Building a swimming pool does not have to be a complicated process. We've been building Bay Area swimming pools and spas since 1969 and know exactly how to make the process as simple and easy as possible for every homeowner or commercial customer. Whether you come to Royal Pools with a dream already in mind, or a blank slate; designing your project is the first step to realizing your dream of owning a beautiful swimming pool or spa.
After you reach an agreement with one of our estimators, your paperwork is begun at the office. Next, and we take pride in telling you this, we send out a professional draftsman to measure your property and thus ensure accuracy and mistake free work. We utilize this procedure to catch any oversights that may have occurred.
That depends on several variables, including the size of the pool, the landscape and the time of year. Most of our jobs take six to 10 weeks to complete. The permitting process can extend the project time (start of construction) depending on the city or county you live in. The pool size can be customized to fit most if not all backyard spaces.
Royal Pools uses state-of-the-art swimming pool and spa construction materials, techniques, and equipment, and we guarantee our work with a comprehensive warranty. Our team will help you design and build a custom pool or spa to match your needs and will be enjoyed by your family for years to come. We aren't keen on every new gadget that comes out for your pool.
Whether you are trying to create the perfect backyard environment, reduce operating and maintenance costs through the ease of wireless controls, Hayward is your single source solution.

I would have given 0 if there was an option . It's been almost 12 months since we signed the contract ( during COVID 19 time ) and was well assured by sale executive to get the work done in 4-5 months max . First it took almost 6 months to get the approval from the city with the plan ( partial delay from city ) but also because of inaccurate / completeness of documentation , and super slow response . We as owner had to constantly follow up with almost no communication from the pool company during this time .

Although we haven't hired them yet, they came out to provide a consultation and give an estimate and we greatly appreciated that there was no pressure whatsoever and Mike Blackburn took a lot of time with us and helped to guide us on what would be most feasible for our hillside area. He was doing the opposite of an "up-sell." Which shows he cares about the clients they serve, and not just how to get them to spend more, but to spend wisely. So while we are still on the fence about whether or not to invest in getting a pool, but if we do, we aren't even going to call anyone else

We recently had a pool put in and used Royal Pools. We had a great experience! We worked with Mitch, Brian, and Roberto. All of them did a great job of communicating and Roberto was a great project manager. Even after our project was delayed due to the Covid-19 shelter in place, Royal Pools did a great job of communicating and getting our project back on track. We didn't have a single issue with our project. Everything was clearly communicated to us and we were very pleased with how the pool turned out. I highly recommend Royal Pools.

The crews were beyond professional and complied with Covid safety regulations. Roberto, our pool contractor, was top notch. He went above and beyond to make sure our pool was completed in a timely manner. His communication was spot on and he truly was the best part of the project.
The hardest part of our process was the permit process but that fell on our county not Royal Pools. I would say the salesperson could have communicated with us better during our permit process.
We have recommended royal pools to two families now and we know they're in good hands.

Just recently passed our final inspection on our new in-ground pool by Royal. Special thanks to Curtis, our project manager, for staying on top of the details and helping us push for the sub-contractors to finish. The pool took longer than expected due to unforeseeable issues and Covid, but the final result is beautiful.

I hired Royal Pools to design and install a pool and hot tub in my backyard. I worked with Mike, Roberto and Brian. I am very happy with how the pool and hot tub turned out and the overall process. There were some delays due to COVID but what I appreciated most was that the team was always very communicative. I was never left in the dark as to what was happening. Because of the delays, it took a little longer than I would have liked, but in the end it was worth it for the quality of the product and the great customer service.

When we decided to install a swimming pool last year as it was suggested that water therapy would be highly beneficial for our son who has autism I contacted Royal Pools. Don came to our home last June to take measurements and he came up with a beautiful design for our backyard. There was no pressure and Don checked in with me from time to time to see if he could answer any questions. When we were ready we signed the contract in August.

I will say that Royal Pools in general is pretty good. We had a couple hiccups along the way, but I will say that Curtis in particular (the person who ran the project) did an amazing job. Super communicative, especially during these weird times. When we hit small issues (bound to come up with this large of project), he was super quick to resolve.

I contacted royal pool to create a pool in my back yard last year.
Mike designed the pool and helped us choose the materials. He didn't show you a mere rectangle on a paper. He listened to all our wishes, our budget and made something nice out of them. He was not pushy and gave practical advices.
We asked him for landscaper referrals. He gave us one name he likes to work with. Royal pools could do better in giving more name, as ultimately, we chose this landscaper and had only problems with him.
The digging part was done by Brian and his crew. He made sure to check with me for what I wanted

We had a great experience with Royal Pool! We contacted 4 business to get quotes, Royal Pool was the most professional and reliable. They were the ones that sent us the quote on time (some of them didn't even send the quote). They were clear with the quote and worked with our budget. There were a few tiny "hiccups" in the beginning with the sales person but nothing major, it was so small that we know it happens in any business. One thing we were impressed with is their professionalism, their knowledge and their materials' option. We were almost done (3 days away from getting

Be aware. This company is practicing discrimination, tons of hidden fees, and sketchy sales technics. I was trying to resolve multiple issues with the owner/manager Adam. During multiple calls, he was trying to reassure me that person of my age (somehow he knew that I am younger) is unable to state that Royal Pools is capable of making a mistake. They sold me the pool coping, delivered it, cut it to fit my pool cover, and refused to install saying that it was not included in our agreement (over $90k project, over $10k paid for pool cover and installation). Why did I pay for extra coping? The answer

I have not really worked with the company directly, but I contacted Adam's pool in Pleasanton and they sent me a sales rep to give me an estimate where on his email domain was Royal Pool, so I take it that is sort of DBA in the sough bay.
I know Adam's are reputable here in the bay area and has been around for so long, but if they continue to work with such reps as John Rafalsk he sure can drive them out of business.
We were literary chasing him to get an estimate and when he finally did, it was way overpriced. when we told him that we got a better offer from another reputable company

Expensive but MY GOODNESS does Royal build beautiful pools! So let's talk about service. We met Rick Swan 2 years ago when we got the "pool fever" after seeing our neighbors gorgeous pool (also built by Royal). Rick came to our home and took measurements and gave us a 3D rendering of our pool. We were reluctant to pull the trigger in 2017 and Rick did not pressure us - he just said "call me when and if you are ready". So sure enough a year passed and in July 2018 we called Rick again. He had saved everything and came right over and spray painted our grass where the

First off let me say I just love our pool and spa. The final product is great. There are a few design issues that were not well translated from the 3D rendering but nothing fatal.
The reason I gave such a low review for such a great pool is just how painful the process was. The salesman, Jim, was great. He took our ideas and gave us an awesome model. From there it was delay after delay and miss communication after miss communication.
Turns out the site foreman never received the 3D model to reference so there was a lot of design elements lost in translation. And our salesman was very hard to

Love Our Pool & Spa!!
Building a pool, at least for us, can seem complicated, overwhelming, & messy, but you have to make a mess to make something beautiful. There can be many setbacks which take time to resolve, & you need to be very patient. You will see a lot of activity for a few days, & then it may be weeks before the next phase starts.
We started our project in July 2017 & met with Mitchell. Mitchell visited our site location, listened to what we were looking to do, & drew up a plan. We were very happy with the design that Mitchell put together. The pool & spa design, size, lighting, &
