Inground pool and landscaping

20 years ago we made the decision to put in a pool in our backyard. We researched the many companies in our area and found classic pools and landscaping. We knew we found the right company from the first meeting. A no pressure review of ideas and straight forward pricing discussion started us on our path to a backyard oasis. 20 years later filled with wonderful memories of pool parties and lazy afternoons we are still enjoying our pool. Service has been minimal and when needed, Greg and the team are always quick to support. I would strongly recommend classic pools.

Pool, back and front yard landscape

Greg and his crew built us a gorgeous pool, stone patio, fire pit, retaining walls and gardens. They are fast, efficient, professional and fair. They work hard and have the utmost patience for questions, changes, additions, etc. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for large or smaller projects.

Hello Kelly,
Your stunning property overlooking Lake Ontario needed something spectacular to rival the view. Your choice of rectangular pool and square cut natural stone did just that! We appreciate your kind words.

Pool & Landscaping Installation

Greg and his crew installed our pool and landscaped our entire backyard this past spring - it was an amazing transformation. We had been thinking about installing a pool for a few years but new little of the process. We relied on Martine and Greg's expertise. They made it quite simple and straight forward for us to make decisions. They did what they said they would do (and then some) at a fair price and on time !!!!!!

Hello David and Cate,
Thanks for taking the time to write this review. You were dreaming of a pool for some time. It was worth the wait. Your backyard overlooking a green belt is the perfect setting for your dream pool with waterfall and lush plantings. Enjoy!

Pool & Landscaping

Martine & Greg were great. Obviously a complex and big decision for us and they took the time to walk through multiple options including the pros and cons of everything. We ended up installing a pool as well as planning and executing the landscaping. The quality of the workmanship was great. There was no question that they were doing the job right and not cutting corners or overlooking potential issues that could come up in the future. Their knowledge and experience was obvious and reassuring. There are always little hiccups with timing due to unforeseen issues but they were good to keep us informed and provide reasonable solutions. We had a blast in our first season with the pool with no issues at all. We have and will continue to recommend them. Thanks Martine and Greg!

underground pool construction & Landscaping

We had called a couple of pool companies and had decided that Classic Pools & Landscaping Inc. was the best choice for our family. They were very professional and very knowledgeable, which put my husband & I at ease since this was going to be our first pool. They were also the only pool company that was able to get to our backyard without having to go through multiple neighbors' yards. Martine also did a fantastic job with the drawing for the landscaping. Overall, Greg and his team did a phenomenal job. They also finished it on schedule & on budget, and there is no other company that we would trust building our next inground pool.

Pool and Backyard Renovation

We saw Classic Pools doing a pool renovation on our street during the fall of 2012 for neighbours. They were doing a superb job and our neighbours were thrilled not only with their work but the finished project. Classic Pools arrived at our home on April 1 of 2013 to begin the job. Two weeks later we had a brand new pool with new steps, diving rocks and a wonderful water fall. We also had extensive stone work done around the yard creating new garden terrace options that we didn't have before. The work was completed on time and on budget. I've never see a crew of guys work so hard from the time of arrival early in the morning until late in the afternoon. They were all friendly and courteous. They were here everyday and all day. Will use them again soon for a front of house/driveway project before the snow flies.
I highly recommend Greg and his crew for your project.

Hello Ralph & Trish,
Thank you for your great review! Your backyard was lovely to begin with. Some of the slopes made the space unusable so the redesign and addition of the retaining walls added beauty and function. I think Buddy likes it too!
Cheers, Greg & the crew.

Backyard Pool Renovation

We purchased a home a few years ago which had a 30+ year old pool in need of serious attention. We interviewed a number of possible pool & landscape contractors and Classic Pools & Landscaping was far and away the best option for us. To begin with Greg is extremely courteous and helpful. A real pleasure to work with. He arrived for our first meeting promptly and provided us a detailed and competitive quote right on scene. Greg took the time to explain in detail the scope of work and he was the only contractor to provide us with design tips and suggestions, a number of which were incorporated into the project. Once work began the job went very smoothly. The entire Classic Pools team were friendly, efficient and tidy from start to finish. When we saw the final product we were thrilled and now that we've had a year to enjoy the pool we are even more pleased with the result. Finally, we want to thank Greg for taking the time to address our follow up questions regarding the operation and care of our new pool. In fact, Greg was even kind enough to come out to our house months after the reno was completed in order to show us how to open the pool for the season. We can't say enough about Greg and the Classic Pools & Landscaping team. We highly recommend them.

Pool installation and landscaping

We contracted with Classic Pools and Landscaping to build our pool and do the landscaping around it. We were extremely happy with the service they provided. They made recommendations as to the shape of the pool and stonework surrounding it that were much better than what we had originally planned to do. They suggested we include a waterfall feature that we love.

The work was done quickly and every night they tidied up the area. The people doing the construction were polite and professional at all times. We have recommended Classic Pools to a number of our friends that are looking for either a pool or landscaping work to be done and they have all been satisfied as well.

We were so happy with the work that they did in our backyard, that we had them back the next year to landscape around the front of the house. I would not hesitate to recommend this company.

Pool

We researched a lot of pool companies before deciding on Classic Pools. We have never regretted our decision once. Greg and his crew showed up every day from start to finish, and completed the job on time and on budget. Greg took the time to answer all our questions. He even came over a few weeks after the job was all done to make sure everything was ok! We would not hesitate to recommend Classic Pools. With this kind of investment we wanted to make the right choice, and I am happy to say we did!
