Justin and his team were very responsive, communicative helpful and prompt. Frankly whatever mobile app/platform they use for payment and quote approval leaves a lot to be desired and was the worst part of the entire experience. That said, they promptly fixed the issue and refunded the additional unapproved credit card surcharge. Note to management: I'd consider other payment systems/options if i were you.

Avoid at all costs!!

My service manager is Bobby, and he is training a whole crew in preparation for summer I imagine. Bobby is straight forward, efficient, welcomes questions, explains things and if you tell him something isn't quite right, he resolves it. Communication is terrific from Patriot. Sure, you get a standard readout of the service, but there will also be notes from the team answering your question, recommendations, etc. Sure, I'm new, only 2 months with them, but so far, stellar service.

This company has repeatedly no-showed and given poor cleaning service.

They left after repair with it not functioning correctly (air in the system which can damage unit) They came today for cleaning and left or just the same. I turned out off and guess what - leaking worse, not from filter. I assume this whole thing was to damage the new holler and blame us so they think they can charge us for yet another replacement whole unit next week. They are going to lose a customer of many years DO NOT HIRE THEM!

I rarely write reviews but unfortunately this warranted one as I had selected Blue Ocean due to…read moretheir high ratings. My time with Blue Ocean was so frustratingly disappointing. I worked with them for close to a year and had to ask them almost monthly to find a new person to clean our pool. The kids they hire just do not understand how cleaning pools work, and the owners, who were very nice, would agree that it is 'hard to find good work these days'. For example, the pool cleaners would constantly brush the pool before vacuuming then the dirt would settle back in. The pool floor was always left dirty. I even would go out and speak with them to no avail. I can see them on the cameras doing it this way which was always so frustrating. Additionally, more often than not, they would neglect to leave chlorine in the bowl. No less than 5 times did I find the chlorine tablet sitting on top of the basket, which caused algae to grow The only reason I did not fire them sooner was because one of the pool cleaners had chipped tiles in our hot tub and the company promised to fix it. It took many, many, many months for them to finally fix the tiles which is appreciated (and why they are rated two stars instead of one). Ultimately, I hate to leave a negative review but this was very warranted. Do not use them for your service, especially if you are very passionate about a clean pool.

I'd much rather support this small business than other larger companies that don't care as much, are careless an not as attentive and you don't get the same level of service. Whenever he's done with service, you get a nice email summary with before and active pictures and details on what he's done and what levels your pool chemicals are at.

We hired Poolie in April again this year to replace our pump and provide weekly cleaning. While I…read moreclearly communicated that the pool was drained, the install technician seemed unaware of the pool's status upon arriving. We asked for a cleaning before water was added. No two technicians understood our service details because of poor communication within. The install technician provided vague instructions regarding valves and power without ensuring I understood the process. We paid the service diagnostic fee, new pump, and $450 for a cleaning before set up. The results were below average. Days later, the pool tech arrived but was confused that the pool was empty, complaining it was harder to clean. He did not scrub or spray down any part of our plunge pool and basin. Marked it done. A layer of dirt remained on the floor, vents were still full of debris, and tiles remained dirty. I thought since we are giving this company around $4500 for this project, a complete clean up was guaranteed for our small pool that was kept clean all year. Poolie did send out an employee (sorry I can not remember) to make this right. He also set up getting the pool filled and explained everything in detail. We appreciate his effort in resolving many of the issues. These issues reflect a broader pattern of internal miscommunication. We frequently encountered problems with weekly cleanings being pump left on dry prime and baskets not being emptied. I was receiving sales calls for weekly service with an empty pool and no pump. It appears to be no central point of contact familiar with our account history. We have met some knowledgeable and friendly staff at Poolie, it was just inconsistent. I wish them the best.
