In the summer of 1970, the way swimming pools were constructed was forever changed. Lou Downes and his brother began a fledgling pool cleaning service to earn money to go to college. They quickly realized that the market needed someone to build a better pool.

By 1974 Lou had received his degree and his company was already showing the signs of rapid growth. With the service side working smoothly, Lou branched off into pool construction, which today is what sets his company apart from all the rest.

Lou approached the construction portion of his company with a very simple philosophy, overbuild whenever possible, give your clients the strongest possible pool that can be made, and above all else, pay attention to all the details. The attention to the smallest detail is what will keep your customers secure in the knowledge that they are getting only the best quality.

Downes pools innovations, such as a single source provider for services , have been copied but never equaled in the industry. With customer satisfaction as Downes Pools main objective, many clients have even had Downes build their second and third pool for their homes. Downes Pools is a company that prides itself on being able to grow with the client.

We are not just a construction company, we are a full service organization that is prepared to offer the finest quality maintenance and custom design capabilities. To prove this point even further, unlike other companies that claim to be construction and design experts, all pools that are represented on this website were designed and built exclusively by Downes Pools.
