Over the years Optima has developed many projects with California Pools. We have always received the highest quality workmanship and our pools have been constructed on time and on budget 100% of the time. Additionally, after construction, the customer support and service we have received has consistently been outstanding.

California Pools are an excellent pool builder! We have used them three times because they build gorgeous pools and backyards since 1996! They are very talented, efficient and they stand behind their very high end quality workmanship!
- Colleen B.
They were always there for our questions and keeping us posted as to the start of the various stages of pool construction. We have a beautiful, refreshing and relaxing pool. The pool exceeds our expectations. We love the customer support we received from California Pools.
- Deanna N.
All of you at Cal Pools have been exceptionally helpful in the construction and maintenance of this pool project. We cannot thank you and Mark Helmer enough. We would be happy to work with You again.

California Pools & Landscape is by far the best pool company in the valley. Their customer service is awesome the correspondence is great, and the workmanship Unbeatable. Please do not waste your time with any other company or build your own pool.
- Evita L.
We had an amazing pool building experience with California Pools, from start to finish. Our project was completed in about 12 weeks and we couldn’t be happier. I’d definitely recommend California Pools to anyone!
- Sandy L.
Fantastic staff and company. One big difference with California Pools and Landscape – when we were in the design phase and picking the company, they listened. They did not oversell us. Installation was great. Nothing but 5 stars for the staff and the company.
- Deb S.
What I really appreciated was continuing to work with us going above and beyond well after the last check cleared to make sure we were happy. As a business owner, I know the best compliment you can get is a referral so I will be sure to refer anyone to California Pools.
- Jay R.
They are the most communicative, efficient and professional company we have dealt with since moving into our new home. I highly recommend California Pools to anyone looking to build a pool. Take it from my hours and hours of research and meeting with different pool companies in the area – California Pools not only has competitive prices but also the best staff around!
- Amy L.
Considering I don’t know anything about pools, they were very patient and willing to teach me what was involved, not just sell me the best pool pump! The one thing I liked most is that they have their own landscape division. Good people, good service. I’d recommend these guys to anyone.
- Elias A.
