Does A Pool Need Weekly Servicing?

If you want a pool that’s not only crystal blue but always PH balanced for health and safety then, YES, weekly service is mandatory. It doesn’t take long for your pool to become unbalanced and unfit to enjoy. Consistent maintenance is the only way to keep it sparkling clean and ready for use.

From the first time we spoke with Nick on the phone, to the installation and completion of our new pool liner and heater. we had no regrets we found the right person and company, Hirsch Pools, to service our pool needs.First, superb customer service! Nick gets a five star rating for responding immediately to any questions regarding your pool needs/ equipment. When we sat down with him to discuss installation of a new pool heater and liner, Nick was professional and never tried to upsell us. His pricing was very responsible. He was knowledgeable, honest and helpful from start to finish. Transparency was never an issue with Nick.After our questions and concerns were answered in a timely manner we never felt put off or ignored by Nick. This was not the case with the previous pool companies we dealt with.Prior to finding Hirsch Pools, we were having issues with getting our concerns answered by other pool companies regarding our old heater and liner. It was becoming a frustrating and costly expense.The installation went without issues.The installers were courteous, friendly, and polite. They went right to work and got the job done.We love our new liner and heater!We are so thankful to have found Hirsch Pools. Nick earns a five star review from us and we highly, highly recommend him and his crew.Thanks again Nick for continuing to service our pool and look forward to a long relationship.Thurston and Vera

Nick helped us with a complicated problem with a leak in one of our lines. He stayed in contact with us through the repair process. It took repairs in a couple spots but Nick stayed in communication with us through the process. Thanks Nick

Nick replaced the liner in my pool and closed it both last year and this year.. He and his crew were friendly and prompt. His prices are reasonable as well.

Recently had a pool liner, salt water filter and new motor installed.Pool liner fit like a glove.. Nick is easy to work with, good communicator, and professional. HE actually does the measuring and install with his crew. The pool looks new.

Nick is the man, he recently modernized our pool to salt water and replaced our liner. The new system is 10x easier to maintain and and looks like a brand new pool. Thanks Nick for the consultation and direction, we could not be happier.

Hirsch Pools does fantastic work! I don’t normally write reviews, but I had four different pool companies come to my house to inspect the leak and all walked away saying that there is nothing to be done but rip up all of my concrete. Hirsch came and within one hour, diagnosed the problem and just a few days later fix the leak and the pool has been perfect(no concrete destroyed at all!). I was so happy with the work that I had them come and install a saltwater system as well as a pool heat pump. Again, awesome job by the group and will be using them every year from here on out.

We had a great experience with Hirsch Pools! We contacted Nick early in the season because we were in need of a new liner for this summer. He made the process extremely easy for us and completed the job a week before it was promised. Our pool looks absolutely beautiful! His work is meticulous and we couldn't be more excited to use it this summer.

Ferdinand Almonte

21:24 04 May 24

We had an amazing experience working with Hirsh Pools and Nick. I was in need of upgrading all of our equipment and I did a lot of research and spoke to quite a few companies. Nick was one of the few that actually made the time to meet with me and review equipment option's. We decided to go all the way and upgraded to salt. Hirsh Pools had a legal contract detailing all the work and the approximate start date. Nick never asked for payment until the work was fully done. The work was awesome, everything was done as explained and he has even followed up a few times just to see how everything has been working. I get the impression that Nick is the kind of person that would give you a shirt of his back if you needed it. If you know the personality then you know you are in good hands with Nick and his team. I don't write many reviews but I strongly felt this one warrented. Good luck.

After trying to figure out why my pool was leaking, Hirsh Pools were the only company to figure out the problem, address it and fix it completely. They ended up installing a new liner, but that was after running a battery of tests on the pump and pipping. Nick knows more about pools than all the other companies I called combined, and I called ALL of them. They also closed my pool after installing the liner and did a top notch job. I will ONLY use Hirsh Pools for ANYTHING pool related again.

Had a mess of a pool at property in Nassau found Nick on google and he not only did him and his crew fix all our issues and provided us with new equipment he’s very knowledgeable and straightforward best prices and customer service I had experienced with a pool company highly recommended and look forward to working with them again…. He is even going to close our pool now and with rapid response.

