My parents have had Anthony & Sylvan pools before. I felt most comfortable with them that they are the most professional and have been doing this so long. When dealing with a pool, my sister had a company that ran out of business and she had problems so I wanted to go with what was the most reliable. Anthony & Sylvan was right on top of everything. I live in Fairfax County so it was a bear to get it through zoning and the homeowner's association. But the minute we got those done, they just whipped through and it was amazing how fast they got the pool done.

My pool is rectangular with a spa and a diving board which I both love. I wanted to swim laps and I had little grandchildren around, so I had a remote built into it. The design around it is really beautiful. I love to swim but unfortunately they finished it right at the end of the year last year, so I didn't use it much. I can't wait till the spring.
