At first I really liked Joe and was confident in his work. However from the first experience, this company failed to do what was promised. When you have to ask for the invoice for a $3000.00 pool cover multiple times to pay for it, so it can be ordered, this should have been an immediate red flag. That cover wasn't installed until late November and I was left freezing maintaining my pool. What I was told is that it would arrive in four weeks. My frustration with caring for the pool and the fact that I waited three months for that cover, led me to hastily request a ladder be cut off to close my pool as the guys couldn't remove it. They had no tools, used my CLR and my husbands saw. They left sharp edges, covered only by cardboard. I requested Joe come out and ensure those edges were not causing damage to the cover and one was exposed risking the safety of my dogs and children. My husband had to replace the cardboard and Joe never returned until mid March. I text him multiple times about this, to which he continually replied that he was too busy and would be out when things slowed down. In addition, when they came to open the pool, I had a Saturday appointment that I booked in February. May 1st, no one came to open the pool. So I messaged Joe. He said he had me down on May 6th. I sent him a screenshot showing the appointment was in fact made for May 1st. They dumped in chemicals, told me the pump was broken, did not clean or store the cover, left garbage in my yard and did not install the ladder. Joe was supposed to call about how to proceed with replacing the pump, I patiently waited a week and decided to reach out to him as I had decided this company wouldn't be getting my business for the pump replacement. When we spoke, he made excuses, was rude and again lied stating cleaning and storing the cover was not part of the opening! He then said I should have been on site to assist his team. Had he showed for our original appointment, I would have been here. My 20 year old son was here and everything needed was in the unlocked pool house. He also claimed instructions were given in an email that I never received. I told him to prove where I had been sent this email and he could not do so. I text him the invoice which clearly states that cleaning and storing the pool cover is included in the opening. He then told me he would send a new invoice for $100 and if I did not pay it in five days he would be adding a $50 late charge every five days and would take me to court if I refused to pay the new invoice. Reluctantly I paid it, but I honestly feel this company owes me the cost of the hand rail they cut out. Spoke to the owner who said things like, "Let me explain something to you, honey, a ladder is made of metal." "Honey there is this little thing called Covid" After about three more honeys, I had to explain to her how and why her verbiage was demeaning, dismissive, and passive aggressive. She claimed honey was a term of endearment. I was shaking and couldn't believe my ears. Do not use this company! While I love supporting small businesses, I would never recommend this company to anyone! I will be following up with the Better Business Bureau! read more
