So glad we found Legacy Backyards in Lincoln for our pool project at our new home! Not only were they straightforward on their pricing, but they also had a great deposit and ordering process. We weren’t sure about the size and they talked us through how we planned to use our pool so we could decide. Our salesman, Nathan, was always responsive and very knowledgeable. He really worked with us to iron out any wrinkles in our installation between the different contractors, etc. The whole process moved right along and we were swimming within 5-6 weeks! We love how it turned out and we can’t wait to enjoy our first whole summer of swimming season! Thank you to the whole team!

I highly recommend Legacy Backyards if you are interested in a pool. They were fantastic to work with from the idea phase through construction. The team at Legacy helped us select the perfect pool size, location, materials, and cover. They were responsive, communicated well, and do quality work. Installation was seamless, and they made sure we had everything we needed to start swimming and enjoying our pool. We've had our pool for quite a few years now and plan to enjoy it for many more.

From installation, to pool opening and closing, they’ve been great every time. They’re fast, professional. Our pool is opened clean and ready to use, and closing is just as quick. The installation process was smooth. Highly recommend for reliable pool services.

Ordered a hot tub from Legacy, wanted to get it before Christmas to surprise my family. Nathan and the Legacy team went above and beyond to get to get it ordered and installed to make it happen. Great customer service and would highly recommend.

Working with Legacy Backyards from start to finish has been an absolute pleasure and truly was an experience that surpassed our expectations in the best ways. Right from the very first consultation, their professionalism and attention to detail stood out. The entire team was knowledgeable, reliable, and took real pride in their work, making us feel confident and excited about the project every step of the way. Our new pool turned out even better than we imagined—the quality of craftsmanship and design is top-notch. They kept us informed at every stage, stayed right on schedule, and made the whole process completely stress-free. It's clear they genuinely care about their customers. I'd highly recommend Legacy Backyards to anyone looking to build or remodel a pool. We couldn't be happier with the results!

Andrew and the Legacy Backyards team are amazing! They started my inground pool project on time (even a bit earlier than projected) and were done within the time frame discussed. We even ran into a couple issues (no fault of theirs) that caused delays, but they still got it done on time. Prior to project beginning, Andrew met with me to show me the virtual look, explain the process, cost, exactly what I wanted, the whole nine yards. He made adjustments as I requested to give me exactly what I wanted. There was no him hawing around things to make it easier on them; it was all about what I wanted. The final cost was exactly as discussed with no surprises. The communication was literally the best I’ve ever had from a contractor. I bought my house in May and had a lot of contractors in and out, so I’ve experienced communication issues/delays, except with Legacy. I really want to stress this because it made my life so much easier! They set up a WhatsApp chat with every group involved (concrete, electrical, pool, etc.) so all questions could run through there and the correct person could respond. I never had any delays in questions I had. They would communicate what their plan was, when they were coming, what they were doing, if they weren’t coming if they were originally supposed to be here, etc. If I needed help with something, they were here. Everyone was polite and professional and willing to help. The end project is exactly what I wanted and I have no complaints! The experience I had with Legacy is the best I’ve ever had with someone working on my house. I would 100% recommend them to everyone!
