Horrible customer service! They charge you for products and services they did not do or use! The manager or owner Chris is rude and only cares about overcharging you. He will basically tell you that you still have to pay even though you have proof that his staff did not use all the products they charged you for. Had to buy a part over the summer and they charge 4 times more than what it really costs. They nickel and dime you for everything. Not worth it!

Do not use Buckeye Pools. Terrible customer service! They lie about what kind of service they do to your pool. Charge you extra for things they didn't even use. Charge extra for service they didn't even do! The manager or owner Chris is very rude and basically scams you to pay more money. I don't mind paying if they actually do what they are suppose to do and use products that they charge you for.

POOL IT SELF IS A NICE PURCHASE. BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE, AND BE READY TO SPEND A LOT MORE $$$ ONCE THINGS START GOING WRONG WITH YOUR BUCKYE POOL. BUCKYE CHARGES ALL MOST DOUBLE TO REPLACE LIGHTS, PAINTING IS ALMOST DOUBLE ONCE PAINT HAS WORE FROM THE CONCRETE. I SUGGEST SHOPPING ELSE WHERE FOR PARTS AND MAINTENANCE IF NEEDED ON YOUR POOL.

We schedule a year in advance for opening and closing and have had good service. This year our guy did a fantastic job. The technicians are always good but this guy was a pro. We have the diamond brite finish and it failed in the beginning so they came out and removed the finish and redid the entire pool for free. They do stand by their pools

Critical: Quality Pool has cracks in concrete walls and floor. Constant repair on buckeye pool poor built pools. A huge nightmare and very costly at that as well

I want to say THANK YOU. My pool motor went out when Buckeye was opening my pool and had to order the part, I was planning a Gender Reveal party for my daughter that weekend when this unexpected pool problem happened and I didn't want to have an ugly green pool as the backdrop for the party. Buckeye got the part in and even on a rainy day they squeezed me in and got it fixed. It may seem like a small thing but for us it was HUGE. Thank you for the quick responsiveness and knowing how important this was to us, the personal touch means everything.
