Pavilion, Kitchen, Entertaintment Space
We used Hawkins for two prior pool and hardscape projects at our previous homes and chose to use them again for a third time at our current house. This project was a little different as it did not include a pool or spa, but did include a pavilion and outdoor cooking and entertainment space. The build process went flawlessly and any unexpected issues were addressed in a timely manner and priced fairly. We are very happy with the end result. I would highly recommend that you speak with Hawkins for the project you are considering and compare their work and value to any other company in the bay area!

Beyond pleased with our new pool yard
We met with several companies/contractors before selecting Hawkins to construct our new pool. When I met John Rose, I knew immediately that this was a perfect fit. Excellent communication and a dedication to quality work was what sealed the deal for us. Mike and his colleague, Gary, seamlessly managed the day-to-day operations; Rodrigo led the team who completed the beautiful hardscape. We were so pleased with the process that we then hired the sister company, Dana Lund, to complete our landscaping. All the bids were competitive, and we are beyond pleased with our new pool yard.

Professional – Reliable – Excellent work
We absolutely love our new outdoor space! The pool is sparkling clean and beautiful, the pavilion is sturdy and well-built, with an amazing kitchen and outdoor dining and entertaining space and the landscaping is lush and inviting. We spend hours every week enjoying our new backyard, and we know it will be enjoyed by our family and friends for years to come. We highly recommend Hawkins Pools to anyone looking for a pool remodeling, outdoor pavilion construction, or landscape design company. They are professional, reliable, and do excellent work.

Highly Recommended
We used Hawkins for a new pool/spa, artificial turf, tiled patio and outdoor kitchen. Everything turned out great. In the beginning we worked with Jeff on the design. He did a good job understanding our tastes and the things we wanted out of the project then put together a good design given our smaller odd shaped yard. Once the project got going it was great working with the project managers Mike and Gary. They were both on site often and always available for questions, explaining what was going on. Overall we’re super happy with how it all turned out and would highly recommend Hawkins.

We chose Hawkins to build our dream pool
After much research and consideration of several different pool companies, we chose Hawkins to build our dream pool and we couldn’t be happier with the result. Our project was completed in October of 2024.
Jeff, the designer, truly has a gift for pool and landscape design. We spent a lot of time with Jeff up front deciding on the pool design, layout and finish and that investment paid off. After much back and forth, we ended up going with every one of Jeff’s material suggestions and I’m so glad we did.
During the construction process, Gary, our project manager, was always available for questions and responded to items that didn’t seem quite right. We had an issue with the spa bench being too high, so we talked to Gary and he had the gunite company come back out to fix it. In the process, John Rose, the owner of the company, came by to see how the project was going and he made a great suggestion to leave half the bench at the higher height so that there would be two levels. I’m so glad we did this because it makes the spa more usable for kids and shorter adults. The masons that Hawkins subcontracts with are true artisans – we had a lot of stonework between the spa overflow and waterfall and they were meticulous in their work. They also custom pour the pool coping which came out perfect. We had them custom pour matching coping for a small wall and fire pit in another part of the yard.
Hawkins uses their landscape division, Dana Lund Landscaping, for the pool deck and landscaping work. We had them install a paver patio around the pool. Quality of the paver installation was great, and when we found a spot that wasn’t draining properly when it started raining a few months after our pool was finished, Dana Lund sent someone out to fix it.
We had a concurrent construction project on the other side of the yard with an entirely different crew. The Hawkins crew and their subcontractors did a great job accommodating the other crew when needed, as well as ensuring the 2 paver patios met up perfectly. It all turned out great and we are so glad we chose a reputable company like Hawkins to build our dream pool!

Fantastic Final Outcome for Our Family
Two years ago we made the decision to have our existing old pool removed in order to remodel the back yard to include a new pool that would incorporate a built-in automatic safety cover (young grandkids). We shopped around and were nothing but pleased that we selected Hawkins as our swimming pool contractor for this project. The design phase was easy, with Jeff offering good suggestions while listening to our concerns. We had extensive hardscape and landscape work done. When there was a delay in getting the travertine that we needed, John was diligent in pursuing this and solving the problem. We had no complaints about anyone involved in the project–all were professional, pleasant, and responsive. The final outcome was fantastic, perfect for our family’s needs. We’ve gotten so many compliments. We also use Hawkins for our weekly pool maintenance.
We are very satisfied customers and highly recommend them.

