API

If you are looking for pool installation or repair this is the place to go, without question. Mark and Mark are a great father and son team and are the most professional and politest contractors I have ever worked with. They will answer any question you might ask, and if you call they will get back to you quickly. Our fiberglass pool broke during installation and after 15 years the installers "fix" began to fail. I contacted API and they came out that day and buy the next day I had a contract with a very fair price. They worked on my pool whenever they said they would be there so the repair was fast and efficient. Both Marks are very polite and very courteous and knowledgeable. I took their suggestions and the pool looks better then it ever has. I have received many compliments on it since it was done. The one thing they recommended that I was hesitant on was they suggested painting the pool black. I wasn't so sure but my wife loved the idea. Greatest decision we made, all on their recommendation. When the weather finally warmed up the sun with the back keeps the pool warm all the time. The lowest temperature it has been at since it has been swimming weather is 82 and has gotten as high as 90. Like I said these two are experts and no exactly what to recommend. If you are in need of a pool repair, pool installation or Hot Tub work, these are the people to call. If you don't it will be the biggest mistake you can make. Mark has my phone number and any time you would like a recommendation feel free to call him for it and I will be happy to give you answers/opinions. Thank you Mark and Mark it was a pleasure doing business with you and dad can rest assured that when he wants out of the business it will be in great hands with his son, and I can assure you the quality will not go down one bit.

The pool at our recently purchased house had developed a crack and two severe deformations over the winter. I checked with our local pool company who said it looked like a total loss, we were devastated. I started to search how to repair the pool on our own, just to give it a try since I had nothing to lose. I saw API's YouTube videos and on a whim sent them an email. They called me back within the hour to talk about the issue and from there we formulated a repair plan. I've never worked with fiberglass, a grinder and barely used epoxy before. However they were incredibly responsive, instructive and some of the most lovely people I have ever met to date. They know their craft so well, they can teach a person with zero experience how to fix the issue. The products they use are amazing and you can see immediately they are well above anything I could have bought locally. The project was not for the faint of heart, it is tough work and I hope to never have to do it again, but it is also by far the most rewarding DIY I have ever done. Our pool is now in working order again, raised from the dead and looking better than new. I couldn't have done it without them. They responded to my endless questions quickly and with constant positivity and reassurance that I could do it. They are an amazing company with absolutely amazing people. I have no doubt either, if you have the ability to get them to work on the pool personally, they will fix any issue and have the pool looking better than is has ever been before. I cannot recommend them enough, nor thank them enough!

I purchased a home that had a fiberglass pool that was installed with the previous owner. We’ve now owned the house for 3 years and it has developed 3 different cracks. With the first 2 cracks, the company that originally installed the pool patched the cracks. However, it was simply a patch job. They did not look to see what was actually causing the crack and to even get them to come look at the issue, it was like pulling teeth. It got to the point where I called every day until they came out. Once the pool developed the 3rd crack, the original installer was unresponsive. They were “out of the office” or would not return any phone calls. I tried calling every pool company in my area and the best option I was given was to rip out the pool and start over. To say I was in a nightmare is an understatement. Thank god I came across the API videos on YouTube. I sent a message to API thinking nothing would come of it, but I got an immediate response, and Mark was the first person to tell me that he could fix the problem. We agreed on a price, and he was in SC two weeks later fixing a problem that I was told couldn’t be fixed. Before I met Mark and his son, I was ready to fill the pool in and be done with it. I couldn’t be more pleased with the work and professionalism of Mark and his son, and I can’t wait to actually enjoy my pool. If you have a fiberglass pool issue, I couldn’t recommend API more. Thank you Mark and Mark Jr.! I can sleep better knowing I basically have a brand new pool that is now structurally sound.

I had a significant crack and leak in my fiberglass pool that no local pool company knew how to deal with, other than recommendations to replace the entire pool. I found API after an online search led me to their YouTube videos showing the process. Pretty clear they are one of the few (if only) companies around that knows how to deal with this problem, or is willing to. The repair was needed urgently given pending house sale (anticipated to be contingent upon repair of pool). I spoke with Mark who took the details and had me send pictures of the pool. He sent an estimate with options (well under replacing the pool!) and did what he could to squeeze us in given the need to resolve the issue quickly. They drove in with all of their equipment and less than a week later had repaired the crack, leveled the pool, and grinded and repainted the pool to look like new! They covered the entire pool with a giant igloo-like enclosure that allowed them to work through some nasty rain and storms without delaying the project. Very impressive. This is a top-notch family run business. Mark clearly knows his stuff and is honest and up-front about the scope of work and cost to get the job completed. Also, refunded a significant portion of the estimate once it was clear the fix would not have to be as complex as originally anticipated. I would urge anyone with issues around fiberglass pools to call API. I certainly would again. The new owners are going to love this essentially brand new pool!

Had our pool built in 2015. It's a typical in ground gunite pool. Within 4 months of completion pool started to leak. Couldn't see any obvious reasons why, and worked with builder to solve problem over 2 years. Still couldn't determine source of leak (even had 4 independent PVC plumbing leak test paid for by builder). Builder finally asked me if I would be willing to try a "fiberglass liner" in the pool. At first the wife said heck no, and "we want what we paid for". However I was tired of dealing with the entire situation. So, I said ok after he told me about the details. Fast forward 3 weeks later. Mark and his crew came down from Michigan to Texas. It took them nearly 1 full week to in-lay the fiberglass and coat it (I'm sure there are technical terms). Fast forward again, the pool functions great and in the past 3 years have not had 1 single issue. It gets even better. I hardly use any chemicals now, we no longer have "green algae" issues, the bottom is smooth (no bikini snags for wife) and there so less maintenance. For anyone want to re-do the pebble liner, or fix a leak, etc., or simply wants a nice smooth feel, this is the way to go. Mark is awesome, always friendly and easy to work with. With the greatest appreciation, a very satisfied customer in Texas.
