I can not say enough good about this company. From beginning to end they were fantastic. Grant Lohmanns extreme patience with my pool design, Jimmy doing an amazing job with the ground work, concrete and special thanks to Bobby our supervisor. Bobby has to be the absolute best supervisor we have ever seen. He kept us up to date on every step. If we had a problem, we called Bobby even after hours he answered his phone. If one of the crews did not do something they were suppose to, Bobby did it himself. Everyone that has seen our pool can not believe how beautiful it is and how fast Fountain pools installed it. We were given a time frame of 3-5 months, we were complete in 3 1/2 months. I don’t want to forget Leslie in the office who I believe has a lot on her plate however was a pleasure to deal with as well. I have referred Fountain Pools to several of my friends already referring this crew specifically, they are the best. We have heard so many horror stories in regards to pool companies .. dealing with fountain pools was great experience.. Ty to Bobby, the hardest worker and his crew.. five stars from start to finish, if we could give 10 we would.

This has been one of the most frustrating and poorly managed construction experiences we've ever had. From the outset, the project was plagued by a lack of oversight, repeated mistakes, unnecessary rework, and little to no accountability. The original superintendent assigned to our project was later identified through public records as a registered sex offender and was not providing active supervision of the job. During that period, several significant early-stage errors occurred, resulting in delays, corrective work, and setting a negative tone for the remainder of the project. Communication throughout the construction process was consistently disorganized. Responsibilities frequently shifted between office staff, superintendents, and subcontractors, making it difficult to determine who was actually accountable. Rather than taking ownership of project issues, Fountain Pools repeatedly attributed problems to subcontractors instead of effectively managing and overseeing the work themselves.

I referred one of my clients to Grant Lohmann at Fountain Pools, and I couldn’t be more impressed with the experience he delivered from start to finish. Grant took excellent care of my client, communicated clearly throughout the entire process, and truly treated the project as if it were his own home. The pool came out absolutely beautiful with high quality workmanship, great attention to detail, and a smooth, professional build process. My client was thrilled with both the final result and the level of service they received, which says everything. If you’re looking for a pool builder you can trust whether for yourself or for a client, Fountain Pools and Grant Lohmann are top notch. I would confidently refer them again without hesitation.

Very unprofessional Steven and his wife look to do things the cheapest way possible and my expertise in the pool industry is what I did for a career before moving to Florida to retire I was shocked to the way they build there swimming pools and the cheap equipment they offer with their pool models I went to paradise pools and I decided to go with them I think they are the most expensive and you get nothing but the best smoke and mirrors

This pool company was fantastic to work with. They communicated clearly and consistently throughout the entire process, kept everything moving on schedule, and were always friendly and easy to work with. I am very happy with the results and the whole experience was smooth and stress-free. Would highly recommend them

This has been one of the most exhausting, poorly managed construction experiences we have ever dealt with. From the very beginning, this project was marked by lack of supervision, constant mistakes, do-overs, and zero accountability. The original superintendent assigned to our project was later identified through public records as a registered sex offender and was not actively supervising the job. During this time, there were significant early-stage errors that required rework and corrections, setting the tone for the rest of the project. Communication throughout the build was consistently disorganized. Responsibilities were constantly shifted between office staff, superintendents, and subcontractors. Fountain Pools routinely passed the blame to subcontractors rather than managing the project themselves. Multiple subcontractors independently told us we were the “last job” they would be doing on our home — a clear indication of internal coordination and scheduling issues. The post-completion phase has been an absolute nightmare. Several punch-list items were confirmed in writing to be scheduled and completed on February 2. That did not happen. On February 4, a subcontractor showed up to cut concrete for a decorative drain and inspect turf issues with no direction, no understanding of the scope of work, and no ability to communicate in English. I was forced to find a translator myself and explain the work — something the homeowner should never be responsible for. The subcontractor also confirmed that additional turf is required to fix an area that was cut too short. As of nearly 30 days after the final draw was released, the following items remain unresolved: • Stucco holes not patched • Paint touch-ups not completed • Original gutter drains damaged and not properly reattached • Turf installation issues unresolved • Warranty documentation and starter kit not provided • A paid umbrella holder plug that cannot be removed and is unusable Despite numerous emails, phone calls, and follow-ups, we have received no answers, no timelines, and no accountability. Messages routinely go unanswered. No one takes ownership. No one follows through. This has been an ongoing nightmare from start to finish. Fountain Pools showed a consistent pattern of poor supervision, lack of communication, inadequate subcontractor coordination, and complete disregard for resolving issues once final payment was released. If you are considering Fountain Pools, I strongly advise you to: • Get everything in writing • Do not release final payment until every item is completed • Be prepared to manage subcontractors yourself • Expect significant stress after construction is “finished” Based on our experience, I would not recommend this company to anyone.

