Anthony & Sylvan installed our pool eight years ago so we just stayed with them. I've used them for the closing of the pool and also when we had to do a repair. We had some pool equipment damaged when a tree fell next door and fell onto the equipment. I had to have it replaced so Anthony & Sylvan handled that as well. I like that when we schedule a time, they're usually very accurate showing up for that time. The people that have come to do the actual work for pool closing and the repair work seem knowledgeable. It was fairly painless for the work that they did.

I recently looked up online for Anthony & Sylvan Pools and saw a lot of good reviews. So, we decided to get someone from their company to come in and give us an estimate and talk to us about the pool. The rep was very impressive and informative that we felt like we could trust him. So, we chose Anthony & Sylvan over the other options that we had. They put in our pool and used them for the seasonal opening and closing services. They set a time window which they were going to finish the pool, they start it and finish it. There was no add-on pricing and no nickel-and-diming that we read about in reviews with other companies. It was very cut and dry and we like that it’s very quick.
The person who was in charge of the bills was exceptionally friendly and open. He was always available over the phone to come in and handle any issues if we had any. And everybody whom we dealt with through them has been really friendly and courteous that we never had any issues with them at all. Our payment was easily processed when we did all online through their website even before the work started. The money part was easy because they read the full price and that's when they accept it. Anthony & Sylvan was very professional considering the few other companies that were their competitors that we dealt with. We liked that they didn't try to upsell us or push us in a certain direction. Also, my husband and I really liked that they listened to what we wanted and delivered exactly what we visualized about the pool.

Anthony & Sylvan Pools built my pool back in 2006 and I also had their Pool Gold service. The reps are always friendly and helpful in getting the problems solved. The vacuum had a problem because the hose broke off and made the pool black. They coordinated it with the manufacturer and they took care of me. It was covered and they made it all nice and clean.

Anthony & Sylvan built our pool and, so far, we used them for closing. We just completed the pool this summer, used it for three months and it has been shut down for the season. I’ve had multiple interactions with their reps by phone, email correspondence and also in person and I've found them easy to work with. They've done what they said they were going to do. I like the experience that they bring to both the product and service area as well as their relationship with all the subcontractors. We were incredibly impressed with the subcontractors that they have cultivated and continued to work with for years. I like the quality of work and service and the fact that there's an established organization standing behind the pool. I'm sure if issues arise in the future, we'll be going back to the same subs that Anthony & Sylvan had built a relationship with.

We purchased a pool and did everything through Anthony & Sylvan. We worked with Ashley from Doylestown who did the set-up for our closing and our opening. We also worked with Glenn who was so sincere, wonderful and caring. We did all of our pool testings at their office and they were amazing. We took a little bottle that they gave us and every week, we got it tested. They would also give us a written printout. They're very efficient, kind and patient. My husband and I were very busy and they were so accommodating. If we make an appointment with them, they came right over. We had this one problem and they figured out how to take care of it immediately. They gave us exactly what to do, they answered all questions and we never had any problems.
Anthony & Sylvan was the most responsive company I personally have ever dealt with in anything I've ever done in my house. We trust them wholeheartedly. They built a nice lasting relationship with us and we didn't even look at going anywhere else to open or close the pool. We made all of our purchases for our pool with them. They're a very efficient company. I also love the fact that they have everything. We can purchase materials and all the stuff that we need. Two other people in our development were getting Sylvan pools because we talked so much to our neighbors. Everyone loves our pool and we talk very highly of it. They've been a wonderful company overall.

We’ve been using Anthony & Sylvan for 15 years, and we’re very happy. In the first house I owned, it was just Anthony then who built our pool and then they built the pool at our second home that my husband owned and when we moved in here, we inherited a 35-year-old Anthony pool. They do the best job of servicing their own pools. It was natural that we would go with Anthony & Sylvan and we’ve never been disappointed with them. I like their level of competency. The guys who work for them do a good job and they’re nice to talk to. We had a renovation on our old pool two years ago, and the people that they sent out were experts and really lovely. They made it very painless. They were very nice people to work with and they arrived and got out when they were supposed to.

Anthony & Sylvan always comes through. They open and close my pool, and they’re the only ones that have really touched it. If I have anything that was broken, I call them. My mom has an Anthony & Sylvan and she’s been very happy with it, so I got their services, too. I also looked at a couple people when we were deciding, but I felt the most confident in what Anthony & Sylvan was doing.
I like the people that work for them. The people I talk to on the phone are always great. And the service people that have been here are always polite, they let us know when they’re going to be here, and they show up on time. Sometimes, when I’m not here, they just do whatever they have to do and they leave everything in great shape. Last year, when I had to close, I was supposed to empty the pool at a certain time but I started it too late, and the service tech was so nice and he came back at 8 o’clock at night to finish it, which he didn’t have to because it would’ve been okay the way it was. He went above and beyond. I would definitely recommend them.

Originally, we had Anthony & Sylvan Pools put the pool in 25 years ago, so we went back to them and got their pool service too, and we haven't had any service issues. We had the pool, then we closed it down, then I had Anthony & Sylvan when we filled the water pool up. I call them and they give me a schedule for the opening and the closing, which I do every year. They also did some repairs around the pool for us and we had them put in new tiling, and we were very pleased with that. I also like their customer service, which is very personable. I can always get in contact with Anthony & Sylvan any time I want to and the reps are always willing to answer any question that I have. One time, I didn't know how to do a backwash and I called Anthony & Sylvan, and the reps walked me through it, then they sent me through email some information on how to do this, and that was good for me as a female.

My pool was installed and built by Anthony & Sylvan Pools. I use them mostly for closing because of the warranty on my pool and if they come to close, I let them know everything and ask them to get me if they need anything. I had to get a new filter put in one time and I also had them retile my coping in the pool two years ago. Some of the tiles are coming up now so I'd be putting in a warranty service.

We’ve had the pool for about 25 years and Anthony & Sylvan installed it for us. We call them if we run into problems where the pool is concerned and we also use their services for opening and closing. We’ve been using them a long time and they seem to be reliable. However, different people comes every year to come out to open and close the pool and sometimes it takes a long time to check out what the problem is if they have a problem. But mostly, the guy who’s in charge was knowledgeable and he worked fast.

