Just like you, we were thinking to ourselves, "who are we going to TRUST to completely clear out an…read moreexisting backyard to the earth and build a paradise oasis that only we can dream and vision in our minds?" We called Shasta Pools, Presidential Pools & Spas, and California Pools & Landscape to schedule an onsite consultation. Shasta Pools never contacted us, but we did get a call to schedule an onsite appointment with both Presidential Pools and California Pools for Friday, June 30, 2023. On the same day, I met with Karin Tierney (Backyard Design Specialist) from Presidential Pools and Christian Pierre (Designer) from California Pools. After the initial visit (June 30th), I never heard back from Karin Tierney of Presidential Pools, not one follow up or anything. Christian from California Pools immediately emailed me two days later with images for ideas and started creating our paradise oasis. Christian Pierre was professional, engaged, listened to our stories and dreams, asked us open-ended questions and his communication was excellent. Within a week, Christian presented us a video of the first pool designed. We made some minor changes and then he presented us the final video that turned our vision into a digital paradise oasis. I couldn't believe it, the video was literally what we visioned and dreamed, but the cost was above what we expected. We reminded ourselves, "You only live once." If this home is going to be our last, we don't want any regrets or future projects later, lets do this project right one last time. We said, "Let's Go!" We confirmed the project with California Pools and shortly after, we were introduced to Stephen Dreher (Lead Construction Manager). Stephen was a gentleman, very easy to talk to, a great listener, and a professional who follows through with action. Demolition started February 2024. Throughout the 2024 year, various construction teams came in to do their part of the project. Stephen kept in touch with me weekly with updates and seeking any questions from me. He was ALWAYS available via text, phone calls and in person. We made some changes during the project and Stephen was on top of processing Change Orders and updating the construction teams. Neighborhoods are made up of many types of people, and even with HOA approvals and city permits, you will find out which neighbors enjoy complaining and making it known that they are not happy people. No worries though, with Stephen's professional confidence and patience, he presented himself to these neighbors to answer any questions or address their concerns. Once he made himself available to these party poopers, the complaints lessened. After 12 months of construction, the pool project came to an end February 2025. I have to admit that making the decision to have California Pools & Landscape take on this project was one of the best decisions we ever made. The entire team that makes California Pools operate are ALL professionals and experts at what they do. The third party construction teams that work with California Pools were all professionals, execute precision work, and clean up their work when done. Stephen Dreher was in communication with all third party teams. Having the pool of our dreams seen on a video and built in our very own backyard is a dream come true. California Pools has converted our beautiful backyard (Casita Talasera) to "The Happiest Place On Earth." I will never say it enough though, THANK YOU Stephen Dreher for standing by our side from start to finish. Thank you for your honesty. Thank you for representing California Pools with pride and dedication. Even though Stephen loves California Pools and loves what he does, he always puts the customer first. I will honestly miss the daily/weekly interactions with Stephen, and his professional character. If you would like to discuss in detail or ask any questions about my experience with California Pools, feel free to message me. I'm confident that you will not regret choosing California Pools for your Pool Project. Sincerely, Frank A. Celaya

I'm not going to go into detail, but they screwed a lot of things up and then just give me some free Leslie pool coupons to try and make up for it. The workers that they had on my property were making inappropriate sexual comments about me and saying I must be a stripper and that's how I was able to pay for my pool...Whatever....Well my fence fell down and I have been calling them for the last month begging them to come and fix it. I had called someone not related to Shasta to come and fix and they said that it was not installed properly, when I finally was able to talk to someone yesterday they told me I am out of warranty. I am reporting them to the city and I am outraged. My fence would have not fallen down if they had concrete in the post but because they did not do that I now do not have a pool fence and I have a two year-old and a five-year-old. I have literally cried to them on the phone explaining how dangerous this is for my children. I do not have the money to buy a new pool fence. Can anyone guide me on what I should do next?
