Pool construction and the service that follows both feature in Shoreline Pools customers’ accounts. A Chatham homeowner writing in July 2026 described help through approvals, design, installation and ongoing service, naming Dillan for his work on design and installation. Another July reviewer said the company had maintained their pool for six years after building it, including seasonal openings and closings. Shoreline is in South Dennis and says it designs, builds, renovates and services Cape Cod swimming pools, including leak detection and repair. The company names Chris Dittrich as founder and president and says it opened in 2006. BBB gives a different business start date, January 2011. It has an A+ BBB grade and is not BBB accredited. The Massachusetts state registry confirms Shoreline Pools Inc’s home improvement contractor registration 161240 is active. Google publishes a 4.5-star rating from 53 ratings. A June 2026 customer said their pool project finished on time and on budget; a July customer reported the same for a gunite installation and said the team handled a difficult conservation situation under Brewster’s guidelines. A June reviewer in Sandwich described Chris explaining the options and helping design the backyard, with a project manager available throughout. For ongoing care, a June customer described weekly pool visits and replies to questions within about an hour. A May customer said the team had installed a new liner after years of servicing the pool. Follow-through has also drawn complaints. In July 2026, a customer whose pool was built in 2021 said a problem first addressed in 2023 had returned, that Chris promised a visit, and that nobody arrived or answered subsequent calls, texts and emails. They said they could not use the pool midway through summer. Older complaints describe other difficulties. An October 2022 reviewer alleged repeated replastering, a blotchy finish, grout loss, property damage and unanswered calls after work stretching back to 2018. A July 2022 customer said communication stopped after they signed a contract and that the promised summer installation had not happened. In contrast, a customer writing in October 2024 described a pool rehabilitation involving a new liner, coping and decking, with the crew arriving on time each day.
Chris and his team at Shoreline installed a Gunite pool for me this summer and we couldn't be happier with the results. His team helped us with the planning stage, start to finish and executed on time and on budget. We started May 15th and were swimming by august 1st. They also handled a very difficult conservation situation to comply with guidelines of the Brewster conservation department. If you need a pool installation I highly recommend Shoreline and their entire team.
Shoreline pools has been a pleasure to work with from start to finish. The staff is professional and knowledgeable. They stand behind their work and have been available to assist with any questions we have had. After our experience I would recommend them to anyone.
We purchased a home in Chatham 18 months ago. As part of the process we wanted certainty we could build a pool. Shoreline was incredibly helpful through every stage of approval, design, installation and service. Special kudos to Dillan for all the help through design and installation. We are very, very happy with the entire team and I think our pool is a beautiful focal point of the home. Smart, responsive, helpful and polite. Great company
we had chris team come build our pool in 2021 and had a small problem in 2023 he was attentive and came when he could we had the same problem again this year; chris told us he would come by the house and still no one still has shown up and now fully ghosted us and not answer our phone calls,texts,and emails. We are half way through summer and we have no pool. Very bad job, very disappointed; for the amount we have paid for to not get customer satisfaction, i hope you don’t get your pool done with him
We as a family recommend Shoreline Pools and their excellent staff to build and design your pool. They are as professional as you will find and pay attention to every detail along the way until the project is complete. Our pool came out better than we ever imagined !The staff are very easy to work with and approachable during the entire build . I would not hesitate to call them if you are considering a summer oasis in your backyard. B and B Cape Cod!
