Tom and his team went above and beyond in providing A1 services in filling in my swimming pool. The team were so respectful and considerate of my age, and to myself and neighbours, taking great care in not damaging the site's surrounding area and garden. When completed the entire area was left immaculate, they did a fantastic job.

From the onset, Tom was engaging and the quote we received was competitive for an above-ground pool removal, combined with landscaping, including turf. The teams performed their work professionally and without delay. A neighbour even commented on the great job they did with cleaning up. The end result is something that we are pleased and be proud of. Thanks Tom and the crew at Reverse Pools!

I had a fantastic experience with Tom and his highly skilled team. My pool removal had some complex access issues including dealing with major service disconnections/connections and they managed it so efficiently, carefully and professionally. Their communication was excellent and I felt so confident in their work through the whole process. They worked with such care and precision and were so quick! Their coordination onsite was a remarkable feat to witness and they left the yard so neat and tidy. They were lovely to have on the premises too. I would recommend Reverse Pools very highly indeed.
