We were able to look around their showroom, walk into office / other rooms of the building without the presence of anyone for a good 15 minutes. We finally found Austin Jackson in a back office at his desk. After speaking with him, he mentioned he could not be out that week but could the next week. He asked for a survey of our property. Few days later he finally texted back asking about our availability which he was provided 3 full open days to come out which he never did and ghosted us at that point. This company doesn't care to make money I guess.

In my opinion was the most expensive stressful moronic situation I could've ever got myself…read moreinvolved in was with, Cody Pools. The pool which did turn out lovely almost took 7 months to construct and then with in that time line the outdoor kitchen and tile around pool remained issues after everything was constructed. Cody Pools has zero customer service knowledge as they do like to play the blame game and hardly (did I write hardly) I meant never except ownership... no matter how black and white the situation is or now was... Pay the extra 10K or so and go with a company that is definitely less stressful and takes the time to deal with their clients; whom are spending their hard earned money to hire you. Here is Cody pools trying to be clever in a response not realizing that I have parents with a different name than I and I was at the house everyday during this construction. Try again, Mr. Pools as I got the receipts to prove purchase of the frustration our family went through. Like I said beautiful pool but horrid customer service. Case and point

I was initially impressed by Patten. They are knowledgable and timely with their service calls…read more The last one did me in though. I had their tech (Jake) out to repair a leak. He said he fixed it, gave an invoice, asked me to call him if it continues to leak. All good so far, right? It started to leak at the same spot the next day. I had them back out again. In the middle of the visit, I go out to talk with them to find out what's up. He said he must of tightened something too tightly and caused a seal to break, and now it needs to be replaced. Not my fault, right? No, it's my fault. I had to buy a new part. Things happen, fine. I'm a little upset but I'll live. Now the pressure in my pool is high, and Jake advises a cleaning. I agree. He asks to use my chemical, the last of my Muriatic acid. I didn't like this at all, but he didn't give me a choice. Now I have to take time out of my day to go buy new chemical. During the filter cleaning, Jake and his help (Kevin) were constantly arguing back and forth. These remarks persisted through the entire visit, and was very unprofessional. They seemed like they were genuinely pissed off at one another. Here I am, now with invoices paid for both visits, and I don't feel good about it at all. There's too many pool repair companies for me to have to deal with the lack of professionalism during the call and additional charges for labor for things they admitted breaking. I guess I'll just have to deal with it, because Patten wouldn't offer to help me on the resulting bill at all. PS. I take that back, there's a .01 (penny) adjustment on my invoice. Seriously.

