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. Let our Renovation Design Specialist revamp your pool with an ""Austintatious Pool Make-Over"". At Austintatious Pools, we design and build new pools using the latest materials and equipment for easy operation. Michael Hurosky, our founder, started a pool cleaning service while studying at the University of Texas, and he continues to lead the company today. The former Longhorn Pool Service, which laid the groundwork for our company, reached a workforce of over 400. Like many, we faced challenges during the pandemic, leading to the closure of Longhorn Pool Service in late August 2021. But from the difficulties, Austintatious Pools arose, specializing in new pool builds and renovations for all varieties of pools and spas. Our design and construction team has successfully built over 300 swimming pools, and we are just getting started. I became a Certified Pool Operator in 1986, a member of NSPI since 1992, a proud APSP member and a ""Certified Building Professional"", and I hold certification as a Texas Electrical Installation Contractor, TDLR #463.

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

The worst experience you can possibly think of having with a service company that charges a premium price. Rebecca who has been there 3 1/2 years is an absolute nightmare to speak to and should not have anything to do with the public. She has no clue how to speak to a customer and is about as smug and rude as they come. Mr. Hursoki really should record the phone calls made from his business so that he could hear first hand how rude this lady is to his customers. The actual service provided was great but due to this one individual I have discontinued service with Longhorn and will make sure to tell everyone one of my friends and family that have pools to do the same. Do yourself a favor and avoid this aggravation all together and find someone else.

We went with Longhorn Pools to replaster our pool and the deck around the pool. They did a reasonable job on the pool walls but the resurfacing of the deck had areas where anyone could trip. We had specifically asked Peggy the salesperrson and she assured us this would not happen. They would not respond to our multiple calls to fix it and would not come out to look at it. Finally we disputed the entire job with AMEX and they still would not come out to look at it or discuss it with us. When we finally reached Peggy she said ""you already got more than you paid for!!"". Verry arrogant!! The owner was supposed to call us and come out to see and discuss, but never did. Everyone we spoke with that knew Longhorn Pools told us they do the work quickly but NEVER follow up. My advice: buyer BEWARE!! Work with them at your own risk and peril. I would NOT recommend them, to anyone.
