I called Illini Pools for pool leaking service. He told me that they do not offer any type of service. I told him that under your company site it said you offer this type of service pool leaks. He said no, I asked him to correct it on there site. He said we're not responsible for what's said no our site.

I recently purchased new seals for my pool's liner installation, and the team at Illini was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly. Plus, their prices were better than what I found online! So why not support local!

Michelle Bullock

I picked going here because my whole childhood, my father used this company for all his pool needs. I see why! They are very helpful and answers all my questions, treating me with respect and kindness. They don't try to over sell to me, just exactly what I need. They load all the salt and supplies in my van for me every time. They tested my water for free, as many times as I wanted to bring in a sample. There is no need to go anywhere else for your pool supplies! Customer for since 2021, My dad, Customer since late 1980s till 2021, (till they got rid of their pool)

Tom Pantier

I called just about all the other pool companies in Springfield looking for parts to rebuild a busted pump. A few argued with me that I did not have the pump that I actually had even after showing a picture of the model number. Illini pools had 3 of the 6 parts I needed and ordered the remaining parts. They were here within 3 days and priced very fairly. They get my business from now on.

Nice place helpful staff, was able to get what i needed and have me back and going in no time. Convenient for anyone coming from Athens, or Petersburg direction beings it is on the edge of town rite off 29. I dont know how i overlooked and missed this place and went further into town bf. This place is way more convenient for anyone north of Springfield and they seem to have a good variety of items!