Jessica Lennon

17:59 13 Sep 23

I contacted Nick on Friday evening of Labor Day weekend and he answered his phone while on vacation and assured me he would be at my house the following morning to fix my heater. He came exactly when he said he would be there, fixed the heater, charged a MORE than reasonable price and answered every single one of my follow-up questions. He even offered to come back to show me a few things that I was confused about. I could not be happier with the service that Nick provided and could recommend him more highly! I have worked with a lot of pool companies in my years as a pool owner and hands down Nick went ABOVE AND BEYOND.

01:09 23 Aug 23

We’ve known Nick the past several years. When we hired him to install our pool cover in spring of 2022 he was easy to work with from the very beginning. He did a great job, and the final product met our expectations. Where Nick stands out is his follow up service - he came back to install pool liner lock this summer to strengthen the liner attachment to the coping, and when we opened our pool this year to find that it bloomed he offered to help remediate it the issue. He was very responsive, went beyond his responsibilities, serviced the needed chemicals, and provided excellent follow up directions. His knowledge and experience brings extra value to his services.

Donna Keays

14:35 12 Aug 23

Nick and his crew were a joy to be around. Communication is very prompt. Our pool is beautiful and it wasn't an easy job. Would recommend

Nick was prompt, professional and very knowledgeable. He brought tA crew and everything necessary to do the job. In and out in 1 hour. Very satisfied with this end to a rough experience.

Daniel Weaver

01:43 07 Jul 23

Nick was no BS. Fair price. Quick service. Always answered his phone. Did the right thing by his customer to get the liner in when he said it would be in by. Good quality work. Very happy with the liner and definitely would recommend him to anyone.

Brooke Nemec

We had our in ground pool liner replaced and they did an amazing job, fast, professional and very helpful with all our questions. Defiantly a great company to do business with.

Cameron McKee

21:48 29 Jun 23

Nick and the crew were a life saver putting in my new liner and pipes. Price was great, everyone was super friendly and did fantastic work. My only drawback is they are very busy doing multiple jobs at once so sometimes there would be a few days where no one would show up but aside from that I highly recommend this company!

Andrew DiNardi

03:09 23 Jun 23

This is the best Contractor I’ve ever worked with. He took care of my pool in a matter of days perfectly he was absolutely honest about everything even save me some money when he could.Most reliable person I’ve ever worked with

Andrea Tote-Freeman

Nick tried like heck to fix my heater but it was beyond repair so he installed a new one for me. He really knows his stuff and did a great job. Would definitely recommend him!

Chris Earnshaw

23:02 11 May 23

Nick at Hirsch Pools has now bailed us out twice. Last year we needed a new pump installed and he was able to come out same day. This year the heater wasn’t working and we were back up and running the same day I called him. Great guy, great service.

I recently had my pool serviced by Hirsch Pool and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed with their work. They not only replaced my pump but also installed a saltwater system, and fixed a leak that had been plaguing me for over a year.The team at Hirsch Pool was prompt, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. They took the time to explain everything they were doing and answered all of my questions, which really put my mind at ease. The installation of the saltwater system was seamless and the team ensured that everything was working properly before they left.The pump replacement and leak fix were also done efficiently and effectively. I am thrilled with the end result and my pool has never looked better. I appreciate the level of care and attention that Hirsch Pool put into their work, and their commitment to ensuring that everything was done to the highest standard.Overall, I would highly recommend Hirsch Pool to anyone in need of pool services. Their professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail are truly unmatched. Thank you, Hirsch Pool, for your outstanding work!

Nick. Is very responsive and through. His guys are quick and have good attention to detail. I would recommend him to anyone who needs help solving a non standard problem.

Had a hard time finding someone to fix the leaky skimmer and return on our 40ft indoor pool. Called everyone in Ulster county and no one would even look at it. Googled pool repair and found Nick who not only responded right away but promised he could fix it. He scheduled it in quickly and he and hid assistants did it promptly and the results were terrific. A real lifesaver!Don't hesitate to call him when you're in need of great service.

Aaron Tang

04:18 28 Nov 22

Excellent experience. Nick came out and helped us install a fiberglass pool. Very knowledge and nice to work with. Went out of his way to make sure everything was right. Would definitely recommend him for any pool services.

