**★★★★★ — HU-716786660, July 2019**

> When we had a broken pipe and couldn’t run filter the lady who answers phone at services was so helpful in keeping our pool maintained until it was fixed and the two men who came to check it out were very knowledgeable and also helpful.All were extremely friendly and nice.

**★★★★★ — Jane Perilll, Jan. 2017**

> I love my pool and all the work from Sparkle Pools!!  They been helpful with installation opening and closing and general maintenance

**★★★★ — abcdhen18, July 2016**

> Sparkle has serviced our pool for 3 years with each year increasing our relationship and quality of service. I am a new pool owner from the east coast that has many questions expecting fast responses. Our relationship has that now. In 2015 we had a new unground pool liner installed, there were some initial glitches with the initial order, but all managed professionally with a great final outcome. It was all completed in one day at the end of the season!
>
> 2016 our weekly pool service is great with the same staff who know the pool. They are courteous, clean and very good.  I now feel that we have a long term business relationship.

**★★★★★ — lowes63, July 2016**

> We hired Sparkle Pools about 13 years ago, based on several recommendations from friends and neighbors to build our inground pool.  They did everything they said they would do...and more!  From initial planning (bring YOUR ideas), through construction (yes...it WILL only take 2 days from shovel to running), to years of service, Sparkle Pools has been the best to work with.  (I have found their water sampling to be the easiest, cheapest, and quickest way to crystal clear water each spring.  They have the right name!)  Over the years we have been the ones to recommend them to many friends!
