Jonas McCullar, owner of American Pool Techs in Memphis, TN
Jonas McCullar
Owner · American Pool Techs

I’m Jonas McCullar, owner of American Pool Techs. I was born and raised right here in the Memphis area — this isn’t a market I parachuted into. The neighborhoods we work in are the same ones my family grew up in, and that matters to how we run this business.

I live in the Memphis area with my wife Kelsey and our four kids. When I’m not on a job site or out at a consult, you’ll probably find me on the road with the family. Between the four of them, we stay plenty busy.

I started American Pool Techs in 2006 because I saw too many Mid-South homeowners getting handed off to subcontractors, getting hit with surprise change orders, and waiting weeks for a callback after the build was done. We do it differently.

“Our goal is to be the only pool company you ever need to call — from the first design conversation to the weekly service call ten years later. Every customer matters, whether it’s a single repair or a full backyard build.”
— Jonas McCullar, Owner

Today we cover every phase of the work with our own team — designers, construction crews, weekly service technicians, repair specialists, and office staff who actually pick up the phone. No subcontracting. No outsourcing the parts that matter. Just one company that builds it, maintains it and stands behind it.

Every job, every phase, done by our team.

From the first design meeting to your tenth year of weekly service — American Pool Techs handles it with in-house W-2 employees. We don’t subcontract the work that defines our reputation.

Our Team

Five departments. One company.

We’re one of the largest in-house pool teams in the Mid-South. Whether it’s a new pool construction project, a full renovation, ongoing weekly service, or an emergency equipment repair, each department is staffed with full-time American Pool Techs employees — not contractors, not gig workers, not a roster of subs we pull from when the schedule fills up.

📋

Office Staff

The people who pick up the phone, schedule your visit, and keep your project moving. New leads, weekly service routes, billing, scheduling — all handled in-house, in Memphis.

🎨

Pool Designers

Custom design for every project. We use expedited 3D design tools to show you exactly what your pool will look like in your yard before we break ground. Every design is reviewed with you before it goes to the build crew.

🏗️

Construction Crews

Excavation, steel, plumbing, gunite, finishing — all our employees. The crew that digs your pool is the same crew that pours the deck, sets the equipment, and walks you through startup.

🧹

Weekly Service Techs

Trained, certified, and W-2 employees. Same tech every week. Detailed chemistry reports, equipment checks, and pride in keeping your pool dialed in. Our weekly service customers are a top priority.

🔧

Repair Technicians

Certified across Hayward, Jandy, and Pentair. Pumps, filters, heaters, salt systems, automation, lighting — properly diagnosed before any quote is given. All repairs carry a workmanship and manufacturer warranty.

🇺🇸

Local Leadership

Jonas and the leadership team are on job sites, in the office, and reachable. We’re not a corporate franchise or a private equity rollup. You’re talking to the people who own the company.

How We Operate

What you can expect from American Pool Techs

Twenty years of running this business has taught us what Mid-South homeowners actually want from a pool company. Browse our recent work if you’d rather see the proof. Not buzzwords. Just these things, done consistently.

1
Honest assessments first

We tell you what the project really takes — even if it’s not what you wanted to hear. No lowball quotes designed to lock you in before the change orders pile up.

2
One company, every phase

Design through long-term service, you stay with us. No “you’ll need to call someone else for that.” We’re built to be your one call.

3
Every customer matters

The weekly service customer with a $300/month route gets the same response time as a $150K new build. We don’t rank our clients by ticket size.

4
Workmanship that’s warrantied

Lifetime structural warranty on every new build shell. Workmanship warranties on every repair. Manufacturer warranties pass through fully to you on every piece of equipment we install.

5
You’re not getting handed off

The crew that builds your pool, the tech who services it, the office staff who scheduled it — they all work for the same company. Communication doesn’t drop when one phase ends and another begins.

6
We answer the phone

Local Memphis office. Real people. During business hours you’re getting a human, not a phone tree. After hours, voicemails get returned the next business morning.
