First of all, I can't believe how quickly the finished our pool! They were here almost weekly doing something and when we were waiting for the cement to cure in the pool, they used that time to do the plumbing and decking. The whole project took 6 - 7 weeks which is unheard of. I'm the only person I know who has no complaints about their pool contractor disappearing for weeks on end! Richie, the owner, was here to check on every step pf the process. It was a painless, quick process and all looks great. Definitely would use them again!

This company is horrible. No-show twice in a row. When I called him to ask him why his reply was, “ What do you want me to say the day got away from me” Then, when I asked him what his plan was, he said the same plan over again which he said nine days ago, After I asked him about that and his lack of communication , he just said, “ If you’re not happy with the way, I do things then don’t use me” and hung up the phone.

L & S is a wonderful family owned business. Richie, Jo and Ken are so dedicated to making you happy. They are so easy to work with. Richie takes you through each step of the project and oversees every little detail to make sure it is done right. We are so glad that we chose them to do our new pool. It is beautiful and we love it! If you are looking to do a remodel or a new pool, or just need pool supplies, don't look any further, you've found the BEST!

Great workers, they installed a lift in the spa at the resort I work at. The work was done in a timely fashion but also correct. If a problem occurs there right out to fix the issue. In store visits are great to nice family owned business! Fair pricing and I strongly suggest calling and giving L and S pools a go at your pool needs!

6 week pool remodel started in March and still not finished. Brand New equipment never functioned the way it's supposed to waiting on warranty work from hayward, brand new pavers came with stains that haven't been switched out, jets don't work. Water feature unfinished and disgusting sludgy water now. Haven't heard from them in two months. Started getting really concerned at the 6-month mark of it not being finished. Dragged on for another 2 months and now it's been 2 months that we haven't even heard from them and quite frankly at this point it's for the best. Hired another company. I'm still in disbelief that this is what happened to us.

About L & S Pool Renovations

We checked L & S Pool Renovations of Bradenton against every pool builder in Florida — license CPC1457965, what they do, and where they stand.

Who they are

L & S Pool Renovations works from Manatee Avenue West in Bradenton, Manatee County. Their Florida pool contractor license, CPC1457965, has been current since 2009 — seventeen years unbroken.

What homeowners say

Google shows 4.3 from 15 reviews, a little under the Florida average of 4.52. Fifteen customers is a small sample and no theme recurs across enough separate reviewers to name, so there is no pattern here to report in either direction — the license history is the more durable fact on this page.

What they do

The name says renovation, and that is the centre of it: bringing existing pools back rather than building from scratch, though new construction is on their list too. Renovation, repair and ongoing service, with spas and outdoor living work. Project photographs are published on the site. The number is (941) 792-4100.

How to check them

With a small review record and seventeen years of license, ask for addresses of jobs finished in the last year and go and look at them. On a renovation the finish is the whole job, and it is the one thing photographs flatter.

Quick Quote

Starts with L & S Pool Renovations — Bradenton, Manatee County. My project is somewhere else

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

Questions homeowners ask

Answered from this record — not by the business.

Is L & S Pool Renovations licensed?

New construction is on their list, but renovation is the centre of what they do — bringing existing pools back, with repair, ongoing service, spas and outdoor living alongside.

Manatee Avenue West in Bradenton, Manatee County. The number is (941) 792-4100.
