### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Nick, Sept. 2023**

> He is an outstanding designer.  Great communicator.  He listened well to what we wanted to made it happen.  Highly recommended.

**★★★★★ — Susan Gertson, July 2018**

> Our pool is beautiful!!!!! Jayme did such a fantastic job of translating our vision and desires - the pool and surrounding area fit the space and aesthetic perfectly. It is truly a retreat! He is easy to work with and we love how everything turned out!

**Comment from J. Allen Designs:**

> Thank you so much for your kind words Susan!  I greatly appreciate it!

**★★★★★ — User, June 2018**

> Jayme did a fantastic job on our pool!  The finished product was even more beautiful than the incredible 3D video that Jayme produced for our initial approval that we couldn't stop watching.  He was so easy to work with and made the entire process, which was our first endeavor ever in building a pool, a joy.  I know that realtors will tell homeowners that "they'll never recoup their investment on a pool" but Jayme's design is so magnificent on this one, that my husband and I honestly believe that his pool would be a huge selling factor should we ever decide to sell our home.  I cannot recommend Jayme Allen highly enough!

**Comment from J. Allen Designs:**

> Thank you so much for fabulous review!  I really appreciate it!

**★★★★★ — ashmayo1, Nov. 2017**

> Jayme is a great pool designer! He was very patient with us in designing our pool. The designs were really cool to see too because hit was grafted on a computer and had 3D images. He is very professional, honest, and our pool looks amazing!!

**Comment from J. Allen Designs:**

> Thank you so much for the kind words and the review!

**★★★★★ — J Spalvieri, Nov. 2017**

> Jayme was great to work with while we were designing our pool.  He was very receptive to our ideas and never pressured us to rush decisions or bust our budget.  He designed exactly what we were wanting.  We love our pool and we would definitely work with Jayme again!

**Comment from J. Allen Designs:**

> Thank you for the kind words and the review Mr. Spalvieri!

**★★★★★ — Patrick Waddell, Oct. 2017**

> Jayme was great!  He listened to the input we provided upfront and created a design that was spot on.  He gave us the 3D model and even created a YouTube video of the project that "flew" around the yard from all angles and even changed from day to night so we could see how things would look with the lights on at night.  Great attention to detail and seemed to really care about getting us a pool we were going to love.  The actual pool turned out great.  Although we've only had it for a little over a month the amount of compliments we've received thus far has been amazing.  If I were to ever do it again, I would find Jayme for my design.

**★★★★★ — Keith Rogers, Jan. 2017**

> Jayme is a great designer and was able to take our concepts and turn them into a reality. He provided some great views and ideas that really completed the project and made the outdoor space as effective as it could be. We would highly recommend him for any pool and/or outdoor project.

**★★★★★ — Jaggers Home Design, Dec. 2016**

> The pool designs that Jayme creates are absolutely amazing.  He takes his clients dreams and makes them come to life. Hands down, Jayme is one of the best pool designers in the state.  I highly recommend him to anyone looking to build a pool.

**Comment from J. Allen Designs:**

> Thank you so much for the kind words and review!  I appreciate it!

**★★★★★ — Crystal Nance, Oct. 2015**

> We highly recommend J. Allen Designs for your outdoor living project.  Jayme is very personable and easy to work with, and excels in watershape design at the highest level.  We wanted our patio and pool to have a touch of Mediterranean in its overall design, and with his immaculate attention to detail, our finished project by far exceeded our expectations.  Jayme was in constant communication during the entire project ensuring that we were staying within our budget and satisfied with every step of the process.  We most certainly will use J. Allen Designs for any future projects.

**★★★★★ — yeagerj23, Oct. 2015**

> I would highly recommend Jayme for your pool design. He took our ideas and created exactly what we had in mind. The design exceeded our expectations and his customer service really set him apart from the others. He is a knowledgeable professional who will go above and beyond to ensure you are completely satisfied from start to finish.

**★★★★★ — lgillokc, Nov. 2014**

> Jayme's professionalism throughout the entire design/build process was outstanding.  He designed a beautiful pool for our family that has exceeded all our expectations.  We look forward to years of fun and enjoyment.  I would definitely recommend Jayme to anyone who asks.
>
> Thanks Jayme!!

**★★★★★ — elainenordhues, Feb. 2014**

> Jayme completed a pool project that had been botched, then abandoned by a previous contractor.
> He listened to what we wanted, and then designed a pool to repair the gaping hole in our backyard. It fit in beautifully with the existing landscape, and was exactly how we dreamed it could be. The project was well coordinated, on budget, and on time, with no surprises. His enthusiasm for our pool project and his professionalism certainly added to our optimism. We were thrilled with the results.

## Community Q&A

**Q: What material is the pool tile?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What did you use for the pool tile?  Looking to make it as natural as possible and not draw attention to it.

A: I used a green tile from Master Tile.  We did not want to see the tile, so we chose one to blend with the interior finish color perfectly.

**Q: Tile color** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you tell me the tile make and color?

A: The tile is Sicis Tile from Cactus Stone & Tile in AZ, and the color is Fern 3.    Thank you!

**Q: Tile** *(in Photo Questions)*

Beautiful pool! Can you tell me the name of the glass tile you used and the color of the pebble tec finish ? Thank you

A: The tile is Sicis Tile from Cactus Stone & Tile in AZ, and the color is Fern 3.  Also the Pebble Tec color is Blue Lagoon.  Thank you!

**Q: love the fire fountain** *(in Photo Questions)*

can you give me a price on this feature and detailed list of items. is there anything that you do not supply. how is the fire fuelled. are there ongoing costs associated to this fountain

A: Hi Mark, thank you for the inquiry.  This fountain is a custom feature that consists of many different variables and prices can vary depending on the site and materials and equipment used.  The fountain itself is a concrete structure that is connected to the pool built by myself and Blue Haven Pools of Oklahoma City.  The fire bowl is fueled by Natural Gas (and the on going costs depend on how much you use).  The lights are Hayward Colorlogic LED.  If you are interested in building a similar feature and pool please contact me at 405-844-7500.  Thanks! Jayme

**Q: what color is the plaster and inside pool tile?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Hi Stacey,  the interior finish of this pool is Pebble Fina (by Pebble Tec) and the color is Emerald Galaxy.

**Q: Pool stone** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you tell me the materials you used? Is this rock or a concrete?

A: Hi, the material used is an Arizona Moss flagstone which is natural stone.  Thanks!
