"This guy is a fraud. He has about 5 reviews two of them were from his son and wife who gave him a score of 5/5 without any comments. He came and installed two main drains and caused damage to the piping by the equipment. Folded the winter cover wrong and was told to repair the damage he caused and to redo the cover. He promised he will after he got the money and ran away. I called more than 20 times, left voice and text messages and he won't care to respond. After 2 months he said he won't day any more needed repairs because he thinks I won't pay him which is a lie. I never negotiated his price and paid him immediately without delay."

"Unreliable and unresponsive. After two months of empty promises, unanswered phone calls and cheap excuses we've decided to cancel our install and get our deposit back. This guy does not know how to run a business. "

The Dolphins Pool has been in business since 2005; but, our owner, William Reyes, has been building and servicing pools for more than 6 years. We specialize in in-ground pool installation and service.

"I needed someone to close my pool as an injury prevented me from doing the job myself. William (company owner) responded within 10 minutes of me requesting the service on Angi. We chatted about the pool, I sent him a couple pics of the pool and mechanicals. He provided a very fair quote right away. Based on his timeliness and professionalism, we scheduled the job. William and his crew arrived on time the next day and got right to work. Efficient, professional, and friendly. He knocked on the door to ask any questions he had during the closing. Start to finish, he and his crew had the pool drained, lines cleared, plumbing winterized and covers in place - all in about 90 minutes. Would have taken me all day! Responsive, professional, fairly priced, courteous - You can't ask for anything more from this service provider. BIG thumbs up for The Dolphins Pool Service!!!"

"The technician that worked on our above ground pool, I believe her name is AJ, is wonderful and very knowledgeable. She thoroughly inspected all of our equipment and managed to get our pool filtration system running better than it has in years (we tried several other pool services before JIT). When we eventually needed a replacement pump, she did a wonderful job installing the new one and we have had no problems since!"

"The absolute worst! These guys "opened" my pool. PJ, the owner and an employee were on site. I had to spend two hours helping them because they couldn't figure out how to attach the railings and diving board. They didn't vacuum! They didn't even attempt to balance the chemistry. They didn't turn on the heater, unless you count pressing the on button. It was not working, and needed repairs which I wound up doing myself, they didn't bother to check it, at all. Worst of all, they failed to tighten the bolts on the diving board, and as a result one of my kid's friends got injured when the board went sideways. Stay away. Literally, anyone else is a better choice."

FAQs for pool construction and installation projects in Chicago, IL

Under ideal conditions, professional excavators complete pool excavation in four to eight hours. Attempting to do the work yourself can increase costs due to equipment rental fees, potential delays, and risks like utility damage. Hiring professionals ensures a secure and efficient process that complies with regulations and sets the stage for a successful pool installation.

Excavating a pool typically involves removing between 64 and 178 cubic yards of dirt, depending on the pool's size, depth, and shape. Unconventional shapes may require removing additional soil around the structure as well as excavating the hole where the pool will be. Work with your swimming pool builder to get an estimate for how much dirt removal your pool will need based on your specific situation.
