Ask for Adan! The “pool whisperer” was very helpful. I tried to give Hamlin’s smaller competitors a chance, but they either didn’t show up, missed their appointment, or tried to upsell me new equipment over the phone without even looking at my situation. (They shall remain nameless, but most incorporate animal names). Hamlin is apparently the only pro service in the valley.

Critical: Quality
This is the worse company I have ever encounter. They charge me with 125.00 just to send an "inspector" to collect a water sample and did nothing at all, they are very disorganized I called several times and they just did not solve the problem, wich was cleaning the pool. I regret calling them . They stole my money literally !!!!

We contacted Hamlin Pools several times these past few months requesting an estimate on re-plastering our pool. The company never returned a phone call or did anything to try and help us out with our pool. Do not attempt to hire them for any of your pool request. They do not return phone calls or make any attempt to schedule an appointment for any of your pool needs. Not worth the one star that I had to rate. Worst service ever.

To be fair, I have not actually contracted with them. I did call and they're pricey. I was told that they would need a $3k deposit and they would not be able to start until December 2021! And its May. I cannot speak about quality or professionalism. However, I feel comfortable using them versus some fly by night company.

I had horrible experience with Hamlin pools service recently. Their workers Rick and Rudy are very unprofessional and arrogant. They repeatedly cancelled scheduled appointments on me. When I called frontdesk about this, Rudy banged my house door and left. Because of their ignorance, my high end plants died despite repeatedly educating them how to fix spa valve next to plants. Hamlin pool is overpriced for the low level of service they provide. I will reconsider my pool service provider. They need to hire better knowledgeable and customer friendly workers who are atleast willing to listen and learn

On a post about migrant children being stored at a hotel in TX, Mrs. Taylor Hamlin commented "Detain? Sounds so oppressive and negative. Maybe "house" would've been a more appropriate word choice. That hotel stay was likely the most lavish accommodations those children had ever experienced". These children have been taken from migrant camp to migrant camp before being stuck in hotel rooms with often 10+ other children, and Mrs. Hamlin believes these children are NOT oppressed, but on some lux vacation. Shameful behavior and extremely unprofessional.

This review is related to our recent pool remodel by Hamlin Pools for our preexisting, “other company-built” pool. Hamlin began the rebuild in February 2020 and finished in April, completing the job within the anticipated timeline. From our first meeting with Taylor Hamlin in January, until May (including the one month of included Hamlin Pool Care) our experience with every Hamlin employee was amazing. Everyone was courteous, attentive to every detail, and respectful to our family members and property.

Hamlin built my pool, however, I needed some repairs on my equipment. I was verbally quoted the cost & sent an authorization to sign since it was over $500. The quote was for the verbal BUT they wanted to charge me an additional $100 telling me that what I was quoted. They charged my credit card without my authorization, never sent nor notified me they were charging me for the 10 minutes it took him to determine my repairs. I decided not to use them as I do not deal with DISHONEST BUSINESSES

Went today to buy a pool kit and spoke to John. He not only sold me only what I needed he also showed me how to use it step by step. He had superior costumer service skills and was very knowledgeable about all the products and procedures needed to keep my pool clean. Hope to do business soon THANKS!

Not to happy. I haven’t gotten a quote so how do you want me to rate you now? I bought this home with the pool in which you built in 2007 (I have the contract) the cool deck was uneven due to your workers leaving wood when the cement was poured and that was a huge mistake on your end, yet even though of that horrible mistake, that caused stress and anxiety I contacted you for a quote to remodel/update design and nothing yet still waiting for your employer to call
