What recent reviews say

Families and homeowners consistently report smooth, well-managed pool builds that stay on schedule. Ely and crew handle permitting, walk clients through material choices, and remain accessible throughout projects. One scheduling mishap soured an initial contact, but the company apologized privately.

A&E Pools handles everything from new construction to renovation and maintenance in-house: gunite resurfacing, paver work, cages, decking, spas, and landscape integration. Pricing is described as fair and competitive; staff are honest about budget options. Quality finishes and thoughtful design choices earn repeat customers and neighborhood referrals.

Recent projects range from under 2 months to around 3 months (September to November) for new builds with landscaping.

Glenn and his team deliver complete pool projects from permits through landscaping, with the owner personally overseeing each stage and staying on-site during key milestones. Most jobs wrap in five to six weeks, and customers value his directness, absence of sales pressure, and willingness to handle everything from electrical to sod replacement. One reviewer encountered Glenn arriving three hours late for an estimate without warning or apology, though this appears isolated against an otherwise consistent record. The company's strength lies in full-service execution and the owner's hands-on presence rather than flashy features. They offer financing and free pool maintenance for the first month. Service areas include Naples, Fort Myers, and Southwest Florida generally.

Jackson Pools delivers finished pools that meet or exceed design expectations, with most customers praising named project managers like Cody and Dane for keeping them informed at every stage. The team answers questions after hours and weekends, treats neighbors with respect during construction, and sends staff like Chuck for follow-up maintenance without delay. However, two reviews flagged startup issues and discoloration within a year, with one customer reporting the company became unresponsive when warranty questions arose; another cited a full pool resurfacing needed months into ownership, suggesting inconsistency in either installation protocol or follow-through on problem resolution. Named technicians like Reid, Kermit, Mike Bell, and Chuck are cited for specific strengths: Reid for honest design without upsell, Kermit for keeping clients informed through the full build, and Chuck for detailed equipment training and rapid service calls. Most builds take around 90 days. The company lists 40 years in business, holds CPC022504 license, and is affiliated with the National Spa and Pool Institute and Association of Pool and Spa Professionals, serving Naples, Southwest Florida, Sarasota, and St. Petersburg.

Jonathan Kaplan and his team turn troubled pools into problem-free ones. Years-long customers report zero green pools since signing on, fast repairs even on weekends, and fees that feel honest compared to competitors who failed them. Weekly visits are punctual and detailed; new equipment installations happen within days; inspections for home sales include a written report same-day. The business has expanded with his son joining weekly maintenance, and long-term clients say staff treat them like family while delivering professional results.
