Devine Pools operated by Juan vd Schyff is a super fly-by-night Swimming Pool Contractor. The man has absolutely no clue. He takes an upfront payments and then keeps you hanging. He has no clue of timelines. Well he eventually pitched up six weeks after the agreed date. From the beginning one could see he is clueless. To cut a long story short, the fibre glass pool was installed skew meaning not level. I pointed it out but it was ignored. The filling around the pool not done right and now two walls are bulging inwards. The paving around the pool was done shoddy and dirtied it with cement residue. The swimming pool pump and heatpump electrical work had to be redone as nothing worked as it should. The cherry on the cake is now, the pool is leaking. Tried to contact him several times, but I am now blocked.

After getting a few quotes for pools I came across Devine Pools. They beat everyone on price but I was a little reticent to go with what seemed to be a very small business until I discovered that the shell they would be installing was the exact same one as the other company I was considering but a few thousand Rands less. So after checking some references I decided to take a chance on them and I was not disappointed. The work was done efficiently and timeously and Juan and his workers were always very friendly and polite. Everyone is delighted with the new pool. My only small gripe was that I had to follow up a couple of times to get my guarantee but that has since been sorted. I would happily recommend them.

We signed a contract with Devine Pools and paid the deposit (60%) as requested. (Pool size 3.2 x 2.2) Juan van der Schyff said that they will start with the pool on 4 November 2019 but only started on the 6th. On the 7th when delivering the pool another 30% was paid. We ordered a heated swimming pool as we have a 5 year old daughter and she prefers it. With the discussions with Juan he indicated that the heated panels will be fitted to our roof. He didnt fit it to the roof but placed it onto a "afdakkie". He promised that the water will be hot within 3 days. It is now 16 days and still no warm water. We contacted him several times in this regards and he kept on having excuses (made appointments but didnt attend it, His car broke down, and this morning (29 Nov 2019) he telephonically we need to add another panel). They didnt even clean the swimming pool properly. It was full of sand. He said that we had to clean it ourselves. We bought a sweeper but that was unsuccessful. Eventually we hired another company to help us to remove all the sand. (Extra costs for a job that was supposed to be done by Devine Pools. The creepy crawly that they installed is also not working at all. Juan keep on saying that we have to "play" with the pipes. We tried everything but it is still not working. After our telephone call this morning he said that the creepy crawly was a gift. He says that he cant do anything in this regards because we got it for free. We also paid for a pool cover but till date we didnt receive it. We eventually got the telephone details of the pool cover people and they informed us that Juan only ordered the cover around the 21st/22nd Nov and that it takes 6 weeks to make. This was also supposed to be delivered when pool was finished. The tiling around the pool is also uneven and some of them big spaces in between. The pool is also uneven. We only realized that when the pool was filled up with water. We gave Juan another change to fix our problems but he is not willing to do this. That is why we took the matter into our hands and are writing this review. Please do not make use of Devine Pools (vanderschuffjuan90@gmail.com or info@devinepools.co.za - 0797466640)
