I would like to express my gratitude and appreciation on the renovation of my pool and installation and relocation of my new spa. I am so pleased with the pool and the spa which looks great and is functioning perfectly. You were always available, helpful and answered any questions that I had. Your new design and all your suggestions were excellent and just what I wanted. Your crew was outstanding. The work was very professional and done in a timely manner. It was evident that the work was perfect due to your direction, experience and guidance. It was a pleasure to work with you. I would highly recommend you and your crew to anyone that would need your services. Thanks so much.
Marie Karmelich – Rancho Palos Verdes, CA
“I used to be a building inspector in the Palos Verdes Peninsula area, so when it came time to build my own pool it was an easy decision to use Horusicky. I didn’t even bother to entertain any other bids as I’d seen it all up there. Beware there are a lot of half hearted companies willing to do work on the cheap! I can guarantee you that it is always more expensive to go that route! It’s been six years since they’ve built my pool and it’s definitely been one of my best purchases. Horusicky Construction really took care of me (and continues to do so) and that’s what counts! The work quality and service is second to none, so if you want it done right this is who to use.”
Mike Smith – Torrance, CA
“Horusicky Construction turned my basic backyard pool into a beautiful resort-style oasis. From my first meeting with Mike Horusicky I had a good feeling. We talked about my expectations, budget and timing. Mike and his team did exactly what they promised.” “Utilizing the footprint of the existing pool as a starting point, we then worked the design process together to ensure that the final product was exactly what I wanted. Mike educated me on cost effective, energy efficient, yet state of the art, pool equipment, water features, surface materials, and lighting. Beyond the pool and jacuzzi, Mike built a BBQ, fountains, fire pit and garden walls. All stone work was hand cut, on-site. Horusicky Construction included landscape services and landscape lighting to complete the project.” “The backyard has become a focal point of my home. Whether dining alfresco or relaxing by the pool it has increased the enjoyment and value of my home.” “When friends come to visit they all comment on how nice it must be to “live in a resort“.
Doreen Leeds – Pacific Palisades
“Mike Horusicky Construction who was incredible, fast, perfect work, easy to work with, no hidden costs … cannot say enough since most of my contractor experiences are not so good this one with the pool was terrific.”
Rich Bornstein – Rolling Hills Estates
“Mike and his team were wonderful. They were on budget and on time for our project! We are thrilled with the pool and hardscape and highly recommend Horusicky Pools Inc.”
Nicole Ryan – Pacific Palisades
“This is the third time I have used Horusicky Construction. This latest project was a small pool, patio, and trellis. Although I am not a big client compared to some of the other projects, I was treated as though I was their most important customer. The work is top notch. They came in on budget and time, and always had a site manager on the property to answer my questions. My house was left as clean as when they first arrived, and they even threw in some personal touches that really made the whole project shine. This was the biggest financial investment I have made besides the purchase of my home, and I am so glad that Mike and his crew made sure I was taken care of, even though my project was nowhere near some of the other work they do. I would have no concerns using them again, and can’t think of any reason why I would go with someone else.”
Steven Gyepes – Culver City
I had a massive project to design and build that been our dream for years for our hillside view home – involving a complete redo of every aspect of my property beyond the house itself, including: rebuilding our pool to include wading areas, fountains and pebble tec, a new spa, hardscape and landscape front, side and back, an outdoor stone fireplace, fire pit, waterfall and stone/granite outdoor kitchen, a gigantic outdoor patio enclosure, outdoor shower and storage shed and a side-yard terraced garden. The most complex part and incredible structural feat was pushing out our backyard to add over 2000 square feet, using caissons, and building a guest suite and equipment room below the extended yard.
“Horusicky Construction was one of only two contractors I could find that had a clue how to do the job. I chose Horusicky and could not be more pleased. They did a beautiful job on every aspect of this project. They were super-competent technically and from an engineering standpoint, while demonstrating creativity and artistry on the designs they made come to life. I could not be more pleased with our experience from start to finish. And their work has stood the test of time, we have had no major problems. And they have been fantastic on taking care of little things that needed attention. They treat us like a new customer, even though the project was completed in 2009.”
