Shawn will not pay his subcontractors on time or even at all. Lots of other reputable pool companies on this area. **★ — helgaa, April 2024** > Do not hire this company Shawn will tell you what you want to hear and then he will ignore all calls and texts when you need him to finish up poor work. We had a pool and landscaping done 22/23, patio has been an issue since he installed it..pavers not put in level, polymeric sand not setting, breaker for pool needed replaced was paid for called Shawn left another message with Shawn which he never returned so we called the electrician who did the job and was told he wasn't coming out because Shawn never paid him for the job. > It has been a real runaround dealing with this company and I would not recommend them to anyone. **★★★★★ — Jason, Jan. 2023** > We had our pool and stone work done by Shawn and his team last year. It took about 6 weeks from start to finish, and it turned out great! It was a horrible year for supply, which was a challenge but we got through it and we are very happy with the finished product. We would highly recommend them! **★★★★★ — CARGO CABBIE, Jan. 2020** > Quality work done at fair reasonable cost. Commercial Stone and concrete job: Our experience Dealing with Shawn from Tidal was nothing shorter than great. > Within 24 hours we received an initial rough idea on costs and options available. Meeting and getting drawings and ideas for our backyard was seamless. The stone work, design, execution was better than initially expected. Shawn's team was clean, friendly, offered high level workmanship and kept the construction site clean at all times from start to finish. We are 100% satisfied with the level of service provided as well as final product. 10 out of 10 ## Selected projects - [Guelph](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/guelph-pj-vj~3169131) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Rockwood](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/rockwood-pj-vj~5988062) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Aberfoyle](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/aberfoyle-pj-vj~5988071) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 4 - [Elmira](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/elmira-pj-vj~5988075) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 5 - [Pools](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/pools-pj-vj~6079128) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 94 [See all 5 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/swimming-pool-builders/tidal-pools-pfvwus-pf~1706148993) --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
