"For anyone who is looking for a pool or spa contractor in San Diego, I can't recommend Danny Smith at California Custom Pools highly enough. In the winter of 2023, I hired Danny to remodel the exterior of my pre-existing spa, which was custom-built by another company. It is nearly impossible to find a competent contractor to fix or complete another contractor's job that was done incorrectly or resulted in significant problems, so when Danny and his crew took on the difficult job of remodeling my spa, I knew I was fortunate. My existing spa was surrounded by a wooden deck that was warped and disintegrating, and I had searched for more than a year to find someone to help me with this project. Because I didn't know what the was underneath the deck, it was a challenge for any contractor to bid on this job. Prior to finding Danny, multiple contractors and carpenters quoted me prices between 15-30K given that the possible solutions were contingent upon may unknown factors. However, Danny was able to thoroughly assess the possibilities on location by looking closely at the existing deck and consulting with his crew. He then provided me with several viable options that were within my budget and in less than a month, we agreed on a plan and schedule the demo. In 5 days (including the weekend in-between) the wooden deck was gone and replaced with scored, colored concrete. I was blown away! No delays, no unreturned phone calls, no excuses. Just complete follow-through. And after the job was completed, the crew came back to clean up the rocks and dust from the concrete truck, which I really appreciated. I was finally able to enjoy my spa, which continues to look beautiful, blends with my entire backyard, and is easy to maintain. Overall, I highly recommend Danny Smith with California Custom Pools. who is professional, great to work with, honest, and dependable. His tile/cement crew are skilled in their craft, always arrived on time, and consistently walked me through the process while answering my questions. What really makes Danny and his crew stand out is their design creativity combined with a commitment to details and follow-through. I've worked with a lot of contractors over the years as a homeowner, and it was refreshing to have a positive experience from start to finish. Thank you for everything Danny!"

"Jay and his team at Greenland did a great job for me! I would highly recommend them! They installed a paver walkway and patio in the backyard, including a border around my grass area. New sprinklers, new plants, weed barrier & pebble ground cover. We also did a dry riverbed in the front yard with plantings and sprinkler system. I’m very pleased. Thank you!"

"Very professional and clearly explaining the process."

"OMG. What a blessing. Honest, quick, accurate, fair cost. Love this service call!"

"Excellent project management and very flexible. Great design"

"This pool company fixed a difficult problem we had with our spa heating up whenever it filtered. He is dedicated to his work and is fair in his prices for service and parts. I am quite relieved to have a pool company I can trust."

"I had 2 companies that quoted me an arm and a leg to recondition the water in my pool. Pool busters was a recommendation from a friend who was very happy with their service so i gave them a call. I’m glad I did! Not only was the service done in a few days, the added expense the other companies recommended were unnecessary, saving me a lot of money! So far the water after a week is still sparkling and my equipment is running on point. I can’t thank them enough for their honesty, step by step explanation, knowledge and guidance. They are hired to do our weekly service now."

"Kel was very professional, does great work, good communication and very consistent on his pool service days."

"Project manager was a general contractor not a pool person. You do not know the quality of the work until it is done then it is too late. Concrete has large dark blotches in a few places. I think it?s because concrete wasn?t mixed thoroughly leaving an inconsistent color. Looks bad. Developed a crack within the first couple of weeks and was told nothing could be done. Concrete around top of spa is crooked and inconsistent. Amateur job. My neighbor?s was done around the same time (different company) and is perfectly straight. Salesman was knowledgeable but never returned to check the job. I do not think anyone really knew what they were doing. Just kind of faking it. Do not recommend. No real upside to the job."
