The mason crew that did all the tile, coping, the decking, and patio grill was exceptional. I am very pleased with the brick work. The lines are precise and the new brick work blends seamlessly with the existing house. I especially like how they matched the style of the brickwork to the existing house with soldier courses, and corner details they did without even asking.

We shopped around a lot before deciding on Reliant for our pool build. When we asked one pool company why they didn't use travertine on a free form pool, they said because it was hard to create a nice curve with the square travertine material. When we went into the Reliant office, we saw picture of free form pools with travertine and the curves were smooth and flawless. The difference: Reliant used the same craftsman for every job who hand cut the material to create the smooth curves. Another difference was when we asked whether they used concrete that was mixed at the truck or concrete that had

We are so thrilled with our Reliant pool! It was a priority for us to have a pool with a commercial handicapped lift so that each member of our family could enjoy swimming. Other pool builders did not want to deal with that, but Joel and Elijah didn’t have any problem adding that to the pool design. Joel was very knowledgeable about commercial lifts and figured out how to make it function both with the pool AND the spa, which we didn’t know was even possible! The service and attention to detail at Reliant was outstanding!

We have an extremely sloped backyard and met with 3 pool builders to see what was possible. Joel and Elijah were the last to come out and turned what seemed to be becoming a long shot into an actual plan. Their experience showed and their excitement for the challenge sold us. The ability to pull in and manage multiple contractors for more then just the pool build was also a plus. Joel was straightforward and responsive throughout and has become a trusted adviser we would highly recommend to anyone considering building a pool.

FANTASTIC EXPERIENCE... just wanted to start with that out of the gate, and I cannot stress this enough. Reliant Pools built us an incredible pool, spa, shower, cabana and fire-pit... on time, on budget, and with minimal hassle. Joel Hefner not only sold us on the project, he designed it, managed it, and enhanced it to levels we still cannot believe.

This was our third pool build, and the first two experiences were awful. Really awful... mistakes, compromises, unpaid sub-contractors, blatant lies, and delays of up to 2 years. With Reliant Pools, we experienced none of this. They designed us a

Reliant Pools is by far the best pool builder in Austin Texas. I have worked with several pool companies in the area and they are by far the most knowledgeable and deliver the best service.

Our pool is done and it turned out quite nice. I'm still not overly pleased with some of the contractors, however, Elijah and Joel were more than willing to work with me on what the contractors billed me for. I will say, Elijah and Joel are honest guys who are genuinely good to work with. Could the project have been ran better? Yes. But, I do feel they will make any wrongs right, and they have. For that, I thank them.
=====================
Our pool build started out really good. We chose Reliant after firing another pool company before they even started digging. Based on where

Highly recommend Reliant Pools (Elijah and Joel), we've just completed a pool build and are very happy with the product delivered. A pool project is a sizable job - requiring design time, permitting, heavy equipment work, a variety of sub contractors, city inspections, interactions between builder and client, etc. It's expensive, an all new experience (since like us most probably haven't built a pool before), and at times a challenge. Having received pools designs and bids from many potential builders, and talking to each extensively, we went with Reliant because we felt it gave us the right combination

Reliant Pools has been amazing and Joel has gone above and beyond since day one. We couldn't be happier with the design, workmanship, and customer service. Joel truly made this process easy and was onsite almost every day to overlook the progress. We are truly blessed to have worked with such an outstanding company and crew. Thank you!

Reliant pools were amazing! They literally took care of what nobody in Austin could seem to handle and made my pool work like a dream! They were fair, reliable and delivered exactly what was promised and above

It has been two years since we began our relationship with Reliant Pools and we couldn't be happier. Planning was collaborative and Joel kept us informed through the build process. It was great to see him on site for all the most critical activities and then later on ensuring the stone work was done with high quality. Reliant Pools has been great long after the work was done. Service has always been swift and complete. I'm happy to recommend Reliant Pools to my friends and neighbors.

We got a few estimates before we decided to go with Reliant pools.Joel and Donnie came out initially and were very professional. We met with them in the showroom and went over designs. Donnie was very helpful with the design process and they designed a beautiful natural flowing pool that fit our backyard perfectly. Joel was very professional and had great oversight throughout the entire process; he was here nearly every day during the construction phase. The waterfall turned out beautifully and is what I think of as a piece of art- the way that the water flows perfectly down in cascade. We were

Extremely impressed with Reliant Pools. We got bids from four companies before deciding to move forward with them - even though they weren't the lowest bid. Joel is highly knowledgeable and Donny is beyond attentive to customer needs, questions and requests. We're very happy with the final result and it's easy to recommend Reliant to others.

Joel came out and met with my husband and myself for about 1.5 hours and learned everything that we wanted in a pool. For the entire visit, he only looked at my husband when speaking. Not good. Joel left telling us telling us that he would be in touch within a week with drawings and cost. We never heard from him again! I guess he didn't want 70K.

Thought I'd give them a shot based on reviews and recommendations, but after about one and half months, I've had one sales guy disappear on me and the owner come in after warning me about his past employee. Followed by a month long wait for a quote, met with nothing. Perhaps too busy, but a simple "I'm sorry I'm too busy to help you," would suffice vs stringing people along.

We had a great experience with Reliant. While we almost went with a large builder, talking to Joel convinced us we would get a better quality product with RP and we did. It means a lot to know your project is being supervised by someone that owns the outcome through all phases and cares deeply about the result. Reliant was on site many times all day to supervise and sometimes by 6:30 in the morning. They answered every concern in a timely fashion and I am confident we will continue to work with them in the future. We have already recommended them to several friends and will continue to do so

We had such a great experience working with Joel and EJ of Reliant Pools. Our pool is gorgeous and exceeded our exceptions!

During the bidding and design process EJ listened to us and made sure we understood the differences in the choices we were making to ensure we would have an pool we'd love at the end of the project.

The detail work done by the all the workers is like art and was amazing to watch. The onsite guys cleaned up after themselves everyday and never left our yard or pool shell looking like a junkyard. Any day we had workers onsite Joel would come in the beginning of the

I had such an amazing experience with Reliant Pools. Everything we completed perfectly in a very timely fashion. I was kept updated along the way and never had to worry about a thing! Joel was my main POC though out the process. He couldn't be better at his job. Would drop anything at any time to resolve an issue. My pool is gorgeous and I would recommend Reliant Pools to ANYONE!!

My husband and I would like to take a moment to recommend Reliant Pools. Their team exceeded our expectations on several different levels. The consultation and design was much better than the other 3 companies we got quotes from, and that was why we decided to go with them. However, the craftsmanship of their pools is why I have taken the time to recommend them. I'm a very detail oriented person and even I was impressed with how well the masonry work was done. We did decide to add some extra decking to our project and this was the only delay in an overall smooth and on time construction process
