Poolmaster Above and Beyond!

Bought a house in the Bridle Path and used the the existing pool company ( Bonavista) as they installed the pool here! Used them for a year and was not happy with their service very unprofessional! Started with them this year as the pool is quite complex but again not happy with them, terrible service, unprofessional crew, management hell to deal with!
Called Poolmaster and what a difference! Professional, helpful, and pleasant to deal with! Willing to accommodate our requests without hesitation! I highly recommend them!

Pool Heater

Poolmaster installed a new pool heater for us. The job was done professionally and our property was well maintained. We are very happy with their service and expertise. Poolmaster is very dependable. It doesn't matter when we contact them we hear back and they are willing to help asap. That is so appreciated. We highly recommend them ! Best Gayle

Exceptional service

When my saltwater chlorination system started showing signs of failure, I called Poolmaster and was put in touch with Mark, who was most helpful. First, he stayed on the phone with me and led me step-by-step through a sequence of diagnostic steps. When he suspected a problem with a particular component, he advised me on how I could service it myself (I wanted to learn how), and gave me a detailed list of steps to follow. He even emailed me with some reference material for future use.

I appreciate Mark's knowledge, willingness to help and patience, and I enjoyed learning a few things from him!

Softtub

I've been going to Pool Master for years for softub repair and supplies. They have great customers service and a lot of accessories and supplies to choose from. The owner was generous when he gave me a patch for the outside of my softub for no charge. I would definitely recommend Pool Master!f

Instal pool pump and new timer. On-going in-store purchase of pool chemicals and pool equipment.

The staff at Poolmaster Canada Inc. provided excellent advice and service (as usual) recently when I needed to replace my original pool pump and had a pump timer installed at the same time. I really appreciated the quality and great timing for completing the job. Over the many years that I have been making Poolmaster my “go to” source for all of my pool and spa needs, I have especially appreciated the professionalism and honesty of Tallon and his staff and the fact that they will not recommend unnecessary work. I also always find the chemicals and equipment that I need in their well stocked show room in North York (near Leslie and York Mills) which is a short drive from my home.

Polaris Repair/Help

Mark at Poolmaster Leslie recently fixed my 5 year old creepy crawler. He called before he did the work to explain that a key part was faulty and should be replaced. I approved the repair. Then he texted a couple days later to make sure it was working ok. It was running too fast, he talked me through what to do to slow it down, it worked. Then he texted again to make sure the adjustment worked. Service above and beyond. Thank you Mark

Pool

I purchased a Pentair Variable Speed Pump from Poolmaster three years ago . We recently experienced some technical problems with the product but Poolmaster replaced it even though there was only a two year warranty on It.
Just in case you are looking to get your pool water tested , I found this place to be the best in Toronto . A very professional staff that will ensure that you and your family will enjoy your pool all summer .
Thank you for the great service .

Green pool help!!!

After finding poolmaster online I went to the store and showed a picture of my pool to Mark. He coached me on the proper products for my saltwater pool and even FaceTimed with when I was at home to take a look at my system to see why my pool was turning green. He solved the issue in 1 Day and the other company I’ve been using has been 3 weeks without figuring it out. Thanks Mark
I super appreciate your knowledge and helpfulness!

Hi Rob, FaceTime is a beautiful thing. Being able to service a pool even remotely is a very strong tool. Glad we were able to solve the issues so quickly/efficiently. Mark is a big help!

Problems are ignored

I used Poolmaster to open, close and maintain my pool. When it came to closing the pool, I had to call several times because the cover kept slipping into the pool as they had not ensured that all the water bags had been filled and placed correctly. While they did come back once to attempt to fix the problem, it was not resolved. My second, third and fourth calls were ignored leaving me with a pool cover that was not functional. Poolmaster understands that businesses need to be paid, but I found the reciprocal relationship between customer and business on their terms. I have been most disappointed by their customer service and will not use them again.

Thank you for your review and our apologies for the frustration you experienced.

The pool cover slipped into the pool one time after closing due to broken waterbags. Initially the bags were filled in place properly and whether it had been weather or wild animals (ie. raccoons) some bags were damaged allowing water to leak out, resulting in the cover shifting.

Poolmaster technicians returned to your property to replace those broken waterbags (On the invoice you were billed for replacement bags and not the labour). Unfortunately, we were still in the middle of pool closings and were unable to return the same day you called, but we did fit you into a pre-existing schedule and returned within a couple of days.

Technicians had to come to your property two times for that requested visit because the water had been turned off in your backyard. They returned next day to replace the bags after you turn the water back on. The technician also went over your entire pool and equipment pad to ensure the pool was properly winterized, as per your request.

You contacted Poolmaster for a second time indicating three more bags were to be replaced. This was done within one day of your request. Again, you were never charge for any labour.

Once everything was completed, you disputed your bill requesting a full refund. We understood your frustrations with the broken waterbags but did not find it fair or justifiable to refund you for a pool closing service which was done properly. Instead, Poolmaster issued a refund for the replacement waterbags.

We are sorry you were disappointed in our services, and hope you find luck with your next pool company.
