They designed a beautiful layout that fit our unique backyard and our desires. Picking out the stones, colors, materials etc. was effortless, and they had perfect recommendations based on our environment and design ideas. The two people that we dealt with primarily were Sam (the project manager) and Tami (the coordinator). They were both absolutely wonderful, updated us and contacted us frequently, and were always readily available for any questions that popped up. The construction took place on a surprisingly fast timeline. We were lucky to have good weather the entire time but even with the contractors all being busy, they followed their original timeline almost exactly. The quality of the work all the way through exemplified professionalism. And as far as the final results... Every morning now I step out and I am thrilled how my ugly backyard has been transformed into my true backyard paradise. Our family uses the pool constantly and I know with the quality of the work done, it will be a hassle-free experience enjoying this oasis. I am so happy we used this company, they made the process from loan origination suggestions to final "pool school" and maintenance plans so easy.... A totally professional group!!

Green and pink algae started forming so about a year ago I had another tile company come out and clean/seal it. It looked good for a while, but they apparently didn't use the correct sealer as the algae returned with a vengeance. After a lot of research on the internet, I contacted Tim at Paver Makeover. He came out and removed all the algae, re-sanded the grout lines and resealed the Travertine. He went above and beyond by persevering on a lot of stains that were exclusive from the algae; rust, stains from potted plants, etc. with many requiring removal by hand. It looks brand new! We highly recommend Tim and Paver Makeover. If you want the job done "right the first time" give Tim a call.

A small amount of background... My wife and I have been…read moremarried 45 years. This is the tenth home we have owned together. We have engaged in numerous renovation/construction projects in that time, many of which we were able to complete ourselves with no assistance from outside contractors. When we do require professional assistance, we read reviews, place value in references and receive a minimum of three bids for a project before signing a contract. This pool, our first, we contacted and were working with four designers/pool builders. Dominion rather easily won our respect and the job. Marc (designer) was great to work with from the very beginning. We very quickly established an easy working relationship. He was receptive to our questions and changes as we developed the design of our dream pool. He was responsive to phone calls, emails and texts, sometimes late into the evening. We signed the contract May 17th, after several weeks of visits, changes and decision making. As I said, this was our first pool and we didn't want to rush into it. It took three more weeks before excavation started due to other projects being completed. Once the excavation started, there were several issues that affected the job. An inch and a half of rain on excavation day set the tone for the rest of the project. We endured issues with heavy rainfall, wall collapse, extreme heat as well as Hurricane Beryl. We were informed at the time that we signed the contract to expect 8-10 weeks of construction, start to finish. We know that this was just an estimate, but the job finished (more or less) on day 147. The rating for Dominion is based on our interactions with the builder alone. The individual subcontractors were all wonderful to work with. To be fair, I would like to individually rate the varied aspects of the job. Design - Marc was great to work with. He gave us what we wanted before we knew what we wanted. Five stars for design. He has since left the company. Subcontractors - Terrific group of people from start to finish. There was always someone onsite that was easy to communicate with, and all were very professional. Five stars for the contractors for their execution from plan to finished product. Dominion - Without a doubt the worst experience we have ever had with a construction project. Communication with the Project Manager Matthew was sporadic at best. Because of a perceived issue with our sun ledge that I didn't fully understand and was never explained to me (almost 8 weeks into the job), there was an extended period of time that Matthew would not return our calls or texts (numerous) and Debbie (owner) outright refused to speak with me. (Franco, the tile contractor, resolved the issue very elegantly to our satisfaction. That may have been the plan all along, but there was NO communication from Dominion after several attempts). This was just the beginning of what turned out to be several stalls in the job progress, all of which included a variety of excuses as well as periods of no communication on Dominion's part. Again, to be clear, this was our first pool. We were very upfront with all at Dominion about that. We were very clear that we would be asking a lot of questions and, most importantly, that communication was very important to us. In a rare instance of communication, Debbie informed my wife that every season they had one job where nothing seemed to go according to plan. Whether or not this is accurate, we were that customer. I can go in to great detail on the progress of the job start to finish if requested, but the bottom line is that the negatives outweigh the positive aspects of our choice of working with Dominion. If you are someone who can remain uninvolved in a project like this and the finished product is your only concern, I feel that you will be very happy with this company. To be fair, this review is not coming from someone that is capable of that. When all is said and done, Dominion built a beautiful pool for us using quality materials and contractors. I do understand that Dominion experienced some cost overruns on our build. Some were their own doing and some were unexpected and unfortunate, but the way that they have chosen to handle those issues as well as us as customers has been a major disappointment to me. I expected more from them considering the financial cost of this job. I very much resent being made to feel like the 'bad guy' here when all we wanted was for the agreed upon project to be finished in a timely manner according to our contract. Because of this, I would be reluctant to recommend their services to anyone.

I brought this to their attention and had no response, so I had to direct the crew to correct it and remove the duct tape and apply silicone. They broke our gas line and we had to call 911, the work crew continued working despite an active gas leak, which is dangerous for everyone. There were many other communication issues on top of tbis I won't dive into. But when I build my next pool at my new property I would not use the Pool Man again. If you decide to go with them, you will need to watch all the work like a hawk and be prepared to be assertive with issues until they are resolved correctly. The process won't be "smooth." I sincerely regret using the pool man and do not recommend them to anyone based on my personal experience.
