We had Maryland Pools do our pool in Central Maryland, and it was a very painful experience due to the poor communication and constant delays (which they typically blame on everyone but themselves. Other's have reported a positive experience with them, so I assume it depends on your sales guy and the project persoon they assign.

Sorry I couldn't give you a good one to go with!!!

Hi Lizzie - I just posted the same answer to "Slynn". We used a company named Pleasure Pools. Incredible service, everything was done on time or early. They kept us informed of each step and provided great information. You deal directly with the owner Paul Horichs. We used him because we had a friend who put in a pool and couldn't stop telling us how great he was. We have several other friends who have had to get attorneys involved to finish their pools, not us. Let me know if you need any other info.

Thanks, Pooldazed. Hope they will consider coming to the Eastern Shore...did you compare their prices with other builders?

Lizzie- We did compare their price to other builders and it was about 5% more expensive. Now the big difference is that he didn't nickel & dime me to death during the process. The pool was opened in 5/07 and if I call w/ a pool question or for advice he responds immediately. That's worth a lot to me. Let me know how it goes.