The Anthony & Sylvan team put the pool in then for the first 10 years, I went to the neighborhood guy for pool service. But one year, he didn't close it correctly because the next year when I started the pump, there were troubles in the flow of the lower end of the pool. Since then, I’ve been taking Anthony & Sylvan for seasonal service. We do our own stuff during the week and we go every two weeks to the local guy around here to have the water checked and get the chemicals out in the water. So we have Anthony & Sylvan just for the opening and closing, the beginning and the end. The best thing is that I can trust them to do the right thing and based on my previous experience with the other person that I had, they seem to be a lot better. I have very little interaction with them because they come out on the days that I work, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. But I tell them what I want to be done and they do it well.

Anthony & Sylvan had been around for so many years and I chose them to build our pool because they seemed to be a good choice. Tom, the salesman, came out and was very personable. He projected a sense of his knowledgeable and he's confident about what he had to say in the sales presentation he makes for customers. I had complete confidence in him. However, once the construction started, it seemed as though everyone that showed up was a sub-contractor and sometimes the work was not always performed as well as the customer might expect. What happened was, when the pool started taking shape and different sub-contractors came out to do different aspects of building the actual pool, I would come home from work and walk around the pool as it was progressing and I would find things that were not correct and I would have to call the project manager and have it corrected.
But once the pool was done, it looked great. They also gave me reading materials about how to take care of the pool and different things about it as well as how to enjoy it. But when I would ask a sub-contractor for any suggestion about how to do such and such, they’d tell me that I didn’t have to do that. So there was a conflict between the written material and the spoken word about my responsibilities as a home owner and taking care of the product that they produced and that was frustrating.
The pool was finished the end of September of 2016 so we kept it open for a few more weeks, then we told Anthony & Sylvan to come and close it because the weather got cold. So this year when they opened it March of 2017, was the first year we got to enjoy the pool. Then they closed it the second time recently. Since we didn’t have to deal with subcontractors or aggravating things, our experience has been more enjoyable. If I had a problem with the pool, I would call the service department and they would come out and fix it. Things seemed to be much better. I had a problem with a computer board in my power center and Sean came out to fix the problem. He did a very good job, answered any questions that I had and provided a bit of information about tips on some things to do if I have issues.
However, my overall sense is that Anthony & Sylvan does not talk to their customers in a way that is helpful for them taking care of the pool or knowing what to do if they have an issue. Basically, they build the pool and they leave the customer on their own to figure things out. That’s discouraging because they brag about they’ve been in business for 70 years and you’ll be happy when they build your pool, but they don’t follow through on the fact. If they’ve been in business for so long, they should have better customer service and more helpful conversations with their customers.
They should also give out better literature because the one they gave me needs to be updated. Things that were said in there are not correct. They had a pool testing program in there that I called and asked their rep if I should get on it, but I found out that they don’t even use it anymore. Other than that, I’m happy with our pool and I have recommended Anthony & Sylvan to a friend. But I told my friend that he’ll have to keep a watch on what they do because the job isn’t always done right unless he is there to make sure that what’s supposed to be done is being done.

We had been watching Anthony & Sylvan for about 10 years but at the time we couldn’t really afford them. Now we are in a better position and so we’ve decided to go with them. Our pool was installed and we got to use it for two weeks this year because it got put in not too long ago. We used Anthony & Sylvan for the whole construction and for closing our pool which we had about a month ago.
I like that when the Anthony & Sylvan team says they’re going to be here, they’re here and they’re on-time. That was the biggest thing I was very impressed with them. Most of my interactions with them were done through Doug, the guy that we purchased the pool from. I’d always interact with him if we wanted to change anything, or if we wanted this or that, and he was always quick to take care of our needs. We’re very happy with the purchase of the pool and with what they’ve done. There would be a different team each time, which was kind of strange, but all of them did it very well and all phases of the installation were great. We’ll recommend Anthony & Sylvan.

We had Anthony & Sylvan make us a free-form pool with a spa and two additional waterfalls. We were assigned a project manager and we worked with the team and their rep at the office since the office was monitoring the different stages of the build, scheduling appointments with the contractors, and linking them up with us. Also, at least twice a week, we had visits from the project manager who was surveying the work, taking pictures and sending it over to us by e-mail with a report on the advancement of the works. It was very good. We love the pool's design and the quality of the finishing and we look forward to spending time in it with family and friends.

We spoke to a friend of ours and Anthony & Sylvan had put in their pool, and they had good things to say. Anthony & Sylvan replaced an old pool that we had had on the ground. Our pool is free-form but we asked for a different style than what the normal free-form patterns were, and we were accommodated. I love the color and I love that it’s heated. It’s comfortable all the time. Harold, our project manager, was phenomenal. True customer service comes out when things don’t come off without a hitch, and the ways that this company overcame those problems really help these guys stand apart.

Our pool was probably 27 years old and I believe that Sylvan built it originally. We had a company that closes our pool and we were trying to get his contractor to give us a price to redo the pool for a couple of years now. We had another guy that we've done work for and we tried to get him for over a year to get pricing. However, my son actually wound up getting a brochure in the mail and that's when we called and got tied up with Anthony & Sylvan.
The guy who came out to meet with us to sell us the pool in general was excellent. He was a young fellow, very detail-oriented and made some good suggestions. We had a gunite pool and they power washed it and redid the tile. They wound up fixing three or four collapsed lines so they did quite a bit of work. The person who scheduled the work was very good, very cooperative and returned phone calls. He was excellent. We had a lady that we dealt with for finance and she was also very nice.
The whole pool, the look in general, the brick coping and the tile work turned out very nice. The only one negative, was the project manager who was a little difficult to deal with. He was the one we call when there was an issue and to get some things done. Overall, I would recommend them, from the person that we met with to the guy who we scheduled with, to the lady and to the workers who were all very polite.

I had done some background searches on pool companies in the area that had been around for a while and Anthony & Sylvan has been pretty established. I purchased a free-form pool from them. It's 7,000 gallons, about 21 feet long and 10 feet wide on the end. It also narrows in the middle and has rock waterfalls. The project manager and the scheduling team were both great. They answered all my questions and were very proactive. They sent e-mails every week and they told me what was going to happen that week. They were also pretty much always on time.
Even though we had one day of a weather setback where it rained and they couldn’t do what they were scheduled to do, the rest of the time, they were exactly on schedule. So far, my favorite thing about the pool is the waterfalls. I teach in school and I look forward to just hanging out and lounging around and playing with my kids in the pool.

