The best and the worst from each platform. Both, always.
We recently had an inground pool installed by Guntner Pools and could not have asked for a better experience. They were very patient in explaining everything as this was our first pool and if you know me, I ask a lot of questions! The quality and dedication to getting it done quickly and completely before our grandchild's birthday was also paramount.Walt and team made this happen and we were able to have the pool party exactly as planned. One more thing I wanted to point out, this company, due to it's reputation was why we decided to use them in the first place. We did not even get an estimate from a different company. There is a reason family and friends would recommend! If you are on the fence as to who to use, you cannot go wrong with Guntner Pools!! 5 stars is not enough......
Poor job on installation, and does not want to provide and service help after the sale.
We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Guntner Pools in Pensacola. From start to finish, they were professional, responsive, and truly great to work with. The entire team paid attention to every detail and delivered exactly what they promised — and honestly, it turned out even better than we imagined. The quality of workmanship is outstanding, and the process was smooth and well-organized. They kept us informed, answered all of our questions, and made the entire project stress-free. It’s clear they take pride in what they do. Our pool looks incredible, and we’ve already had so many compliments on it. If you’re considering a pool contractor, I highly recommend Guntner Pools. Without hesitation, I would absolutely use them again.
I recently hired Guntner pools to install a fiberglass pool and could not be happier with the result. Walt the owner along with his crew Ron, Jason and Nathan, kept us informed of the progress and answered all my questions. Sue in the office is the nicest woman you will ever met, she helped with all the paperwork and called with updates etc... and even let me take a few pieces of coping home so I could get the perfect match to my house The crew were on time and always very courteous, and the pool was on budget, no hidden extras at the end. The pool turned out beautiful and I'm very glad I decided to use Guntner pools. Walt, the owner personally came out and did pool school with us after work one night, so we felt completely educated on every aspect of our brand new pool. When we build our next pool, we will definitely be calling Walt and his crew again. They became like a second family.
Words won't adequately describe the excellent job Guntner Pools did repairing our pool. Not only did we need a new liner; about 20 feet of our metal walls were almost totally gone and needed to be replaced before we could put in a new liner. Two other pool companies said they wouldn't touch it and we should replace the whole pool. Walt said they could fix it and he sent Daniel to do the job and as they say "The rest is history". The pool not only looks great; the walls and bottom are like new. Whether your job is simple or complex, I highly recommend Guntner Pools. Well done.
If you are looking for perfection for pool installation look no further than Guntner Pools! My husband and I cannot be more pleased with the professional service we received from Guntner Pool. Mr. Walt and his crews were continously on top of things from beginning to the end of our pool installation. Communication and timeliness was definitely top notch. We now have a beautiful pool in our backyard....the oasis that we've always wanted and it is picture perfect!!! That you Guntner Pools (Walt) for your service, guidance, and professional work!!! 5 star work all the way!!!! Thank you so very much!!!! Ed & Tammy Spainhower

Learn everything about Guntner Custom Pools of Cantonment — reviews, license RP252555067, and after-sale service! FloridaPoolz.
Guntner Custom Pools works from Jacksbranch Road in Cantonment, Escambia County, on Florida registered pool license RP252555067 — current since December 2007 and running to 2027. Nineteen years. Their domain dates from 2009 and the site was updated in July 2026. They build new pools and handle repair, spas and water features, and their reviews describe fiberglass installations alongside other work. 24 project photographs are published. They describe themselves as a premier pool builder, which is their own wording.
Google has them at 4.5 from 80 reviews — within two hundredths of the Florida average of 4.52 across the 346 builders on this directory. Squarely typical, on a record substantial enough to trust.
Ten of the eighty name their professionalism, three their communication, three the quality of the build and three that the job kept to schedule. Ten out of eighty naming the same strength is a consistency signal rather than a run of good weeks. The fullest account describes a fiberglass pool installed by the owner and his crew.
One review goes the other way and it names two things: a poor installation, and an unwillingness to help with service after the sale. It stands alone against seventy-nine, and the second half of it is the part worth carrying into a conversation — what happens after the money has changed hands is the thing a good record cannot tell you.
New pool construction including fiberglass, pool repair, spas and hot tubs, and water features, from Cantonment across Escambia and the western panhandle. They keep no separate town pages, so there is no published service-area list beyond that base.
Ask whether you are buying a fiberglass shell or a pool poured on site — their record covers both and the two are different projects with different timescales and repair paths. Get the after-sale service terms in writing: what is covered, for how long, and how quickly someone attends. The single complaint on record is explicitly about help after the sale, and a written answer costs nothing to obtain now and a great deal to lack later. The license has run since 2007; ask for the insurance certificate separately.

Their reviews describe fiberglass installations alongside other work. Confirm which you are being quoted for — a moulded shell and a poured pool are different projects with different timescales and repair paths.
That the installation was poor and that the company did not want to help with service after the sale. It stands alone against seventy-nine others, and the after-sale half is the part worth raising before you sign.
The after-sale service terms: what is covered, for how long, and how quickly someone attends. That is exactly what the one complaint on record concerns.
