I've been meaning to post this review for some time. I just want to thank the SoCal Pool Boys team for remodeling my parents' pool and for keeping it beautiful week after week. Special thanks to Robert, Santiago, and Luciano. They're a great team and truly care about their work. read more

SoCal Pool Boys - Pool & Hot Tub Service Near Me - Pasadena , California

Look at this pool. This is what it looks like after a FULL MONTH of "service" from this company. All they do is lie. They promised to come, they promised to fix it, they promised proof of service -- every single time it was "I'll send it, I'll send it." Nothing ever came. Because they never actually did the work. I took down my last negative review because they promised everything would be fixed on Friday. Friday came. No one showed up. Again. I'm done. I'm moving to another company because my pool is destroyed and I can't keep giving chances to people who only know how to lie. This review stays up. I don't care what they promise this time . I've heard every version of it already. Please do not trust this company. Stay far away if you care about your pool. UPDATE in response to the company's reply: The company claims their team came out yesterday. They did not. I was home all day, and I have security camera footage that confirms no one came to my property ，yesterday or any other day. They are now using one lie to cover another. They claim they serviced the fountain "as a courtesy" yesterday. No one was here. They claim it takes 24-48 hours for water to clear. That would be relevant if anyone had actually shown up to treat it. They also say the fountain wasn't part of my agreement. Forget the fountain for a moment！ look at the POOL. My pool is half green. The pool IS in my agreement, and it looks worse than I did a month ago when I signed up. In one full month of "service," I have: * Never received a single service report, despite asking for proof basically every day * Never received before/after photos or any documentation * Watched my pool turn completely green And now they want to be paid for a month of service that never happened, and they're framing my refusal to pay as "unfair." What's unfair is being charged for work that wasn't done and being lied to repeatedly when I asked for proof. Please stay away from this company.Green pools don't lie. The absence of any report or photo in a full month doesn't lie. They say the fountain (small pool) wasn't in my agreement. And here's the part that shows they either don't understand pools or are pretending not to: ALL THE WATER ON THIS PROPERTY IS INTERCONNECTED. It flows between the pool and the fountain. If one section turns green, the whole system turns green. You cannot "service the big pool" while ignoring a green fountain feeding into the same water . that's not how pools work. Here's the part that should concern any potential customer: they sent me a photo of the small pool just now completely green and said NOTHING. No "hey, this looks bad, do you want us to add it to your service?" . They just let it sit and turn green for a month. That's not a service issue , that's a character issue. A responsible company would tell the owner: "This isn't part of your current plan, but it's deteriorating fast, would you like us to take care of it?" Instead, they watched it get destroyed and said nothing until I brought it up. And the reason I didn't notice it because they never sent me any picture the entire month until I complain right now. So if they have sent a picture of how green and how much it was destroyed earlier, I would have noticed it and asked them to take care of it as well. Now this damage is irreversible. And then there's the big pool which IS in my agreement and is also half green after a full month of service because they completely ignore the fountain that share the same water with the pool. Completely ridiculous !!! read more

I am beyond grateful to the SoCal Pool Boys team! We initially called them in August 2024. After negotiating, we finally decided to move forward in early September. I anticipated the pool would not be ready until the following year. However, I am astonished with how fast this entire process really was! We officially passed our final inspection on January 3rd 2025! The pool is absolutely gorgeous and I cannot wait to host friends and family this year! If you are looking for a pool company that knows what they're doing, give SoCal Pool Boys a call! read more

SoCal Pool Boys did a phenomenal job building the pool of our dreams! My husband and I looked at three different pool companies, but we are so glad to have chosen this family business! Their professionalism, communication and amazing craftsmanship has left us very satisfied customers! From signing the agreement to finally taking our first swim We have done some small remodeling in our home, but nothing to this magnitude. Let me tell you, our pool construction process was very smooth and organized! The city did throw us a curveball with the property line, but we were able to get everything resolved in a timely matter. Thank you to Robert, Santiago and the rest of the SoCal Pool Boys team! We are so excited for the pool parties coming this 2025!! read more

We originally planned to go with plain plaster, but Robert suggested a mini pebble finish in a soft blue color, and it turned out stunning. His attention to detail is exceptional, and everyone who visits compliments the look! read more

