Over the years the landscape company grew and the dairy operations diminished. By 2003, Rhine Landscaping had grown to more than 50 employees. Today, Rhine Landscaping continues to grow with experienced landscape architects, designers, construction managers, masons, carpenters, and maintenance crews on staff. For over a decade, Rhine was a subcontractor for other pool builders. During this time, Jay noticed clients were frustrated, having to make numerous phone calls to the many different companies involved sometimes waiting weeks for a response back. With Jay’s experience and knowledge of how to treat customers the right way, he founded Rhine Pools. Clients deal with one project manager, and receive direct answers and feedback from this person in a timely fashion. Rhine Landscaping has eliminated the need for additional contractors. They pride themselves on their ability to perform a majority of the construction with their own workforce. A pool is more than just a place to cool off; it's the centerpiece of an outdoor living experience that can bring years of pleasure to homeowners, family, and friends. Instead of the focus being just on the pool, many of Rhine Pools custom designs include, patios, decks, shade structures, fireplaces, outdoor kitchens, water features, plantings, lighting, and more. Landscaping and hardscaping elements enhance a pool, and Jay and his crew possess those talents and years of experience. Rhine has earned one of the most respected names in the landscaping industry and continues to strive to provide excellent products and service. If you are looking for a new swimming pool, landscaping, or hardscaping call Rhine Pools today. Our experienced architects and designers can turn your dreams into a reality. ### Services Provided - Swimming Pool Construction - Swimming Pool Design - Pool Deck Design & Construction - Pool Lighting Installation - Pool Remodeling - Custom Hot Tubs - Pond Construction ### Areas Served - Baltimore - Eldersburg - Reisterstown - Westminster - Garrison - Mount Airy - Sykesville - Cooksville - Marriottsville - Woodbine - Woodstock ## Business Details | Field | Value | | --- | --- | | Business Name | Rhine Pools | | Address | 12885 Old Frederick Road, Sykesville, Maryland 21784, United States | | Phone | (410) 442-2445 | | Website | http://www.rhinepools.com | | License Number | mhic\# 121739 | | Followers on Houzz | 28 | **Social profiles:** - Facebook — www.facebook.com/rhinelandscaping - Blog — www.rhinepools.com ## Contact - **Houzz profile:** [Rhine Pools](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/swimming-pool-builders/rhine-pools-pfvwus-pf~881512665) - **Website:** http://www.rhinepools.com - **Phone:** (410) 442-2445 ## Credentials **Certifications & Awards** - Voted best of Howard County by readers of Howard Magazine; 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, 2019 ## Reviews **Overall rating: 5.0 out of 5 — 1 review** ### All 1 review **★★★★★ — Chris Varlotta, Jan. 2018** > These guys are pros from start to finish. Jay and his team were great to work with. He and his designer Rebecca took the time to meet with us to make sure the design was exactly what we wanted, then followed up multiple times throughout the process to ensure it was done right. The crews were professional, always on time and did fantastic work. We couldn’t be happier with the finished product or the experience overall. ## Selected projects - [Swimming Pool, Fireplace, Slides, Waterfalls, Pool Deck, Patio, Spa](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/swimming-pool-fireplace-slides-waterfalls-pool-deck-patio-spa-pj-vj~6271660) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Swimming Pool, Fire Pit, Basketball Court](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/swimming-pool-fire-pit-basketball-court-pj-vj~6271647) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Swimming Pool, Pavilion, Outdoor Kitchen, Patio, Pool Deck, Fire Pit](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/swimming-pool-pavilion-outdoor-kitchen-patio-pool-deck-fire-pit-pj-vj~6271657) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 10 - [Swimming Pool, Pavilion, Hardscape Patio](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/swimming-pool-pavilion-hardscape-patio-pj-vj~6271626) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Swimming Pool, Patio, Retaining Wall, Pavilion](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/swimming-pool-patio-retaining-wall-pavilion-pj-vj~6271640) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Swimming Pool, Porch, Fire Pit, Patio, Pool Deck, Landscaping](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/swimming-pool-porch-fire-pit-patio-pool-deck-landscaping-pj-vj~6271652) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 11 - [Woodbine Outdoor Kitchen and Pergola](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/woodbine-outdoor-kitchen-and-pergola-pj-vj~709174) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 7 - [Sykesville Pool Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sykesville-pool-project-pj-vj~698149) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Owings Mills Pool Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/owings-mills-pool-project-pj-vj~431964) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Howard County Swimming Pool Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/howard-county-swimming-pool-project-pj-vj~431210) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Woodbine Maryland Pool Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/woodbine-maryland-pool-project-pj-vj~431951) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Clarksville Maryland Pool Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/clarksville-maryland-pool-project-pj-vj~431948) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 2 - [Glenwood Maryland Pool Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/glenwood-maryland-pool-project-pj-vj~431943) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 1 - [Mt.
