Pool Replastering in Ashburn

The re-plastering of our pool was handled very professionally from start to finish. The estimate was very competitive. The crew showed up when scheduled and were very neat and efficient in carrying out the job. The post-plastering instructions were thorough and clear. We love the results.

Jim Walsh and his crew were extremely professional and thorough in all aspects of the job. The entire process took a week. I anticipated a bit of a mess but each day the pool area and the yard were clear of any debris. Jim was very helpful in guiding us through our choices and did not try to steer us toward the more expensive choices. WE have additional work to be done in the near future and will strongly consider using JW Contracting again.

It looks great! They were easy to work with, reasonably priced, professional. The end product was as advertised. Make sure you follow the start up instructions.

Fantastic experience from start to finish. From the beginning we liked Jim's presence and knowledge. His price was slightly higher than the other quotes, but all quotes were within $2,000. However, well worth the higher price. The workers were no bull, hard working and working well which produced a job well done. There were ZERO signs that they were even there other than a wonderful looking pool. Plus great communication via email. Other than only getting sometimes an evenings notice that they were coming the next morning, we can only say wonderful things about our experience with JW Contracting, INC and highly recommend their services.

The plaster service was good but for the equipment I had to follow up with them. They treat me fine as a customer.

I got bids from 3 companies. One my wife contacted was 1/3 lower but Consumer Checkbook ratings were low and further research showed problems with them around the country. The other company Pool Service had a bid which matched Capitol but despite knowing someone at the company and a positive initial contact we could not get their rep to followup or return calls which delayed us for a couple of months. Capitol got beck to us quickly, returned calls and answered our questions promptly. They said 3 days and they were on-time and done in that period. Would definitely recommend them for this type of job.

Wilcoxon removed all the old plaster from our 25 year old swimming pool. A few tiles were damaged in the process and they had matching tiles to replace those that were broken. These were odd shaped blue tiles and they matched perfectly. The work site was very clean and vacummed after that messy process. They carried all that broken plaster by buckets to their truck to prevent damage on the lawn with wheelbarrows. They had a tarp on the asphalt driveway to keep that clean. The next day they came to plaster the pool at 9:00 a.m.The job was completed and the pool ready to fill by 11:45 a.m. when the water truck arrived with the first load. EXCELLENT JOB! We are very pleased.

The Watermark Pool rep was low-pressure, honest, and pleasant to interact with. The pool work was done very well and in a timely manner. The cost stuck to the estimate and was reasonable. This is by far the best the pool has ever looked!

DONT HIRE JW CONTRACTING!!! Jim was very easy to work with. He appeared honest and straight forward, that was until problems with our plaster occurred. . His Crew came out on time and they appeared to be very efficient. The entire staff was pleasant. We had our pool redone in fall of 2018. It was closed soon thereafter. When we opened our pool last spring we noticed some discoloration that continued to progress. We had several conversations with Jim regarding what had occurred. He came out twice to inspect the pool. Each time was several weeks after the call, His explanation was , "there could be any reason this occurred, one could have been something you added to the pool". We consulted several other companies who stated there is nothing you could add to the pool to cause this. The plaster was most likely not mixed right or it was hard troweled. We then came across other issues that they pointed out in regards to plaster application. Jim refused to stand by his work or even entertain the possibility that this is what had occurred. We are now left with a pool that is grey and dirty looking. . Of course first world problems right, but in the end if your looking for a pool contractor to stand by his work, JW contracting is not that company.

Removed pool cover and inspected plaster and tiles. He measured the pool and provided me with an estimate for re-plastering and optional tile replacement. Very professional. He spent significant time discussing the situation of the pool. He also provided references of completed work as well as undergoing pool renovation projects. The estimate that he provided was competitive, but I also obtain others more cost effective.

I wouldn't recommend Puritan Whitecoat to anyone doing pool re-plaster. At first Eric, the owner seems to be very responsive and I had no problem getting in touch with him, he even brought the proposal in person to our home, but as soon as we signed the contract and paid deposit, everything changed and it was almost impossible to get a hold of him. His excuse was that there was a commercial client that he needed to take care first? I am ok with that, but not when this going on for WEEKS where you can?t find him and he doesn?t respond. At some point we were thinking that he was some kind of scammer, who took our money and ran away. Thankfully it was not the case. The plaster job was finally done, Eric didn?t check the job after, and he wasn?t supervising the process, as the result we found few imperfections that Eric promised to take care. Those imperfections still exist up to this day.

The pool looks brand new......it is 27 years old. They also put a dolphin and beach balls on the bottom (made out of tiles) to show where the pool depth changes. I use this company now to maintain the pool and keep it in good shape. They are very good at keeping problems from happening. It was expensive, but well worth it.

