Testimonials

When I saw an award winning pool project that Solda Pools had created, I knew that we had to talk with them about building our back yard pool. Right from our initial visit with Frank, he made us feel comfortable with the process and had great ideas on how to accomplish what we were looking for. Frank and Matt took the necessary time with us to go over all of the plans, layouts and options to let us know exactly what we were in for.

We were very excited to get the project going and thrilled when the Solda crew came in weeks ahead of schedule to start. With each step, we saw the Solda team’s commitment to quality and excellent craftsmanship. Right from the preparation of the job site to the cleaning up at the end of the day, we knew that these guys were the professionals. It was easy to see that things were going to turn out beautifully. The Solda crew did a great job of keeping us informed as to what was happening and we could tell that these guys were the best and knew exactly what they were doing. They adjusted their crews to meet our family’s needs and we were able to enjoy our new pool for almost the entire season. The results were beautiful.

If you have a busy schedule and want the best to take care of it all, I would highly recommend Solda Pools.

Dear Frank, Peter and John (and the entire Solda team),

With Spring time weather upon us, and the onset of what we hope to be a very HOT summer, our pool is finally completed. We wanted to now take this opportunity to thank you and your entire team.

Making the decision to install a pool and recreate our backyard was one that we had been toying with for a long time. Last summer it all came to fruition. Before we knew it, we were on the phone with you and starting the process of selecting and installing our beautiful new pool and deck. I was amazed and shocked at how quickly it all happened. However, it speaks to the professionalism and reputation that Solda Pools has.

We were very pleased and so impressed at how everyone who played a part in the design, selection of materials, construction and installation worked together with us to create an incredible backyard oasis for our family. Thank you for making this process an enjoyable one and for being a wonderful team to work with.

We had the pleasure of working with Solda Pools to create our backyard oasis. From the initial meeting with Frank Solda we knew we were dealing with the most knowledgeable professionals in the business. Frank took the time to carefully go through all of our options and help us design the backyard of our dreams. We worked closely with Andrew Solda who always took the time to respond to all of our questions and concerns in a very prompt manner. Solda is a family run business and their pride in their work is amazing. They installed a concrete pool for us with a water feature as well as a built-in hot tub which turned out beautifully. In addition, they transformed our old shed into a new structure, built another shade structure with an outdoor fireplace, and a complete outdoor kitchen. All the stone work and decking was also put in by their crew. Given the scope of this large project, it’s hard to believe there were no issues along the way and that everything ran as smoothly as it did. We truly have been thrilled with the customer service from their entire team and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to deal with an exceptional company.

From the time we first met with Solda until the project was completed, Solda was professional and true to their word on everything. They offer the highest quality construction and design concepts, with attention to every little detail. Solda has great follow up and timely service so everything is always working perfectly. Our pool is low maintenance and we enjoy it year-round, regardless of the weather. We would not hesitate to recommend Solda Pools for any project.

I’m just letting you know that your guys are truly a great company and worth every penny (cause you’re not cheap and now I know why). From the 1st meeting with Frank I felt I was in good hands with Solda and with every obstacle you guys proved you guys are the best period!! The courtesy you provided my neighbours was legendary and your guys rose to every occasion. Christian and Sherville’s crew went above and beyond to deal with them and always kept it professional. Thanks again

Your company is exceptionally professional and will be strongly recommended. Frank is amazing….he does what he says….. And this is priceless……thanks again for being so reliable and professional. Thanks

We just want to express our gratitude to all the Solda team for a job well done. Every member of your team was courteous and polite and dedicated to delivering the best product possible. When challenges arose, as they always do, a solution was discussed with us so we were always kept in the loop. And, we were obviously thrilled our project was completed ahead of time and looks just beautiful (can’t wait to get to the painting and planting this spring).

Our forty year old pool badly needed renovating and upgrading. SOLDA Pools had built a new pool for our daughter a few years ago. Since she found SOLDA easy to work with, she strongly advised us to ask SOLDA to repair and renovate our pool.

Frank Solda came and inspected our pool. After we told him what we wanted to accomplish, he made suggestions and gave us an anticipated cost and schedule. We were happy that the work could be started and completed in the fall.

Our renovation and construction was a major job. We wanted the pool to retain its original appearance, which required some creative work by SOLDA in repairing some coping pieces which are no longer available and considerable time examining multiple samples of marbelite to decide on the exact amount of crystals to be added. Nick Solda spent much time and return visits with Mimi to get this just right. Nick provided us with three samples of the color for the marbelite, a service we greatly appreciated. THANK YOU NICK!!!

After finishing the work on the pool, SOLDA built us a much needed pool house which is an added attraction to our backyard. SOLDA completed our work on schedule and on budget. When the pool renovation was completed, everything looked just as we wanted.

We found SOLDA very easy to work with…we thank NICK AND FRANK and SOLDA for the fine attention to achieve what we wanted.

To whom it may concern.

My name is Stephen Kelly. I am the current President and owner of Stephen Kelly & Associates Inc. a large technology consulting company in the GTA.

My wife & I were looking to install a nice in ground pool, in ground spa hot tub and build out a couple of cabana’s along with cement stamped colored concrete deck and patio in the backyard in our new home. We are both very detailed oriented and spent two months researching and speaking to pool builders asking many questions. What we found was everyone was telling us the same thing including even Pioneer pools that Solda Pools is the very best. Even my brother who has been in the pool business 15 years agreed Solda Pools are the very best thus we engage Solda Pools directly with further questions and asked to meet with them.

