I searched locally for a pool design company to redesign my backyard and include my existing pool into a lush garden landscape but with no success. No one was able to recreate for me the vision that I had. I wanted something that was from the cookie cutter designs that seemed to be offered here locally. Came across Distinguished Pools in my search through google and multiple picture and despite their long distance reached out and eventually talked to Dan, who assured me that with the right information he could design the dreams that I had. When I forwarded him pictures of his blank slate on a Friday. I had in my possession exactly what I was looking for by Sunday afternoon. He even threw in a few ideas that I hadn't mentioned, such as the swim up bar and putting green, that i didn't know I wanted, until I did.
When the design was complete to my liking, Dan even took the time to contact through associates a wonderful pool builder from the other coast of FL that would be able to build my perfect backyard.
I can't say enough about this experience with Distinguished Pools and would recommend them to anyone who asks. And trust me, they will ask.

I was referred to Distinguished Pools by a friend who lives in San Diego county, after I had my pool renovated by another contractor since we leave in a different county. I was experiencing issues with the pool finish and did not know how to go about that and needed a professional advice. Dan Ramos the owner took the time to look at pictures I emailed him and consulted me how to proceed with the problem I am having and also over the phone. On top of that he refused to except any payment for his time. Dan is knowledgeable attentive and a real nice guy which is very hard to find these days in any business who has no benefit from you as a potential customer. I would highly recommend this pool contractor to anyone who is looking for someone who knows his trade and wants an experienced pool builder.
Curt5/5
First time I scheduled a service call two years ago it went perfectly. They even found an existing warranty to apply. (I take care of my pool and only need help when things break).
Just had an unfortunate series of events that resulted in some broken appointments (service rep was hospitalized) but after talking with Dan all is well. Dan (the owner) really does care and will make things right.

Dan and his team go above and beyond to create a relationship with there clients. If I ever have questions on the pool they are willing to call me back at all hours or even come to my house on a Friday evening to solve any issues! Solid service. Thank you Distinguished Pools!