“I highly recommend Horusicky for simple or very complex projects that involve structural work, concrete, masonry, stonework and pools. They are the best!!”
Steven Abraham – Pacific Palisades
“Mike Horusicky is by far the best contractor we’ve ever hired, and we’ve done a lot of projects on our house. From the time we first met him, when he came out to bid our job, to even after our pool and landscaping were done, he has always been professional, trustworthy, helpful, and responsive. We appreciate that he never gave us the hard sell, but let us choose what we wanted to do, refining that with his own unique experience and expertise.”
“He was always on top of our job and responded quickly to phone calls and messages–a rarity in this industry. Our job proceeded like clockwork and the results exceeded all expectations. He didn’t allow us to make any mistakes, and to this day continues to help us in the service and maintenance of our pool.”
Brian Romias – Manhattan Beach
“Mike transformed our backyard from a dump into an amazing paradise with a gorgeous pool and spa, flowing waterfalls, and a waterslide! Mike was recommended to us by the Palos Verdes Art Jury & Home Owners’ Association. They told us he does beautiful and meticulous work. Right when we met with Mike we knew he would do a good job. He looked at our backyard and came up with some really great ideas. He visualized the perfect layout for the pool, waterfalls, and hardscape. Mike and his workers then delivered exactly what was promised. Now everyone who sees our backyard is amazed by the transformation. We are truly lucky to have selected Mike to do the job. He is not only an excellent communicator who promptly returns each and every call and email, but he is also a fabulous worker. His work is quality and made to last forever!”
Jennifer Bobb, Palos Verdes Estates, CA
“After interviewing practically every pool contractor in southern California I know I made a wise decision in choosing Horusicky Pools. My initial decision was based on Mike Horusicky’s honesty and straight forward attitude.”
“After the pool construction began I was amazed to find out I was working with a European family with three generations of pool building experience. An expert stone cutter from Europe carefully place stone, so the many fossils could be seen once the deck was complete around the pool.”
“Mike Horusicky and his father Mike Sr. were on the construction site managing the project daily until completion. The work never stopped until the job was done. Our yard was cleaned at the end of every work day.”
“The pool equipment has been easy to understand because Mike has personally trained me on the various functions. Any adjustment necessary are still being made by Mike after two years.”
“Horusicky Pools team is customer oriented with great follow up. They stand behind their work and the products they use. Today they still service my pool and I rely on them for anything related to my pool.”
“I recommend speaking with Mike Horusicky to start your pool construction.”
Burt M. Arnold – Rolling Hills Estates
“About eight weeks before our wedding, we decided to have our pool and deck remodeled. We contacted Mike and explained that we wanted to have the project completed before our wedding guests arrived from out-of-state. Mike assured us he could get the job done with ample time to spare and he and his incredible crew delivered. Mike made valuable suggestions regarding the materials we should use for the both the pool and the deck. To say we are ecstatic with the result would be an understatement. We can’t wait to show-off our new backyard to all our family members who are coming to our wedding. Thank you Mike and thank you to your crew for their fantastic work.”
Peter Williamson
Woodland Hills
“Mike Horusicky and his crew did an incredible job on our swimming pool and backyard. Mike not only assisted us in overcoming major issues with the City which threatened whether or not we would even get a swimming pool, but also expedited the entire process in a manner so our family got to enjoy the pool and new backyard before summer was over and school started.”
“Mike and his staff were always professional and courteous and did a very high quality work both on the pool and the surrounding hardscape which involved a lot of stone and cement work. During the process Mike was always available to discuss any concern or question that came up and was always there to review the numbers or explain exactly the cost of any improvement before we signed off and or agreed to include it in the plan. I had always heard that installing a swimming pool would take longer and cost more than originally planned but that was not at all the case we had with Mike Horusicky Pools.”
