If you are looking to begin a pool project, the only company you should call is Danny’s Pools of Southwest Florida. I have heard horror stories from my neighbors in West Port about pool companies who promise everything but fail to deliver once they receive payments. From the first time I met Danny, he was knowledgeable, honest, funny, and extremely helpful in designing my pool and spa. Danny takes pride in providing excellent service and he constantly communicates with you throughout the entire project. His entire team are hard-working, respectful and show up when promised, even on weekends. Danny takes care of the entire process, including permits, capping irrigation, excavation, pool construction, pavers, lanai enclosure and replacing sod and reconnecting the irrigation system. Danny’s Pool of Southwest Florida even offers pool maintenance and cleaning after the job is completed. My entire pool project was completed in the timeline promised. Danny and his team ensure your project is stress-free and will exceed your expectations. I now have a beautiful pool/spa to enjoy for years to come. Give Danny’s Pools of Southwest Florida a call if you are looking for a new pool/spa, you will not regret it.
I would like to give Danny’s pool service and construction a 10 star rating. He has done everything that he promised he would do and more. Every time I call him or ask him a question he gets right back to me and Solves every problem that I’ve had. Mostly my fault on any problem. Salt water pool is new to me. Danny has been very helpful. I strongly recommend if you are thinking about having a pool installed please used in Danny’s Pools company. He is a man of his word. Earl Johnson is my neighbor. He is a jerk. He’s threatened to sue everybody in the neighborhood. There was absolutely no damage to his property that was next to mine. We totally reclaimed all of the sod that was damaged. He just likes to complain about anything. Don’t listen to his review.
After doing a lot of research, I chose Danny’s Pools and it was the best decision I could have made. My pool is absolutely beautiful and the craftsmanship is second to none. What impressed me the most was that Danny personally supervised every step of the process. He made sure everything was done right, stayed on top of every detail, and always kept me updated. He is incredibly responsive and answered my questions right away, which made the entire experience stress-free and enjoyable. The team was professional, reliable, and delivered on time. I could not be happier with the results. If you are looking for a pool company that combines outstanding quality, personal attention, and true care for their clients, Danny’s Pools is the one to choose.
Danny's Pools of Southwest Florida is a stunning example of professionalism and creativity in one package! From the moment we sat down with their design team, we felt heard and respected. They took our initial concepts and enriched them with their expert insight, ensuring that our dream of a backyard paradise became a reality. The pool they created for us is more than just a water feature - it's an oasis, a refuge from the everyday hustle and bustle. The quality of their work and their dedication to customer satisfaction is unmatched. I cannot recommend them enough!