We contacted Anthony & Sylvan and they came and gave us a great first opinion of their product. They laid it all out for us and it wasn't completely to what we've said. We wanted the pool designed and one thing led to another, and we didn't look any further. When they were doing the pool at the very beginning, every single person who came out knew what they were doing and they were extremely polite. We had a rough start because weather was less than cooperative that fall and so the pool got started and then we had a big empty hole for the winter. We had to wait for the spring, when the weather has decided it was going to cooperate again. But they made sure that where they were able to stop wasn't going to cause any further delay and they could pick right back up. There wasn't going to be any dirt falling in. It was at a perfect stopping spot so even if the weather was less than cooperative, they were great.
Working with Anthony & Sylvan is convenient. We've been using their opening and closing service and I like the professionalism that the men show. They're always polite and they know exactly what they're doing. They're barely here at the house for very long , but when I have gone outside, I've spoken with them and they're all very personable and very knowledgeable. That's basically the reason we used them. We also changed from a chlorination pool to a salt water one a couple of years ago and they did that for us as well.
The one person whom we've had most interaction with is Chris. He is a wonderful guy. He talked to us at length about what's going on and why he was doing what he was doing.

They're pretty direct, too, which I like. I love those guys.

We have a very large pool. It's nine feet deep at the longest and 48 feet long and 28 feet wide. We get Anthony & Sylvan for our pool service and they schedule their visits well. Their team comes on time, do their work methodically and they're very quick. When they come to close, it's not always straight on, especially as the pool ages. But they troubleshoot very well and each member of their team seems to be very knowledgeable.

We started talking about having a pool about four years ago and our friends who have an Anthony & Sylvan pool recommended them. We had to interview some competitors before we decided that Anthony & Sylvan was the best choice for us. Their team was always there, were responsive when we had issues, and they got back to us at a fairly good time. We had to escalate a couple of times but we got our answers. We got a free-form pool that has a spa and a grotto with a waterfall. The pool brings our family together and it’s almost as important as our dinner table. I would definitely recommend Anthony & Sylvan to build a pool.

Anthony & Sylvan is a long-standing name that's been in business for 75 years, so when we’re looking for a pool, we looked for a company that would be around to be able to take care of us if anything ever went wrong. Also, we like the longevity of their warranty. Our pool is free-form that has a spa, and we had them put in a fire pit that they incorporated into our existing patio. So, our pavers cover the existing patio and also goes around the pool in the spa area and the fire pit. We also added some bar stools where we could sit and watch TV that we mounted on our outdoor patio. We are in Texas and the only way you can enjoy your backyard is with a pool. So, we enjoy being able to enjoy our backyard and not fry here. Our daughter is on the swim team so she’s constantly in the pool. It’s coming quite handy and we love it.
Michelle, the person that we worked with, was fantastic. She is all-knowing and if she doesn’t know the answer, she’ll find somebody who could try and answer. Even when I have a question today, I’d still go back to Michelle. On the other hand, David, the project manager, stopped coming to our house. We used Michelle to help finish out projects and she was scheduling people to get out in lieu of David. Whatever problems we had, Anthony & Sylvan stepped up and took care of it.

The building experience that we had with Anthony & Sylvan the first time was one of the main contributors to us going back to them on building the second pool. The pool is geometric and we worked with the design consultant to come up with a pool that fit our needs and the size for the area where we had to do our pool in. We also had a detailed schedule of the different phases of the project and I was contacted by the project manager and by the scheduling individual to verify that those dates were going to work for us and they were very punctual on what they said was going to happen during the installation. We don’t have a pool within our community so it was nice to have one that my kids can enjoy whenever they want to.

I thought it would be better for me to have a pool because of my age, for exercise. My daughter mentioned Anthony & Sylvan so I called them up. I also called up another pool company and the waiting time was too long before it was finished. The project manager from Anthony & Sylvan was wonderful. He was very nice and was careful in listening to me. However, I was upset with the workers that came at times. They all had very poor communication and they were mean to me. But the project manager was very helpful to me and he calmed me and talked with a couple of bosses. I got a five-foot deep rectangular pool and it has a step center to get in on both sides. It looks beautiful and I have it decorated nicely all around and it’s healthy for me.
I have a problem, though, because they put this device on the outside of the house faucet that I had. The faucet was 22 years old and they connected this brand-new device to it, so it was leaking. When I turn the water on, the pressure is so high that it sprays in all directions and I have to really jump to the side not to get wet. I called them up and pointed it out. Phil, who runs that department, sent somebody up and he looked at it, but he didn’t say anything. They never came to fix it.
There also was another occasion where I had a church party and the little vacuum cleaner that goes in the bottom of the pool that runs around and sucks up any little leaves is connected to about seven pounds of shorter hoses that are connected to one. The end hose is connected into the wall into a device that brings the suction all around. We took this vacuum cleaner out and put it at the end of the pool after the party. It was in the evening then. So, the hose was four hours under the water. My daughter put the device back into the pool device wall. When the pool came on the next day, it made a mess out of the hoses. It was like a ball of worms clinging altogether. There was hardly any leftover hose to pull and run around in the bottom pool. They were all curled up. So, I called and asked somebody to come out, and they did. He said that I should have had the hoses laid straight on the concrete.
They should never be curled but nobody has informed me. The people who brought the hoses, put it together, put it in the water, and off they went. They never instructed me that I should have the hose lying straight. I asked how much that was and said that I have warranty a three-year warranty on this vacuum cleaner. But they said that I messed it up and that it would cost almost $300. I almost dropped dead. I can’t afford that. So, I went to a swimming pool place here in town, Leslie’s and I paid $11.99 times six pieces to make this long hose together like it was. So, it was below $100 that I paid actually, and they wanted almost $300 for that. That is very disappointing that it left a very sour taste in my bones. My biggest complaint was when they dig up the dirt, they dug up sprinkler lines, those PVC lines, that was connected to areas that needed those lines. I had to pay for it to have that done. It was very upsetting. I was angry with the experience.

Also, things were done in a timely manner. The demolition crew came on one day and the installation crew was going to come on the next day, but it was raining so there was one day in between. I was really quite amazed at how quick they were. I thought that they can’t finish that in one day, but they did in both times. That was lovely in terms of not having to have schedule disrupted at home by people being here.

