We've renovated thousands of pools for people. Some were
pools that we originally built and others were first built by other pool builders.
Each of their reasons for renovating their pool was as unique as they are. Many
of them have shared their experiences with us, and we hope their stories will
inspire you to make your pool the pool of your most recent
dreams for your own reasons.
Ken’s Pride Once Again “Our pool was more of an embarrassment than a
feature. I finally got tired of making excuses and called Anthony & Sylvan
to fix it. Not only did I get the pool resurfaced, I changed out the tile and
the deck. Once again, the pool area is brand new. “

Third Owner to the Rescue “We were the third owners of our home, and
the pool had obviously been neglected. We thought it would be a nightmare, but
Anthony & Sylvan gave us our options and we learned that all we had to do
was have the deck repaired and replace the tiles. It was all done in less than
two weeks, and you can’t even tell that it wasn’t like this from the
beginning.”

The Holman’s Same Different Pool “My wife and I have owned our home for 20
years. It used to be fun to hang out by the pool with our friends. But it was
getting boring. And the pool was showing signs of age. We called several companies,
and they were just as boring as our pool. But then our neighbor, who used Anthony
& Sylvan to refinish his pool, suggested we give you a call. It was great!
Your design consultant used his computer program to show us exactly how different
our pool area could be. Finally, a company that had the vision to see beyond just
resurfacing the pool and repainting the deck. So thanks! Now we’re repainting
the house to look as good as the pool!”

The Hacketts Stayed Put “We were told that if we wanted new features
for our pool, it might be easier to buy a house with the pool the way we wanted
it. But Steve and I love our home, the location, and our neighborhood. So we
called Anthony & Sylvan to find out just what our options were.
It was amazing! For less than we thought, we added a spa,
waterfall, new decking and tile, and fiber optics. You can’t even recognize
the pool area. It looks totally different. So we are staying right here.
We’d especially like to thank our construction supervisor,
who kept us ‘in the loop’ during the entire process.”

Dr. Reid’s Test of Time “We had renovated our pool before. But it wasn’t
a year before the tile started to pull away from the wall and cracks appeared
in the Kool deck again. If I could tell anyone who is about to redo their pool,
I’d say “Go with Anthony & Sylvan.” Save yourself time
and aggravation, and get your pool done right the first time. I waited three
years to send this letter, and the tile and deck look as if you just finished
the job. Thanks again.”

The Rieckmann’s Garden of Eden “Adding the spa, planter walls with waterfalls
was such a great idea. When you are in the pool or spa it’s like being
in a tropical garden! Who knew that you could get the work done in just a few
weeks? It was finished by the time we moved in. Thanks!”

Jim and Mary Anne’s Extra Free Time “We had actually joked about filling in the
pool with concrete and putting up a basketball hoop! We don’t get a lot
of sun on the pool, so maintenance was a little more time consuming and the pool
was always chilly, even in July. Thankfully, you helped us understand that with
just some new pool equipment we would need so much less maintenance. And the pool
heater gives us just the bump in temperature we need to make the pool usable for
many more months than before.”
J.C. - Westchester, PA
Harry’s Extra Space “Expanding the pool deck was a great idea.
It was impossible to get the lounge chairs on the far side where the sun lasted
the longest. Now it looks as if we have twice the area of pool deck, and we only
added four feet! Once again, great idea!"
