How Has Owning a Pool Changed Your Family’s Life?
Our back yard went from a dirt patch to an oasis. From form to function we added everything we wanted and with Taylor's help much more. We have the ability to cool down on the hot days and get warm on the cool days. Can't overstate the excellent service and professionalism of Premier Pools and Spas. They designed and delivered impeccable service!

We have a yard that everyone who visits absolutely loves. Everyday feels like a vacation!

Where Did Premier Pools & Spas Meet or Exceed Your Expectations?
PPAS exceeded our expectations from cradle to grave. It started with the initial consultation. Taylor really poured his heart and soul into listening, designing, revising, and more designing. Once the design was complete he was able to visually depict the product so we understood what we were building. Then they delivered on time and on budget. Actually they went above and beyond by integrating our landscaping (additional contractor) with the build out of the pool. This saved time and thousands of dollars. After the pool was in use they continued to help demonstrate and fix minor maintenance items that popped up.

How Has Owning a Pool Changed Your Family’s Life?
Owning a pool is absolutely great, the kids spend lots of time in the pool which allows them to bond. The pool also, allows us to spend quality family time together. Finally, it allows us the opportunity to create many memories with family and friends. It forces us to relax and unwind after busy days and long weeks.

Premier Pool & Spas met and exceeded expectation in the quality of the work done. They could use improvement in communication but overall they did a great job. I am still waiting to resolve an issue that occurred during construction of last year but I am certain that Mr. Scott Walk will come to resolve it. The reputation of PPS quality customer service will prevail.

How Has Owning a Pool Changed Your Family’s Life?
We feel like we are on vacation every day. Seeing the beautiful pool from the main living areas of our home, draws us to the outdoors to eat a meal, read, chat, have coffee and watch the sunset – not just to swim.

The design of the pool fits our yard perfectly. And while things were a bit slower than we expected, the Premier team was responsive and the craftsmen who did the work were real artists.

We have spent more time outdoors together in the pool and around the pool. It’s become a true gathering place. And a great attraction. Early mornings, late evenings … it’s all been very pleasant.

Where Did Premier Pools & Spas Meet or Exceed Your Expectations?
Premier Pools exceeded all expectations in so many areas. Stephen was helpful with design advice, with choice of materials and most of all we had perfect communication through the whole process. Our conversations helpful, and pleasant. I couldn’t have asked for anything better.

How Has Owning a Pool Changed Your Family’s Life?
Owning a pool has changed many aspects of our life. Not only has it been a wonderful addition to family fun, it has provided therapeutic relief for some of our family members. Most of all, it provided the last year and half for our family pet, Saphira! Being a large breed, old age becomes very challenging and painful for their musculoskeletal system.

Premier Pools & Spas – Temecula met our expectations in so many ways. The time that was spent to bring our thoughts and ideas to a design we fell in love with. Premier Pools exceeded our expectations with the custom build and staying with it even when sometimes you could sense, they weren't quite sure as it wasn't the typical choices of a customer. We believe that's what sets Premier Pools separate from others.

How Has Owning a Pool Changed Your Family’s Life?
When our housing association decided to close our clubhouse and pool we were devastated. We had a meditation garden in the backyard but it was always too hot to enjoy it. My husband and I decided we needed a pool and jacuzzi. I have some health issues and so does my oldest daughter so a jacuzzi was a definite must. We had a doughboy for awhile but it was dangerous using the ladder. We needed something more permanent. We decided to make it happen with our own backyard sanctuary. We had our Premiere Pool and jacuzzi just in time for our backyard wedding. It was the perfect backdrop for a wonderful but hot day.
Since then, it has been used for many occasions. It has been my daughter's sorority weekend getaway place, birthday parties, Mother's day celebration, Christmas after celebration relaxation and a wonderful place to just relax and be outside.
We were lucky enough to work with an amazing person who helped preserve some of the meditation garden and relocate other plant life to accommodate our vision.

I LOVE OUR PREMIERE POOL AND JACUZZI!

Our premier specialist was Doug Patterson.
He worked with us to change the design to fit our vision. He promised to have it done before our backyard wedding and it made it happen. It was a beautiful backdrop to a memorable day. He also worked to incorporate the flagstone had been gifted into our design which was no easy chore as they were not even pieces or sizes but he made it happen. He was very easy to work with to make our vision come true just in time for our special day. Having a pool was a dream come true for both of us. What better time to have a dream come true than our wedding.

