Braccolino's Swimming Pools in Staten Island, NY is the worst company around. Larry Braccolino took $13,000 from me and my husband back in July of 2008 and disappeared for 10 months. Called him every day for months, he would ignore my calls, my husbands calls. I would have to use other peoples phones in order to get through to him. I threatened him. Finally in May of 2009 2 weeks before my son's communion he showed up to put my pool in. After installing my pool I have had nothing but issues with the pool. He installed concrete steps. YES, CONCRETE steps. You know how dangerous that is. The vermiculite he used on the bottom of my pools is all lumpy, looks like craters on the moon. My pool was very poorly built. He in fact couldn't start my pool for those 10 months because I found out he had used my $13,000.00 to finish someone else's. That's what he does, he takes customers money, uses it to finish other pools and makes you wait for yours. I would never recommend anyone to use this company to build them a pool. Very poor business. read more
