Client Testimonials

I just wanted to briefly touch base and say “THANK YOU” for a very successful year. We had a few minor bumps here and there which were very insignificant. I probably drove Crystal crazy a few times😊 but she was nothing short of awesome in her response and attention to our needs. Thank you again for all your help.

I just wanted to write you a quick note to commend two of your employees who work at our pool here in The Landings.

Our lifeguard supervisor, Ben, has been doing a tremendous job supervising our pool from day one. He keeps a close eye on things and quickly responds to any request when called upon. He was a great lifeguard last year and even a better supervisor this year. We’re glad our pool is under his watch.

And one of our lifeguards, Sierra, is truly exceptional. Today, when there was a period when no swimmers were present at the pool, she took it upon herself to hop in the pool and polish our entire perimeter of pool tiles. Most other lifeguards normally take a break and relax during occasional down times but not her—she made herself productive instead—and our pool looks great! I’ve also seen her skimming the surface of the pool with a net during break times to keep it in tip-top shape, and she always rolls up hoses neatly rather than leaving them in a tangled pile. I know these are little things, but little things do matter. Our pool always looks its best when she is on duty!

Both Ben and Sierra do an awesome job here at The Landings and our community notices. They’re both great ambassadors for Hastings Water Works!

Hastings Water Works does a great job!

They are on time, courteous, and take care of everything.

They’ve replaced heaters for me, tiles, covers – anything I ask.

-Steve

The staff and crew at Hastings Water Works has always provided excellent service and customer service.

They have even taken care of problems when we were out of town and their service allows us to year after year enjoy our pool without interruption.

We would recommend them to anyone.

-Joan

Hastings Water Works is very professional and the best pool company I have ever worked with.

They are a great company!

-Frank

I want to thank my friends at Hastings Water Works.

It has been an expensive and unpleasant experience with our pool not being what we expected when we bought this property.

Trusting Hastings has made it bearable.

-Beth

Rob is fantastic !! He’s on top of his game and makes sure everything is working properly. I hope he never leaves because I’d be following him. He makes everything personal. He takes care of pools like they are his.

-Janice

Your service department was great to work with. They responded in a timely manner and did their best to keep things running smoothly. The supervisor assigned to Maple Heights was Victoria Riley. I cannot say enough about this young woman. She kept in touch with me and made me aware of any and all issues related to the Spray Ground. She went well beyond keeping tabs on the young people working at the Spray Ground, making sure all paperwork was complete and correct and helping to keep me informed and at ease with all issues  I am sure that the Cuyahoga County Board of Health inspection was rated excellent in large part due to Victoria. She is an asset to Hastings Water Works and we hope to work with her again.

We go through a swim season running at warp speed every year.

Just wanted to stop and take a moment to let you know that your management team of Rachel and Sami have been great to work with this summer. They have worked diligently and professionally with all three Bob’s on the board (LOL) to keep Forest Park beautiful and running smooth. They effectively resolved any concerns we had in maintaining and running the pool in addition to helping the assigned guards with their questions. They always had a friendly and positive attitude.

They both made sure the guards have been doing their jobs and keeping everyone safe. They have made this season one of the best we’ve had with Hastings. We would love to have them back next summer.

Thanks as always.

Forest Park Association

This is Shelby Goldstein, Director of Park Synagogue’s day camp. I know that unfortunately it’s way more common for customers to reach out with concerns or complaints, but I have been having such a positive experience this summer and wanted to make sure that I give credit where it’s due.

Recently, Victoria was named the area manager of our pool. Ever since she became my primary contact, she has made herself available to me and assisted with any issues we may have had. The second she came in, she began organizing the pool house and making sure the area was in good shape. Every time I had to reach out, she was always available to me and made sure to follow up.

I just wanted to thank you for an excellent experience thus far and make sure that Victoria’s efforts and leadership style did not go unnoticed.

Have a great day!

Shelby Goldstein
Park Day Camp Director

I just wanted to write and let you know how happy we are with our front-line supervisors at The Landings pool. Antonio is doing a super job providing daily supervision over our lifeguards. He resolves minor issues quickly and has done a terrific and timely job informing me of any situation—all of which he handles with utmost professionalism. Both he and his supervisor, Amanda, have tremendous customer service skills and I greatly appreciate that.