We have been using SoCalPoolBoys services for more than 15 years beginning with the Robert Rodriguez SNR and continuing with his son Robert Rodriguez JR. We have a salt water pool. They are both professional & highly competent. Unfortunately we are relocating to N CA and must say goodbye. They provide regular service and respond quickly when things go wrong between cycles ( as things will go wrong from time to time ). Each service included chemical testing , cleaning and salt solution %. A major filter cleaning was performed about each 6 months and we were always kept informed about any other wear & tear issues as , after all , a pool is run by mechanical equipment such as pool pumps etc and they do wear out from time to time. They are priced competitively and we highly recommend them . This is a family run business and they are extremely nice people . read more

I have been a customer with SoCal Pool Boys for over three years and Ive always been quite content with their outstanding service. One Friday three weeks ago l awoke to my pool having a noticeable amount of water loss and discolouration just the weekend before l was to host a " pool party" so my anxiety went extremely high . I immediately called the SCPB office and expressed my frustration. Robert was able to come out on such short notice , did a full inspection until he defected a leak . He proceeded to fix it filled my pool and made it all beautiful again by that same evening. I cannot express my gratitude enough for his time and efficiency ! I highly recommend these guys !! read more

Best pool service company I've ever dealt with, they have my pool looking like drinking water

If I can give 100 stars to SoCal Pool Boys I would. I have been shopping around for pool service for weeks and thank goodness, I finally came across their eye-catching postcard flyer in the mail. Not only is their price the best in town, it's probably the best prices in all of Southern California, I know cuz I called them all. From the moment I first scheduled their service, they have been so responsive and easy to communicate with by phone, text and whatever platform I was comfortable with. Robert, the son of the father and son duo came to the house and he could not have been nicer and respectful. Even my dog who came within 5 feet from him and who barks at EVERYONE didn't even snarl one single bit. I was shocked. Robert was absolutely professional and knowledgeable and explained exactly what he will be doing, what to expect and when he will finish. He cleaned my pool filter like no other and did a FANTASTIC job. You can see on the picture how filthy, gunky and green my filters were which I have neglected to do for over a year. He was so thorough and really cleaned those filters like it was his own system. I couldn't believe how he was able to restore them. Robert also disassembled my backwash valve and lubricated it simply because I mentioned to him that its handle has been getting more and more difficult to maneuver (push and pull) which was causing a leak. Now my backwash works perfectly - like new. Who does that for their customers? Not very many, that's for sure! My filter system is now functioning the best it's ever been! For this, I am absolutely grateful! If you are in the market for pool maintenance service, look no further! SoCal Pool Boys are your guys! read more

Prior to working with SoCal Pool Boys, we had some frustrating experiences with other pool maintainers that had left our pool in bad shape. When we contacted SoCal Pool Boys for a quote for resurfacing our pool, we were wary, but Robert came to assess the situation and immediately put us at ease. He was knowledgable, professional, and really kind and courteous. We were able to move forward quickly with the project. The resurfacing was completed in less than a week and turned out beautiful. We also started using SoCal Pool Boys for regular maintenance, my interactions with the whole family are always lovely. We're really happy with their work, and highly recommend them! read more

Robert who I talked to was really nice and seemed to know my system really well (Salt Chlorine Generator). I have a Hayward and it was working great and my pool water was balanced when SoCal Pool Boys took over. Robert just said I needed a little more conditioner. The problems came when he had a guy assigned to my house who started pouring chlorine into my pool every week. He even did this once without checking the water first. I checked the water after the second time he poured the chlorine into my salt system pool and the chlorine was sky high. I talked to Robert about it and he said they don't pour chlorine into salt system pools unless it's very cold out. He assured me the guy assigned to my house wouldn't do it again. Well the next week the pool guy did it again. I then stopped services and hired another pool person who came in and confirmed that my chlorine levels were way too high. read more

We live in the Eaton Canyon Fire zone which caused debris from the ashes to contaminate our swimming pool. The pool water was turning green which had us worried about mosquitoes setting up home in our pool. My husband Ezequiel searched Google for pool replastering and found SoCal Pool Boys. He looked at their rating of 5 stars and gave them a call and was impressed by their professionalism. Ezequiel explained to Robert, who is the CEO of SoCal Pool Boys exactly what needed to be done. Our pool pump needed to be replaced, tile to be cleaned, and most of all to be replastered. It took a week for Pool Boys from start to finish to complete the restoration of our pool. We are more than pleased with the quality of the work they did to have our pool sparkling and crystal clear. Our pool light did not work. However, with their pool service experience the light is now working. We cannot say enough about how the restoration of our swimming pool is far better than several other pool companies we have used in the past. The pricing was fair and competitive compared to other pool companies. We like the fact SoCal Pool Boys is family owned. Thank you for your service, E.L. read more