“We love our pool and new backyard and have Mike and his team to thank for it. Overall it was a very straightforward and positive experience and we would recommend Mike and his company to anyone who wanted to install a new swimming pool or do any stone or hardscape improvements.”
Bo Kelly, Palos Verdes
“We waited three years to finally pull the trigger on our new pool and pool house with loft and bathroom. Then, we took months deciding on a contractor. We did a background search on each pool contractor and only two passed our screening. Finally, we went with our gut and picked Horusicky. It was the perfect choice! Mike even handled all of my 8:00pm text message questions. We were guided through the whole process expertly. Now, years later, we wish we had built it when we first thought about it.”
“We will only recommend Horusicky!”
Dave & Leslie (Manhattan Beach)
“We would like to thank Mike Horusicky and his entire crew for the excellence in craftsmanship, design, professionalism and responsiveness before, during and after our pool/spa/patio project was complete.”
“My husband and I went through 2 months of interviewing potential pool contractors (6 well known contractors to be exact) and we had pretty much decided there would be no pool built in our yard. No one wanted to build the pool where we wanted it, use the materials that we wanted to use or build it how we wanted it to look. Granted, we have a difficult site, narrow side entrances that would challenge the best bobcat operators, a daunting hillside (where the pool was to be set into) that required engineering a retaining wall and a mature landscape that had to be preserved. We even had one contractor say that if he damaged the house, he would bid the job out once the pool was finished!”
“Then Mike came over……..”
“After our first meeting, we finally felt good about taking on such a large project. When Mike said at the end of our meeting, “I see it built”, that was it – Mike had the job. He listened to our wants, entertained our wish list and responded to every “what if” that we threw at him. Mike guided us through overall design, stone selection, pebble tec colors and tile options with ease.”
“Mike furnished a comprehensive bid – all inclusive; unlike others who had pages of additional charges to wade through. He uses only the best equipment which will perform well into the future.”
“The crew was respectful of our surrounding landscape and cleaned up their work area daily. We now have a gorgeous pool and spa that we will enjoy for many years to come.”
“Mike has given us a paradise that we marvel at when we are in the yard. It is beautiful!”
“Thank you Mike!”

Thank you for the training session last night. The spa and pool worked out perfectly today for my Boss and his family!! The kids loved it. We didn’t realize that we created another diving board by adding the spa to the pool, but it worked perfectly for them. The step under the waterfall was splendid! Just what I wanted. Also, the kids had us keep the fountain on the whole time they were in the spa. They loved it.
We will have many hours of enjoyment with this pool/spa.
Thanks again.
Terry & Bill Griggs – Rolling Hills Estates
“This company has THE most creative and fair business practice!!!! We were amazed at the myriad of choices and solutions Mike provided for our pool and spa. Use this company!!!”
Jolie K. – Sherman Oaks, CA
“My wife and I have been through several construction projects including building two new homes. We have worked with many contractors and building professionals and Mike Horusicky ranks with the best we have ever worked with. In 2012 Mike transformed our backyard to an ideal outdoor living space. The project included a new pool, outdoor kitchen and fireplace. His planning, budgeting, timeliness and workmanship were all top notch.”
“I would recommend mike to anyone and would be happy to show our project as a reference.”
Ken Aster – Palos Verdes Estates

“Mike Horusicky and his crew are very experienced and trustworthy contractors with installation of pools and spas. He installed our new pool and spa a couple of years back, on schedule and on our agreed upon cost. He even threw in extras! Mike takes great pride in his work and in the reputation of his company. When minor issues arose after completion of the job, Mike immediately responded to my phone call and sent his team over to correct the issues.”
“My wife and I highly recommend Horusicky Pools to anyone considering installation of a new pool or refurbishing an old one!”