Phase One:

Frank Solda came out to our home and spent many hours with us to gain insight in to what we were looking for and was very insightful in helping us with great ideas at no cost to us. Frank then came back to our home with a detailed draft of architecture designs, locations of the pool, hot tub and cabana’s, decking and really took his time explaining everything to us but also said we can make any changes we want – anytime – even on the fly when the build phase commences. Frank then had a team come up and draw the design patterns with paint actually in the backyard to even give us further insight to what it might look like, sizes of everything, layout and provided us with very detailed pricing for us to think about. This was an absolutely great experience for us being first time buyers of a pool/spa ect…. We felt very comfortable with Frank and at no time felt pressured to sign anything or commit. After careful thought and consideration we agreed to partner with Solda Pools.

Phase Two:

The build stage commenced – Peter Solda was great at getting all the permits , working with the city to do so – nothing we needed to do. When the build commenced it didn’t take long for my wife and I to realize we hired the right company and having Peter Solda on-site each day was absolutely fantastic – no one knows pools/spa’s and cement like Peter Solda – just an absolute expert. It was awesome to watch – some days there was as many as 27 full – time Solda Pools staff on site and they showed up everyday just the team size varied as the projects moved forward depending on what was next in the build phases. My wife and I got to know a lot of Solda Pools staff. The workers on site are a pleasant surprise, most had been with Solda Pools greater than 20 years as full-time employees and even some with 27/28 years and experts in their craft. My wife and I did make changes on the fly in terms of deck size and layout to increase deck size and design & had Solda Pools plug in beautiful flower beds around the pool area that we would populate at a later date. The phase two build experience was equal to or greater than even our phase one experience. My wife and I were so pleased with Solda Pools as it was all stress free for us and we just had to watch and enjoy and have fun. The guys were really great in every area. Solda Pools had the project complete end to end build phase done in less than 3 months and this was a big project. – thus having everything ready for my family & I to just enjoy. They also provided a one on one education day with us face to face in home on how all the hardware works in the Cabana and spent as much time as we needed to familiarize ourselves with the pool/spa/heater controls. We then opted to go with their hand held wireless remote feature that manages everything as it relates to the pool spa hardware , heating lighting , ect .. end to end at the simply press of a button thus did not need to deep dive learn how all the hardware works as the remote does it all.

Phase Three:

We were so impressed with Solda Pools that we didn’t want anyone else but Solda Pools to service the pool . We engage John Solda and Will Burns. Wow just when we thought we seen it all – The service crew is absolutely fantastic, extremely knowledgeable and know everything and more about the pools & spa’s and all the hardware and plumbing. The guys come out every Friday to our home to service the pool /spa and have never missed a cleaning, they are so dependable! They repair any cracked pipes at no charge or any smaller issues you may experience at no charge – they are just that good and the customer service they bring is absolutely great. The guys are very friendly and helpful in all of your needs. The service experience has been fantastic and no one but Solda ever touches my pool and Spa. The service team just goes the extra mile always is what we find and we are so pleased with them. They also provide special cleaning services for your big pool party events which we also take advantage of as we run a large family pool party of 30 guests each year and Solda comes up in the early morning to make sure the pool/spa is crystal clear and ready to go for your big event and gone much before any guests show up. – Really great !!! There’s just no words to descried just how good these guy really are.

Phase Four – Final Phase which was completely optional.

Again we were so impressed with Solda that we then engaged Solda landscaping and horticultural experts to landscape the front of our home and to complete all landscaping in the backyard. What a great experience this was. Sounds odd to have a pool company landscape your home. These guys were fantastic providing architectural designs and consulting along with all associated pricing. We commenced the landscaping phase and it was done to perfection. The reality is our home is the nicest on the street and everyone stops in the community asking us who did the fantastic landscaping and installed all the big trees and shrub/flower gardens. We are so proud, my wife and I.

Final comments: The difference – Solda is a full turnkey end to end company employing 100 full-time long standing staff of experts. Solda does every phase with all their own full time staff never outsourcing or giving any phase to a third party business we learned before initially engaging and are the only full turnkey pool/spa provider – Solda does it all end to end. The other pool companies farm out phases of the build to inexperienced third parties- they will all tell you they don’t but when the build phase happens you will see then all the problems you will face with each company blaming the issues on the other company. My neighbour is a perfect example of that trying to save money going with another brand name pool company and ended up with so many problems an no real on-going warranty.

The reality is you get what you pay for: Solda Pools while not cheap are the very best in everything they do and if you’re looking for the highest level of quality and service in every phase and have a product that will last years and years Solda Pools is the only company to engage. My wife and I highly recommend Solda as they exceeded our expectations in every phase of the above and are the most honest people to partner with – simply no surprises and the craftsmanship and quality far surpasses any other pool company in operation today serving the GTA and surrounding areas including the country side homes. Simply put – Solda pools is the very best !!!

For further information please feel free to reach out to me directly @ 416-498-0404. I would be happy to share my Solda experience with you as not many times do you get a good honest company like Solda that puts out the highest level of quality in every phase and for me that’s deserves recognition.
