The Benham’s – Hingham Massachusetts Pool

“Don’t take our word for it,

ask a Hingham MA pool owner themselves!”

Project Location: Hingham, MA

Project Year: 2018

1. What influenced you to have a pool built?

We decided to have a pool built because we wanted our backyard to have an outlet for recreation and relaxation. The swimming pool can provide an area for cardiovascular exercise as well as create a center for family gatherings.

2. What activities does your pool allow you to do?

My entire family loves the water. The pool allows us to entertain with friends.

3. Why did you choose SSG?

We did a lot of homework, we researched on the internet, talked with friends who used SSG as well as their experience with local companies. When we came to SSG, they were the best fit for our family. They had a great reputation and honestly, we had not heard any bad reviews from friends.

4. How was the design process?

We found the design process simple. We selected the pool and options we wanted through a series of categorized choices. They were able to show us visual options for our shapes and sizes and that made it very easy to decide.

5. What was your experience with the employees while building the pool?

I can’t say enough about how pleased we were with all of the employees that arrived at our home during the building process. They were respectful, courteous and considerate people. Each crew held expertise in their area and they worked in a very timely and professional manner.

6. What was your experience with our supervisors and coordinators?

My experience with SSG supervisors and coordinators went way above my expectations. They are easy to deal with and work with you the entire way. They were easy to get ahold of and were very reliable. Each step is carefully planned, and there is a checklist for the entire process. You always knew what was happening next and that kept the project on schedule. The entire pool from start to finish was done in less than two months.

7. What advice would you give to someone considering a pool for their home?

You should consider what’s important to you about your pool and then rate everything based on importance. I highly recommend researching the difference between gunite, vinyl and fiberglass pools – then use that research to decide which one is the best fit for you and your family.

8. Describe SSG using 3 words.

Respectful. Professional. Trustworthy.

SSG would like to thank the Benham family for participating in our Customer Story series. Their project was a very exciting Hingham MA pool to build. We enjoy working with Massachusetts homeowners to build the backyard of their dreams.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT US

Our Work Brings Great Reviews

“They build a gorgeous pool. The finished product is exactly what I wanted. I came very close to working with another vendor as I did not think I could afford a quality Gunite pool. I quickly made the switch as SSG worked with me to customize a pool within my price range. Best decision I made and best pool ever! I am very happy with my decision”

“These folks did a great job building and finishing our pool. We also needed them to move the equipment after adding an outbuilding, which they did on time and on budget and without complaining! The service people are friendly, punctual, and very professional. Overall, an excellent customer experience.”

"The staff at SSG went above and beyond to make this pool happen for us, in the least stressful manner possible, amidst a Pandemic that shut down manufacturers, suppliers, deliveries. They worked outdoors in masks in 90 plus degree weather. They designed and created a beautiful backyard oasis for us. SSG is an exceptional company. They do high quality, gorgeous work, and they stand behind their name. They are a FIVE star company!"

"Couldn’t be happier with the whole service from start to finish. The quality of the work was exceptionally good and you can tell that they approach their work with professionalism and enthusiasm. They pay attention to detail and don’t cut corners. The price for the work was very reasonable and they were always responsive and pleasant to work with. Very happy I went with SSG and will be using them again for any future projects/renovations/openings and closings."

"We worked with SSG Pools for the installation of our gunite pool and deck. We found them wonderful to work with and the pool turned out spectacular. Stunning! It is a wonderful gathering space for our family and friends now. SSG Pools has a wonderful and skilled staff. Through the whole process we were in good hands and the pool they built was the one we dreamed about. I highly recommend this company and also love the lifetime warranty."

"On time and on budget. I have used South Shore over the last 10+ years on 2 pools I have, one at home the other at my vacation home . They repaired a major problems on one pool that other pool companies had been unable to fixed and they completely rebuilt a second pool starting in April and had the job completed and ready to swim by Memorial day. I also use them for weekly service to make sure things run well. In New England you get 3 months to really enjoy your pool why would trust anyone else."

– Paul D. | Weston & Osterville, MA | Houzz Review

"We just had a beautiful gunite pool and deck completed by South Shore Gunite pools and spa last summer. From the very first meeting at our home they understood what we were looking for and made us feel very comfortable with their ability to deliver a beautiful result. Their attention to detail and their ability to connect us with a wonderful landscape architect guided us through the planning and construction phases. Their work crew was well organized, efficient, pleasant and very respectful of our property. It was an amazing process to watch and an amazing result to enjoy. We would be happy to recommend them to anyone looking for a high quality pool company."

– Louis Y. | Orleans, MA | Houzz Review

"SSG was wonderful to work with throughout the pool building process. I anticipated being overwhelmed given that I had never had a pool before, but they helped put my mind at ease with their professionalism and responsiveness to all my needs. Rick (sales) Mark (builder) and Karen (Admin) were outstanding!"

– Michael E. | Pembroke, MA | Houzz Review

"After interviewing 3 pool companies, we chose South Shore Gunite based on their expertise, their willingness to guide us through the process, and their great communication. We chose a filtration system recommended by them that uses an ozonator. Love our pool. Very happy with every step of the way."