Met with the sales consultant again to finalize design of the pool… i.e. the size we want, shape, tiles...etc. On Aug 11, 2017 630 pm, he then informed us he will draw the plan up and we need to look at it and either approve or make any changes to it. We got a phone call from Sharleen ** an Anthony & Sylvan sales administrator on Aug 22, 2017 asking to schedule a meet and greet with our sales rep/ design consultant and project manager.
I told her we weren't to start the until spring of 2018. We are not in a hurry to dig right now, she reassured me that this meeting will not trigger a dig. They are just going to lay out the design in our yard and if we need to make any changes we do it that day, so I agreed to the meeting. On August 23rd she sent us a confirmation of the meeting set for Aug 29, she also attached a copy of the pool plan to look over. Aug 29th came along and it was raining. Sales/design consultant called to see if we can push back time, I said, “Sure.” He called again 2 hours later and asked if we can re-schedule and I said, “Sure.” I told him I am going away on business and will not be back until October, he asked if we were planning to start dig while I was away and I said, “NO we are not in a hurry to start dig, we are thinking spring of 2018…” then he said, “That's what I thought...” thought about it a minute and then decided to keep appointment anyways.
They came laid out the pool in yard. Husband was not happy with the size of the pool and wanted to make some changes, so we came in told them we did not like the original design that Sharleen sent. Need to make some changes, told them what needs to be changed and added. They said they will draw it up and sent it to us for approval. I asked what would be the next step and they said once we approve drawing we tell them when to dig and they show up. They then asked us if we were planning to finance thru one of their banks, we told them NO we are getting a loan from my job in the SPRING. They left and have not heard from them since. Fast forward September 21st 2017 9 am. I got a text that someone is digging my yard, I asked my mom who was digging and what were they digging, and she said the pool people. Never saw or approved the revised plan, never authorized the dig. Did not know they were coming.
I call the guy in charge and asked who authorized this. We never approved the plan. His reply was "oh you never saw the plan what’s your email", he then sent it to me and I noticed that there was little marking and it was stamped approve 2 days earlier. We never saw the drawing. Completely different drawing from the first one we rejected. Called the project manager told them this was not authorized... and the best he can say was, “I can stabilize the hole and put granite but you have to pay $49,000 now.” (We’ve never approved the drawing or authorized them to dig.) So basically trapping us into getting a pool now, when technically we still had up to 11 months to back up as long as dig hasn't started. Or fill the hole.
We told him if he's filling the hole he is putting sod in it. We have a birthday party in a week and half, he informed us he can't do that. That was not company policy, but apparently trespassing in someone's property and destroying their yard without permission is ok. It took my husband asking for their legal number for their VP to call him Alan Walker… but he basically told us the same thing... “Too bad we dug up a pool you never approved the plan on or without permission... but we’re not going to stabilize the hole in your yard unless you pay for it now... or we can fill it up and put grass seed...” I told my husband to check the mail since I was out of town. Maybe we made the mistake somehow...
He found a mail from Anthony & Sylvan containing building permit. Only problem is the plan that was attached to building permit is not the pool they dug up. COMPLETELY different. Not only that the plan attached to the building permit was the first plan we rejected. So the VP didn't want to talk to us anymore and passed us on to consumer relations. He agreed to sod my yard, only if I take down my review about their company. He also offered free opening and closing of what I have no clue. We don't own a pool so it can't be that, maybe my kids’ playground? So I finally told them, “Fine fill the hole and give us our deposit back.” And he flat out said, “You're not getting the whole thing because there are building permit fees...” We never approved any plans, the plans you guys submitted for building permit were not only completely wrong but never approved by us.

A neighbor had Anthony & Sylvan do their pool and I really liked it. We liked everybody that we met with from Anthony & Sylvan and we liked their product. We got a rectangular, salt water pool and this is the second pool for us. We’ve always had one in our house, so when we moved in, we waited about a year before we put one in. This was a very large project and everybody was flawless. They were so organized and emailed us every step that was approaching the project and I never had to ask where anybody was. Everybody was very concise with their answers and it was seamless.
We build and do a lot of house renovations, and this was the easiest by far. I love the way our pool looks. It’s very beautiful and I love the shade and the coping that we used around it. It came out really nicely, and it looks like it’s always been in our backyard. All in all, having a pool has been very enjoyable for us. Charlotte’s summers are very hot, so we’re looking to have some nice family time out there.

We started looking to build a pool about three years ago. I got a referral from a friend who has built a couple of times with Anthony & Sylvan. Their scheduler was very good about keeping me informed about upcoming appointments or the next steps in the building process. My pool’s now complete and I like how clean and nice it looks. We enjoy being able to spend time with the kids. We have something to do with them in the summer without having to go out to a public pool and deal with the crowd and travel.

Anthony & Sylvan Pools built our pool in Kingwood, TX and we had a very bad experience with them. They did not keep what they promise to the clients, the workers made several mistakes in the pool that they should repair later but one of them (white spots on the bottom of the pool that look terrible at night with the lights) are still there, they could not fix them. Lupe who works with them was in charge of the construction, he told us the pool would be ready in December but it was ready almost end of January! Every time we called him he never answer the phone. We paid a fortune for our pool and the result was nice, the pool looks beautiful but with too many issues, frustrations and mistakes in between... So be very careful and do not believe everything they promise.

We just had Anthony Sylvan put in a free form gunite pool. We went with A&S because we really liked our salesman, Tom **, and I did research and was happy to see what customers had to say about them. After 9 weeks, the water went in 2 weeks tomorrow. During the entire project there was very little communication at all! We were given an extensive list of impressive titled persons and phone numbers that we would be hearing from during the project, that didn't happen. In fact, when we had concerns, we had to leave voice mail messages and would eventually be addressed through an email. This company must strive to keep their employees off the phones :).
We are very happy with the craftsmanship of the pool, but if you are looking for customer service, buyer beware!!! My husband and I are very easy going, and have been in customer service ourselves for 40+ years, I cannot begin to tell you what a disappointment dealing with A&S has been. I won't go into all the details, I am someone who values reviews and I just want to put mine out there for anyone considering A&S for your luxury pool, for what should have been a fun experience has turned into something far less than what we were hoping.
Our pool has been operating less than 2 weeks and yesterday we noticed a big issue with the filter. We have called, left messages, emailed A&S and have not heard anything back from anyone. We spent hours reading and researching yesterday the issue in hopes that we could fix it ourselves, but to no avail! I have called 5 pool stores in my area and got a bevy of information, I think we know what the problem is, but we are hesitant to try anything as this should be under warranty, and don't want A&S to be able to say we did something to void it. We have our family and grandchildren to our home for Sunday dinner and we are not able to enjoy our pool today because no one at A&S can return a phone call! I'm hoping our experience is an isolated one for A&S, but again, buyer beware!

