hugo! You are the best! read more

There was a gentleman driving a Colorado truck in Whittier this morning and was aggressively honking at another vehicle that was stopped yielding to emergency vehicles. He was screaming in his car and acting Erratic. It is the same gentleman that is flipping someone off in the other reviews. Not a very good representation of this company! Good luck. read more

Hugo had serviced my pool for over 2 years. But he unprofessionally said he will not clean my pool from one day to another. He had accused me of not paying him the full amount of a pool filter change. Which I paid him all in cash. It's interesting how after being his customer for such a long time he wouldn't trust us. I have never in my life cheated a person out their hard work. Obviously, he must have not counted the hundred dollar bills I gave him correctly or maybe he thought I wasn't aware of what I paid him. He clearly told me I gave him less, not the day of the service, but until a month later when my maintenance bill was due. The day I paid him I told him I gave you $50 extra so discount it out of my next maintenance bill since I did not have the exact amount. He even recommended a small pool filter instead of a larger one for the actual size of my pool. Since I had to search for other pool services they told me that it required 60 sq.ft. NOT a 48 sq.ft. Filter. Why wouldn't he recommend this to me? I guess the cheaper route is best for his pocket. At end of it all he completely stopped servicing me this week for that reason. He doesn't care about his customers at the end of the day. I tolerated my pool being left dirty with algae all over the walls and always having to ask him about my chemicals. But it's time to move on I guess. Thanks for leaving me hanging Hugo! read more

Talked to Hugo on Saturday to provide me with quote on two pools at my house. He said he will show up on Tuesday (today) at 11. Didn't show up at all. Send him a message reminding him. He didn't bother to answer to all. Pooooor Customer Service. I wonder if that is the service before getting a job from me, what would be the case if I would have hired him. update on September 5 (Wednesday) after he replied on my review. He has mentioned that I have never called him and never sent him a message on his reply. I have posted a proof of the same as an image (which is currently showing on Image No. 125). He is lying and can be seen very clearly on the image that he has no ethics if he can lie for missing an appointment instead of apologizing and admitting to his mistake, he rather chose the way to insult me by lying. WOW !!!! see the proof guys yourself. Message Picture Uploaded. I will update if he will call and apologize for his mistake. Update: Yelp keeps removing my picture showing a message that I sent to him through text message. read more

Hugo does consistent good work. He is reliable, timely, friendly and lets us know if we have had any issues and makes recommendations on what to do. When it's windy he will be in communication and delays cleaning days until it's over. Which we appreciate. The pool is always in good condition and well maintained... read more

We have used Hugo for a couple years now and he's always consistent and reliable. At a previous home I had someone else servicing my pool and the chemicals were always off. I've never had that issue with Hugo. My daughter has health issues and we have to make sure the water is always perfectly sanitized and I used to check it every time before she went in but I no longer worry because I trust Hugo and his skill in taking care of my pool. By the way, he also has the code to my backyard because I trust him and that's the most important thing to me! read more

Hugo is simply awesome. He leaves the pool sparkling clean every single time. The water is perfectly conditioned and with the fragrant aroma of fine, fine diamonds. In my vast experience of dealing with pool servicers (two others), Hugo has been the best by far on both a personal and professional level. I took off one star only because Hugo could be more consistent on arriving the day of the week that we initially agreed upon, but otherwise it is a minor detail and he is extremely reliable and trustworthy. I definitely recommend Hugo and Pacific Coast Pool Serice for anyone looking to get their pool serviced in the Valley. Thank you Hugo for treating my pool like a family member and with the utmost respect and regard that a pool deserves. read more

I would give Hugo and Pacific Coast Pool Service 6 stars if I could. I used Hugo's company for 2 years at my home in the Valley and I never left a review until now. What I can say is that Hugo is one the most professional, honest, and value oriented people you will find. You cannot go wrong with this company. Highly recommended! read more

