    The Pool Nerd - After. Full equipment replacement.

    The Pool Nerd

    Marcus is the real deal! After a couple of companies told us we needed a new pool heater, Marcus…read morecame out, diagnosed the actual problem, found the replacement part, and had everything fixed the very same day. He saved us from an unnecessary and expensive replacement. Honest, knowledgeable, and just a genuinely nice guy. We couldn't be happier and will definitely be calling The Pool Nerd again. Highly recommend!

    I requested a number of bids to repair our leaking Pentair pump/motor, and Marcus was able to fit…read moreme in on the same day. I let him know what repairs others had recommended, and he confirmed that the seals and impeller needed to be replaced. However, he said the seal plate was fine, and did not need to be replaced at this time. I appreciated his honesty, as he could have charged us more for an unnecessary repair. While he was at our house, I also noted that one of the valves leaked when we ran the spa, and he quickly diagnosed and addressed the issue. Finally, after he left, I noticed that one of the connections (which he had removed to repair the pump and motor) was leaking. He ended up coming back multiple times to correct the problem (he ended up replacing a pinched o-ring), and he even checked in a few days later to ensure everything was working smoothly. Super nice guy, he was very knowledgeable (he mentioned having experience as a Pentair technician), and honest, and his pricing felt more than fair. While I hope we don't have any more issues with our pool or pool equipment, I would not hesitate to hire Marcus again in the future.

    We were long time customers of the Leslie's store that closed in Huntington Beach at Magnolia and…read moreGarfield. I made my first trip to the Costa Mesa store on Sunday July 26. David the General Manager was extremely helpful and friendly ! He was able to quickly diagnose what was wrong with our 3 year old Pro Maxx pool sweep. Because of him, I will be back to this Leslie's! Leslie's is very lucky to have him as a General Manager !!!

    1/5 -- Shockingly Bad Customer Service…read more I genuinely can't remember the last time I received customer service this bad. I walked into Leslie's for three simple things: a water test, DE, and replacement chemicals for my home test kit. The employee said hello, tested my water, printed the results, handed me the paper...and literally said NOTHING. No explanation of the results. No recommendations. No "your water looks good" or "here's what you need." Not even "anything else I can help you with?" He just moved on to another customer. So I actually had to GET BACK IN LINE to ask for the replacement test bottles I had come in for. He told me they were about $8 each. I asked what an entirely new test kit cost, and he said around $30. He then rang up the individual bottles--which totaled around $30 anyway--with zero effort to explain which option made more sense. And the DE I came in to buy? Apparently that was asking too much. He never asked about it, never rang it up, and never even attempted to find out what else I needed. Then I noticed what was open on the store computer: his homework. Suddenly the complete lack of interest in helping customers made a lot more sense. Apparently writing a paper was the priority, and customers were just an interruption. I'm not expecting five-star concierge service at a pool supply store. I am expecting someone to actually DO THEIR JOB. Explain the water test you just performed. Ask what the customer needs. Make a recommendation. Ring up the products they came in to purchase. Maybe even demonstrate some basic courtesy. The most frustrating part is that I walked into a specialty pool store specifically because I wanted advice and products. If the entire experience is going to consist of silently handing me a printout and making me repeatedly ask for help while you work on homework, there is absolutely no reason to shop here instead of ordering everything online. Truly awful customer service. Leslie's should be embarrassed that this is the experience customers are getting in one of their stores. I certainly won't be going back to this location.
