The best and the worst from each platform. Both, always.
As a local HVAC Contractor, you always hope to work alongside other trades that value integrity and customer service as much as you do. We installed an AC unit for a client earlier this year, and during a subsequent project, Premier Pool accidentally caused minor cosmetic damage to the outdoor unit. Accidents happen, but how their company handled this says everything. Premier Pool was top notch - incredibly professional, proactive, and easy to work with. They communicated seamlessly with both our team and the homeowner throughout the entire process to ensure the replacement part was taken care of properly. Would highly recommend for their accountability and professionalism!

We had an excellent experience with Premiere Pools from start to finish. The entire process was smooth, the pricing was fair and competitive, and we couldn't be happier with our beautiful new pool. It has completely transformed our backyard, and our family enjoys it every day. A special thank you to Matt, who was outstanding throughout the sales process. He took the time to thoroughly explain every step, answered all of our questions, and even reviewed quotes from other pool companies with us. He pointed out several inaccuracies and important details that other companies had overlooked, which really helped us make an informed decision. We never felt pressured—just well informed and confident in our choice. We also want to recognize Leslie, the Service and Warranty Coordinator. She has been incredibly responsive, professional, and helpful whenever we've had questions. It's reassuring to know that the company continues to provide excellent customer service even after the pool is completed. The quality of the workmanship is excellent, the project was handled professionally, and the final result exceeded our expectations. We highly recommend Premiere Pools to anyone looking to build a pool. Thank you to Matt, Leslie, and the entire team for making the experience such a positive one!
We recently had our old pool removed and a brand new pool built by Premier Pools of Central Florida, and we couldn't be happier with the entire experience. From the initial design process to the final completion, the team was professional, knowledgeable, and attentive to every detail. Communication throughout the project was excellent, and they kept us informed every step of the way. The construction crew worked hard and delivered a beautiful pool that exceeded our expectations. Their commitment to customer satisfaction truly stood out! Our backyard has been transformed (ahead of schedule) into an amazing space for family and friends to enjoy, and we are so grateful to Matt and the entire team at Premiere Pools.
We can’t thank Shawn Smith with Premier Pools of Central Florida for everything he did throughout our pool project. From start to finish, he was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely pleasant to work with. No matter the question or concern, Shawn was always there to help and made the entire process so much smoother. Thanks to his dedication and support, we now have the pool of our dreams. It’s rare to find someone who truly cares about their customers and takes pride in their work the way Shawn does. We highly recommend Shawn and Premier Pools to anyone considering a pool project. This review comes straight from the heart. Thank you, Shawn, for helping make our dream backyard a reality! 🏊 🌟
Minus one star not for the company but a few of their service providers who didn't meet my expectations. It could be that I'm too picky but some of them lack interpersonal skills. Having said that the Premier employees responsible for construction were fantastic. Post start-up customer service representative Leslie has been fantastic and very conscientious about addressing any small issues within hours.

Premier Pools of Central Florida of Winter Park: licensed since 1996, 4.7 on Google from 261 reviews — the best large-sample rating on this list.
Premier Pools of Central Florida works out of North Palmetto Avenue in Winter Park, Orange County. Their Florida contractor license, CPC056822, was issued in February 1996 and is current — thirty years of unbroken certification. The domain has been registered since 2001. They describe themselves as family-owned and fully insured; the first is not a matter of public record and the second cannot be verified from outside the company, so ask for the certificate. Their award claim does hold up against a published record. Their claim to be the most trusted is not something anyone can hold on the record — but as it happens their rating is the strongest of the large builders here, which is a better argument than the slogan.
New pool construction, renovation of existing pools, repairs, ongoing pool service, spas and hot tubs, water features and outdoor living work. Seven lines, none with a page of its own. The weak spot is pictures: they publish just one project photograph, which for a thirty-year-old builder with 261 satisfied customers is a real omission rather than a sign of anything wrong. Ask for a portfolio and for addresses of finished jobs — with a rating this good, the work will speak for itself once you can see it.
Winter Park, and they publish pages for Orlando, Winter Garden, Windermere, New Smyrna Beach and The Villages as well. Those pages are near-copies of one another rather than written about each place, so we treat them as marketing rather than as a documented service area — though unlike some on this list the places named are at least all plausibly reachable from Winter Park, which is more than can be said for a Tampa firm claiming Key West. Read it as greater Orlando plus a reach north-east to the coast and west to The Villages, and confirm your own address by phone. They keep weekday hours. Their website is the most actively maintained on this list: they were writing on it yesterday, about small backyard pool designs.
Google has them at 4.7 from 261 reviews, and that combination is the strongest on our list so far. Two hundred and sixty-one reviews is a large sample — large enough that the score is a settled fact rather than a good run — and 4.7 sits comfortably above the 4.52 Florida average. Among the builders here with more than two hundred reviews, nobody rates higher. The praise is specific and spread across the things that usually go wrong: seven separate customers name their professionalism, four the communication through the build, three the quality of what was built. The detailed accounts describe fair and competitive pricing, and a full tear-out and rebuild of an old pool handled well from start to finish. No complaint theme reaches our floor of two customers raising the same thing, so there is no recurring problem to report. The two least happy accounts are worth reading for what they are: one is a four-star review that docks a point not for the company but for a few of the subcontractors it sent, specifically their manner rather than their work. The other is a caution about the sums involved on a large job — around ninety thousand dollars for a pool, cage and pavers — from a customer who nonetheless speaks well of the people he dealt with. Neither describes a defect. The fair summary is a long-licensed builder with the best large-sample rating here, whose subcontractors are the variable part, and whose website undersells them. Ask who is subcontracted and who supervises them.

Google has them at 4.7 from 261 reviews, above the 4.52 Florida average — and among builders here with more than two hundred reviews, nobody rates higher. Seven customers name their professionalism, four the communication during the build and three the build quality. No problem was raised by two or more customers, so there is no recurring issue to report.
The subcontractors, mildly. The most critical review on record is a four-star that docks a point for the manner of a few of the trades they sent rather than for their work, and another customer cautions about the size of the bill on a large job while speaking well of the people involved. Neither describes a defect. Ask which trades are subcontracted and who supervises them day to day.
Their license, CPC056822, was issued in February 1996 and is current — thirty years.
They are in Winter Park and publish pages for Orlando, Winter Garden, Windermere, New Smyrna Beach and The Villages. Those pages are near-copies of each other rather than written about each place, so treat them as marketing — but the places named are all plausibly reachable from Winter Park. Greater Orlando with a reach to the coast and to The Villages is the sensible reading; confirm your address by phone.
It is the one real gap in an otherwise strong profile — a thirty-year-old builder with 261 satisfied customers publishes a single project photograph. Nothing about that is suspicious, it is just an unmaintained gallery. Ask for a portfolio and for addresses of recent finished jobs.