After getting surveys and opinions off the internet, I had Anthony & Sylvan install my geometric pool. The project manager and scheduling team were very clear every step of the way. They made sure I understood the process and the duration. They kept in touch almost every day with anything I needed to consider that might wind up being unexpected than we planned for. All my interactions with them have been very positive. I like the water features and the design of our saline pool. It's really nice for just the comfort of the water compared to using chemical chlorine. I’m very happy with what it turned out.

When we were shopping for pool contractors, we talked to three or four different ones. I’ve heard a lot of horror stories from the neighbors that had the worst experience with their pool company. Anthony & Sylvan was then recommended by a friend. From sales and design, all the way through construction, and even afterwards with the warranty, the whole project has been very pleasant and smooth. We now have a freeform, lagoon style pool with a spa, a large sun shelf, a rock water feature and a bubble machine. The pool is heated, it’s a good use of space in our yard and the kids love it.

When I was getting my things approved for the pool, a lady up in the clubhouse confirmed that I made the right decision after she told me that Anthony & Sylvan are fantastic. Also, whoever I talk to about them only got positive feedback. Ron, the project manager, was on top of the construction of the pool and was absolutely wonderful. They showed us what we could have for the backyard, brought the procedure step by step printed out, and they did exactly what they said they were going to do. We knew exactly what was going to happen throughout the whole process. They knew what they’re doing, and came exactly when they said they were going to come.
The pool that Anthony & Sylvan Pools made for my backyard turned out to be everything that I wanted. It is gorgeous. We chose to have salt water in it because it is better for your skin. It also has a deep end in the middle, has no shallow end, and you can do laps from end to end in it. My husband, a handicap who's in a wheelchair, needs to exercise his legs so I knew it would be good for him to get into the pool and exercise. It would be good for me as well to get in it, exercise, and swim especially during the heat of days in the desert.

Anthony & Sylvan was referred to me by my friend who had his pool designed and built by them. Also, we went with them because out of all of the other competitors, they were really good and gave honest pricing. They didn't try to mark us up. The process went very smoothly and their team was great. We had rain a couple of times, but they worked through it. The scheduling was on point and everything went according to plan, with the exception of a few bad weather days, which was out of their control. They let us know that they would be out the next day weather-permitting and stayed in touch. If we had any questions, they were available 24/7. My new pool has a grotto feature, a raised spa, and rock features around it. We're very happy with it.

Anthony & Sylvan have built two pools for us. During the time the second pool was being built, we've had very good interactions with their rep, David, especially on any issues, concerns that I had during and after the construction. He was very quick to address every concern that we had and made changes. We had some features that included the stuffing of fire pit valves and plumbing and Anthony & Sylvan were very well in tuned to on the fly changes to the current work order plans. So overall, it's a very good experience with the team.
Also, we wanted the second pool to be very conventional. But we went ahead with the rectangular front pool with a spa attached to it, which is my favorite feature of it. The kidney-shaped pool we had before this new one didn't have a spa. And this new pool they’ve made has a modern look compared to what we had before. We're looking forward to being able to enjoy with the family and friends using the new pool and being able to walk out and enjoy the amenities there.

Please find this review of Anthony & Sylvan Pools as a consumer awareness before signing a contract. Anyone familiar with doing a major home improvement project has surely experienced obstacles, delays, and/or inconveniences. Upon deciding to take the "plunge" associated with an inground pool, we anticipated a couple of delays related to climate such as Spring rain.
However, we were not prepared for inadequate communication related to our complete project. Initially, our timetable was flawless, Salesperson Jason ** had been to our home 2 years before and again when we decided to pursue our dream. He graciously took the time to go over our plans and even kept our original plans from the earlier visit years before. His communication was diligent from concept changes to final plan assessment and the final "meet and greet" to go over final concepts and meet the Project Manager, Vance **. At the "Meet and Greet" all seemed to be in order and ready to move forward. Everything in accordance to the plans and contract were introduced and appropriate questions asked and answered: Payment plan, construction timeline, and inspections from township and PM.
What should have been my first clue was when I asked for dates associated with the overall project timelines, Excavation>Rebar>Gunite>Tile and Coping>Concrete Decking(Sidewalk around Pool)>and Plaster/Final Inspection. Now I realize the fact that weather plays an important part in the process, but whenever something was scheduled and the subcontractors utilized by AS were scheduled, they took it upon themselves that the weather was "dicey" and not show up. Now customarily, I could understand IF the subcontractors called the customer explaining this OR at the very least contact AS and inform them so they could inform the consumer. Fool me once, shame on you... fool me twice, shame on me!
Secondly and in our estimation, the major offense was the inaccurate accounting in association of our payment plan. Austin **, Construction Project Manager, set up our appointment and explained in an email, the amount(s) needed to be deposited prior to or on the day of the project(s) requiring payment(s). We completed this through their iSwim account which is conveniently setup online and efficient. Unfortunately, the payment amounts requested and submitted were overly abundant to our project and not in compliance to our contract. Numerous emails were sent trying to confirm the correct price but were not answered. It was not until I rechecked our contract and double checked our account that I noticed the overpayment of our pool project and our payment made in full for the entire project WITHOUT completion of the project!
The lack of communication, in our estimation based upon our current experience with Anthony & Sylvan Pools, is due to the fact of over extension. While the company has a sales office in our area, Lititz, Pennsylvania, ALL of the subcontractors are from the Philadelphia and/or near the state of Delaware! While I am only surmising this, my guess is a lowered price quoted to them from Unionized Contractors: excavation, plumbing, electrical, steelwork, and concrete masonry then passed onto the consumers and splitting the profits. This will undoubtedly be denied and explained in a way that will incorporate delays associated to weather, subcontracted scheduling inconveniences, etc. etc. etc!
What really transpires is the fact that AS has too many people associated with customers specific projects. Instead of assigning one project scheduling associate in relation to one customer, AS has a multiple call center to which you try and contact the appropriate associate only to have that associate(s) phone message center not accepting messages because it is either not setup or full... with complaints... I ASSUME. In our particular case, we were given the names of Alba and Noemi ** construction project schedulers. As Customer Service representatives, when a consumer inquires as to the status of their next timeline it is usually met with a filed log of the completed portions and next required project. In our case, our inquiries were met with, "Was this completed?", "Did you have your inspections by your PM and township?", "What are you calling about?", "We'll get back to you."
If it weren't for handling our own affairs and in constant communication on our own behalf, our project would not be halfway done and our contract was signed on February 11, 2017. We were told barring weather, Memorial Day could be a possibility... but definitely by the July 4, 2017 summer holiday. It is now July 3, 2017 and no work has been done since June 20, 2017, which was the Coping and Tiling phase of which their subcontractor tries to upsell tile design for the steps and pool for a cash only payment to them while they are there. No check just cash... shady! All that is left to do is the concrete decking around the pool, plastering, and final inspection. Pre Deck Inspection was done by PM Vance on June 21, 2017! Why in God's name does it take a week in between inspections or longer to schedule the next phase(s) especially since the project is completely paid for! At this rate, we will be closing the pool and not using it until 2018!
Utterly ridiculous, to put it plainly, our inquiries to have our PM's boss, Mike **, call us have been unheeded nor has he answered our emails. Now on behalf of Mike **, he instructed his PM to contact us to; 1. Receive an AS gift card for our overpayment amount and an additional $250 for the inconvenience they have caused us. 2. He graciously have his PM, Vance **, permission to contact another Deck Mason not normally utilized, David ** of Architectural Concrete Design, who is phenomenal!
Dave contacted us one day after informing AS of our complete dissatisfaction of this whole project timeline. Dave was gracious, understanding, concerned, and informed that our project is completely paid for and we are still in limbo! He took the time with my wife as I was unavailable to incorporate our ideas and his intuition providing us with a plan emailed to us 11:30 pm that same night and asked us to pick from his proposals over the next day! We chose our deck design and signed his proposal while away for the day and answered us within minutes! Kudos, David **!!!
In conclusion, while Anthony & Sylvan Pools has a wonderful design and sales department, their choices regarding subcontractors and their internal communication practices are subpar to say the very least. Plan on waiting between paid project phases a minimum of 2 weeks or longer. Ask numerous questions regarding their use of subcontractors and be prepared for lots of phone calls or messaging between you and the PM. Once the meet and greet are done, you will not receive any communication from your sales person despite your attempts.
After the Electrical Inspection, I contacted the PM to inquire about the Tile and Coping Phase and asked if I could backfill the 3 foot trenches since they were preventing my dogs from going outside without being endangered of falling in and injuring themselves. Good thing I did since this would need to be done as well creating an additional delay! Not all of the images in accordance with the timeline are listed but can be added if requested at a later date to be determined.

