Rising Sun was immensely helpful in replacing a pool cover under warranty. They stood behind their product and replaced our cover in amazing fast time. Every person they have sent out to us has been professional and knowledgeable and I will use their company forever!

I realize last Summer was an unusual time for most businesses due to Covid. I also understand how hard it was to find people that were willing to work. I can let a lot of things go but we were charged over $500 for work that was not done and we also had to pay someone else to fix what they messed up. Needless to say, we'll never use Rising Sun again. It was really an unbelievably bad experience. I will say that the lady we spoke with seemed to try to fix the problem but nothing significant ever happened - except that our credit card was charged after we had spoken with them and thought it

On September 10, we asked Rising Sun to come drain, clean, and refill our spa in anticipation of fall/winter usage. They did. After their visit on that day, the spa lost all power and would not work. After SEVERAL days of phone messages and back and forth emails, we were told they did not take responsibility for the failure and that I would have to hire an electrician.
I did that and he confirmed 240 power was going to the spa controller (inside the spa). Something inside was tripping the breaker from there and he said he couldn't help with that.
Finally, after WEEKS of delays, a Rising Sun technician

We bought our sundance spa from Kate. She is great and very knowledgeable. We recommend everyone to Rising Sun Pools because we have enjoyed doing business with them for many years now.

April 2020, we decided in lieu of vacationing during a pandemic to build a backyard pool area. We reached out to a few other local companies but decided to use Rising Sun based on their reputation and we felt very comfortable with the salesperson.
We quickly realized that many others had the same idea so while it wasn’t a quick start, once we got to our turn on the schedule, things went quickly and smoothly.
We love our pool!
I visit often for water analysis and everyone is very helpful. We were complete pool amateurs so that speaks volumes!

Saw some of the negative reviews of this company and felt compelled to give my review.
For anyone complaining about lack of inventory you obviously have not been keeping up with the news on what is happening globally and domestic in regard to raw materials and finished product. There is a Global Supply Chain that is now struggling to keep up with demand for shipping due to delays from Covid which are still taking place. Before you place blame for empty shelves why not educate yourself first.
For those complaining about high prices, see above. It's all related and it's all supply and

I just purchased a home that was serviced by RSP&S in the past. I am a new pool owner and did not feel confident in regards to maintenance and pool care. I went in to get the water tested to see the chemicals I needed to add. After meeting with Kaylee I feel like a have a Doctorate in Pool maintenance and care. She took the time to break down all the anatomy of the pool and what I need to do. I am so glad that rising sun are my pool people. I will be a customer for life. Thank you Kaylee for everything!! You deserve a raise.

I am grateful to all the staff at Rising Sun Pools for their support while installing our in-ground pool last summer. All the staff were amazing and answered all questions. I am ultimately thrilled of the outcome and love enjoying relaxing days by the pool. Their customer service, sales, materials, resources, and intense labor is very invaluable. I highly recommend Rising Sun Pools to make your "dream a reality"...

Overall, the work was well done. When we had a warranty issue, they responded quickly and it was fixed with no charge.
The costs ended up being higher than expected, with for example the decking size being recalculated as they were about to pour the concrete- but they bent a little to work it out to our satisfaction.
I will say the sales person was impossible to nail down, but most of the rest of the employees and subcontractors were good to work with.
I recommend RSP with the caveat that as with any complicated process (including many county inspections!), issues will occur. If you are reasonable

I can't say I had a bad experience with Rising Sun, more like no experience. I contacted the company, provided all of the information requested in order to set up a visit and quote, and then waited weeks without receiving any response from the company. Not a huge project, my guess is it would have fallen around $80,000 but now I will never know, at least until I find a different company to work with.

I've been a customer of rising sun for over 15 years. I tried once a different company but the service quality was poor. Once rising sun sent Aaron to clean my pool years ago I knew I had the peace of mind to know I was being taken care of and never double charged or upsold like most companies do. Aaron is fast, reliable, friendly, professional, and truly knowledgeable of his services, products and pool systems. Rising sun is a one stop shop that meets all my pool needs at once. It is pricier than other companies yet they do great professional work and stand by their quality and reliability

Five star Customer Service for Rising Sun Pools for my Inground Lagoon Pool. My husband & I researched and read all reviews for all the pool companies in the area. We actually was deciding on signing a contract with 2 other companies on 04/01/2019 until some friends and neighbors had some horrible experiences with them both and they couldn't have our pool up and running by July 4th. We contacted Rising Sun Pools on 04/19/2019 and they had the sales rep Chip call us asap- he came out to our home did a survey of our property, discussed what we wanted- we met at the store chose our options, he went

THIS company "rising sun pools" and its owners, tara and mike do not deserve any stars, because of their unprofessionalism and lack of character towards customer service .
After they accepted my contract to oversee my pool for the three weeks I was on vacation, in July 2017,"" the service was not provided ""
none of their services were rendered, and the pool became unserviceable, and unusable throughout the whole summer.
Immediately after I was gone but a week, my pool turned completely green and to my dismay when I returned the pool was a complete cesspool, green

Let me start with the Great. Mike Edge, our installer was great, he came out for warranty work on our Salt System today. He took the time to listen before running some tests and figuring out the issue. He is very knowledgeable and if he was the entire face of the company, I'd give them 6 out of 5 stars.
Now for the reason they only got 4 stars on this review, no fault of Mike Edge. Now our interaction with Mike Vassallo, the owner, was quite irritating. He was pushing back on getting some one to come take a look at the system as he was worried we wouldn't pay the $125 service
