Todd Emmerson

Fiberglass Pool Owner in Vernon Hills, IL Recommends Signature Pools

Signature Pools - 3D Pool Plan

April 2010

In the Spring of 2009, we installed a fiberglass pool designed and built by Signature Pools. We moved from Los Angeles to Chicago several years ago. Our home in Los Angeles had a beautiful pool which served as a family gathering destination. Our children literally grew up in that pool and we missed having it terribly. After we moved to Chicago we tried in vain to recreate that family experience – at one point we installed a spa, but it was never the same. And now that our older children have grown, we have adopted two young children. Our younger children spent the entire summer in our new pool last year! We know in our hearts that we have finally recaptured that special focal point for our family.

Before we installed our pool, we researched several companies and types of pools. We selected a fiberglass shell because of its durability, beauty and ability to withstand the elements. During the proposal process, Todd Emmerson – Signature’ Sales Manager – was by far the most helpful to us as we considered various designs, styles and sizes. The Company and its staff were incredibly professional and helpful throughout the entire process – from design through permitting, construction and set up. The project was done on time and within budget. And Signature was great at communicating with us all through the entire process.

Signature Pools - Finished Project

The actual construction went very smooth and much quicker than I had anticipated. One thing that caught me by surprise was the toll the installation took on our yard. I knew the yard would get torn up, but until you experience it firsthand you are not prepared. Regardless, Signatures’ crew was extremely careful, and the safety of my family was paramount to them. They also did an outstanding job cleaning up at the end of each day and made sure to put things back to its original state as much as possible upon completion.

Once the pool was installed, Jim Gavula spent a great deal of time teaching us how the equipment worked and how to care for our new pool. We called Jim several times with a lot of questions and he was always patient and very helpful.

Signature Pools and its staff were phenomenal! We love our new pool and expect to get many years of enjoyment from it with our children – and hopefully our grandchildren at some point in the future.

Very Truly Yours,

Fiberglass Pool - Roman 23

Spring of 2010

After spending an afternoon with Todd Emmerson (Sales & Design Manager) and going over all the many questions and options it was a very easy choice to move forward with Signature Pools. That was 4 years ago.

When I initially started to look at company options I was not going to be fooled by fancy marketing or a big name company. I was diligent in my approach and decision making. Not only did we want a specific plan/layout for our backyard but also specific color and design of acid washed concrete. I also wanted a company that cared about customer service and I have received that in spades from Tom McNelis (owner), Todd Emmerson, and the rest of the staff at Signature Pools.

Our swimming pool has been so low maintenance and has turned out to be something both fun and valuable for our whole family. Truthfully, Signature Pools has gone out of their way and continues to this day to make sure that we have a positive experience.

If you would like more information about my experiences please feel free to contact me at the numbers listed below.

Another Fiberglass Pool Owner in Illinois Recommends Signature Pools

Todd Emmerson · Mar 16, 2010 ·

Fall of 2009

This past June one of the best things happened. I put in a fiberglass pool by Signature Pools. I have wanted a pool for a very long time and had done a lot of research on the type of pool I wanted. Once I decided it was going to be a fiberglass pool then it was a matter of finding the very best company to build it. After talking with several companies Signature Pools won my vote due to their knowledge, experience, confidence in their pools, and their consideration for my concerns. Todd Emmerson (Sales Manager) was awesome during the purchasing and planning phase. He listened very closely to my ideas and what we were looking for in the pool as part of the landscape plan and put it together and made it happen. The 3D computer program they used was unbelievable – it showed me exactly what my new pool would look like with our existing house and landscaping. Todd also did not just sell the pool and disappear. He was still available when needed to answer my questions.

Once the pool arrived and the crew started it was unbelievable how quickly things happened. Tom McNelis (President) and the whole crew are the greatest guys. Our yard is very important to us and tearing it up was very stressful but the guys are so good at what they do installing these pools that the mess was minimal. The guys really went the extra mile to help fix the mess that was made due to the three inches of rain we had three days prior to the start of construction. The process was so quick that within four hours the pool was filling with water and within twenty four hours the concrete decking around the pool was finished and most everything was ready to go. Within a few days Jim Gavula (Permit and Job Coordinator) had the pool crystal clear and swim ready. I could not have been more pleased with everyone on the Signature Pools team!

With the salt water system my pool has basically no maintenance. I love telling people who say pools are so much work – Not Mine! Just some vacuuming and water testing is all the work the pool has caused – little to none. Even if we cannot get in the pool just sitting by it is such a great experience. Our yard is back to normal and we now have the luxury of a pool in our own private yard. I don’t for one second regret any part of putting in a fiberglass saltwater pool and have told many people it’s the only way to go and that Signature Pools is the best at what they do!

Thanks So Much Guys!

Sincerely,

Heather Tesdal

A beautiful in ground pool in Geneva, IL

Dear Mr. McNelis,

It took me almost three years to make a decision on a backyard pool. I met Todd Emmerson in August of 2006 about halfway into this decision. As you know, there are many choices a consumer has when it comes to back yard pools. It took me the first year just deciding on whether to go with a built in fiberglass pool. I looked at all types and discovered fiberglass was the easiest of all to maintain and operate.

Back in August 2006, Todd was very professional giving me different ideas that would work in my backyard. My only regret is that it took me so long to decide.

In February 2008 I contacted Todd again and told him that I reached a decision. Signature Pools was the company that I would hire to install my fiberglass pool. We decided on a kidney shaped pool that fit our backyard. Todd Even offered to stop by and spray paint the outline of the pool to give us an idea of how it would look in the backyard. What an eye opening experience that was. The pool that we chose was not quite the right one for our situation. Todd immediately made a recommendation and painted that outline in the yard. What a difference that made. We were able to get the right pool at the right price.

The installation was quick and easy. Within two days the pool was full of water and concrete was ready to be poured. We officially opened the pool on Memorial weekend. The weather was great and the pool was heated to a comfortable 85 degrees. The kids have been in it ever since. Not a day went passed this summer without a pool full of friends and family having a great time.

I will never regret purchasing a fiberglass pool from Signature Pools. Todd Emmerson (sales manager) and Jim Gavula (permit and job coordinator) made the whole process as easy as possible. But I guess the biggest surprise was to see you, the President and owner of the company, out there working the machinery that very first day. You and your team gave my family and me a great summer in 2008 and for many years to come!

Thanks again for all your help!
