Awards & Certifications
Recognition Earned One Backyard at a Time
34 years of excellence — acknowledged by the industry, verified by customers, and reflected in every pool we build.
Awards and certifications don’t build great pools — people do. But when an independent organization consistently recognizes Pacific Pools & Patios as one of the top pool builders in the region, it’s a reflection of something real: the standard we hold ourselves to on every single project, and the trust our clients extend to us when they hand over their backyard.
Here’s what we’ve earned — and what it means for you.

LICENSING & INSURANCE
Licensed, Bonded & Insured — Your Protection Matters
Hiring an unlicensed pool contractor is one of the costliest mistakes a homeowner can make — and unfortunately, it happens more than you’d think in California’s competitive pool market. It can mean shoddy work with no recourse, unpermitted construction that creates problems when you sell your home, and zero protection if something goes wrong on your property.
Pacific Pools & Patios is fully licensed by the California Contractors State License Board (CSLB), bonded, and comprehensively insured — protecting you, your property, and your investment from start to finish.
Credentials:

- 🛡️ General Liability Insurance — Your property is protected throughout construction

- 📋 Bonded — Added financial protection for your project
How to verify our license: You can verify Pacific Pools & Patios’ contractor license directly at www.cslb.ca.gov using our license number above. We encourage every homeowner to verify the license of any contractor before signing a contract.
OUR PROFESSIONAL STANDARDS
More Than a Certificate — A Commitment to Craft
Behind every award and credential is a set of practices that define how we work:
Permitted Construction Only – Every pool we build is fully permitted through the appropriate city and county authorities. We pull permits, schedule inspections, and ensure every aspect of construction meets California building codes. You’ll never have to worry about a future buyer discovering unpermitted work.
Transparent Quoting – We provide detailed, written, itemized quotes — so you know exactly what you’re paying for and why. No vague “lump sum” estimates that hide where your money is going.
Quality Materials – We use commercial-grade materials and trusted product brands throughout construction — not budget substitutes that compromise longevity.
Manufacturer & Industry Training – Our team stays current on equipment, automation systems, and installation best practices through ongoing manufacturer training and industry education.
A NOTE FROM PACIFIC POOLS & PATIOS
What These Awards Mean to Us
“We’ve been in this business for over 34 years, and I’ll be honest — the award we care most about is a customer who calls us back when their neighbor wants a pool.
The BusinessRate.com recognition matters because it’s independent. It’s not a plaque you buy or a membership you pay for. It’s based on what our customers actually say about us, and whether we’re running a legitimate, professional operation. That’s meaningful.
But at the end of the day, every certificate on our wall represents a family who trusted us with something important. We don’t take that lightly. We never have.”