Leo and Susan Schneider – Rancho Palos Verdes
“I recently had the pleasure to work with Horusicky Construction on a project in Brentwood. They do exceptional stone and concrete work. You give Mike the concept of what needs to done and his probably 40 years experience puts your vision/need into reality. He shows up on time, cleans up after himself, works with integrity, and follows through on his commitments.”
Judi Astrachan Doling

“Mike and his crew turned our backyard into a resort… We never have to go to Palm Springs again. Mike Horusicky and his team were by far the most competent and professional contractors we worked with. They showed up each day as planned, gave us a great value for money on the stone work they did and they always cleaned up and left the site looking great. Belinda was so happy with the wonderful job they did she even cooked the crew breakfast…”
Richard and Belinda Swendsen, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA
“I recently contracted with Horusicky Construction to build a pool at my property in Pacific Palisades. The project was started on the day Mike Horusicky said it would be and it was finished 2 days prior to when he said it would be. During the project Mike was always available if I had any questions, and was extremely helpful in choosing finishes. I am so happy with our pool and have no reservations in recommending Horusicky Construction to anyone.“
Joseph O’Sullivan, Pacific Palisades, CA.
“Most consider “construction projects” and “seamless” to be mutually exclusive terms. Mike Horusicky AND HIS TEAM built a beautiful INDOOR fireplace for us, and it was a SEAMLESS EXPERIENCE. We highly recommend Mike”
Charlie and Joanne Peterson, Palos Verdes Estates, CA
“I was extremely pleased with the stone work that Horusicky Construction performed at my home. The service, quality, and time it took to complete the work was excellent. I will use them again when the time comes to re-do my driveway, and I’m very satisfied with the patio that they built in my back yard.”
Steven Gyepes, Culver City, CA
“When we finally decided to build a pool, we had several contractors to choose from. From the first day of the bidding process, we knew Mike was our man. We had friends in the area that took six months to build a pool with great drama. Ours took less than two months. He takes great pride in his work and was always on top of the project. If you want the highest quality pool built in an acceptable amount of time, and don’t want to lift a finger or worry about the project. HIRE MIKE”
Larry Hoyne, Rolling Hills Estates, CA
“Over the past 20 years Horusicky Construction has done numerous jobs at our house, from a killer outdoor fireplace to a brick shell to house our barbeque and patio work. They brought old world craftsmanship and artistic designs to every project, along with reasonable prices and timely completion of the job. I wouldn’t even entertain anyone else to do brickwork; they’re the best!”
Jacki and David Horwitz, Pacific Palisades, CA
“My family would like to say thank you to Horusicky Construction. Their quality work and professionalism made our back yard everything we wished for. There was never a time that I worried about the quality and the time it took to complete this project. Mike and his professional crew were always so courteous and finished the project on schedule. Again thanks for such a awesome job!!!!! “
“I highly recommend Horusicky Construction.”
The Waltons, Palos Verdes Peninsula, CA
“I had brick and concrete work done at my home by Horusicky Construction. I had just remodeled my home and found that my previous work was substandard. My concrete had to be demolished on both my front and back porches without causing damage to newly installed railings and posts. Horusicky Construction did an excellent job. They were professional, responsible and completely reliable. I am very happy with the work done by them. They know what they are doing and were able to answer all my questions and even give me design advice. They would be the first person on my list to refer.”
Dianne Geraghty, Santa Monica, CA
“Horusicky Construction has done all the cement and stone work at my home over the years. They were recommended by a friend and I would gladly recommend them. They are dependable, experienced, do a beautiful job and are always just a phone call away.“
Jill Allen, Pacific Palisades, CA
“I have hired Mike to build my pool and install hardscape in my backyard and around my house. He did an excellent job and always showed up on time. Furthermore, he never surprised me with an unforeseen bill. What he asked for in the beginning was what he asked for at the end.”
“I have had plenty of experience with contractors, specifically masonry contractors, and of the 10 or so that I have hired in the past, Mike is definitely the best.”