Thomas Gabriel

I can't say enough good things about Nick and his team. They were the only ones to help me out in an extreme time of need. This was one of the best customer experiences I ever had.My liner ripped first weekend of owning the pool at my new home. I had no idea what to do. All other companies I called offered no help and basically told me I'm out of luck until NEXT SPRING! I had no idea what to do and was in one of the most stressful situations I'd ever experienced.Nick answered my call and was extremely helpful putting my mind to ease. He came by and explained everything to help me fully understand what I had going on. He quickly replaced my entire liner of the pool (couple weeks time). While working we discovered the lights did not work either. He was able to replace those as well. Guess what, we ran into an electrical problem, he got an electrician who was great and came by to get things right. It was one thing after another and if it weren't for him I would have been lost. He was also very transparent about pricing and charged me fair amounts for everything. Then he and the team closed up my pool. Can't thank him enough for all he did.

Nick was great to deal with. I had him replace a pool liner and close my pool. Liner came out great, the work was done in a timely manner and always stayed in contact. Look forward to using him in the future for other pool needs. Highly recommend

Nick took over from another business that I will not name but hope that no one ever uses the other guy. Nick came out and measured the horrid smelling cesspool that was taken as is with the house.The pool was pumped out and liner replaced; we were going to try to do a heater over the winter but it didn't work out. At Nick's advise we went with a saltwater pool, had we not we would have been stuck as apparently the titanium inside largely comes from Russia.It took while to sort out our system but it was crystal clear for my July wedding and we've been in there any day the weather was agreeable since.At one point after that the pool started to turn green and I just increased the chlorine output to 80% from 60% and the next day it was clear. No shock, no fuss, just a great pool experience.The saltwater of the pool doesn't hurt your eyes like chlorine pools do and all of my family have noticed it. Having grown up on the ocean I can feel the buoyancy difference between a fresh water pool and a saltwater pool. I would choose this operation again every time.I found Nick's experience and pool savvy to be great, and I would use him again.Over all I have a new pump, new filter, new liner, saltwater chlorine generator thing and a darn nice pool. Oh and the dolphin pool cleaner robot is awesome, really glad we did that.Thank you Sir and your team.

Nick was phenomenal to deal with in regards to our pool issues. I called him with an issue and he quickly returned my call and was eager to help. He was professional, personal, and genuinely cared to help. When the pool required additional work he readily problem solved and continued to work on the pool until it was fixed. I would highly recommend Nick and Hirsch pools!

5 stars!!! I recently purchased a foreclosed home and was stuck with a disgusting in ground pool not in use for 7 years, with torn liner, malfunctioning pump, etc. Nick and his team came to help me restore my pool and placed new liner despite the complex shape of the pool and the state of disaster it had been in. It came out PERFECT. Nick was very timely and informative during the entire process. He repaired and replaced extra equipment with no extra charge. There is no better than Nick with Hirsch Pools!!

My name is Robert Brennan I own Brennan Family Remodeling INC. I have used Hirsch pool a couple of time for property's that I maintain. Every time I have need any thing from a pool heater replacement to a new filter system for one of my clients they have been right there on the spot with in days with professional service the entire team is great to work with. I would recommend Hirsch pool to anyone that is inneed of there service. 5 stars all dY.

Nick always responds to us quickly. After 4 or 5 other pool companies either ignored us, did a not so great job or didn't show, Nick took our pool from a swamp complete with frogs to really clean and clear. We've also trusted him with a liner and new stairs and it looks fabulous. Nick spent hours trying to fix a faulty heater from another vendor and has referred us to other good people to handle other issues on the property. We appreciate his willingness to answer all sorts of questions!

Tasha Stewart

22:38 08 Feb 22

Can't say enough about Nick and Hirsch Pools. We had an awful experience with an area pool company. We had them replace our liner and soon after we started losing water. I looked online found Hirsch Pools and called. I spoke with Nick and told him the issue and within an hour he was at my house assessing the problem. He checked in daily to see how his temporary fix was. He reached out to several other pool companies in the area on our behalf to have them all come and assess issue also. After all the time and energy he put into our issue not once would he accept money. He just felt awful for what we were going through. A judgement was won by us against the other company and now we will hire Nick to replace our liner. Nick is diligent, conscientious and trustworthy. We need more contractors/businesses like this!