I had been switching pool service companies over last 10 years until I found Hugo about 5 years ago. I didn't have to switch anymore because my pool has since been clean all the time. Huge's service and communication are very professional. My pool used to develop algae once in a while when under the service of other pool companies. It has stopped happening under Hugo's care. I would highly recommend Hugo and his company. read more

Hugo not only does a very thorough job cleaning, but is also super-proactive. He always makes sure to check into things that seem not quite right to him, and makes great recommendations to keep everything in our pool in tip-top shape. Plus, he is one of the friendliest, most upbeat people you will ever meet. I could not be happier with Hugo, and I strongly recommend him to everyone in the area. read more

Despite his incredible dedication to turning our pool into a swamp, we decided to replace our previous 'pool guy.' "Pool guys," (as they're called in the industry), are well known for being as punctual and reliable as a Swiss watch... A Swiss watch which has been beaten with a hammer, soaked in glue and thrown to the bottom of the ocean. Perhaps he was moonlighting as a magician, but we became tired of the spontaneous and sporadic disappearing acts of our previous 'pool guy.' It's odd that there should have to be an 'interview process' for such a fundamentally straight-forward service, but I found myself in exactly that predicament. Which is why I'm glad to say that I found Hugo with Pacific Coast Pool Service. He showed up when he said he would, was articulate and professional, and immediately tore into our pool equipment like a rabid wolverine stumbling upon a meat piñata filled with peanut butter. (I don't know why, but I imagine a wolverine would enjoy that). I can honestly say that our pool has never looked so clean. I always thought that the slight aqua-greenish cast to our pool was painted on the concrete... Or so our former 'pool guy' would have us believe. No, it just took some good elbow-grease to fix. Presently, I proudly profess pride in my pool, and am pleasantly pleased with our pool purifying professional from Pacific Pool, Paul. (His name's really Hugo, but that didn't work, damn it!) read more

Hugo's performance gets better all the time. I appreciate when he shows up when he says he'll show up.

Hugo and his associates have been taking care of our pool for the past 3 years. They have been incredibly friendly and reliable the entire time. They show up like clockwork each week and make sure we're happy and taken care of.

Looked for a good pool service person for months, I was glad I found Hugo. Talk about professional, honest and a perfectionist. Glad I found Hugo. read more

Had trouble keeping my pool "algae free" and had neglected it for a few weeks. Needed help so I asked Hugo to come by and check out the situation. That night he stopped by and we agreed to start the process of clearing up the pool. A week later the pool was free of algae and looks great. I have an older filter, but Hugo had it up and performing well after removing all of the algae from the pool. read more

We had had our previous pool guy for about 5 years and over the last year our pool was constantly a greenish color. I had finally had enough and started looking for a new pool guy. I called several and a few came our to give me a quote. I called Hugo who came out and took a look at my pool. Hugo was awesome. He must have spent 45 minutes testing our water looking over our filter and pool pump. He was a stand up guy in not wanting to talk badly about what a horrible job our last pool guy was doing. He started that week and the difference was immediate. If you want a top notch pool guy who knows his stuff..Hugo is your man. I will be such to recommend him to all my friends and family. read more

I've been using Hugo for about a year and very happy so far. He recommended changing our old pump to take advantage of a $1000 DWP rebate- without being pushy. He took care of everything and made it easy. His service is great and doesn't try to sell you things you don't need. He actually brushes and vacuums every week, unlike my last pool guy who was done in 5 minutes. read more

I was introduced to Hugo Lopez by a neighbor after having a couple of disastrous pool guys who claimed to know what they were doing. He arrived when he said he'd come to the house; I found him professional, honest, humble and really seemed to know what he was talking about. He didn't try to push anything on me at all; he had a contract for both of us to sign when starting out, and I was happy to see how he did. He texts me after every visit to let me know what has been done, what is needed, what can be done to help with the pool area; he never does something and bills afterwards without asking permission first. My pool has truly never looked better, and I am so happy to refer him to a person looking for an honest, professional person who takes pride in their work. I try to refer him as often as possible, as I know others will be as happy as I am with the service he offers ...... read more

