Customer Reviews

Robert Capen

Working with B&B pools was a wonderful experience. Marcia was very curteous and she patiently answered the many questions I had throughout the process. She did all the purchasing, organizing, and scheduling. I didn't think the renovation work would have gone as smoothly without her dedication and professionalism. The crews who came and did the work clearly knew what they were doing. They showed up on time and worked hard while they were here. All in all, my experience with B&B pools was very positive and I would highly recommend them for any renovation project you are considering.

Great family-owned business who made the installation of the pool to the closing easy. Good communication, great employees who work with you every step of the process, highly recommend. Justin, Ed, Tony, Todd, Terry, Marcia and Kate to name a few who were involved from start to finish! Look forward to working with them for all our pool needs.

The work crew did an excellent job closing my pool and installing the new Pool Cover. Always a pleasure dealing with both professionals and kind people. Have used them for the last five years. I highly recommend their service and staff.

Kathy Novak

Todd and Terry with B&B Custom Pools did an awesome job winterizing / closing our pool. They make a great team and are always patient with answering any of our questions.There is a reason why I always request Todd and Terry every season for closing and opening our pool! The office staff is friendly and Kate was great in working with me on my requested closing date even when I needed to reschedule. We appreciate B&B Custom Pools! Thank you!

Roland Krebs

We are very happy that we worked with B&B to design and build our pool. Our yard was transformed from a blank slate to an oasis all through the wonderful collaborative process with B&B and in particular Ed Mehlig. All of the office and construction staff were fantastic, including the subs they used directly or companies they recommended. Any issues were addressed in a timely fashion and with fairness and professionalism…these folks really do want you to love your pool and the photos speak for themselves! We are now lucky enough to vacation at home…thanks B&B!
