About Olson Pools & Spas
Founded in 1976 in the garage of the current owner Steve’s father, Olson Pools & Spas began as a true one-man operation built on hard work, craftsmanship, and a genuine commitment to helping families enjoy their backyards. What started humbly 50 years ago steadily grew through decades of dedication and trust, evolving into the full-scale company it is today.
Today, Olson Pools & Spas provides complete sales, service, and installation for inground and above-ground pools, spas, saunas, and a full range of accessories designed to center backyard living around water. From the first conversation through long after installation, the company focuses on quality, reliability, and creating spaces where lasting memories are made. At its core, Olson Pools & Spas exists to give families a place to relax, unwind, and enjoy years of fun with friends and loved ones.
Built on Values that Last
While the company has grown significantly since its early garage days, its foundation remains unchanged. Olson Pools & Spas continues to operate with a strong emphasis on honesty, craftsmanship, and long-term relationships. Every project— regardless of size—is approached with the same care and attention to detail that defined the business from the beginning.
That commitment to doing things the right way has earned Olson Pools & Spas a reputation for reliability and trust. Customers know they can expect clear communication, thoughtful recommendations, and solutions tailored to their specific needs, rather than one-size-fits-all approaches.
A Team-First Approach to Service
A defining characteristic of Olson Pools & Spas is its teamfirst mentality. The company has intentionally cultivated a positive, supportive environment where employees are valued and empowered because they understand that exceptional customer experiences begin with a strong internal culture.
Unlike many sales-driven organizations, Olson Pools & Spas does not rely on highpressure tactics. Sales team members are paid a salary alongside commission, allowing them to focus on listening, educating, and guiding families toward the right solution for their backyard and lifestyle. Regardless of who a customer works with, the shared mission remains the same: deliver outstanding service through honesty, collaboration, and expertise.
Shared Success through Profit Sharing
One of the ways Olson Pools & Spas reinforces accountability and pride in workmanship is through its employee profitsharing program. The philosophy is simple: when customers are well taken care of, everyone benefits. By sharing the company’s success with its employees, Olson Pools & Spas creates a culture where each team member has a vested interest in quality, follow-through, and long-term satisfaction. This approach ensures that every installation, service call, and customer interaction is handled with genuine care, responsibility, and passion.
Creating Spaces where Memories are Made
At the heart of everything Olson Pools & Spas does is the belief that water brings people together. Pools, spas, and saunas are more than products—they are gathering places for connection, celebration, and relaxation.
Fifty years after its founding, Olson Pools & Spas continues to honor its roots while looking ahead, combining experience, integrity, and a people-first mindset to help families create backyards that will be enjoyed for generations to come.