Amanda has done a great job keeping me informed on our equipment issues. She has provided me with detailed briefings on matters that affect the operation of our pool and has swiftly coordinated the much-needed replacement of items that either wore out or broke so we wouldn’t miss a beat.  Amanda and Antonio have been working together in sync to properly maintain and operate our pool and our community has noticed! Thank you for bringing on such impactful young professionals to your team. They are shining a positive light on your company.

Sincerely,

Jeff Urbaniak
President

I just wanted to take this opportunity to tell you how much I appreciate your responsive service. Being that we have two separate systems there are many issues. Each and every time I call or email you I am never disappointed. You always respond promptly and positively to my requests and it is truly a pleasure to do business with you.  Thank you for everything you do for me!

Your techs were here yesterday and did a really nice job servicing the pool and spa. Both had accumulated debris in the bottom, but are totally clean now. I have to admit I was suffering from the ”where’s Jeff?” syndrome when I saw how young these guys are. Both were good, but the lead guy was especially helpful, communicated well, and diagnosed (and fixed) the spa pumps issue, no problem. Not likely at this point in his career that he has the breadth of knowledge or experience that Jeff has, but he impressed me with the great job he did.  You have another good one there.

I just wanted to take a moment to thank you and your team at Hastings Water Works for all of your efforts in getting the pools open in a timely fashion at Signature of Solon/Fox Meadow/Weymouth Country Clubs. I realize that your team had minimal time to execute a significant number of pool openings. We greatly appreciate the prompt reaction following the State of Ohio’s surprise announcement in mid-May to get us up and running as quickly as possible.

I also want to acknowledge the attentiveness of both Rysheen and Olivia. I have spent most of the last two days at the pool and they have both been visible, friendly and accommodating during all of our interactions. Looking forward to a great pool season here at Signature.

Best wishes,

-Dan

I want to let you know that I am very proud of the cleanliness of our pools and look forward to enjoying swimming in that beautiful water every year now that I’m retiring. Your service technicians at Hastings Water Works have always provided exceptional service, ensuring pool chemistry was spot on, making our pools the envy of all other outdoor pools in the area. Please extend my sincere appreciation for their hard work season after season after season.

“We have always received excellent service from Hastings, be it the on-site crews (Alex, Brandon, etc.), service via Ryan Schweikert, and Project Management from Mike Klauser. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else.”

5 stars to Hastings Water Works for excellent customer service, responsiveness and execution. Needed a second opinion to determine if I had algae or dirt in my pool. Referred to Hastings by a life-long friend, who uses Hastings for everything. Called Hastings around 11 a.m. on a Friday and was prompted to leave voice mail for Tori Chesmar, Assistant Service Manager.  Received call back within 2 hours and work order placed within 5 hours. Tori had a great regard for listening, facilitating and solving my problem.  After I explained my situation, Tori advised me step by step (which involved evaluating emailed images of my pool) on what was next and ultimately created a work order that her project teammate would see upon return to work on following Tuesday. On the following Tuesday, Tori called to tell me that her team would be at my home the following afternoon. Team Tom and Jake were professional, courteous, and evaluated everything. Was relieved to learn that I didn’t have an algae problem, only a dirt problem, which confirmed my need for a second opinion.

Pool ownership can be stressful, especially when you know you have a problem but can’t find the right experts to help you figure things out. I have been in the commercial customer service industry for 25 years and always call out excellence.

Hastings Water Works is a 5 star company in my book!

Dawn Rockas

We truly appreciate both of your promptness and professionalism! We were very impressed with Heather and the Hastings’ Team yesterday and are looking forward to another great season! Thank you for both of your hard work already!

I wanted to share my appreciation to you for the work that was performed yesterday on our pool.

As you know, we had a significant leak that was slightly out of warranty on work you had performed earlier. The guys that arrived yesterday were extremely courteous and professional. They actually found a second leak and fixed that too.

