Jerrell’s Pools of Conway is all about<br />
family – the family members who<br />
run the business, the employees that<br />
work there, and the customers who walk<br />
through their doors.<br />
“We love serving the people of <strong>Faulkner</strong><br />
County. Some of the nicest people reside<br />
here in Central Arkansas. We love the<br />
friends we have made through our business,”<br />
says Melissa Jerrell. She and her<br />
husband, Matt, work hand-in-hand in<br />
the family-owned business, along with<br />
Matt’s mother, Sherry, “who is always in<br />
the retail store.”<br />
Jerrell’s Pools has been in business since<br />
1962, offering services that include<br />
building and maintaining pools. “We<br />
build new Gunite and vinyl pools, along<br />
with maintenance and service on pools.<br />
We also do water testing,” Melissa said.<br />
The company has 10 people on staff,<br />
who are committed to work hard to<br />
please all their customers.<br />
“We care about the end product.<br />
Catching and addressing water <strong>issue</strong>s is<br />
something we really stress on. We will<br />
always work to prevent these <strong>issue</strong>s,”<br />
Matt added.<br />
One of the biggest jobs for Jerrell’s Pools<br />
is helping people “create their backyard<br />
oasis.” Some of their customers know<br />
what they want, but might not be sure<br />
how to get there. “We guide them in the<br />
direction to achieve their end result,”<br />
Matt said.<br />
Melissa said that Gunite pools are popular<br />
these days, “as they allow lots of freedom<br />
with your design.” As for vinyl pools,<br />
many are built with sundecks. “These<br />
are perfect for toddlers to play on or to<br />
sunbathe in a ledge lounger,” she added.<br />
Overall, the family and employees at<br />
Jerrell’s Pools want their customers<br />
to enjoy the space they have helped<br />
to create. “I want every family with a<br />
backyard that has a pool from Jerrell’s to<br />
enjoy it for years with their children and<br />
grandchildren,” Melissa says.<br />
Jerrell‘s Pools is located at 4106<br />
Prince St. in Conway. Business hours<br />
are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through<br />