“I have and will continue to refer him to as many people as possible. Please do not hesitate to use me as a reference.“
Steve Chelebian, Palos Verdes Estates, CA
“Our family had been thinking of putting a pool in for many years. Although we had the desire, we were troubled by the reputation and complaints we heard about pool contractors. We found it amazingly difficult to find anyone whom was happy with their experience! The only name which was highly spoken of was Mike Horusicky. We set a meeting at the house to discuss the proposed addition of the pool, our expectations and to discuss what we should expect.”
“We instantly liked Mike and were impressed with his knowledge and professionalism.“
“We had our pool and concrete work done and we are thrilled. The entire process was painless and exactly as promised.“
“Mike told us we would be swimming in 6-8 weeks and we were swimming in 5 weeks and 5 days! We can recommend Horusicky pools to anyone and know they will share our feelings on what a great group of experts Mike and his company are. Everyone who was involved in our project was a delight to deal with and took special care working at our home.”
“Thank you Mike and crew! Great Job!!”
The Tessler Family, Palos Verdes Estates, CA
“We have known and worked with Mike Horusicky for years and we believe he represents the finest of contractors. We first hired Mike to save us from a bad experience with a contractor who we had to let go one week into the job.”
“Mike came in and gave us an estimate, promptly began work, and beautifully installed flagstone in two large outdoor living areas. His job was completed within his original estimate and within his original time frame. He closely managed our job site and always kept us informed. When we made changes, he provided an estimate on the cost so that we always had a clear understanding of exactly how much money we were spending. There were no surprises at the end.”
“Since then, Mike has come back to install more flagstone, build fountains, driveways and he also managed the installation of our pool. He was hired to do the deck around the pool but stepped up to the plate to do far more than that by ensuring that the entire project went smoothly. We are proud to be one of Mike’s first PV pools!”
“We have recommended Mike to many friends and neighbors, all of whom have now worked with him and share our appreciation for his quality work, his work ethic, and his professionalism. We’ve noticed that Mike keeps the same hard-working and professional crew which we believe is a great testament to him as a person and an employer.”
“We are always happy to provide a recommendation for Mike and invite prospective clients to view his work on our property.”
Phil and Julia Ambrose, Rolling Hills Estates, CA
“From the first meeting with Mike Horusicky, I knew our pool project was in good hands. Mike was professional and thorough in explaining all of the possibilities available, and offered advice as to how best to create the pool to maximize our space and enjoyment. At the same time, Mike suggested creative ways to minimize the effort required to maintain and manage our completed pool.”
“Mike and his entire team were prompt and proficient in the construction as well as in managing the required permits and approvals required by City laws and ordinances. Most impressive, the work began and finished on schedule and the project completed within the original projected budget.”
“We have been enjoying our beautiful pool and spa for two years now. It is low-maintenance and adds a special feel to our backyard. I am happy to recommend Horusicky Construction and welcome any questions.”
Susie Lines, Palos Verdes Estates, CA
“Nancy and I wanted to thank you again for the fabulous job done on our pool, or better yet mini resort! We still can’t get over that our back yard was completely transposed within three short months!
Having family in the construction business, I would have never imagined that this could be done, nor can I fathom that you were always available to answer any question and on the job site daily. Most of all you gave us great insight. Your knowledge with the materials and products were beneficial, as well as your patience and time.”
“People come into our back yard in awe. Every detail from the waterfalls, pool shape, to the hand carved PV Stone is perfect. My wife and I couldn’t be happier, and personally I don’t think we would have something this nice without the Horusicky touch.“
“Mike, you didn’t just create a beautiful pool, but rather a place that will produce many wonderful memories.“
“Thank you again for the magnificent job!“
Jeff & Nancy Perez, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA
“Our experience with Horusicky Construction building our pool, spa and hardscape was exceptional. Although we had some unforeseen issues during our excavation that caused delay, (40 year old septic tank), Mike was in contact with us the entire time. He made sure we had an understanding of every phase until our final inspection. The stone work has admirable detail. The end result is a beautiful yard that family and friends will enjoy with us for many occasions. We are satisfied customers and highly recommend Mike Horusicky Construction.”
