Critical: Punctuality, Responsiveness
Bought the pool in June 2020 and was referred to two installers. No assistance with having pool installed otherwise. It is now June of 2021 and my pool is still sitting in boxes in my garage awaiting for an install company. Ready to return it and buy a pool from a company that installs their own!

The folks that work there are exceptional.. Todd, Nancy and Rory, the head of the service department and Jason, Nick and Cam are the best. Those folks always go above and beyond to help their customers have a great pool experience and they are working twice as hard because they are understaffed because so many people right now don't want to work. I applaud you all for getting us through this season kudos

I went into blue dolphin to inquire about purchasing a hot tub. They had two on display but nothing visible to me as to cost or the features of each. Since no one came to assist, I went to their check out line to talk with an employee. One employee helped a customer in front of me, the other was at his station head down ignoring me. Not even looking up to say he can’t assist me. Finally another employee came and asked how he can help. I told him I was interested in hot tubs. He told me we don’t have any to sell until towards end of summer. Then he told me a website to go to ( the manufacturer

Well I’m not really sure what to say about blue dolphin pools. I hired them for a pool cleaning &test/ balance the water. Two guys came out, they cleaned the pool and put chemicals in the water. Unfortunately they pool was still very dirty, and it ended up been very cloudy and green after this visit. I took my water to be tested at a different pool company near me and my chlorine levels were super elevated resulting in staining greenish/yellow in the pool. I also ended up buying an electric vacuum and doing it myself. After several treatments as recommended by a different pool company My pool

I sat down with Gene from Blue Dolphin Pools in around June of this year (2020) and discussed my options for a pool. Gene was great with helping me choose the pool that was perfect for my family and he also set realistic expectations. COVID has effected everyone and every business differently. For the pool business things were backed up tremendously and I was worried that it would delay my construction. Gene told me from day 1 that I would have a pool in the ground around October 1 and as of yesterday (10/7) my pool is in the ground. I never had to follow up with anyone from Blue Dolphin, they

The crew was great. The came in and unlike other contractors we have dealt with,, they stayed on and finished it. Contacting them was not difficult and they were responsive. They always answered our questions timely. I would highly recommend them for any pool needs. Our pool came out nicely. We are totally pleased with Dolphin Pools

Let me save you some time. Hire Blue Dolphin for your new pool installation. Being such a large expense, we spoke with multiple vendors. The owner has been doing this for years and was so helpful in helping us understand the trade-offs. We appreciated the honesty of their sharing their strengths and areas where they are developing. For instance, I wanted a feature that wasn't currently in their wheelhouse to their level of comfort. Together we formulated a plan and we're thrilled with the outcome. The people doing the work come installation time were incredibly hard working but were always courteous

Never use Blue Dolphin Pools & Spas Inc! Blue Dolphin installed a brand new pool liner over five years ago and after hundreds of calls, emails, visits to their store, promises they would be there to fix it they haven’t. Below are pictures (I just took the cover off the pool so it hasn’t been cleaned yet) but you can see by the pictures they do very subpar work (and that’s being nice) once you pay them they do not follow up. Please share with others so they don’t have this happen to them.
Blue Dolphin does not stand by their work! I have spoken with so many people who have had this happen

Completely terrible company. The service department is completely useless and run by a bunch of kids and liars. Had a service call last week to move my system at our new house and they never showed up. I had to call back on Monday and service told me they had the wrong address and the technician called and left me a message (which he never did). I was already irate from being lied to; however they re-scheduled me for the following Friday.. So now, they show up and leave me a note and a $100 bill. Note reading they couldn't get my pump working (which is what I told them 5x already and why the

I met with Jean the owner last year in April about my in ground pool and promised I would be swimming in the pool by July 11.2016 I had told him that if I wasn't going to be swimming by the end of July I would wait till the following year . He promised me I would be swimming . I didn't swim till August 11th

I wish I could give less than 1 star. This is the worst company and customer service I've ever experienced. I purchased a hot tub which has turned out be an extremely stressful experience. While the hot tub was delivered in the time frame scheduled, the various accessories were not available and we were told these would arrive later. After waiting and following up for several weeks, we finally received these. If we did not follow up on this continuously I truly question if we'd ever have received them. The installers are absolutely terrible and installed the lifter wrong not

I have owned a pool and dealt with a number of pool companies over the last 20 years. All worked on their own time schedule and left the customers at their mercy. I have grown to expect this kind of service from pool companies, especially in the New England area where the swimming season is so short therefore leaving a BIG demand for service in a limited amount of time. Last year we purchased a home that already had an inground pool. We naturally continued to use our old pool company for opening, closing, repairs and supplies. Upon opening the pool for the first time, we quickly discovered

The owner Jean is a VERY good salesman, so don't be fooled. Their crew is completely disorganized, costing me thousands more in landscaping, as well as fencing material because they never bothered looking at the plans I had professionally drawn out! Once Jean gets your money he doesn't care or return calls. 10 day install took 5 months as well. Concerned about quality as well due to constant screw ups.Ran over leach field even though clearly marked on plot plan now I have a pool of sewage in my yard. I have contacted an attorney regarding them as well due to losses.

Incompetent, argumentative idiots. I waited 4 weeks for a crew that was clueless, left my backyard practically unchanged, said they would come back and never did. Tried to fix it by calling, took 3 tries, when I said I wouldn't work with them because I didn't trust them, it turned into an argument.

The worst company to do business with. We called them to service our pool - fix the concrete - it took weeks to schedule, when they finally did schedule it, they outsourced the job to another company. That company NEVER showed up. They were supposed to do the work in May, we have been calling both Blue Dolphin and that other company and we can't get them to come out or fix it or even call us back. Also they don't have anyone licensed to look at pool heaters, they won't tell you that when you schedule your pool opening though, you have to call and ask if everything is all set and
