Pool & Spa Professionals in New Hartford, CT

“I met David Katz when I was interviewing landscape architects for a pool and spa I wanted to build on a property I'd recently acquired in the Hudson Valley. I'm a business person myself and very careful when choosing who I work with. Accordingly, I interviewed 5 different architects before choosing to go with Elite. Everyone I met with was talented, but David Katz was on a different level. Whereas others would walk the property and talk about what they thought, after I'd walked the property with David and we had talked, he started drawing. Within 15 minutes, I had a full rendition of what was clearly right for the property. If there were one theme to my relationship with Elite, it would be this--execution. The other architects talked vaguely of being able to get the pool done in 15 months or so. I told David I wanted to be swimming in thee months. He said I was crazy. I asked him if he could get it done. He said yes. Three months later, on the 4th of July weekend, my family was swimming. That's what's truly special about David and the Elite team--they can get the job done, on time, and on budget. Moreover, while I was forced to manage my house contractors daily, I didn't have to even think about Elite. They transformed our property in exactly the right way, and I didn't have to manage a thing. That has rarely happened to me before, and it was fantastic. Shortly after the completion of the pool and spa, I engaged Elite on another large scale project on the property. Just like the pool and spa, it was also done perfectly and perfectly on time and on budget. Elite (and in particularly, Mitch, David's son) continues to service our property and I suspect we'll build something great again in the future. I can't recommend the Elite team highly enough. If you want to do something great, they are your team.”

“Top notch customer service and quality...I've had 3 pools with my last 3 homes and haven't worked with anyone like this. I highly recommend Juliano's.”

“Drakeley Pool Company built our indoor pool and whirlpool in 2007 and has provided service since then. I find them to be knowledgeable and the staff is pleasant to work with. I have had good response time with service and with answering questions. We recently had to replace our pool pump and our downtime was minimized due to the speed of service.”

“Jim Dobson runs an awesome, hard working, amazingly fast and professional crew. The pool was installed in a very short period of time (less than 10 days). The entire crew was respectful, all gentlemen, especially important for a single woman acting as her own GC and construction manager. It's an 18x42, 33,000 gallon in ground salt water gunnite pool, finished in medium gray and capped with thermal bluestone, as well as bluestone tile inside capping the gunnite. Dobson's prices are MUCH lower than others in the area, he's been doing pools for about 40 years, however quality and craftsmanship were not compromised. These guys know pools. I chose to spend a bit extra and have the pool filled with spring water from a capped mountain spring the area since I didn't want tap/chlorine/flouride. I also own a Himalayan salt company, so used 800 lbs of pink fine grain to get the pool set up - it's been a therapeutic necessity, given that my construction project has gone on for 9 months!! Dobson was very helpful in educating me on the salt water pool equipment, etc, and since this is my first pool and I've put a lot into it, it was important for me to be educated on the proper way to care for the gunnite, keeping the water pristine etc. Five Full Stars. Great work, guys.”

“Great company to work with. We are new to the pool industry and were very nervous about being taken advantage of spending all of this money. They were on time very thorough and produced a spectacular product. My only advice is make sure you are very educated in pool systems and how they work. Also make sure you have everything in your orginal budget that you want or you will be dissapointed when you need to add.”

“A-1 Pools & Spas installed our in ground pool and above ground spa plus put in our beautiful decorative aluminum fence in Oxford, CT. They did a phenomenal job with it all and made it like a resort, which we used and loved hosting pool parties at! They were trustworthy in performing and doing what they promised and everything turned out wonderful! They also did our pool maintenance and opened and closed our pool every April in time for the kids to use it during spring break and in November after the snow started falling. Go with A-1 because they know what they are doing and are wonderful to work with.”

“Best pool design in the state! Built our pool 17 years ago as well as maintained it weekly. We are thoroughly satisfied customers. We would do it the same again.”

“Total Pool and Spa designed and built our free-form pool. They developed a clearly depicted design which we co-created and executed it beautifully. The project came in at budget and within the time frame which they had indicated. The job was quite intricate and required Total Pool & Spa to draw on additional resources such as for the landscape design, stone work, and construction of the pool house. In all cases these trade people were extremely proficient and very professional. The total effect of the pool makes it appear as if you came upon a hot spring. It begins as a stream, then feeds into the hot tub, which in effect fills up and spills over in a waterfall into the pool itself. Total Pool incorporated an island, a bridge, (which has water breaking over it) and the free-formed pool itself. Total Pool and Spa did an absolutely outstanding job! Total Pool also performs the maintenance on the pool. They are dedicated to keeping it beautiful and are extremely responsive to any problems that occur. From May through October, my family lives at the pool. We’ve since added other elements such as a beautiful stone island to provide cooking space and a flat screen TV. It really is our sanctuary! Thanks Total Pool & Spa!!”
