My father is not an easy-to-please person. His longtime pool person passed away last year and I was…read morea little worried about who would be able to fill his shoes. I suggested to do a search on Yelp and he landed on Deluxe Pool Services. I held my breath... and they came through. The services he gets include opening/closing and weekly cleanings. Dad is especially impressed because whenever there are issues with his pool, their customer service is so top tier, they are on it immediately to resolve the problem. Their location is in CT but you can see from the reviews that they work with pools all over LI (and apparently as far as Albany, according to my father). Their maintenance people are fast, friendly and thorough (I've been at the house a couple times when they serviced the pool). Reasonably priced, too. Important to note that my father is someone who doesn't tolerate inconsistent timeliness (this probably goes for 9/10 dads, no?) and they are always on time or they call. You really can't ask for anything more when it comes to pool services.

I hired him to set up my above-ground pool in 2024. Before the installation, I specifically asked…read morehim to place it in the middle of the yard because that area was flatter. Instead, he insisted on putting it in a different spot, assuring me that he had leveled the ground and that it would be fine. The pool looked okay at first, but it only lasted one season. Last year, the liner ripped, and I initially thought it was my fault. This year, I had another pool professional come inspect it, and they immediately pointed out that the original installation was done very poorly. They found that there were tree roots underneath the pool that had continued to grow, causing the ground to become uneven and the pool to lose its level. I was also told that the area should never have been used in the first place because of the roots. I trusted his judgment when he assured me the spot was properly leveled, but it turns out that wasn't the case. While the pool may have looked fine initially, the poor placement and installation ended up costing me a damaged liner and additional repair expenses just a year later. I would not recommend this service based on my experience. If I could give a 0 star;I would.

We've used Biggs for opening and closing the pool a few times. Our pool is old and really needs…read morerenovation. Having to add water each night was a big pain. Steven came and diagnosed the issue and repaired quickly. Fair price and fast service.

I used this company to open my pool 2 years in a row. I found them to be completely unresponsive…read moreand sloppy. This year they left the chlorinator empty and off (because it apparently leaked) without telling me. I discovered the problem when my water turned green. I contacted the company, was told they would stop by. Apparently they did - but didn't tell me they had been here or what the problem had been or if it was fixed or not. Subsequent emails went unanswered and I have not heard anything since. and the filter timer wasn't set up properly, so it ran non-stop for more than a week and then had issues that needed to be fixed.

My pool has an in-floor cleaning system and an early computer control system. To make matters worse, I like to fiddle with things. Palacios handled it all, and in the process convinced me that there is an alternative to do-it-yourself. Now, I just call Palacios.
