Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I’ve had the pleasure of working with Poolside Designs on multiple projects, and they consistently deliver exceptional results. Their quality of workmanship is outstanding — from layout and design coordination to the final finishes, every detail is handled with precision and professionalism. The pools they build not only look incredible, but they’re constructed with the durability and craftsmanship we expect on our custom homes. We value trade partners who take pride in their work and stand behind it — Poolside Designs absolutely does. We look forward to continuing our partnership on future projects.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Had an incredibly positive experience working with Poolside Designs. Andrew and Hannah listened carefully to our wishlist, patiently explained the options and executed a design that was beyond our expectations. Scott ensured all the details were completed to a high degree and we’ve used the pool almost daily since it was completed in March. Many thanks to the whole team!

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Much like other people, I don’t normally feel compelled to write a review unless I’m extremely satisfied or extremely displeased. Fortunately this was because of the first. I did not, like other reviews, work with Derek Dixon. So, I cannot speak on him one way or another. I worked with Scott Victorine. He was unbelievable the whole way through. He listened to what we wanted, made some suggestions to try and help make our life easier. Walked me through why they were doing things so I understood the process. I interviewed roughly 8 different companies, and all of them seemed to be able to put a hole in the ground, but none of them had Scott. I can’t speak on other peoples’ experience, but my pool was worth what it was because of his due diligence and ability to continue to help when I was in need. Everyone looking for a pool may be able to get a pool built, but it’s the person’s experience that makes it worth it, and my experience with Scott was second to none.

They are very professionally and respond to all our calls and texts in a timely manner. When we had questions or concerns, someone showed up to address them in a timely manner. All our concerns we minor. We worked mainly with Derick during the construction phase and Andrew during the design phase. They were very helpful and accommodating to our requests. I recommend them 100%. They are very professional and their work is clean.

Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. If you are thinking about building a pool know 2 things...it won't be cheap, and you need patience. And if you want to make the entire process as stress free as possible....give Poolside Designs a call. Derek Dixon and his team are true professionals. Derek said 21-24 weeks from start to finish....and he was spot-on! Any issue, any question....Derek was there 100% of the time making my wife and I always feel we made the right decision. Poolside Designs provided us multiple designs/layouts to get us to the product we wanted. During construction and building....Derek only aligns himself with the best support teams in the area...excavation, tiling, framework, gunite, electrical, plumbing, etc. We had selected another company originally who started to mislead us right after contract. We fired him and went right back to Poolside who was slightly more expensive but was completely trustworthy. Integrity and ethics are everything.
