    Backyard & Home used the wrong chemicals after filling and it started to turn the pool green will now have to drain the pool.

    I'm usually not one to leave reviews, but I feel it's my duty to warn others about the nightmare I experienced with Bakersfield Backyard and Home. It's been over a year since I hired them to build my pool, and it's still not complete. What started as a dream quickly turned into a nightmare when I hired Husain, the owner's son, to quote the job in May 2022. He promised the project would take five weeks, but it turned out to be a year of hell. Bakersfield Backyard and Home is very unprofessional and lacks decent customer service. The first red flag was when their secretary quit after we gave them the initial payment for excavation. She told us she didn't want to be affiliated with such a place and all the horror she's gone through working there. Quresh, the owner, will tell you what you want to hear just so that he can receive payment. He even threatened not to finish the project until he received the last payment. After we released the final payment, he finished putting the pool together, but the project was far from complete, and I'm not happy or satisfied with the results. He received his last payment and ran, constantly lying and telling me he would fix things just so I would get out of his face. Bakersfield Backyard and Home provided no after-care instructions and left debris and trash around the pool area. The pool heater still doesn't work, and wooden planks were haphazardly attached to the cement. The fence was thrown back up and fell down during strong winds. There was a complete lack of attention to detail. Pools are far too expensive not to be done correctly or with care. I gave them several opportunities to correct their errors, but the work has yet to be completed. My advice to anyone considering Bakersfield Backyard and Home is to find another contractor and run the other way. I don't know how they're still in business, and I'm considering taking legal action. Do yourself a favor and avoid this company at all costs.

    Leak one of two I noticed

    Update on my patio IT LEAKS! Multiple places. Not even just edges where it connects to beams, in RANDOM PLACES OF THE SOLID PIECES!! Cheap materials obviously in my opinion. The downspout empties to my patio cement. When inspecting the leaks, I noticed a screw was not even there that keeps the patios together! And this passed inspection?! Maybe that's why it failed the first time. Called and spoke with Suresh. He would "get with his guys" and see what they can do. Been about a month. I will file a complaint like another reviewer. Pay attention the only good reviews are NOT for patios or windows.

    Our new spa

    This is our second spa from Backyard and Home. I wouldn't purchase one anywhere else. The customer service in store and delivery and set up were fantastic. Hopefully, we won't need another one but if we do, we'll be back. This is a great family owned, local business. Husain, Steve, and Oscar are easy to work with.

    Paradise built a pool and spa at our home . The pool came out great and we haven't had any issues…read morewith it. We love the way it came out. With that being said, the building process was not pleasant. They far exceeded the agreed upon completion date. Said it would take 2 months. Ended up taking 5 months. I also had to follow up and stay on their ass every step of the way. I constantly had to go around the Foreman, who didn't return calls, communicated poorly and didn't follow through, and call the owner just to get sub contractors scheduled and progress made. First They kept blaming the city permitting department. After waiting a month after they dug the hole, I finally called the city myself and found they never submitted a permit. They owned that mistake and promised improvement. After that they would do a days worth of work, leave for 3 weeks, I would call and complain nothing was being done, they would show up do 2 days worth of work, then leave for another couple weeks etc.. I understand that we were at the mercy of subcontractors. But not even scheduling and leaving your customer high and dry is unacceptable. I had higher expectations for their customer service and logistics. Also, there was no follow up after construction. Not even Just a "Hey how's that pool doing?" Pros: Great Pool, Great work, Good Subcontractors. Cons: Poor communication, poor scheduling/logisitcs. I hope they see this as constructive and made some minor improvements since. In the end, we love our pool.

    Dropping in on a pool is a big commitment and I have to say a scary thing. The other component I…read morethink is conceptualizing the process from start to finish as its a large process to get a pool in there and fine tune all the details. Paradise dialed it in for my family. Getting started was easy, getting down to details and concept was smooth, and the roll out was likewise lengthy but worth it. Equipment has all the bells and whistling we need to be happy all summer long. All their staff were top notch and helpful, we are very pleased with our pool!

    If I could leave negative stars I would…read more I had high hopes when I initiated service with this business and it was the biggest mistake. I literally, only lasted 1 month of service with Adrian. This guy is very arrogant, and argumentative. In addition, he calls me and asks me if I have home owners insurance and telling me to file a claim for my pool pump. If I have home owners insurance I should only pay $100 and they will call him to repair the pump. I said thanks and hung up. I went online to pentair and found a licensed contractor through Pentair, and they came to take the pump. They were shocked at the extended of the damage of my pump. After further inspection, it turns out my pump exploded probably from these guys ignorance or maybe intentional to charge my home insurance for this. Attached are the photos and the message from the contractor. I would never recommend this business. Update: The final cost to repair $1,057.75, because In addition to the pump exploding, it cause damage to the plumbing.

    Where do I start, this company honestly works extremely hard. The staff they have are professional,…read morehonest, and hardworking. The owner really does everything in his power to keep every customer happy. He's a very direct person but he's honest. If there is an issue he will fix it 100%. If you are a rude customer I'm sure he tries until you cross the line. Then he tells you to kick rocks. I'm 100% certain that he runs this business with integrity. He overall will help you as much as possible and he will keep your pool looking great. Oh and you can call him direct anytime of the day for pool advise/help even FaceTime. His prices are super fair for what you get. It's all relative because he's a REAL pool company and is CPO Certified. Call him and I bet you will think the same. If you had a bad experience with him send him a text I'm sure he will try to make a right.
