Swimming Pools
June 2007
We are looking for a reliable, good pool service company with
experience with a salt water chlorine generator system. Our
current pool service company has delivered somewhat spotty
service for the past year, and I'm hoping we can find a better
one. We live in Oakland. Any recommendations would be most
appreciated!
I would love to know who you were using. We have been looking for a pool
service
as well. I have recently attempted to set up a service visit with J&G
services. I put in
at least 6 calls to them, asking for an appointment and leaving my name and
#. I
was told each time that the local rep has my info and would contact me
shortly. It
has been a month since the first try! I am glad that they never returned my
call-I
would imagine that their services would continue to stink! On a further note,
my
husband asked the owner of our pool supply store for a recommendation of a
pool
service. He frowned and said that the majority are not to be trusted. They
sometimes go as far as breaking some things and then charging for
replacements!
So I'm not sure where to go from here?! Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
Good
Luck!

I need to renovate my pool, located in Orinda. We plan to
resurface, re-tile, add a bench - and possibly shallow out the
deep end. If you have worked with an excellent pool
contractor, I'd so appreciate the recommendation.
Thank you!
We completely refurbished our pool in Moraga last year. We used Superior Pool and
Spa
Service. They were great. We had the pool drained, replastered, retiled, added a
mosaic, and had new coping put in around the edge. Their number: 925-706-9220

I have had the worst luck with finding a reliable swimming
pool service. I have a swimming pool at my house and
desperately need a recommendation for weekly service.
Someone to check the chemical levels, sweep and clean the
pool, check the equipment and provide general
maintenance. The pool service I have had rarely shows up,
never returns calls and is extremely difficult to reach.
I'm desperate. With so many homes in the Bay Area with
pools and apartments and condos with pools does anyone
know of a reliable service?
I greatly appreciate a recommendation.
Thank you.

We have used Hercules Pool Care for the last 10 years, and
have been very pleased with the work. Tracy is honest,
punctual, reasonable, and does a great job maintaining both
pool and spa. He has done a better job than any of the
previous companies we used. He can be reached at 510-410-
7273.