“One of the most impressive qualities of Horusicky Construction is their follow-up. I believe they want their customers to be completely satisfied. Regardless of any question we may have, someone from the Horusicky group always returns my phone calls and makes sure our pool is functioning properly. It’s been two years since the installation, and recently Mike Horusicky himself came over to inspect our chlorinator when we had an issue, and then got it replaced by the manufacturer. This company makes my family feel like we are important.”
“Thank you Mr. Horusicky and staff for taking great care of us.“
Sal and Anne Gonzales, Palos Verdes Estates, CA
Where do we begin with the excellence that is Horusicky Construction? First we would like to say ‘thank you’ to the ENTIRE crew. They were absolutely fabulous! When we decided to put in a pool and the masonry that we needed so badly, our policy was to get a number of bids and talk over the various presentations. Even though Mike was one of the first contractors we interviewed, it was clear he and Horusicky Construction were going to be our guys. He answered ALL of our questions and made us feel excited about our new project. He was always accessible to us, no matter what. The crew turned our badly outdated backyard, driveway & walkway (and a special accent to the front of our house) into a masterpiece that we are so proud of. The backyard has a wonderful tropical theme that even EXCEEDED our expectations. The honesty, integrity, professionalism, pride and overall courteous nature of the Horusickys made our experience such a pleasure. Plus, they are so creative. Heck, we can’t wait to add a few more Horusicky unique touches in the future! It was amazing to us that with all the work that we needed done, Mike’s job completion date was just about to the day! Mike has tremendous knowledge and great people skills to go along with his honest nature..”
“We highly encourage ALL reading these testimonials to please contact Mike and feel free to come see the creativity and excellence that Horusicky Construction made possible for us. We are VERY particular about contractors, but Mike and crew have no peer, in our opinion. We actually miss the crew and our day to day interaction with them. Trust a cynic and go with Horusicky Construction; it will be one of the best decisions you will ever make.
“Thank you so much to Mike and the awesome workers for making our dream come true.”
John & Elisa Buda, Rancho Palos Verdes, CA
“We contracted Horusicky Construction for a brick patio in our backyard and were very pleased with the final product. Mike, Andrea and their crew were professional, honest, and personable. The work was of the highest quality, executed on time and for the bid amount that was quoted. And they cared that we were happy and satisfied with the end result. Even though the job was small compared to a pool installation, the customer service and workmanship was equal to a higher profit job.”
“We always try to search out and support smaller family run type businesses because our past experiences have shown that when the customer is more than an invoice number, it usually translates to a reliable, ethical, respectful and professional working relationship and experience. We found this to be indicative of our experience with Horusicky Construction and we would not hesitate to refer Horusicky Construction to anyone.”

“Horusicky Construction did a great job repairing my pool and spa. The stones surrounding the pool and spa that were installed by my previous contractor had to be replaced, and Mike and his team completed the job as-promised. The craftsmanship on the Lompoc stonework was excellent, and Mike had an expansion joint installed where the previous contractor had left the joint out of the design. He quoted one week to complete, and we were swimming in the repaired pool on day 7, just as promised. His prices were competitive and he had good follow-up. I highly recommend their services.”
Tim Traynor – Palos Verdes Peninsula, CA
“Thanks for the wonderful service you provide for us! Whenever we have an issue with any pool/spa equipment, Mike is always quick to respond to my requests. Last Sunday the spa would not heat. I sent him an email and he was out Tuesday morning to make the repair. It was then he realized that the heater needed to have a service and by noon the following day that had been done. I was taking a hot spa that night! It has been three years since Mike built our pool and spa and your service during that time has always been excellent. Thank you to Horusicky Pools for being so reliable and prompt.”
