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 />

Friday. For more information, you<br />