Nick solved a water issue that no other company could. The pool had been neglected for several years, the water was a dark murk and now it is crystal clear . Excellent trouble shooter , very professional and attention to detail. Highly recommended !

James Kane

17:07 29 Nov 21

We had nick & his team put a new liner, new pump, convert to salt water and a new safety cover (They literally redid our entire pool). I'm really satisfied with everything Hirsch Pools and highly recommend them.

Elizabeth Carney

We had a great experience with Nick. His workers are very respectful and knowledgeable. I would use them again and refer them. Had them winterize and put a liner in my pool.

If you need someone who knows about pools-call Nick. I was looking at buying a house with a pool and knew there were some issues, but didn’t know how much it would cost or how long it could take to get it all squared away. Nick picked up the phone, was willing to take time from his day to come & see it and give me an idea on cost. He even offered to schedule the work if I wanted to move forward with him so I could be sure I would get to enjoy the pool in time for the season. He was incredibly professional and I look forward to working with Nick. He’s been in the business a long time and it shows. Call Hirsch’s and talk to Nick!

When uncovering my pool this spring I discovered that it was completely empty of water and appeared to be falling in. The before pictures show the extent of the apparent damage. I contacted Nick based on the reviews and wanting to support small local businesses. He was very responsive and came right away to look at my pool. After removing the old liner to inspect what the problem was, Nick determined that the pool itself was structurally sound and I just needed a new liner. I picked a new liner and waited for its arrival. Once it arrived I was very surprised how quickly Nick was able to put it in place. My pool is odd shaped and has many weird angles. The liner looked seamless! The after pics are from the day of the new liner install. Additionally, I did not realize that the liner is iridescent. When light hits it it’s beautiful. Tried to get a picture to show but it’s much more apparent in person. Will be contacting Nick about a safety cover for the fall.

Nick and his team were amazing. Unbelievably great end result to fixing our in ground pool and making it better than it ever. Basically rebuilt it from a disaster left by another known pool company. He did everything he said he was going to do and more. He really cared about the project and other elements related to it that wasn’t even part of the scope. Definitely a value add beyond the cost of the job. Highly recommend.

Tina Forgea

22:19 27 Nov 20

We contacted Nick in a pinch with an end of the year pool issue. He was very responsive and helpful. He winterized and closed our pool. He also fixed an issue with the liner on our stairs simply because he didn't like the way it looked. We would highly recommend him, and we look forward to using him again for pool service in the future.

I am a Realtor and have been calling on Nick for a couple of years now when I have homes that are in need of pool servicing. Nick is always there for me and my clients. He goes above and beyond what one would normally expect. I recently listed a home, pool filter needed replacing and within 48 hours Nick had that new filter in place and ready for the buyers inspection. Nick at Hirsch Pools is definitely my go to Pool Contractor! If you need a pool installed, closed/opened or just maintained you won't be disappointed with the service Nick provides.

Our filter and our motor were cracked and leaking. The previous owners had used Bando on multiple areas unbeknownst to us. He rebuilt and replaced them items . What a world of a difference! We called on a Monday that Friday we had everything fixed, up and running. Any other pool service Was just going to close it and wait until next season to fix.

This is the first year I have ever had a pool and had no idea where to Even start.Hirsch to the rescue, Nick came over, thoroughly cleaned the algae that had taken over my pool, explained all that he did, and taught me along the way. He made sure my pool was chemically safe forMy kids, and made sure I was comfortable in how to maintain the pool to avoid algae from taking over again. My pool is now crystal clear and now I know what I’m doing. I highly recommend Hirsch. Professional, friendly, efficient, and a good teacher w great pricing. I’m so happy I found him, and look forward to working w him I’m the future . He took the time to put me through “pool school” and explained the ins and outs of maintaining a pool to someone who had no clue. I really appreciate the work he did and the knowledge I accumulated while he was here. I couldn’t have asked for a better company, and hope to continue our relationship going forward for as long as have our pool
