Testimonials

Mr Gary Barnes

I'm a director of one of the UK's largest contractors and I wish all our suppliers were as good as 1st Direct Pools. Brilliant technical advice from Simon and Louis and next day delivery on all the parts from stock. Go to these guys first and you won't be disappointed.

Mr Keith Riley

I was very pleased with the service and when I thought I had ordered the wrong thing I was given the correct advice. You did not try to sell me something I didn’t need – that's important if you want me to come back again another time.

Mr Arif Uddin

I have purchased from this company twice in the last 6 months and have no hesitation whatsoever in highly recommending them for great customer service, product range and prices. There’s no hard sell just easily understood, sound advice from knowledgeable, friendly and helpful staff. Very competitive prices with orders and fast delivery efficiently completed. I will definitely be using them again. 1st Direct Pools are 1st class!

Mrs Peggy Gentle

Ordered Filter Wednesday evening, arrived Friday.
What wonderful service.

Mr Robert Bourne

less than 24 hours after my order (which was after your cut-off for next day delivery) my pool is up and running again with a new, reasonably priced pump. Polite and professional staff. Pleasure to do business with you.

Mrs Donna Townsend

Just wanted to pass on my thanks for superb service given with comm’s and sorting a minor problem so quickly with no fuss.

Thanks to the “team” especially Andrew, for the handling and resolution of my problem. 1st class service and old fashioned loyalty to the customer. Highly recommended.

Mr Jon Scobie

Why didn’t I find your company when I bought my house with a pool? Covers everything, is best price price by far compared to all the rip off companies out there and it was a pleasure speaking to your technical staff about chlorinators and UV systems. I’ll definitely be back to buy from here!

Mr Craig Matthews

Can’t praise the staff enough at 1st Direct Pools. I run a small swimming pool maintenance company and don’t have the time or money to spend sorting issues with delivery and faults. The team at 1st Direct Pools have sorted any problems promptly, delivered on time (with a friendly delivery guy) have been really professional, friendly and a plesure to deal with. Can’t praise the team enough. Special mention to Francesca who dealt with a technical problem I had with a heater.

Prof Rae Binstead

I only use a computer for my work programmes, so I am not computer literate.
I had a problem with my swimming pool and needed advise as well as replacement parts and chemicals. I found it extremly easy to find most of my answers on your website and ordered all the parts I needed, the prices amazed me, they are so cheap and the speed of the delivery was amazing. I also phoned for further advise and the help I received from the girls and the amount of technical knowledge they have is unbelievable. I will only use your company for all my pool needs in the future and I have reccomended you to all my pool owning colleagues. Well done!

Mrs J Horton

I hate shopping online, but I found your site and and called the freephone number for advice. Your staff could not have been more helpful and talked me through each product and how I could buy online. I found this to be such a positive experience I now feel confident in buying from 1st Direct Pools on my own, I’ve even managed to teach my husband!

Miss Tracey Doyle

I wanted to express my thanks at the absolutely fabulous service received today. The team were very patient at all my questions and despite me having no knowledge of the product I was purchasing the team answered my queries without making me feel stupid and even offered advice for areas I hadn’t considered. I wouldn’t hesitate to tell friends about this company.

Mrs Lynne

I am vey impressed with your site, only yeterday I was reading your winterising comments, as I am a first season pool owner I was very grateful for the information. I have only purchased once from yourselves but when I need more supplies I will not hesistate to come back. All information is easily acceptable.