About Fountain of Youth Pool and Spa

Fountain of Youth Pool and Spa of Lutz, trading as Fountain Pools: 4.4 on Google from 254 reviews, and two reports of nobody being clearly accountable.

Who they are

Fountain of Youth Pool and Spa trades as Fountain Pools and works out of Lake Walk Court in Lutz, Hillsborough County. Their current Florida contractor license, CPC1460808, was issued in October 2024 — but the business is far older than that: their domain has been registered since 2000 and the site was archived as early as 1999. A recent license on a twenty-five-year-old business is ordinary and has several innocent explanations, so ask them about the years rather than reading either date as the founding one. Three of their claims rest on their own word: award-winning, most trusted, and a lifetime structural warranty. Structural cover is the most valuable thing a pool builder can offer and the hardest to pin down, so ask for the document and read what counts as structural.

What they build

One of the widest ranges on this list: new pool construction, renovation, repairs, ongoing pool service, spas and hot tubs, water features, screen enclosures, outdoor living work, and commercial pools alongside residential. Nine lines of work, and twenty-four project photographs published — a full set, and the most useful thing on the site for judging finished work. They publish no opening hours, and they list a toll-free number alongside two local ones, which tells you this is a larger operation run from an office rather than a builder who answers his own phone.

Where they work

Lutz, north of Tampa, and their phone numbers reach into the 941 area as well as 888, so their footprint spans more than Hillsborough. They publish no separate pages for individual towns, though, so there is no documented town-by-town service area — treat the Tampa Bay area broadly as the assumption and confirm your own address by phone. There was activity on the site in July. Since they publish no hours and no email, expect the phone to be the only way in.

What the record shows

Google has them at 4.4 from 254 reviews. Two hundred and fifty-four is one of the largest bodies of feedback on this list, which makes the figure dependable rather than a good spell — and it sits a shade under the 4.52 Florida average, so read them as a solid performer at scale. Five separate customers name their professionalism and three the quality of what was built, and the warmest accounts describe patience over the design stage and a referral passed on to somebody else's client, which is the kind of endorsement that costs the reviewer something. Then there is the part that needs stating plainly, because it clears our floor for a pattern. Two separate customers describe the same specific problem: responsibility shifting between office staff, superintendents and subcontractors, so that they could not work out who was actually accountable for their build. Both accounts describe a lack of supervision and repeated mistakes as the consequence. On a company running nine service lines with subcontracted crews, that is a structural risk rather than bad luck, and it is the single most useful thing on this page. It does not contradict the 4.4 — most customers get the good version — but it tells you exactly which question decides which version you get. Before signing, get one named person as your point of contact in writing, get it in writing who supervises the site day to day, and ask which parts of your job are subcontracted and who carries the warranty on them.

We want to make Quick Quote deserve its name. Unopened after an hour, it may pass to another licensed builder who covers the Lutz area. Not to more than one at a time.

Questions homeowners ask

Answered from this record — not by the business.

What do the reviews actually say?

Google has them at 4.4 from 254 reviews — one of the largest samples here, so the figure is dependable, and it sits just under the 4.52 Florida average. Five customers name their professionalism and three the build quality. But two separate customers describe responsibility shifting between office staff, superintendents and subcontractors, with a lack of supervision as the result. Two reviewers on the same problem is our floor for calling it a pattern.

What is the actual risk with them?

Not knowing who is in charge of your job. That is what both critical accounts describe, and on a company running nine service lines with subcontracted crews it is a structural risk rather than bad luck. Get one named point of contact in writing, get it in writing who supervises the site daily, and ask which parts of your build are subcontracted.

How long have they been in business?

Longer than the license suggests. The current license, CPC1460808, dates from October 2024, but their domain has been registered since 2000 and the site was archived in 1999 — around twenty-five years of trading. A newer license on an older business is common; ask them directly rather than reading either date as the founding year.

Is the lifetime structural warranty real?

It is their claim and no public record can confirm a warranty for any builder. Structural cover is the most valuable thing on offer and the least specific, so ask for the written document, read what counts as structural, check what voids it, and check whether it transfers when you sell the house. Their award and most-trusted claims cannot be checked either.

Which areas do they cover, and when are they open?

They are based in Lutz, north of Tampa, and publish no pages for individual towns, so there is no documented service area — the Tampa Bay area broadly is the assumption. Their numbers include a toll-free line and two in the 941 area, so the reach extends south. They publish no opening hours and no email address, so the phone is the way in.
