Thanks all for a great Summer. – The pool closings went GREAT. You can tell when a pro who cares about his work does something. Special thanks to Pete as always for the great job.

Rising Sun Pools Review - Full Install Pictures! – I'm currently in the process of writing a Rising Sun Pools Review with pictures, etc of the full install process. I'm putting in as much detail as possible to help ANYONE that is trying to decide on installing a swimming pool from Rising Sun or just a pool in general. You can see my review and images here - risingsunpoolsreviewraleighnc.shutterfly. com - the pool is still under construction. I had to open a website because I am posting so much detail. (Take out the spaces in... read more

Owner Response to Reviews – Dear Readers and Reviewers, City Search changed the way they allow owners of a business to respond to their own reviews - it does not show anymore as an "owner response" under the review we are commenting on, now they simply lump it all under the "comments" portion. Please know that we always take the time to address all reviews, comments and concerns personally. I would ask anyone reading these to please take the time to read my reponses as well under the comments section. Let me know if you have... read more

They (still) apparently don't want my business – We had Charlie Vasallo build our 16 x 36 inground pool way back in 1978. He was the founder and knew how to treat and retain customers and fostered loyalty. Since his untimely passing, the family has lost that magic. Every time I try to give Rising Sun Pools an opportunity to regain my business, they drop the ball. The most recent occasion was when I called on Friday, July 2 and asked for someone to contact me for an estimate to replace my pool liner. The young woman who answe... read more

Business response:

It was a very difficult transition for us and I truly am sorry if you feel the "magic" is gone but we are told by clients how refreshing it is to deal with a business with strong customer relations, frequently. I do apologize we did not call back in a timely fashion. However you may want to consider what it may say about the stability of a pool company not busy the week surrounding July 4th. Thank you for your comments they are appreciated.

This place drives me nuts! – I have tried to work with this company ever since I had my pool installed (by someone else). I have spent thousands over the years here. I can appreciate the fact they are slammed in the Spring, but I am paying for ongoing maintenance of my pool. I do not feel like a valued customer. Once you actually make it through the phone tag game and many minutes on hold, you can talk to one the friendly order takers. You now feel like you made progress. However, when the technician arrives (you are only no... read more

Business response:

Our company policy is to call the night before to let our customer know we will be in the yard, if requested we will call with more notice, I apologize if this wasn't explained thoroughly. I am not sure specifically what we did wrong because the review is quite vague - I am sorry you were left on hold & the technicians were actually competent. Thank your for your feedback and we do always welcome qualified technicians to apply for employment.

LEVEL OF SERVICE CONSISTENTLY SUPERIOR – We originally had RSP build our in-ground pool. Even though this is a difficult and messy, lengthy task, they did it with speed and worked with us on every aspect, including design, financing and the work we wanted to do ourselves. Our pool is 4 years old and even now, when I call with a question or repair or chemical question, they strive to help us repair, stabilize water or improve our pool's longevity. They offer free water testing and will give you step-by-step directions of how ... read more

Business response:

Thank you very much for your positive feedback. I am pleased you have been satisfied with our company and services and look forward to working with you more in the future. Tara

Comment: Rising Sun Pool - Raleigh – Just this spring we had an in ground "free-form" salt water swimming pool puchased and installed by Rising Sun Raleigh. Every step of the process was top notch from the initial ground markup by Chip, to the ground escavation, the installation of the steel side supports, the block retaining wall and concrete by RSB, the install of the beautiful pool fabric, the fencing by ROME and to the detailed walk thru of the pumping equipment by Kevin. The pool is beautiful and the system is working p... read more

Exceptional customer service – I've been dealing with RSP since they installed my inground pool last fall. As a new pool owner I had many questions, concerns, and a great deal of learning to go through. At every step along the way they were professional and demonstrated experience and expertise. There was no pressure to buy, no pressure to add unnecessary options or add-ons, and were very concerned that I get the pool I wanted. They coordinated with my electrician, my landscaper, my fencing contractor and my concrete company... read more

Overall Experience with Rising Sun – We have been using Rising Sun for over 8 years. RS installed our in-ground, heated vinyl insert pool and subcontracted for the deck. Generally, the staff that provided service on the pool were competent, professional and timely. We were able to talk with RS's crews and learn on do to many routine maintenance procedures (proper filter maintenance, how to put a winter pool cover on/ open/close pool) to minimize our annual costs. The owners (especially Tara) are always helpful and provide go... read more
