Kept Informed From First Visit to Final Fit
Hank. Katchaleaf fitted February 2026.
Hank’s review is about the part most buyers never see: the gap between the first visit, when the anchors go in and the cover is marked, and the second, when the finished cover comes back. His branch kept him posted through both.
From the first visit to the completion of the installation, everyone was friendly, helpful, thorough in their design, manufacturing and installation. Everyone kept us informed so we knew what to expect. All-in-all it was a very pleasurable experience.
I am a repeat customer, my first Katch A Kid pool cover lasted a very long time. The new order was quick and easy, I highly recommend.
We finally decided to get a cover this year and after doing our research, decided on Katchakid. The whole process has been smooth and seamless… It will be so nice to keep our pool free of leaves and debris this year, especially when we’re out of town.

From First Enquiry to the First Fall
The same four stages every Katchaleaf goes through, told by the people who went through them.
1. Tell Us About the Pool
Katchkid was the only organization that responded to my inquiry promptly… Cover looks awesome. Also Charla and the Lewisville office personnel were great to work with.
EnquiryIt was very easy to get a quote and schedule an installation with no high pressure selling… When I contacted Dave so many months later, he got back to me quickly and got the ball rolling.
2. Choose the Look
When I first contacted Katchakid, I spoke with Mason. He texted me photos of previous projects and explained everything in detail. Communication was really good.

Color3. First Fit
From our first meeting with our Rep., Dave Sims, to our first appointment for measurements for a pool debris cover, to installation, our experience with Katchakid has been great. Rogelio, our installer, explained the measurement & installation process and answered all our questions.
FittingThe process of the custom built cover was fascinating. Gave us an in depth demo and I feel like I fully understand what seemed like an extremely complicated system initially.
4. Final Fit and Handover
He answered all my questions and showed me all the tips and tricks to make putting the cover on and off a breeze. I’m looking forward to NOT fishing out leaves this fall.
HandoverMatt came out today to install the pool cover and demonstrated the steps for installing and removing the pool cover. He even suggested that I record the steps on my cell phone in the event I needed it for assistance.
Leaves, Oak Trees and the Spring Opening
Hours of Skimming, Gone
Only been here 4 months, spent several ours removing oak leaves from my pool, Had a leaf mesh cover installed, and it will save me hours and money this winter.
DebrisIt’s going to save me so much time and work cleaning my pool during the winter months.
Away From Home, Pool Still Clean
It will be so nice to keep our pool free of leaves and debris this year, especially when we’re out of town.
SeasonalNo more leaves in my pool gives me more time to work on my race car.

Taking It Off and Putting It Back On

HandlingNet and Katchaleaf Together
Many households run both: the net as the barrier, the Katchaleaf for the leaves. The net is secured first and the cover goes over it. When used by itself, the Katchaleaf is not a safety product.
Two Products, One Handover
Net + CoverMatt was punctual, professional, did an amazing job instructing us on the process of removing and replacing our net and cover and was very helpful answering the questions we had.
Fitted in the Same Visit
Santos was extremely professional throughout the install and took time to answer our questions and show us how to operate our net and cover.

Every quote above is from a public Trustpilot review, where Katchakid is rated 4.9 out of 5 from 2,100+ reviews across nets, fences and covers. Read the full record, including the critical ones, before you decide.
The Katchaleaf is a leaf and debris cover and is not a safety barrier. No barrier is childproof, and none replaces close, constant adult supervision.