Pool, Fire Pit, Outdoor Kitchen
We did a complete remodel of our yard. We added a pool, fire pit area, and outdoor kitchen. Everyone on their team was great to work with. Their price was a little more than other quotes but we knew we were working with a reputable company and we had some complex situations in our yard so we wanted it to be done right the first time around. We paid in phases as work was completed which was reassuring as it ensured the work was done and any issues that might needed to be addressed. They would answer any questions we had throughout the process. Our family is thrilled with how everything turned out and excited to be using our backyard space.

Highest Quality Service & Results
We had an outstanding experience with Hawkins – we did a complete backyard remodel, including design. They made it easy for us by coordinating everything, and we had confidence throughout that we were getting the highest quality service and results. The team was really responsive, and took care of all requests, big and small. They also kept us notified regarding changes in schedule (due to rain) – we always felt up-to-date and informed. I would absolutely recommend Hawkins!

Full hardscape & pool remodel
Hawkins Pools (aka Hawkins Enterprises) is literally THE Premiere backyard remodel company in the entire region. From start to finish of our large backyard remodel, Brent and Jeff (amazing designer) oversaw the implementation of our dream yard! This was a full hardscape remodel (travertine, firepit, outdoor kitchen) and pool remodel (resurface, repair, update everything)… and we have been nothing but impressed with their skill, professionalism and communication skills. The subcontractors they use are on point and extremely skilled. Anyone who sees our yard (and post COVID vaccinations more and more will) are in awe of the transformation Hawkins has pulled off! Even during COVID when the city dragged their feet on approvals/inspections etc… yes it took about 6 months, but it was all worth it! We literally can’t look out the window or walk outside without smiling… thanks again guys!!!!

From design to construction to pool service
From design to project management to construction, we are glad we chose Hawkins. They are very professional, communicate openly and honestly about status and did an absolute sensational job. Our backyard feels like resort spa. Thank you to the entire team. We hired their monthly servicing team to care for our new pool. Great job and thank you for treating our project like it was the most important thing you were working on. We love our new backyard!

Recommend Hawkins Pools without hesitation
After onsite evaluation with a handful of swimming pool construction companies, we decided to go with Hawkins, which turned out to be a very good choice. The work they did certainly is both of high quality and meticulousness.
Their service team is fantastic too especially Gus who answered our questions always timely. We thus decided to have them maintain and service our pool weekly.
Anyway, I recommend them without reservation, and you will get a beautiful pool at the end. What’s not to like?

On-time, On-budget
When we put in our swimming pool, we went through a detailed vetting process and evaluated 5 swimming pool contractors around design, capability, attention to detail and reputation. Hawkins Pools quickly surfaced as the leader — they were more concerned about our swimming pool project rather than what the other swimming pool contractors were quoting. At every step, their team far exceeded our expectations and the project was delivered on-time and on-budget project. Three years later, we continue to use Hawkins Pools for our monthly swimming pool service and are extremely satisfied with their customer service. See swimming pool designs by Hawkins Pools.

Large scale pool remodeling and the works
Overall we were very happy with the Hawkins team. We did a full large scale pool remodel, new plumbing, coping, decking, lighting, pool equipment, pebbletech, the works. The craftsmanship and final product is fantastic. J
ohn and the team were very responsive to our calls, emails, questions, and any issues that came up along the way.
Now I set my spa to pre-heat on my pool app during my commute home. Good stuff!

Delivered as Promised
John Rose, Mike Baker, and Jeff Jones, and the Hawkins/Dana Lund crew delivered on what was promised. They are responsible, dependable, professional, honest, and kind. They help you make the best design for your needs and esthetic style. They were flexible with our design changes through the process and adaptable during Covid delays. The end product turned out better than expected. We spend more time outside because our our beautiful pavilion. I highly recommend Hawkins Pools for your next outdoor project.
