Austintatious Pools
Company Overview
As a small, family-operated business, Austintatious Pools has thrived alongside the larger competitors in the pool industry. Formerly known as Longhorn Pool Service, we have established ourselves as experts in creating top-notch pools and repairing existing ones. Our Renovation Design Specialist will transform your pool with an ""Austintatious Pool Make-Over"". We create and construct new pools at Austintatious Pools, utilizing cutting-edge materials and equipment for user-friendly functionality. Our owner, Michael Hurosky, began his journey in pool cleaning while attending the University of Texas and remains at the helm of the business. Longhorn Pool Service, the predecessor of our company, once employed over 400 individuals. The pandemic impacted us all, and by the end of August 2021, Longhorn Pool Service ceased operations. However, like a phoenix rising from the ashes, Austintatious Pools emerged, offering new pool construction and renovations for all types of pools and spas. Our design and construction team has successfully built over 300 swimming pools, and we are just getting started. I earned my CPO certification in 1986, and I have held NSPI membership since 1992, an APSP member and a ""Certified Building Professional"", and I hold certification as a Texas Electrical Installation Contractor, TDLR #463.

Recommended Customer Reviews

We used Longhorn Pool Company recently and were very satisfied with the process, start to finish. We had a unique situation where the house was also being remodeled completely, so the pool was unfinished for months, but once we were ready to complete, they got in gear and did a great job. I would use them again and have recommended them twice already in the last 30 days. Great job guys, we love it!

Please refer to google reviews for even more TERRIBLE reviews. I just posted one there and will post everywhere that I can to help others avoid these scam artists. I wish I had read all of the reviews before we hired them. The short version is that we spent over 40k and just a month in there are cracks everywhere! They refused to send anyone out, after several requests, to look at the pool. They avoided us at every opportunity. The owners are awful! Longhorn also goes by Austintatious Pools, probably another scam.

We love our pool and the service we have received from Maurice. Lisa goes out of her way to get our issues resolved very timely. Austintatious Pools built our pool and designed our deck and outdoor kitchen area where we spend a great deal of time with our family.

I contacted 4 pool companies in the Austin area to have tile work done. Three of the reps took borderline measurements. Estimates were incomplete at best. Only one person (Peggy Faust of Longhorn Pool) took the time to really look at the pool tiles and make sure there was no other structure issues. She drafted separate quotes for each item I wanted done. It took us a month to make the decision to go with Peggy's recommendations and we are so glad we did. We went to the showroom to go thru tiles and Peggy helped immensely getting the right color and look we were going for. It took them only a week and the pool looks new again. The two man team they sent did outstanding work. And since the pool wasn't drained dry, the sent a pool guy to clean out the debris and get the chemical balance back and he did a great job. I'm hoping in 2016, I can have them redo my patio as well!

I wish we had consulted with Longhorn Pool Service/Austintatious Pools before we had our pool remodeled by another contractor. We had Longhorn come out to repair 4 sections of our concrete pool decking that had partially collapsed and pulled away from the coping/gunite (prior to the pool remodeling project), and to repair a short retaining wall that was collapsing because the wall footing was not formed or poured correctly. The crew repaired the concrete pool decking and reinforced it properly and also poured a stronger footwall to keep the retaining wall from collapsing in the future. The crew had to visit several vendors to find the small river rock (""Chatahoochee rock"") that matched the existing pool decking surface, and we can't believe how close the new sections match the existing sections! Thorough cleanup when they finished...couldn't be happier with the final results.

Love that we were able to design exactly what we needed for size, depth, seats, color, ect. It was great working with Michael, the owner. Our pool looks amazing and has now been in for a few years.

We've used Longhorn Pool Service to maintain our pool and hot tub for over 10 years. Weve never had anything except excellent service from them. We recently needed a repair on our hot tub and we needed it quickly. They jumped on it and had it up and running again within two days. We would definitely recommend Longhorn Pool Service to maintain or service your pool.

Longhorn continues to provide my pool service every week and to handle repairs as they come up. I haven't had any problems with the re-surface from last year, and am extremely pleased with their reliability and responsiveness.

Longhorn pools: Kept our pool really clear this summer.
That being said, they also attached the pool sweeper into our bank account and put the power to MAX - we cannot believe how much they charged for service.
Poor communication compounds this problem - Every week the technician leaves a carbon copy of their work tasks under the door mat - but with no dollar amounts. No idea what they are charging each week until the monthly bill arrives. Add to that a lady who can get downright rude in communication via email or phone and we are leaving them behind. Forget it.
They took our recently refurbished pool sweeper and returned it 'fixed' with a $100 charge and no indication of what they did or why they did it. It was not broken to begin with.

Longhorn Pool Service is by far the best pool service company in Austin. I have used them for pool re plaster to equipment repair and their staff is competent, caring, and reasonably priced. I had a recent need for service on a short term notice and Rebecca re worked the service schedule to fit me in. I highly recommend Longhorn Pool service to anyone. Bob in Round Rock
