What our customers are saying
This is the review I just left on Google: I recently needed a specialty paint that was not easy to find. I found it at TS Pool Supply online. After sending an email to inquire, I got an immediate response. The help I was given that followed was amazing! I worked with Zachary Brown. He was patient, efficient and responded to all of my questions quickly. Then even arranged to get the paint transferred to another store on the same day for easier pick-up. The product, the price, and especially the service, were the best ever!
