About us

A local pool company that tells you straight.

Coastline Pools helps Southern California homeowners plan repairs, remodels and new pools without the runaround. Weekly service routes start in the Inland Empire.

How we work

Two kinds of work, each handled the right way.

  • Cleaning & maintenance: our own teamWeekly cleaning and water chemistry is done by our own team, with a text and a photo after every visit. Weekly service routes start in the Inland Empire; elsewhere we match you with a vetted local pro.
  • Repairs, remodels & new pools: licensed partnersConstruction and most repair work in California requires a state contractor's license (CSLB). That work is performed by independently licensed, insured contractors we partner with. You'll see their license number in writing before any work starts, and we stay your point of contact.

How it works, step by step

You start by sending a request through the contact page or by building a design in the 3D designer. A real person reads it and replies with next steps, whether that is a cleaning start date, a few questions about a repair, or an offer to set up a site visit.

For repairs, remodels and new pools, the next step is a visit to your home. A licensed partner contractor looks at the yard or the equipment, measures, checks access and gives you a written estimate. If you go ahead, you sign a written contract directly with that licensed contractor for the construction or repair work. Nothing starts on a handshake.

For weekly cleaning, the path is shorter. Check your instant price on the pool cleaning page, confirm your address is on a route (routes start in the Inland Empire; elsewhere we match you with a vetted local pro), and service starts on a set day each week. Service is month to month, so there is no long contract to get out of if it isn't a fit.

Why we work with licensed partner contractors

In California, construction and most repair work on a pool requires a state contractor's license from the Contractors State License Board (CSLB). Pool construction typically falls under the C-53 swimming pool classification, and some work, like electrical or gas lines, can fall under other classifications. Rather than blur that line, we match that work to independently licensed, insured contractors.

You get the contractor's name and license number in writing before any work starts, and you can verify it yourself at cslb.ca.gov. Our guide on checking a pool contractor's license walks through it. California also limits the down payment on a swimming pool contract to 2% of the contract price or $200, whichever is greater, so a request for a large deposit up front is a red flag.

What Coastline Pools does itself

Weekly pool cleaning and water chemistry is done by our own team on routes that start in the Inland Empire (elsewhere we match you with a vetted local pro), with all chemicals included in the monthly price. We also help with design, using the 3D designer and our own price book to give you a planning estimate before you talk to anyone. And we stay your one point of contact, so you aren't left chasing a builder for answers.

That one point of contact matters most when something goes sideways. If a schedule slips, an inspection fails or a question comes up mid-project, you have someone to ask who already knows your design and your contract, and who will give you a straight answer.

Where we work

Weekly cleaning routes start in the Inland Empire. Design, remodel, repair and new pool inquiries are taken across Southern California, including Orange County, San Diego County and Los Angeles County. If your address or project is outside what we and our partners cover, we'll tell you straight.

Why we built the designer

Price first. Then the phone call.

Most pool companies ask for your name, email and phone before you see a single number. We built a 3D designer that shows your yard, a real-size pool and an estimate first. You decide whether to talk to anyone.
