When I initially moved to seymour I used them, Josh was a nice guy, yet they were over priced. I moved on to Reliable in Naugatuck. But in a pinch i would only expect Josh to treat me right as a professional. Anyways I spoke to Alexandra - aka team leader (oh please) literally its another world here. Still way over priced, no clue whats what, lack of knowledge when it came to my heater etc honestly I had no choice but to go to Sharper image because reliable does not service my heater to fix my issue, the owner should take note she does not deserve a job just being nice or what

Been using them for YEARS and never had problems until this year. Owner is unresponsive, does not return phone calls (after several messages left, including going down there in person). No one could fix my water issues with the pool, never had problems until this year. Was going to purchase new liner but giving that business elsewhere (a place that actually cares and has great customer service and was able to fix my water problems). I'm especially glad not to be giving them my business after seeing the other reviews on liner installation. While A1 is convenient, it's worth my 20 min trek to a

Tested water, was given great advice on how to balance my pool water. Was very knowledgeable and professional. Although they were busy she never made me feel rushed or that my concerns where not important. I will definitely return and recommend.

Not a good experience, spoke to Haydee, she failed to call me back when Ive called a few times trying to figure out why my Pool is bad as it is, alex to quote told me to go down and test water I did with Haydee and she gave vague instructions (lack of experience) I called again and Alex (lack of experience) told me to bring it back again which didnt work... I went to Leisure time and they nailed it.... I cannot believe with all the comments about one guy they use these two people with no experience or knowledge.... something needs to change. Bad management all around. I hope the owner of

I am so EXTREMELY disappointed with this company all around. Their behavior since the beginning has been, and continues to be, unacceptable. This company DOES NOT COMMUNICATE. They are UNTRUSTWORTHY. They refuse to completely fix a problem weve had since installation by never calling us back to schedule an appointment! When we first had them come install our in-ground pool liner, they told us they would call to let us know when they were coming to drain the pool and begin the work. THEY DID NOT CALL. They showed up when we were not home and began draining the pool into a portion of our yard

Two years ago i was going to another store outside of town for my chemicals and support for my pool & my hot tub, and i was having so much trouble, last year a friend of mine said try the local guy, give him a chance, and I have been very pleased so far with the support and results Josh has given me and my husband, he pays attention and doesn't oversell, for the first time in years we saw the bottom of our pool crystal clear... and our hot tub isn't cloudy anymore either. I recommend them highly.
