We get that we service homes, not accounts or addresses.
This company has grown because our hometown bond guides us in everything we do. It’s almost as if we’re working in our own backyards. Plus, if you tell us you’re going to the beach in La Jolla, we’ll probably ask which one.
GL Pools was founded in 2006 on the belief that the pool service industry needed more experts. Ever since, we’ve developed and promoted our own staff as a principle, and equipped them with the highest degree of professional knowledge. We want our average technician coming out of training to have a more robust knowledge of the industry than most pool service business owners.
Our techs are smart, courteous and approachable people who aren’t afraid to show a client how a test strip works, double-check their work to make sure it’s perfect, and get creative about solutions. We hire people who can maintain the relationships, not just the pools, that keep customers coming back.
If that sounds like you and you want to work with us: fantastic. We’d love to hear from you. Visit our careers page here, or send a resume and some information about yourself to contact@gl-production.bd9bq7sv3p-eqg35xwdm6xn.p.temp-site.link.
And if you’re a client, know this: investing in our people lets GL Pools be your turnkey solution to everything related to your pool or spa, from weekly pool service to larger maintenance tasks, like pump installations or filter cleanings. See who we are below.