Anthony & Sylvan are nationally advertised. After sitting down and talking with them, their warranty pushed me towards them.

We could go out in the evening and be in the spa or the pool. Kids and grandkids could come over and we'll have picnics. It's a good focal point.
I had a good relationship with the designer. We sat down and he had as much fun designing the pool as I had working with him coming up with what I wanted. I wasn’t too impressed with the project guy but the warranty group, which I've used them a couple of times, has been fantastic. There were no questions asked.

We contracted the remodel of our pool by Anthony and Sylvan (A&S) on July 5, 2011. This remodel included plastering the interior of the pool and spa and this plaster work was under a three-year warranty but the work wasn’t completed until 2012. On June 30, 2013, Bill wrote an email to Hart ** at A&S stating that the “Plaster on the seat [of the spa] was extremely rough, not smooth like it used to be. So rough, we couldn’t even sit on it. Very disturbing. Is it ruined? How could something like this occur?”
Hart replies, “Not to worry, spa plaster will be fine. Most likely from a fluctuation in the PH. Happens in spas sometimes over the winter. Keep the PH on the low side (7.0-7.2) by adding muriatic acid to the spa water. Then brush the areas a few times. Repeat brushing will help smooth. Then after return PH to normal range (7.2-7.6).” My husband’s worked over 5 hours to remove the “scale” (rough surface) and followed all the instructions as given and got the plaster smooth enough so we could use the spa that year.
In July 2013, we received another email from Hart regarding the rough spa surface that said, “Don’t worry. More than likely this issue won’t happen again.” UNFORTUNATELY, THIS SPA SCENARIO HAS REPEATED ITSELF IN 2014, 2015, 2016, AND NOW AGAIN IN 2017. This is not working and now the plaster is so damaged in the spa that it needs to be re-plastered. Our pool was built approximately 25 years before our remodel with A&S and not once in that 25 years did the spa EVER have a rough surface.
Evan at A&S said it would cost between $4,000-5,000 to re-plaster the spa and suggested sandblasting the finish to make it smooth because it would be cheaper. We tried to explain that the spa is too damaged for any more erosion of the finish to be helpful as there are now spots where the concrete is showing through. And that re-plaster should be under warranty since we’ve had difficulty with it every year since the remodel. Sean from A&S warranty says scale is not covered. We tried to file a BBB complaint but were told we are outside of warranty and over 12 months old. PLEASE BE WARNED! THIS COMPANY WILL GIVE YOU THE RUNAROUND. File a BBB complaint in the first year your plaster job goes south if you are foolish enough to use this company.

Original Review: June 16, 2017
We originally contracted with them in the fall for our pool which was built by them 15 years ago... The shell started to crack and the coping and tiles were in need of repair. The sale person came out and showed us what was going to be done. In the fall they put in new coping which they had to come back in Spring to replace. They left my yard and garden a mess and broke two lights. In the Spring they came out and finished the inside of the pool and we had to have the district manager come out to make it right. We are now waiting and it's mid June for the Caulking between the patio and pool to be completed despite numerous calls and text to the company. One department doesnt talk to the other. This is the worst company I have ever dealt with. They make a great product but customer service is horrible.

