From start to finish is was a pleasure working with J Oliver! I was delighted that they were informative and responsive to my needs and my wife's requests. The workmanship from all of their subcontractors was top notch. I am sure to make my strongest recommendation for any pool work to friends and neighbors. They have me as a life long customer!

Debbie Fuqua

I would highly recommend J. Oliver Custom Pools and Design. We have an existing pool that was in extreme disrepair, and we were at a loss as to how to move forward. Josh and Shan came out and offered multiple options, sound advice and stayed with the project until the end. The project came out much better than we could have imagined thanks to their expertise and professionalism. Working with Josh and Shan has been an extreme pleasure.

Want an easy hassle free pool built? Choose J. Oliver. My pool was designed and built by them. They are very easy to work with and very knowledgeable. Told them what was most important to me and they customize my pool just perfectly. And, it was done in a very timely manner. I have no doubt that my pool was built correctly and if I even need support, they will be responsive.

J. Oliver Pools is everything you could want from a company and more, 5 stars truly doesn't do them justice. We were first introduced to Josh and Shan through a mutual friend after receiving and talking to multiple pool builders. We know that we were one of the first customers as they were trying to get their business up and running and let me tell you….happiest customers ever. Working with Shan and Josh was an absolute pleasure from start to finish. Their communication was incredible, they followed through and followed up on every single request in a very timely manner (not in a few days), they listened to every single one of our needs and wants for our new pool, something so many other companies did not do, but rather pushed their own ideas and thought on us. Having a reputable or relatively new business its hard to do and listening to your potential customer should be the top priority. They followed through on every promise and delivered exactly what we discussed. It's rare to find a company that truly stands by its products and warranties, but that's exactly what they do. We have had them come back and do additional work for us and each and every time, it is the best experience imaginable. We cannot recommend them enough to all of own friends and families because you will be very, very happy of you give Shan, Josh and J. Oliver to chance to earn your business and build your pool.

I recently worked with J. Oliver Pools for a major renovation project that included resurfacing and retiling my in-ground pool, demolition of the current outdated and broken deck, and installation of all new hardscape around the pool including additional walls to hide equipment. From the very beginning, the team at J. Oliver impressed me with their professionalism and attention to detail. They provided a thorough and transparent estimate, outlining all the work that needed to be done and the associated costs, as well as providing information on how to manage HOA questions. Throughout the project I was informed of any and all stage gates. The outstanding part of working with J. Oliver is their attention when issues arose (and they will, throughout projects). We ran into several issues with subcontractors that were ultimately and fairly taken into consideration by J. Oliver which made me very happy to work with them as I knew they'd see this through to completion. This project has completely transformed my backyard, making it look like a luxurious retreat. The hardscaping is beautifully done, with meticulous attention to detail in every aspect, and any issues I've pointed out have been addressed fairly and completely. What truly sets J. Oliver apart is their dedication to customer satisfaction. They always went above and beyond, even when unexpected issues cropped up or there were complications with external parties. They handled every challenge with grace and professionalism, ensuring that the project stayed on track and met my high standards. If you are looking for a pool contracting company that will deliver excellent results and go the extra mile to ensure your satisfaction, look no further than J. Oliver.
