"Armando and his team have been maintaining our pool for the past year, and they've done an outstanding job. Their weekly cleaning keeps our pool sparkling and swim-ready. They also perform annual filter maintenance, ensuring everything runs smoothly. Since hiring Armando, we've never had issues with the water quality—the chemical balance and chlorine levels are always perfect. The water is so clear that I don't even need swim goggles. I highly recommend giving them a try!"
"Ryan was great! Very personable and knowledgeable about the entire system. He fixed the connection to my pool sweep and then gave me a lot of advice to clear the water (it was green). He said "Do this and that and your pool will be clear in 2 days." That is exactly what happened. Highly recommend this company"
"It was a pleasure to find and due business with a company that was prompt honest. I would highly recommend ,I have already done so. Rosemary Palo Alto"
"Cannot recommend more highly! My pool heater went out the morning we were hosting my 9-year old daughter’s birthday pool party. Naji arrived within an hour of contacting him, found that the issue was only a loose wire, and charged me only a home visit fee - on a Saturday! Everyone else that I reached over the phone wanted to schedule weeks out and recommended replacing the equipment. I’m so pleased, I will look for more work to send his way!!"
"Amazing from start to finish. My pool had an air leak, something that is not easy to find. After finding the crack that was causing the air leak, the return line had to be repaired. Everything is now working perfect."
"Very thorough and helpful in going over the equipment and maintenance. As well as the seasonal requirements that a pool needs. I thought the water just needed to stay chlorinated but there is so much more. Great company I would recommend to anyone."
"Carlos and his team did a phenomenal job with our outdoor kitchen. Every day after they worked the cleaned up and was very flexible during the project to accommodate small changes to the plans. I would highly recommend them for any home project!"

"Working with Aqua Gunite was a very positive experience. They had great customer service and the entire project went very smoothly from start to finish. They do great quality work and you shouldnâ t hesitate to hire them."
"After having my pool removed, I had a "blank slate" for a new back yard, with curving paths, blooming perennials, and a dry creek bed with bridge. Their designer Freddy was wonderful with translating my rather vague wishes into a plan. Having a pro include drainage considerations, drip watering system, and a gorgeous lighting plan, was especially valuable. And yet it still integrated in well with the existing landscaping in the two side yards. Each worker involved took pride in their work and did a wonderful job. Carlos's estimate for start date and length of time for the project were exactly right. I would recommend Carlos Landscape highly!"