A few months after losing my husband I bought my current home for my kids and I. I struggled with making the decision to take on such a huge investment and commitment myself as a newly widowed single Mom of 3. I wanted to give my kids a gift, something to help keep them busy, happy, something to bring friends and family over for fun times. So I contacted, set up multiple consultations, and in the end Anthony and Sylvan, and the project designer and manager had me sold. They were by no means the cheapest, but like they said I was paying for a life long investment, lifetime guarantee on concrete pool, having a project manager who is constantly on job site, great professionalism, executed on time project completion, and regular check ups after pool completion.
Not only did I fall for the sales pitch for a 20x40 concrete pool, but add-ons like tile, coping, and a diving board. What they did include was decking 3 foot on all 4 sides. I also had that upgraded to 10 foot of decking on shallow end and 6 ft on other 3 sides and 2 additional walkways. We signed, contacted and I put down my 1st payment of 3. The 1st week of my pool started on time, then the nightmare began. I was constantly on the phone texting, calling, emailing my designer and manager trying to find out why it's been weeks since any contractor or person has been to my house. I don't have the standard swim out in deep end, yet I never requested for any change in the swim out.
While the swim out was being formed I called my manager who said I had to hurry and decide while concrete guys were still there if I was going to pay and have them reframe and spray the standard swim out after the ground is excavated of course or if I'm going to leave it way it was. I was already way over expected budget so it stayed the same. Decking and sidewalk day finally arrived. The contractor said his orders were only for the original 3 ft that's included. I instantly showed my paperwork. I called manager. No answer. Contractor called him, got through instantly. I ended up writing a 8 thousand dollar check to get my sidewalks. The old ones I already had ripped out.
Since the pool was weeks behind schedule when the final step was scheduled to be completed I was to be in Florida, Disney family trip. I was promised, for the unfortunate inconveniences during construction, when I returned they would immediately send someone to show me how to operate the pool. I've never seen or heard from anyone since. I've had to pay other pool companies to open and close my pool. Anthony and Sylvan took what is a huge amount of money for me and then ignored, forgot, and left me with no knowledge on how to operate a single thing on what they sold me. I've never felt like just another "account number" before until this, especially when my designer knew my circumstances, why I was putting in a new pool.

Our retirement dream was to have an in-ground pool. We choose Anthony & Sylvan because of what we thought was a good reputation. We gave our first deposit on January 23rd, 2017 and today is June 12th, 2017 and we still do not have a completed pool. We were told the pool would be completed close to Memorial Day, now the 4th of July is around the corner and I am very doubtful we will be swimming in our dream.
Additionally, there has been a total lack of communication. We have made numerous phone calls, no one calls back within 24 hours like stated. You are lucky if you get a call within a week. We have also had the experience of work being scheduled for a specific day, but no one ever showed up. We called 4 different times that day, and no one even called us back. We have also had issues with the quality of the work, the gunite had to patched with hydraulic concrete because poor workmanship. Anthony & Sylvan has been disappointment.

I wanted a pool desperately the minute I moved to Las Vegas, Nevada, when it was 120 degrees outside.We got three pools put in by Anthony & Sylvan Pools for our multiple properties. They design pools any way you want. The first pool is 6 feet deep, 12 feet wide and 25 feet long. I customized architectural corners to it and fit pillars in each corner. And then they’d done the big steps where one can get out on the deep end but it's a very basic rectangular pool. The new pool we had done six months ago has a Jacuzzi and modern features. I like that my pool is solar heated and I can warm it up to any degrees I want. We keep it at bathtub water. I like that it’s not too deep. I don’t recommend people buying deep pools, especially when we usually never use the deep ends.
Anthony & Sylvan did a fine job designing our pool and picking out the color of the tiles. We let them make the decision on how to make it look. I had a wonderful project manager. However, there was a little crack in the pipe so he got the guys right out and got everything fixed. So far, we haven’t had a problem yet after that. I work from home so at any time of the day, I can walk out and get wet. Also, we keep it family-oriented. A lot of our family members have kids, and it’s more of an entertainment thing for the kids and the family. Overall, I had a very good experience.

We built the pool with Sylvan over 40 years ago. Then, we had the interior remodeled with them as well. We had a fine experience with the design consultant. Came out and measured everything, told us what to expect, how long it would take, what substance they use and when it would be done. The team that scheduled and coordinated our renovation was Spanish-speaking and I do not speak Spanish but if I had a question there was one gentleman I could speak with. This is the second summer now since it was done and it looks nice and is smooth. Nice clear water and we've had no problems with it.

Original Review: May 22, 2017
I purchased my home in 2003. After searching for a company to do the work, I decided on Anthony & Sylvan because they were publicly traded and they had no issues coming to my city (Inglewood, CA). I should have ran when the designer went to the wrong address. Subsequently, once we had a reschedule and I met the consultant, I was sold. He was very nice and knowledgeable. That was before things took a turn for the worse.
The job was promised to be complete in 8 to 12 weeks. It started on October 1, 2003 and was not finished until June 2004. Before you ask, they were paid in full by November 2003. I never got the plumbing completed to fill the pool. They ran the lines but that was it; there are no water spigots any place near the pool and 14 years later, I am still dragging the water hose to put water in the pool. I have had issue after issue with equipment. First, the salt cell stopped generating after 2 years, Secondly, the pump went out after four years. Then the spa stopped working. Between all of this, was the vacuum, which has been replaced at least 7 times. I have replaced the motherboard on the heater 3 times and for the last year and a half, I have had no heater. I was told all of these, with the exception of the salt cell, would last for years! Nothing made it to 5 years. By the way, I just had to drag the water hose up to the pool to add water.
I know compared to Shaq O'Neal and Koby Bryant spending 100's of thousands on their landscape and pools, my 40+ thousand was a mere drop in the bucket. That does not dispel the fact that I should have received good products, good service, and most of all, exactly what I paid for. This review has come several years late and I am only submitting it today because I am extremely upset that once again, I will have to shell out money for the heater if I wish to enjoy the spa. Many have inquired who built my pool and spa. My answer was and remains, "I will help you find someone else!"

We've been wanting a pool for 10 years and I heard about Anthony & Sylvan Pools through a website advertisement. Now, we have a free form concrete pool and I like that I got the nice pebbled type and the nonslip-resistant features of the pool. Although I never got to utilize it as much yet because of a new construction, I like the way it's located in my backyard and the way it gives a nice feel to it. The interactions we had with them during the process was real nice. They kept in touch with me on a regular basis and their project manager came by at least once a week to check on the progress and spoke about stuff. It was a pleasant experience.