As a business owner, I know it’s easy managing things when all is going well. But it’s times like these, when there are issues, that great companies are separated from good companies. Hastings Water Works is a great company and I thank you guys for stepping up to the task and solving our problem. We won’t hesitate to use you ongoing or highly recommend your services to others.

Please pass on our thanks to your team.

Thanks so much for sending Brandon this morning. He found a clogged pump. Everything is up and running !

It is so nice knowing that I can get help from you. Everyone that comes to our house from Hastings is so polite, knowledgeable and friendly. We appreciate it it so much.

Thanks again,

I just wanted to thank you again for taking the time to come out and look at our pool personally.  Your guys opened our pool Monday and came back today for a check up.  Asking them questions, I don’t get the run around or some silly excuse, they know what they are talking about!!  Tony and Ryan have both been wonderful!  Helped me through a few things on the Jandy app and showed me how the pool system works. I’m finally feeling comfortable that our pool is in good hands.

Thank you VERY much!

Another great experience with Hastings today! We feel we are in great hands, it’s
nice to know that you’re all so professional and respectful. Thanks again for taking
care of all our needs this summer, while we were home and away. Our pool has never
looked better, thanks to your guidance!

Thanks again for all your help, talk with you in May !

I was very pleased with your service. Your workers were quite courteous and prompt when I needed the new pump and service on the pump electric line. You will certainly be back to close the pool this fall.

Thanks,

I just wanted to drop you a line to let you know how impressed I am with your firm, your team, and your service. The guys opened the pool and it looks great. They have even been out to clean it. I even like the card they leave on the door with the services provided and water chemistry.

I can’t thank you enough for your personal service.

Thank You,

I just want to tell you and your crew what a great job you ALL have done. Your ideas have given new life and a fantastic look to our pool.

The new plumbing is great and the water level seems to be holding steady so far. I will continue to check it.

Again… thank you for all the courtesy, understanding, and most of all your excellent work.

Sincerely,

Roger and Debbie G. 
May 2017;

Service was great! I am just so pleased, I can’t even compare you with the company I have used in the past.

I have told my friends that have pools.

I would like to schedule regular service. I will call you to see what my options are.

Liz D. 

I thank you for your diligence in taking care of our pool. I am glad that we found your company.

I am sure you can imagine the difficulties we had with the installers of our pool. I’m not surprised about the parts that needed to be replaced – I was having trouble getting the pilot to light myself.

Thanks again. I have recommended you to several people and will continue to do so.

Have a great summer and we’ll contact you when it comes time to close the pool.

Sincerely,

Deepak G. 

Dan and John were out yesterday for our pool opening, and I just want to let you know how impressed I was with their professionalism and attention to detail. We have been very pleased with our Hastings Water Works experiences so far.

I believe there were a number of places that were popping loose on the top edge of the pool liner. They took care of those before leaving.

I appreciate the earlier quotes for a new filtration system, salt system and solar cover as well.Please either e-mail or call me with options for the pump.

Thanks,

Mary A.

We have been very pleased with every aspect of our Hastings experiences so far, from talking with Rick at the very beginning to the completed job. Larry was also out one day when I was home and was very pleasant and professional. Everyone I have dealt with has been terrific!

Thank you so much for providing such excellent service.

Mary A.

I would like to use Hastings Water Works for any repairs and opening and closing the pool. I plan to contact you this fall to schedule the closing. 

John D. 

Thank you so very much for taking care of our pool problem, your company is just so fabulous. It is so very nice to do business with a place of business that still believes in giving great customer service. When ever asked if I know a great pool company I don’t hesitate to give out your name. The guys that came out were great, I think you must have the best team of people working for you. Thank you again and have a great summer!

Lisa M. 

Just wanted to thank you for installing the new pool cover for me this summer.

Over the years I have tried to receive service from several of the local pool companies to no avail. It was always “well we didn’t install the pool” or “we’re pretty backed up with openings or closings” or simply no return of any of my phone calls.

Suffice it to say your company has been totally awesome to deal with. You fit winter work into the summer for me, you were extremely prompt and courteous in all our interactions, and your pool guys actually left my backyard cleaner than when they started. 

Thanks again,

Eric B.
