Pool Trends knocked our pool out of the park. Great on all levels. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a pool. Wade answered every question and provided us with exactly what we wanted. Nick their head superintendent is a perfectionist and will NOT cut any corners with his installation.

Really can't say enough about how positive our experience was with Wade, Nick, and the entire crew. Building a pool can be quite stressful and expensive! All along the way I knew I could call Wade with any questions or concerns and he would immediately alleviate them. They were very good about setting expectations on completion and even finished the job two weeks earlier than promised! The workmanship is top notch, they were very consultative when I needed to reduce the budget, the workers were professional at all times, and the time Wade spent providing me with "pool school" was more than ample. I would highly recommend them to others and cannot wait until they get their service side of the business going so I can use them for winterizing when the time comes. Thanks again!

This is the 5th house we've had a pool to and installed, Pool Trends was by far the BEST POOL BUILDER we ever used. Pricing was up front with no surprises, communication was great, the showed up when they said they would and finished on time too! The final product has been perfect and we love everything about it. I can't say enough about Wade and his CREW. THEY ARE GREAT TO WORK EVEN AFTER THEY'RE DONE> 5 Stars

After having several companies telling me I needed to tear out and start over on my pool. Pool trends came in and offered me a solution to get up and running this season and future plans on how to stage transitions to reach my ultimate goals. I was very pleased with their efficiency and professionalism. I have recommended them to friends and family! I would consider them to do your pool!

We had a pool installation from Pool Trends in 2018. The quality, timeliness, and customer service was exceptional. We enjoyed our first full year of swimming and enjoyed every moment. Wade and his crew install quality products and open and close our pool. Very trustworthy folks you can depend on. They were here every day until our pool was finished. From the start Wade explained everything to us about the installation and products he uses. Very informative and always answers his phone or text for any questions. I would do it all again with Pool Trends.

Pool Trends installed our Pool in May of 2017 that my wife had waited 20+ years for and she couldn't have been happier with the experience we had with the construction and the finished product. We use Pool Trends to close and open our pool each year, which they have just finished opening for the 2019 season. If your in the market for a pool make sure and give Wade a call before you make your final decision.
