Back in 2004, we built a house and we wanted to hire Anthony & Sylvan to do a pool. We started the contractual process but then had to stop it because we ended up relocating. So when we came back to Pennsylvania and we were able to finally get a pool, we wanted to go back to them because the experience the first time was fantastic. We got a free-form pool with a spa. I love the shape of it. In fact, we designed the shape with them. We like the LED lighting and we love the saltwater. It is phenomenal. We would not do it any other way. It's beautiful and a great pool to have. We did a darker colored plaster, so it looks phenomenal in the sunlight. And then we did the decking, so we poured stamped concrete decking around it.

After we signed the contract and we got to the construction point, Anthony & Sylvan did all the legwork for us. They took care of the permitting process and pool design, and once we approved everything, they submitted it to the township for approval. When it's time to start doing the construction, we dealt with one specific project manager the whole way and he was phenomenal. Even if we didn't use Anthony & Sylvan for the decking, he took time out on a Saturday to come out and make sure that we tied it properly into the coping etc.

We have an eight-year-old son and I grew up with a concrete pool when I was a child, so we're looking forward to opening up and having a pool season this year. I love the spa feature that we built into the pool. Previously, we were going to build it separate of the pool but through the recommendation of Anthony & Sylvan which they said, for the extra cost to build it outside of the pool and have separate plumbing, most people once they do that they don't use it as much as they thought and they end up wasting money. So they were very good along the whole process.