We DO NOT recommend Patten Pools or his new owner, Bill England. We hired them to replaster and fix…read moreour pool shortly after we bought our house in Grogan's Mill. I forwarded Bill the pool inspection report, and he emailed us a proposal stating what needed to be done, the job duration (7-10 days), and the cost ($6,348). We paid a 1/3 deposit. We told him we had never owned a pool before, and that we were not living in the house yet and would move to The Woodlands (from the East Coast) mid- to end-June. Patten's work was not good. Besides, despite our repeated requests, Bill was not always good at communicating and did not always show up when he said he would (once we paid someone to be at our property to give Bill access to the property, but Bill did not show up or call; after one hour of waiting we called and emailed Bill and he said he had a last minute emergency - but did not have the courtesy to call!). May and June rains delayed Bill's work. He called to ask if it was ok to start the work a couple of weeks later. We said ok (since we would move in mid-June). What he did not say was that the rains could ruin our pool and that we should get someone to take care of it until he could get to it. On June 11, we found a deep-green pool, and a pump with a huge leak problem at our new home. I called and emailed Paten; they sent someone who told us we would have to sandblast the flagstone. We got stuck paying an extra $1,500 to clean the now green-gunky flagstone - the same flagstone that two and a half weeks before had looked just fine, and that the rains and Patten's inattention and carelessness had contributed to turn green. (Bill could deny any wrongdoing by pointing out that it was OUR pool and our responsibility, and that we had only hired him to replaster it and repair it, and not to clean it, right? I ask, as a business owner, is it not appropriate to alert your customers of the risk that the rains may pose to their pool and the surrounding flagstone? Particularly to customers who have told you they have never owned a pool before and who are still on the East Coast?) A few days later, on June 24, his crew replastered our pool. They left a mess in our backyard. Two days later, I showed Bill the mess; he said someone would come clean it up. It took him a week and two reminders to clean it up - and not entirely. To this day, we have remains of plaster in our backyard. "The pump needs to run continuously for 72 hours", Bill wrote in his email instructions to us after he started the pool. But the pump suddenly stopped working the day after. We called him to tell him the pool pump had shut off, even though we had not come near it. He showed up at our house a few hours later, turned the pump on again, and explained that he had left the timer on because he was not wearing his prescription glasses the day before, and could not see well. His unapologetic tone was insulting. Patten's proposal included initial daily brushing of the pool, after replastering. Most pool experts recommend brushing once or twice a day for the first 14 days (we did not know this until a couple of weeks ago). We do not recall Patten's staff coming daily to brush our newly plastered pool; they may have come every other day or every three days, and only for a few days. Patten's proposal also included changing the GFCI, pool light bulbs and gaskets. That, in response to a problem identified in the pool inspection report we had given Bill. To this date, water condensation around the lights cause the GFCI to trip shortly after we turn them on. Patten did not address this problem - or perhaps the gaskets were improperly placed, who knows. We will have to pay another contractor to solve this problem. Bill's email instructions warned us "no swimming for one week". However, 3 weeks and $7,937.03 later, we still could not swim in our pool; and we were being charged extra for work that we understood was part of what we paid for. Also, Bill's email instructed us to "not put the cleaner in the pool for 2 weeks"; most pool experts (we later learned) warn against using wheeled devices within 28 days after replastering a pool because doing so sooner could cause wheel tracks to show on the pool finish. Someone from Patten put our Polaris cleaner in our pool on July 13, exactly 19 days from the date they started replastering our pool. On July 14, I went to Bill's office and left him a $6,026.03 check and a note saying we were less than satisfied with how the work was handled and the lack of communication. The next day I emailed him asking to not put salt in our pool (he said he would do so by July 17th, contradicting his own email instructions that said "no salt for 4 weeks"!). All we got was an email from him asking if we were switching to chlorine. No words from him since. One star b/c we texted him on 4 of July asking him what to do about the mosquito larvae and tadpoles breeding in our waterfall and he promptly replied (Clorox!).

R Pools did an amazing job and I highly recommend them. Most honest and straightforward…read more During the freeze we had many of our tiles pop off and had some plaster issues. I received four quotes to get my plaster and tiles done. We chose R Pools because CW was the most upfront didn't seem like they would come up with extra charges as a few other companies had in their contracts. The quote he gave was what we paid. When it came to the day to start there were some weather issues, but he contacted me first thing in the morning. CW was great, he communicated with me daily, made sure everyone was on task. Even with the delays due to the rain they finished in 4 days. CW then came out the morning the pool was finished filling and got it all started up. The crew that works with R Pools was great, and they cleaned up after themselves. So, if you are looking for any pool service for maintenance, repair, or renovations, you won't be disappointed with R Pools.

We chose R Pools after receiving a promotion in the mail that stated:…read more "$25.00 Full Service Weekly Pool Cleaning NEW CUSTOMERS ONLY Visit rpoolsllc.com for other weekly service programs. Call for details. Expires 5/26/25" I called for details and asked specifically what the price would be AFTER the promotion ends. I was told that nothing would change, that's the price moving forward, forever! It was too good to be true, my husband and I thought. The guy shows up to clean our pool and we ask him the same thing. In our minds there must be a catch. But he too said, nope, that's the price, it will not change. The first payment posted and it was $108 so I called them and they stated they charge monthly. Phew! Ok so far so good!!! Next month the payment was $204!! So again, I called and asked what the extra charge was. The lady stated that the $25 a week was a promotion that only lasts the first month. I told her that we had been lied to twice, and she apologized and said well it states that the price will increase on the invoice. Sure enough the invoice stated it would increase after the first month. However, the person I talked to on the phone originally and the guy who showed up at my pool blatantly lied to my face. Just sad. Very bad business. It's wrong to lie and deceive people. It's just not nice. I hope that this stops because I'm sure the people working for you would like to work for honest people. The work however, was good, but I can find cheaper service elsewhere.
