Native Pools

Very disappointed with our experience with Native Pools and Cory. They serviced both our pool and…read moremy parent's pool next door for about a year. Early on, Cory pointed out issues with our system including the control panel and we spent money fixing and replacing the items he told us needed attention. We trusted that if there were additional ongoing issues, they would be clearly communicated to us. Unfortunately, that did not happen. Instead of calling us and handling things professionally, Cory chose to drop both accounts by text. In that same message, he admitted the pool had been a problem and acknowledged issues with the filters and pump, and said he had "given up." Because of the poor communication and lack of professionalism, our pool has now been left in poor condition and will require additional money to get it operational again.A pool is a major investment, and this was an unacceptable way to treat paying customers. We would not recommend Native Pools.

Cory does a great job! Our pool is always clean and clear, we couldn't be happier with the service.read more

Well just because your other clients do it doesn't mean I am going to essentially tip you 1/2 of what you normally charge.. especially since this was only the second month you were "servicing" our pool and the first time you charged us a month rate for a single visit. I understand a short notice or "emergency" rate hike but you were seriously taking advantage and acting like I owed you.

Having service for six months, I was extremely disappointed in the level of effort given to my pool. In the six months he was maintaining my pool, I was billed a thousand dollars to get my pool and spa healthy. His service was to include weekly filter inspections and scrubbing of algae. I was billed for "hyper-chlorination" treatments and other services that did not happen. Suspecting neglect, I had another pool service come out and check his work. They found my filters to be ruined from lack of cleaning, and the chlorine levels in the pool to be zero. His response was "I understand if you want to get service elsewhere". The only consistency I received from Murphy was a bill.

So, if you are looking for great landscaping materials at competitive (and better prices) and folks who care, go to FOCAL POINT...and no, we are not related but we would adopt Logan if we could. Jim and Connie

I will start by saying I am devastated to have to give such a poor review of a local company…read more My family and I have always used Focal Point. In the past few years something has changed. I had family members stop using them as they claimed the yards delivered were consistently short. Due to their customer service and family nature- I tried to give them the benefit of the doubt. Long story short- I ordered 3/4 "clean" black chip in the quantity of 2 yards. It showed up and while it looked rather blue and light- I was told it was black chip rock. Despite my reservations I accepted it and moved on. A mere 4 days later- I ordered an additional yard of the exact same product to the front area adjacent. It showed up and was a COMPLETELY different color. We are talking a 30-50% variance in color, not a natural variance as they kept reiterating on the phone. Upon checking their website- we were absolutely delivered sierra blue rock the first go around. Rather than owning their mistake- I received a call back from the owner insisting he was right and giving me the riot act of excuses. He also mentioned another house he had botched with 5 yards of material and told me "the bad review wasnt worth fixing it." This was after speaking to the wife and repeatedly being asked "well what do you want us to do about it." I finally got the husband to agree to give me the weekend and "drop off some buckets of the lighter color to mix in if your still unhappy" I gave it the weekend, and rinsed the rock several times as instructed by the owner despite ordering "clean" rock. It did nothing, its absolutely the wrong rock. Upon calling- I was now told despite the rinsing and giving it the weekend and texting pictures of what is CLEARLY a different rock. A refund was the best they would do and I needed to drive down there to get it. Not only that, but the delivery would NOT be refunded, because "that happened." No buckets of rock, no replacement yard, no offer to pick up their mistake. In fact, during the refund the owner said "I really dont think i should do this" to imply they still werent wrong. I really hope YELP allows me to post a photo after this to show you all how distasteful the lack of ownership was. USE SUTHERLAND DESPITE THEIR FLAWS.

Mixed Experience - Kind Crew, But Lacking in Execution…read more I hired Abe's Yard Clean-Up for a large garden project and appreciated that the quote supported a small crew of respectful, hard-working young men. They were courteous and professional in demeanor, which I valued. Unfortunately, the quality of the work did not match the price. Several areas of my yard were left uncleared, trimmings were not cleaned up, and there was little attention paid to garden features like solar lights. I requested a return visit to address what was missed, which they did--but the initial lack of detail was disappointing. Most frustrating was when a shovel of soil was tossed over my koi pond, leaving it full of dirt. I had to spend hours restoring the water quality myself. I do have photos documenting the issues. Overall, the experience was a mix--good intentions, kind workers, but a lack of follow-through and care in execution.

I don't know if the business changed hands and has new ownership, but it feels like it. The friendly, helpful pool guy we used to have was replaced by someone who's primary goal was, seemingly, to get in and out of there as quickly as possible. Corners were being cut and the level of service was falling, while the cost kept rising. Many times I wasn't sure that the guy had even come that week - there was no evidence of him having been there. I called the office about it and was told to call the service tech. I did and tried to have a conversation about what seemed to be happening. He immediately got very defensive and refused to speak to me. His boss got on the phone and started arguing with me about how they were actually doing the level of service they promised, despite the obvious reality. This animosity died down eventually and they continued to maintain our pool, and were actually doing a better job. The pool almost always looked pretty good despite the short weekly visits. The prices kept going up though, eventually reaching $160/mo for short, 10-minute weekly visits. They complained about the number of trees surrounding the pool but still managed to be in and out in under 15 minutes every time no matter what. Just this week we found a note on the door saying that Holiday Pools is breaking up with us as of the end of the month. No reason, just "call the owner if you have questions." I'm not going to bother. It's time for us to move on as well. Too bad... a great old Chico business slowly pricing and complaining itself out of existence.
