Addition of coping stone around existing pool; addition of retaining wall, landscaping and a firepit

My husband and I met with a number of landscape and pool companies, before we were fortunate enough to come across the BackYard Getaways team. We had a beautiful backyard and pool that was needing something to take it to the next level. The level of professionalism was clear from our first meeting with the landscape designer (Dan) through the planning process and of course the execution. James (the supervisor on the job) had an exceptional work ethic and paid attention to the details. The outcome was amazing! We love our new landscaping, firepit and how crystal clear our pool is with all the new equipment. Thanks to Regi and his team of professionals, we will be using BackYard Getaways for the front of our house next year!

Backyard Oasis

Thanks to Backyard Getaways, we now have our very own private oasis to enjoy with our children, family and friends. The decision was huge and we are glad we did our research. The team at Backyard Getaways are amazing, hard-working, dedicated individuals who are eager to please and worked day after day to ensure they meet our goals and deadlines. Their passion and devotion to reproduce our vision into something tangible was remarkable. This began with the process of meeting with us in the preliminary stages to produce a computed visual concept of the finished project. It is still striking to me how accurate the visual concept is to the real thing now that a comparison can be made. John and Regi are knowledgeable and experienced individuals who were able to guide us in making decisions when we felt unsure or overwhelmed with the possibilities available to us.
As promised the pool was up and running May long weekend, we couldn't have had a better summer and thanks to an amazing team we thank you all for your hard work. I would highly recommend them to anyone interested in turning their backyard into a private getaway.

Inground Salt Water Pool & Hardscaping

We did a lot of research before going forward with Backyard Getaways and they have only proven to be above the rest. Regi and John went above and beyond to please us and made every effort to ensure we were satisfied. At the end of the day we put our trust in you, and you came through without any doubt.

From the start of this project, your crew has been absolutely amazing and take pride in what they do because it shows in their work. We are extremely pleased with how our backyard has been transformed, and we know we will enjoy it for years to come.

Make the right decision and go with Backyard Getaways...

The team at Backyard Getaways did an excellent job building our in ground
pool and completing the landscaping . Everything ran smoothly from the
initial planning meetings to putting the final touches on things. Regi and
his team took the time and care needed to ensure that all of the details
were taken care of. I would recommend Backyard Getaways to anyone
considering putting in an in ground pool.

Shelley & I would like to express our appreciation for the amazing job that Backyard Getaways did on the transformation of our front and back yards. As you promised in the beginning, you started on time, finished on time and most importantly on budget. No surprises. From the excavation in the beginning through the final clean-up, all of your team (Aldo, Boris, Robert, James, Manuel and the rest of the guys) were professional, polite and very detail oriented. When we wanted minor changes to the plan there was never an issue and you and your team worked to accommodate them. Any time there was a problem, you were there to fix it, no questions asked. The results speak for them themselves. Every time we have someone over, they marvel at the quality of the work and how beautiful everything looks. The design, the colours, the wall, the new steps, the liner and the concrete came together just as we had hoped. We truly believe we now have our backyard getaway and look forward to using it as often as we can.

Thanks again to all the wonderful people at Backyard Getaways that worked on our project.

Inground Pool & concrete patterned patio

We've had our Backyard Getaway pool for almost 2 years now. We checked out a number of pool builders (Pioneer, Prestage, Jamieson) before we were referred to Backyard Getaways. We've been so happy with their work and follow-up. We were moving into a new house where we wanted to install a pool but we hadn't made our final decision on design. What we decided to do was to still put down a deposit so our build would be scheduled in and they could start as soon as we took possession of the house. I would recommend that if you are serious, you should probably do this since they now have a long wait list. They were slightly behind getting started back they worked so hard and diligently once they started. We've had a couple of minor issues since the completion (pool lights functioning, pipe leak, landscaping) but it's not really a concern because they are so responsive. We hear back immediately and they are out the same or next day to remedy the situation. They are so professional and their customer service is unbeatable. They take their work and customers very seriously.

Backyard Pool, Patio & Fencing

After carefully considering several local pool companies in our area, my husband & I chose Backyard Getaways this past summer to build our “dream backyard”. Our decision ultimately came down to the outstanding reviews here on Homestars & their diligence with us to achieve a higher-quality product at a price that beat out the competition. John was amazingly patient as we tinkered with quote details repeatedly. He ultimately won our vote with his professionalism, patience & ability to meet our budget.

When it came to construction, Regi too was absolutely incredible. He took the time to truly assess the pros & cons of exact pool placement (in order to save our beloved lilac bush! LOL!), in addition to verbally checking in throughout the entire construction process. We absolutely LOVED watching the pool take shape daily (as did our two young boys – who now LOVE anything to do with CONSTRUCTION!) & so enjoyed meeting all of the amazing staff. Despite minor hiccups that are bound to come up with construction projects, we are so incredibly happy with the final product. We are so pleased with the service we’ve received from Backyard Getaways – we LOVE that they’re a family owned & operated company. It’s a completely different feel – you can tell their goal isn’t to be the largest pool company, but rather the BEST! (Which they are!)

Now, as we wait for the snow to fall, my family & I dream of warm, sunny & refreshing days to be had pool-side in our glorious backyard oasis. :D

From our family to yours, a HUGE thank you to John, Regi, Aldo, Robert, Sean, Andrew, Boris, Victor, Daphne, Olivana, and anybody else we may have missed! Keep up the OUTSTANDING work guys! See you in the Spring! :D

A Thousand Thanks,

Chris, Carrie, Gavin & Will
