The green-pool rescuer — five separate accounts of swamps turned swimmable, including one a pool store said had to be drained, converted to crystal blue in two days instead.
Where it stands
What sets them apart on the signals Vesta can verify — public records, manufacturer credentials, and a deep read of review history, not a paid placement.
Leak detection & repair
Diagnoses and fixes underground and equipment leaks other pool companies we track have left unresolved.
Green-pool recovery
One of the few pool companies we track known for rescuing a neglected or green pool rather than recommending a drain-and-restart.
What homeowners say
18 public reviews on record
Forty Five's record is organized around one repeated miracle: the inherited or neglected pool that looks like a swamp, which Laurindo answers a Sunday call about, sees that afternoon, and turns crystal blue within days — five separate accounts tell this story, including one where a pool store's verdict was drain-it-and-start-over and he cleared the chemistry in two days instead. Around the rescues sits a solid service book: weekly customers who left bigger Monroe-area companies and report a cleaner pool for less money, closings that end with everything stored away, a leaking pool fixed by replacing both return lines. He comes back to check his own work until it holds — several accounts mention the unprompted follow-up visits.

What to check before you hire
Vesta’s plain checklist for pool pros. General guidance about the trade — not a claim about this business.
Confirm CT registration & insurance
Pool construction and major renovation is home-improvement work — the firm should hold an active Connecticut Home Improvement Contractor registration and carry liability coverage. Ask to see both before signing.
Get permits and the C-of-O in writing
Unpermitted or incomplete-permit pool builds surface at home sale, sometimes years later, and can block a closing. Ask who files the permit, get the certificate of occupancy in the contract, and confirm it before final payment.
Pin down the build type and scope
Gunite, fiberglass, and vinyl liner pools differ sharply in cost, timeline, and what a renovation later requires. Get the exact spec, decking and coping scope, and equipment brand in writing — not just "a new pool."
Ask what a season of service actually costs
A weekly-maintenance quote often excludes chemicals, opening, and closing. Ask what is included in the base price versus billed separately before the season starts.