We had built a new home three years ago and considered having a pool shortly after we built it. We backed out and then we just started talking about it again and went shopping. I had gone online doing some research because I was working at less expensive alternatives. Anthony & Sylvan were one of the companies that would advertise to do the in the ground type shell pool and I wanted to get information on that. Turned out that they didn't really do that in Texas so I ended up talking to a salesperson and letting them come out and give me a bid on a full- length ground pool, which is what we really wanted. I had a great experience with Hannah and I thought that she really listened to me. We got to design more and paid more attention to details of what I was looking for. Price is within the budget that we were comfortable with so we decided to go forward.
The pool is free form. We worked to design to make it fit our landscape because we're in the country so it's kind of a special look. But what I really like about it is one of those little sun shelves. Those are the little shallow parts that you step into. Then with the design, we extended a little sitting bench on the side of it because we have young grandchildren and we're older. We weren't looking for a lap pool, we just want to get in there and get refreshed. So to be able to just kind of sit in there on the bench, it just fits our lifestyle. If it's really sunshiny and warm, I go out there with a book, sit by the pool, relax and breathe. I just love the aesthetics of it.
I gave them some harsher feedback on the scheduling though. I had to qualify that we don't live within the metropolitan area. Everything works a little different. Our scheduling was falling where the crew would show up on Saturday morning. They put out their schedule on Friday night so that did not work well for me. I gave them feedback on that because it's a fairly automated system and it's fine. So we woke up on Saturday morning because we got a crew out there at 6 AM and they were just there without the notification. It really was more automated that they did and it just happened that way. The day that they started ours and the way it's scheduled out so that was kind of a glitch. But they took the feedback really well and they understood what I was talking about so they were great.

I have my pool built by Anthony and Sylvan Pools fall of 2016, it went smoothly to the end. But it left my drainage around the pool with water that stayed for days without any drainage capability, I have contacted the Project Manager right after the finish which is just a person without any responsibility or power and he responded that it will drain it by itself. Spring has come and I have tried several times to contact the salesperson (Mike **) and other persons in charge by emails and phone calls as well as the project manager for a month and nobody has responded back to me regarding the issues. I did mention to the salesperson about the drainage around my house at the time of signing the contract and he assured me that they will take good care of it. I am very unhappy about this company.

We've been looking for a pool for about three years. I went out to several of the pool builders for a bid. Anthony & Sylvan was not the lowest bid, but it was the one that I hoped could build the best pool and give me the deal for my dollars. I was not disappointed. Our pool is a non-heated, free-form pool. I like the water features and the way it was designed. It fits well because it doesn't overwhelm the backyard. There's little room for walkways and gardens. Now we have a nice and beautiful backyard and we will be able to maximize the use of it. I have a 15-year-old daughter who can't wait to have some pool parties.
One thing I really enjoyed within the process was that I wasn't pressured. I started the process about 11 months before I actually got the pool going because I had to weigh the information. The project manager and the scheduling team were easy to get hold of. We worked closely in getting subcontractors in and out. There was one instance where we had some problems with the plumbing and they were out there immediately and took care of it. The response was fast and things went as smoothly as possibly could be.

I had two schedulers and everyone worked well. They were on time and very knowledgeable. They took care of everything so I was pleased. Even though it's an ordeal they made it easier. Our pool is gorgeous! It's egg-shaped and it's eight feet deep on one end. We've got a little diving board. We got the one that has an ochre color. It's neat and it changes as the sun goes across the skies and to the different shades of blue in the pool. The tile work is just beautiful.

We've wanted a pool forever and made the decision to get one after we visited a friend in Houston who had a salt water pool. We checked several different pool people that had advertised and looked on the internet for pool people in our area. Anthony & Sylvan was the most responsive and seemed the most professional. We got a geometric pool from them and I like looking at it. It's beautiful. However, we had a problem with communications for scheduling. It took a while but once communication was working for us, our project manager realized that the technical people were not getting our information to us twice a week. Something was a glitch.

We've been looking to get a pool for our new house for the last two years. We had to wait until the ground settled at the new house. We had another house that had an inground pool and that pool was built by Maryland Pools. They had some issues so we didn't go with them. We had so many pool companies come out and we were so impressed with Anthony & Sylvan that I had a really good feeling. We also happened to see them online and then a friend of ours was doing a pool decking with them and then he told us about it. So, we had Anthony & Sylvan come out. They came in a little bit higher in price compared to the other pool companies, however, we do know that we get what we pay for.
They made a pool with Grecian edge for us. It's 22 by 45 feet and it has an eight-foot by 15-foot ledge, with the umbrella insert. It doesn't have any waterfall features but we got the heater and then we have about 2,000 square feet of paver decking. The best thing is the wall that was built and then we have a fence around it, too. So, we have plenty of room to lie out and plenty of room to swim, as well.
This experience with Anthony & Sylvan was top-notch. Every contractor that came over to do either the steel work, or inside the pool, or to dig the pool, was just phenomenal. They were professional, knowledgeable, and cleaned up after themselves. I'm actually going to call them 'cause I want to get some inflates on a diving board and we're going to do a diving rock. Any other work that I get done, it will be with Anthony & Sylvan.

I like the size of the pool as it is long enough to do some real exercises instead of just fun and soak type of pool.

We wanted our pool to be fiberglass and Anthony & Sylvan was one of the only ones who did that. We had a lovely freeform pool with a nice size entry. We're older and so it's a nice size pool for us to be able to handle. It also has a four-foot by three-foot ledge which is one of my favorite things. I have five grandchildren with a couple more on the way and so it has a nice platform that is shallow to get into the pool which is one reason why we bought it. We have a lot of company and so the pool is very much of a relationship spot for us.
Their staff were all very kind and we thoroughly enjoy all of them. The only negative that we ever had with the whole process was the timing of it all.

We worked with Don, who was our project manager, since the first meeting with the design consultant at our house prior to excavation. The experience was really good and Don was very communicative, had always responded to our emails or texted quickly or showed up at the site, and would always send the report of those site visits so we'd know what was going on. We were at a unique situation such that we were not at the location permanently yet, and so my wife wasn't able to be there during some of the construction. But again, we were kept in contact and they let us know where we were at in the process and able to keep our schedule so that we were there when we needed to be there.
Our pool is geometric with no spa and the design was able to adapt to the shape of the backyard. I like the overall look that we were able to achieve, especially the clean lines. It was pretty finished up in November so we haven't had a chance to get into it yet but we're looking forward to using it when the weather gets warmer and having the extra outdoor living space where we can cool off when the weather gets hot. Right now, we're enjoying the outdoor space more in the backyard and how it tied to the house.