I requested a quote through yelp and the very next day Hugo came by. He was detailed, explained everything, had the contract, was honest and quick. He answered everything and was reasonably priced. I signed the co tract with Hugo and his team started the very next week. Even though I'm not home when they come I see them on the cameras and his team does a great job. read more

I hired Hugo about a year ago. He charged me more than he quoted me in a text and when I explained to him that I had the text he had sent he still insisted on charging me the extra amount. I had it in black and white! He chose to ignore it. He also put in some equipment without first asking me if we wanted him to go ahead with it. He figured that since he texted me that was good enough. I don't keep my phone with me all the time and he had already installed the equipment before he heard back from me. Additionally, I just had someone out to possibly hire (and I think I will) and this guy said that Hugo had left trash all over my pool equipment area--which he should have gotten rid of and that my pool fill was set way too high--ie., too much water was going into my pool everyday. Hire someone else. read more

Hugo was great! I needed to upgrade my pool pump and wanted to get it thru the LADWP rebate program. Hugo has all of the paperwork filled out and installed the pump quickly! read more

All, As most of you that own homes with pools recognize, it is difficult to find a dependable pool service company as they are few and far between. I have lived in the Lake Balboa area for over 20 years and we have had our share of pool service companies. One day my wife took charge and started looking for a pool service company. She called Pacific Coast Pool Service and spoke to Hugo, the following week Hugo started cleaning our pool. It has been over 2 years without incidents. We love that the pool is always clean when we are ready to use it (was an issue before). We recently had our filter, pump and the skimmer replaced. Naturally, we asked Hugo for his input, he recommended the system to use and discussed the effectiveness of each system. He recommended we go with Pentair equipment. We proceeded to contract Hugo and his team to replace the system, he walked us through incentives and rebates, and one thing I appreciated was that Hugo took the initiative to print the forms, walked us through the forms, took pictures, and collected all that was required for the mail-in rebate. He provided us with an envelope containing all the original paperwork with copies, and the address to submit the rebates. This made the entire process go smooth. The rebates were 1/3 of the cost of the repairs so that helped considerably! The replacement equipment has been working great and efficiently. I recommend Pacific Coast Pool Service to anyone that has a pool! Hope this helps! Sincerely, Steve & Angie read more

Hugo Lopez is magic. Found Hugo on YELP. He is as good as advertised. We have a 1980's in ground fiberglass spa. Hugo was able to find parts and fixed what he could. He then replaced the filter, fixed the on off switch, and cleans and conditions the water at a fair monthly rate. Hugo is a keeper. Thanks Hugo, and thanks YELP. Bob F. read more

I bought a house and immediately the pump fails on my pool. The previous owner assured me it was a simple fix. Then the fires happened in Simi. The Fall winds also began. Within weeks I had a green pond in my new house. I called many guys and only they responded fast. within days it was crystal blue again. I also have dogs and I feel assured they will never get out when he is here. The best pool service. Will not break your wallet. Theyre so nice too. Take my advice, use these guys. read more

We've had bad luck with pool men before and knew it was time to look for someone new. I happen to stumble across Pacific Coast Pool Services on Yelp and I am so glad to have met Hugo. My pool was turning green due to lack of consistent weekly maintenance by our prior cleaner who would show up as he wished. But with Hugo, there's clear communication and professionalism. He was prompt to stop by to take a look. He reviews an agreement for service which I've never experienced with prior pool men. He will give you updates and let you know if something needs to be fixed. And will work on fixing it promptly. He quickly turned the pool from a haven of green algae to crystal clear waters. You can tell he loves what he does and is knowledgeable. I am confident now my pool will be taken care! Thanks for the piece of mind! Hugo is the best out there! read more
