"Sam from Pool Forensics did a fantastic job getting our pool back in top shape! He expertly repaired our water feature and re-installed a salt cell system flawlessly. Beyond his technical skills, Sam is incredibly courteous, polite, and respectful of our property. It’s hard to find this level of professionalism and genuine customer service anymore. Highly recommend him for any pool diagnostics or repairs!"

Sam, Let me thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you did for my wife and I. You are truly a Godsend in our time of need and it is so refreshing to come across a professional in these days and times that is Honest, Genuine, with customer service and bedside manner that is impeccable.
You were lightning fast in returning our request for help, You came out on a holiday and didn't take advantage to find another way to squeeze 500 bucks out of us. Your price is without even price matching the best we have seen. We love that you wanted to earn our business and not just take our money.
Thank you for going the mile to explore all troubleshooting options and to make certain that the job was done right the first time. It has been a pleasure working with you today.
This is not the end however; because you are not only a hired professional but also our friend. We are truly thankful for you crossing paths with our lives, and please know that you will be forever in our prayer life going forward.
I cannot express enough how much we will recommend you to others every chance we get. Thank you for being a great soul !!