The pool renovation took 8 weeks from estimate to completion (June 3 - July 22). This included redecking, which was done by another company that was recommended by Nick Leinbach, the President of Watermark Pools. Estimate: Mr. Leinbach came out and inspected the pool damage on June 3. He provided an estimate around June 10. He then ordered tile samples that we had selected from catalogs to be sent to my house. After comparing with another estimate (which was very similar), we submitted a deposit about a week later, and Nick ordered the tiles and coping. Throughout this process, Nick answered all my questions very promptly via email. He inspired confidence, and was able to start sooner than the other company. Work: The next step was removing the cover and draining the pool. This work began around June 23. After the pool was drained, the old plaster was removed using some process that is more environmentally friendly than sand blasting. This is a very messy and noisy process while it is happening, but the workers contained the mess well and cleaned up nicely when they were finished. The coping and tiling work was done next. The old coping and tile were removed. There was a possibility that more damage to the underlying structure would be discovered (Nick had mentioned that in advance), but we were fortunate that his original estimation of the extent of the damage was accurate, and the work was done within the original estimate. The tilers that Watermark employs are highly professional. Their work is precise and meticulous. We are extremely pleased with the tiling and coping. This part of the process is neither very noisy nor messy. Final choices: Nick came to our house to finalize the choice of plaster color. From samples, we selected a blue color that would work well with the tiles, and we are very pleased with it. It was worth the extra $2,000 in our opinion. Nick also recommeded a company that does decking repair/replacement. We were pleased with the work of that company as well. (The cost of the decking was separate from the cost of the pool renovation.) Replastering: There was a bit of a delay due to the plastering machine needing to be repaired. Once the plastering was complete (another noisy process!), water was trucked in. Nick arranged for that. (The cost of the water is separate from the pool renovation.) At no charge, Nick completed all the normal pool opening activities. He also explained how to brush down the surface and maintain the water balance in the best way to preserve the new plaster, and recommended someone who could continue with pool closings and openings in future. Final work: Watermark Pools returned immediately after the 3-day decking work was completed to install the caulking between the coping and the decking. Our goal had been to complete the pool in time for our son's return from camp on July 22, and that is exactly when the pool was ready for use. Overall: Nick was highly professional, responsive, and very informative all throughout the process. This is his family's business, and all the work he oversaw, from start to finish, was of the best quality. This was an expensive undertaking, but we are very satisfied with the outcome.

ASP of Northern VA is far and away the best pool care, renovation and construction company. They have been caring for my pool for 3 seasons, and far surpass my expectations regularly. We had our pool renovated a few weeks ago, and it's gorgeous. The plaster, tile and coping are beautiful and exactly what we wanted. The team at ASP is engaged with and responsive to our needs, whether we need maintenance or service, throughout the year. I definitely recommend ASP.

Their work has always been "top-notch." Over the last 25 years, they replaced the tile twice, repaired the coping stones when needed, and last summer installed all new modern coping stones. This spring they are scheduled to re-plaster the pool for the second time in 25 years. They also assist with deck renovation by applying the mastic between the coping and surrounding pool deck. We are always pleased with results of their work. They provide the cost of the work upfront and always stick to the agreed price. Scheduling is tricky as it depends on the weather but once they begin the work, they stick with it until it is done without much downtime for use of the pool.

Went well until foot prints were discovered in the plaster. Owner will not return phone calls. Please honor your warranty!

The pool blue quartz plaster and glass tile look beautiful! The decking repairs and re-caulking look great. The work was done last fall and Eric came back this spring to acid wash the plaster - we are very pleased with the blue quartz and the glass tile.. Eric was able to repair the decking and coping so that we did not need to have them replaced. Some of the other contractors we spoke to would not have repaired the decking. This spring Eric helped us when we needed to plug the drain pipes to make some repairs. We had a great experience with him and highly recommend him.

Fast and efficient quote. Patient salesperson, answered many questions throughout process. Construction team was fast and did a very nice job. Was very pleased with the results. This company had the job quoted and completed in a shorter time than the local "pool experts" took working with me to just come up with some ballpark estimates. I was very happy with Pooltek. Would use them again.

We had an excellent experience. They’ve been in business a long time, they do this a lot, so they actually corrected problems that somebody else created.

Another home run by the entire JW team! This is why we are writing another review for this phenomenal company. Look no further for a contractor that delivers exceptional results every time. JW went into full gear to fix plaster and paint after a pipe broke in our house and caused significant water damage. Bob and Will, drafted an accurate estimate and then completed all plastering and painting on our 1940 home. Their repairs were so effective that the no one is able to pick out where the damage occurred any more. I really appreciated how JW values my money and reputation with the insurance company as if it was their own. JW preformed in eye watering fashion on an earlier job and their performance on this repair proved to me that high-quality craftsmanship and excellent customer service are the calling cards of this professional company. JW?you are my contractor of choice.
