Liquid Assets helped us custom design our pool to give us exactly what we wanted. They let us know what options were available, so we could make informed decisions about our project.

John contacted me very quickly regarding a leak and getting an appointment set up in a very expedient manner and he quoted a rate of $1000-1200 for the service. That is where the professionalism ended. I received a call from American Leak Detection who is subcontracted to do the leak detection work; and was a bit startled as I already had them booked for July and knew of their rates. The fact of the matter is John is making a large profit off of a subcontracted service and when I called him out on it; he got very terse over the phone and stated that I guess I should leave the service in July. The moral of the story is; don't try and make $200-400 + off of subcontracted service and gouge your customers, be honest with them and when they are educated about the price, honor the price. It never hurts to be an educated consumer and a warning to all for this company is do your due diligence.

Comment from Liquid Assets Pools, Inc.:
First off, we’re sorry there was a misunderstanding regarding our overall pricing. We have worked with American Leak Detection for more than 15 years, and this is the first time we’ve ever encountered a grievance. Yes, we do markup our subcontracted business partners, sticking with the industry norm of 10%-15%. That has never varied. We knew that Mr. Schubert was looking to get leak detection work done on his pool as quickly as possible. We were able to accommodate him on an almost immediate basis.
Our cost range of $1000-$1200 has been our standard rate for most leak detection projects. Most times, this is a 2-3 hour process at a minimum – many times, it goes beyond that time frame. We always bill according to the final job – had the actual amount of time spent been less than estimated, our bill would have been adjusted downward. We also hope that Mr. Schubert understands that our time is factored into our estimate as well, contacting the company, arranging schedules and communicating with the customer. More important, when a leak is found, our crews are readily available to repair the leak and any subsequent damage done to the pool area (like repairing decking, tiling, etc.). The job of American Leak Detection is to find the leak, and they do that very well. But they do not repair the problem. We always encourage customers to get additional estimates from other companies and sometimes, we do indeed lose on price. But we never intentionally overcharge on any job – whether that’s for a new pool or pool renovation and repairs. We hope Mr. Schubert’s leak is found and repaired in a timely manner.
Once again, Sorry.

After interviewing 3 pool builders, we decided to use John Jacobson and Liquid Assets for the project. We had a warm and fuzzy feeling after talking with John, and were not disappointed with our choice. He engendered an air of confidence, and his attention to detail and willingness to bring our design to life did not disappoint. John has carefully chosen all of his subcontractors to complete each step in a very professional manner. It has been three years since the completion of the project, and I still feel comfortable calling upon him with any concerns or questions that pop up.

Liquid Assets built our custom pool in 2014.
John Jacobsen was as professional and attentive during the entire process as anybody in the business, and our finished product was spectacular.
I’ve had 3 pools (2 custom builds) at my last residences, and the liquid assets pool was by far the best in both styling and functionality!

Liquid assets built an amazing pool in my backyard. The workmen that were here were so kind and hardworking. I also had my patio covered so all the concrete would match, they always paid a lot of attention to detail and were always easily accessible if I had a question.

As a fencing contractor in the surrounding St. Louis area I have observed the construction and installation of many in-ground pools over the last 15 years. Liquid Assets stands out as a pool contractor that I would recommend to a friend. Their professionalism, smart design, and quality construction exemplifies characteristics that are unfortunately, often missing in today's world.

John and Liquid Assets built us the most fabulous pool for our backyard. His vision and design was far superior to any other layout and bid we received. The crew was first class from start to finish, stayed on the given timeline, and delivered a backyard resort for our family. Some of his suggestions such as the wall, veneer, jump rock and water features fit perfectly. Liquid Assets was very accommodating to plan revisions and last minute changes, and it never effected the original budget. We are very grateful for the work that was done in our yard to convert a large area into an outdoor living and pool area.

Liquid Assets designed and constructed a beautiful ingroud gunite pool in our yard. John was very professional every step of the way. He presented an impressive drawing/video of what our property would look like with his vision and executed it perfectly. John's knowledge of his work and professional connections give us confidence that our pool is built with excellent engineering and attention to detail so that it will be securely in place and stable for the future. The end result is exactly what he showed us in the beginning of the project.
Even with a summer full of rain, we were able to swim and enjoy the pool only a few short months after signing the paperwork. My family is very excited to relax and enterain in this amazing new space.

Liquid Assets did a wonderful job. The owner John was very pleasant to work with. I prefer working with small business owners who are knowledgeable in their field. John was attentive to any question we had, in a timely manner, and handled any glitch we had respectively.
