I have found Jon to be a true student of all aspects of installation and plastering, constantly eager to learn anything that can improve the finished product for his customer. Jon is among a select few that I would rate as a master craftsman with regard to installation, water chemistry, and plastering.

I've given these guys enough chances. They resurfaced by pool in 2016 and did a great job. Very responsive to warranty issues at that time that needed fixing (minor rust spots in marcite). Now, in 2020, I called them to repair a rust spot on the surface of my spa rim. I needed to call three times to even get someone finally to come out and look at it. He was there 5 mins and said he needed to discuss with his deck/surface person and would get back to me. Crickets.
I called again and they had no record of who came out, our previous conversations, and said they would have someone call me back again. Nothing.no calls back. This company has become unprofessional, not responsive, and I can't recommend them.

What a very professional company. They coated our pool via Blue Haven Pools and Spas I can not say enough great thing about the professionalism and quality of work. they showed up on time and took their time to ensure it was done right even with the threat of rain. They did not rush the job. If they felt the rain was going to be an issue they would have packed it up and came back. They take pride in what they do and what it done right the first time. I highly recommend TemPools

Couldn't be happier with Tempool, they refurbished the pool, and whole patio cool deck! Workers were fabulous and knew their stuff! They were very reasonable with their prices and a huge selection to pick from. Working with George was a pleasure!

Temp Pool is a top notch company and my expectations where meet in every way with the finished product. I had accepted that I would probably have to repaint the acrylic pool deck when this project of a re-plaster was done. They used tarps and cleaned the pool deck at the end of each day on each phase of the job. I only had a few touch up spots to do when done no problem. Paul Oxboro was our salesman he was fantastic when dealing with changes we had to make along the way.
I'd like to Thank the following employees we meet. Paul in sales, David & Spider pool prep, Colton tile install, Tyler and crew decor tile install, the plaster crew "to many to list", David acid wash, Marcel electric, the start up crew Scott, Jeffery, Sandy. Patrick accounting & Brittany in the office. I also meet the owner John Temple he's a hard working individual and still goes to the job sites and works with the crews. His employees seem to have a lot of respect for him. I asked them and he was liked by all. Thank You, Rickey Josey.

Above and beyond! There aren't enough good things I can say about this company. I met with them to discuss interior plastering and startup for my pool. From the day the contract was signed, to a mere 4 days later the pool was up and running. Communication was top notch: I dealt mainly with George, who was very responsive, communicated the process well and made sure I understood what would happen and when.
He was fantastic! He answered all of my questions and always answered the phone when I called (which isn't always the case with other pool companies). The work they have done on my pool is of top level quality. They sent out a big team the first day to clean and plaster, and they were done before I knew it! Each subsequent worker that has been out has been very knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. If you need plaster work done on your pool, I would HIGHLY recommend Tempool. They're the tops!

I'm extremely happy! I don't have a pool yet, but Tempool's paver team came highly recommended, so after I had to have my pavers dug up to replace the septic tank. Tempool's team were extremely polite and got the job done in just a few hours. They were tidy and efficient and left my backyard in better shape then it was before. I will be installing a pool soon and will absolutely be using Tempool.
