After hearing great things about Daydream Pools, I decided to give them a call. I had reached out to two other companies for estimates on resurfacing my pool, but their quotes were outrageous, and no one even came to inspect my pool. Taylor from Daydream Pools took the time to visit, measure the pool, and explain the causes of its discoloration and rust spots. We agreed on an estimate, and the crew arrived two days earlier than expected, the resurfacing work was exceptional. They meticulously chipped out the old plaster around the perimeter and outlet ports, then plastered the pool with the color I selected. The transformation was incredible—my pool went from a zero to a ten! They also replaced all the drain and port covers. The day after the water was added, Taylor returned to help get the pool started and added the necessary chemicals. I am very pleased with the crew and the service I received. Highly recommend Daydream Pools!
We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Daydream Pools on our new pool. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, transparent, and stress-free. Taylor and the rest of the team was professional, responsive, and truly committed to delivering high-quality work. We were especially impressed with the attention to detail and thoughtful design touches. They listened carefully to what we envisioned and then brought it to life—even better than we imagined! The craftsmanship is top-notch, and the final result is absolutely stunning. It's now the centerpiece of our backyard and has quickly become our favorite spot to relax and entertain. If you’re looking for a reliable, creative, and skilled pool builder in the Winter Park area, Daydream Pools is the one to call. We’re so glad we chose them!
These guys are the best in the business. It's very hard to find quality people who do quality work, most importantly; who communicate and are timely. Daydream Pools wins the gold 🏅 🏆 with me. Last year, they quickly installed an amazing jandy lighting system, and today, I made the call to come and look at my lighting system and within no time. Not only did they help me find the problem, they also taught me how to fix it myself in the future. If you're scared to trust companies with your hard earned money. Trust me, they are trustworthy and top-notch quality. 5 🌟 s, in my opinion... 100 stars 🌟!! Thank you for helping me enjoy my pool as if I was on vacation every single day! Ernest
Taylor and David were a great team and wonderful to work with. They did everything that they said they were going to do and were very professional. We had numerous quotes and decided to go with daydream. Some other companies had insulting, ridiculous contract terms, and some people wanted us to drive out to their storefront in Daytona to look at samples. Taylor was very responsive every time I texted him a question and I felt very comfortable using them and I’m glad that we went with them. The pool came out great and I would highly recommend them.
We had this company come replace the skimmer in our in ground pool. I should have been concerned when they were able to get out so soon, as other companies had a few weeks wait. We decided to go ahead. We paid a 50% deposit and they stated the work would take 3-4 hours, and they were here for 7 hours. The gentleman was very nice, I kept bringing him waters as it was very hot out. I offered to set up an umbrella for him which he refused. I believe he should not have been here alone and that this was a 2 person job. When he was done we paid the remaining 50% and we were told the let the concrete dry for at least 6 hours before filling the pool again. It wasn't until that evening that we realized they didn't connect the pipe that fills the pool. We contacted them right away asking for this to be corrected. They said they didn't know what we were talking about and asked for pictures. After continuing to follow up with them, they stated that pipe was capped off and would now require additional payment to fix it. The pipe was working before they came, they never asked us if we wanted it disconnected (which we didn't). If you disconnect something while making a repair you need to reconnect it when done, or at the very minimum speak to the homeowner first. I'm extremely disappointed in this outcome and their lack of communication and accountability. I would not recommend this company.
More of a Disappearing act than a Daydream. Asked for pricing quote and met to discuss options, then was given a quote for an extra 10k of work I said that I did not want and no quote for any of the work I actually wanted. Then was told I would need to meet to look at the pool a second time, took time away from work because they didnt have any other available time and then was stood up. When I called again, was given the reason, "we already have what we need, my son was supposed to call you". Two weeks later and still nothing. I wouldnt rely on them to build a birdhouse, let alone work on my pool. Time to wake up
