Horrible. I would give zero stars if I could. Unless you are interested in having a huge concrete hole in your backyard for months on end and slats of pavers in your driveway for weeks, choose literally any other pool company. This has been the most disappointing and frustrating process; I don't even want a pool anymore.

I would avoid this pool company At all costs. We signed our contract in may of 2020 they just finished the project. It's subpar work, pavers are poorly done, communication was non existent I cannot even count the number of times I have called with no response, the yard was left trashed ( not just the dig area). It's as if they were so pleased to have so much room they just tore up the ENTIRE yard. We had to replace our sprinkler line which was ripped out even though it wasn't near the actual dig and about 5 inches from our home, two panels of our fence were destroyed and took several

I signed a contract back in October of 2020 and was told that they would start construction around April/May of 2021. One the "dig" was started, we would be looking at a 12-15 week turnaround time. I was extremely excited once I received a call and an appointment to start mid February. I will honestly tell out that was the ONLY good thing that has actually came from this company. We are now going into October of 2021 and I am still dealing with this incompetent company. I have kept every text from my project manager Ron and willing to share with anyone that asks. I have a never ending

A couple things - firstly, I notice that many (if not the majority?) of recent positive reviews are of the sales process, not mid-pool construction or after delivery. Wondering if people are being given incentives to leave 5 star reviews after the contract signing...
Secondly, the project managers need to go to PM training (PMP or even something less intensive). Communication is poor to say the least. Communication is Project Management 101. If I am told that gunite will be done next week and for some reason the crew is delayed I expect some communication, even if it's brief, to let me

My husband and I decided to contract with Cody Pools and the experience thus far has been amazing! Larry Triana is our Sales Rep and from the first meeting at our home to discuss the process, and our meeting at the showroom to design our pool we have been very pleased. Larry is responsive, pleasant and direct. He is knowledgeable and took time to guide us and advise on the products we should choose. He allowed us to ask questions when "I" didn't fully understand. He didn't tell us what we wanted to hear and instead tried to be as transparent as he could be. We are looking

Not a good pool company. They don't own up to mistakes and try to charge you for warranty calls. Construction department is bad news stay away from this company.

I signed a contract with Glen from Challenger Pools (Cody pools) in June 2020. Work didn't start until 28th Oct 2020. The dig and rebar part of the job went smooth . All down hill after that . The mess left after the gunite was sprayed was appalling .The 5 pallets of pavers for the deck just sat for over 2 months on the lawn. A 12 week job took took 5 1/2 months . Once the shell of the pool was poured the sub contractors would use the drain to relieve themselves . the shell once dried starting cracking in spots around pool light and between the two columns . The project manager Andy was

At first impression dealing with Jay is what won them my business. He was prompt to respond and informative. We decided to get our pool deck redone w/ pavers and some other work costing close to 10k. The downside to the experience were the contractors they had do the work. Each contractor did the bare minimum to get the job done, cutting corners whenever possible and had to be called back numerous times to get their work completed properly (Not perfect just properly). The supervisor (who's job it is to monitor the quality of the work) was seen at most once on the job without us summoning

John, Brett, and Mark came by for the site survey. Process was straight forward and very, very informative. They walked me thru my design, small changes and hurdles, my responsibilities and theirs. They put me at ease with the process. I think during this time the best part was that we all got to meet, putting names with faces. It also was a good time to understand and discuss realistic timelines, which they defined and explained throughly. Very happy we made the choice to go with challenger pools. Thank you gentlemen.

This company is complete garbage..please,please read deep into reviews. The good ones on their web site are mostly fabrication. 1.9 on angies list.
Subcontractor shumks.. had a problem with so called rauel, aka "jason" with no green card actually threw buckets of crap water on
My new truck. We had one little dispute and like a coward, damaged my property! All they did was send someone with major incompetence telling me it was pressure washing overspray. Complete lye. Sent 2 18 year old girls to "detail" it and it was laughable. Still have cement water stuck to it. Hate the pool

Update(4/14/20): I added some pictures, but they really don't do it justice. Had pool school yesterday, and Hector couldn't have made it any clearer. My wife and I feel like we have a good grasp of how to maintain it. I look forward to many years of fun and entertaining. Another shout out to Andy, our PM, for getting things done right the first time. Challenger Pools has Andy to thank for meeting and exceeding our expectations. Can't give it 5 stars, because no business is perfect.

Update(4/8/20): I'm happy to announce that are pool is done, and it is awesome. Just turned

I would be interested to know who is really posting all of these positive reviews on Google for this company and, if they are in fact actual customers of challenger pools, what incentives did they receive to post them? Our experience aligns much more closely with the one and two star reviews you will read below so don't believe the hype. The reviews on Facebook and Yelp appear to be more realistic based on our experience with this company. As soon as this is posted I'm sure there will be 2-3 wonderful five star reviews posted immediately to Google.