How Has Owning a Pool Changed Your Family’s Life?
BRING ON THE DOG DAYS OF SUMMER! While we’re fortunate enough to live in the former avocado capital of the world and enjoy the Mediterranean climate of Fallbrook, California, shortly after moving into our “forever home”, we realized a sparkling swimming pool is just what we needed to thoroughly enjoy the fast-approaching dog days of summer with our adolescent boys, Ranger Jackson and Scout LaRue. Enter, Elio Gallardo, pool designer, and Jose Rodriguez, project manager, of Premier Pools. From the initial design (so exciting!) to the final “meet-your-pool-equipment” meeting, Elio, Jose and the rest of the Premier Pools team were extremely professional, knowledgeable and downright fun to work with. Clearly, two thumbs (and two paws) up from The King Family!

As mentioned above, Elio, Jose and the rest of the Premier Pools team were profressional, knowledgeable and fun to work with it. We are extremely pleased with our pool and the entire six-month process to get here. Now, if we could only figure out a way to effectively keep all of God's winged-creatures away from our 35' "pond"!

We are spending more time together as a family and now swimming for exercise. We are truly enjoying outdoor Southern California living.

How Has Owning a Pool Changed Your Family’s Life?
Dennis Carson story:
After my wife and I bought our first house, we went to the home and garden show to get ideas for our home. 
We came into the section that had vendors for pools. My wife said NO WAY…
It's way out of our budget. But she still went to the booth to keep me happy.
We met with one of the best people we have met in our lives. His name is Dennis Carson. By far the most genuine, kind, caring person we have ever met.
Dennis talked with us for about an hour about pools. He was never pushing us to buy…
Just giving us ideas of what we can do. I'm the type of person who likes to go big or go home. So, that put the swim spa way over what my wife was wanting to talk about. Dennis wanted to make sure we were both happy. After talking with him, we agreed to have Dennis over to talk about ideas of swim spa budget.
Dennis came over to talk with us about the job price and what designs we can do. We were 100% honest with him. We didn't have extra money right now with a new baby on the way. He understood. After Dennis found out we had a baby on they way, he called us once a month, he never asked us about the swim spa budget. 
After a few years, we had our money saved. We met with Dennis again. When we first met with him, we talked to him about doing a swim spa. After talking to Dennis, we could do a pool with a spa. We met with Dennis again to show us plans at their show room. We loved everything that the team had designed. A few weeks after that, we started the job. They started the job February 1st and we were swimming in the pool by April 1st. Our oldest son is training for the polar bear club. 😂
We have used the pool/spa everyday since it got installed. When someone says it's a bad investment, don't listen to them. We have thousands of great memories because of our pool and Dennis Carson. It has saved water and added value to our property.
We would highly recommend Dennis Carson and Premier Pools for any job! Amazing work, great equipment and phenomenal price!
We still get calls from Dennis to this day just to say hi.
The Kirby Family.

How Has Owning a Pool Changed Your Family’s Life?
Our objective was to have a backyard oasis extending from our existing lanai for outdoor entertaining. We now have a large screen enclosed outdoor entertainment room with our pool as the centerpiece. We had relatives from Germany visit with us in April and we spent the majority of their visit in the pool area for lunch and dinner and entertaining into the night. They especially enjoyed the large deck space, large tanning ledge and waterfall feature. We had a heat pump installed which gives us the luxury of enjoying our pool for a longer swim season. Our favorite time is at night with the pool lights highlighting the area. We now spend plenty of time outdoors eating meals and just hanging out. We are looking forward to a large 4th of July pool party celebration for all of our friends and relatives. The pool is large enough to accommodate a large numbers of swimmers at one time.

Where Did Premier Pools & Spas Meet or Exceed Your Expectations?
My wife and I spent days designing our pool. We waited 5 years after building our new home and wanted a very specific design. Jimmy and his crews were able to replicate the design and dimensions perfectly. He was open to our requests for specifics (our screen print tile dolphin, crab, and sea turtle and the lighted bubbler in our large tanning ledge which is synchronized with the other pool lights ). He helped us with prepping the deck area with water, drain and electrical stub outs for a future outdoor kitchen. He also recommended having the existing lanai tiled in advance of the concrete deck being poured which resulted in a smooth finished transition. The tile to deck transition has gotten many complements. He was very careful to not disturb anymore of the surrounding property than necessary. to complete the project.His diligence in the face of a record 92 inch rainfall summer for our area is definitely commended.
