After being a loyal customer for nearly 10 years, I received the most horrendous customer service (including directly from the owner himself). It is astounding. and therefore requires a short novel in this review. I was given the run around for about two weeks for what should have been a routine service appointment to install a pool light. After a couple no shows/pushing me back on their calendar (without any communication unless I reached out), I checked in to ensure they were showing up for the third time, and again no feedback. After this absurd back and forth for nearly two weeks, the owner emails me that he has "concerns" with my service (NEVER COMMUNICATED THAT TO ME FOR THE TWO WEEKS SINCE PURCHASING the $400 light). *If there is a disconnect between an owner and his staff, that is THEIR issue, not the customer's. I immediately followed up with a thorough, polite, explanatory email (which I should not have needed to do) requesting directions on how to get this service call completed. Again, NO RESPONSE FOR TWO DAYS from the owner. I then returned the item, with not one word from the sales technician, which is quite telling. It was not until that moment, that I receive an email from the owner informing me that it was too risky to perform the service and that they returned the item with no problem. If there was ever an insincere communication that is nothing more than covering for completely awful customer service to a loyal, 10 year customer, who is also local to this business, this was it. 1) They had no reason NOT to refund the $400 light since I bought it from them while simultaneously being put on the schedule for installation but they later refused to install it, 2) I received ZERO communication regarding this matter from the day I purchased until my third request for a tech to show up to install it, (over a two week span). I would have never bought it in the first place had I been told ANYTHING at all from the tech or the owner. For those still reading, the first thing I communicated when purchasing the light was that I did not want to have any problems purchasing it first and was told that the owner would never do that and that I am a long time, local customer. (*OWNER, stand by your employees' communication with your customers.) I needed to have electrical work done prior to the service (using an electrician that THIS BUSINESS RECOMMENDED!), and was trying to be thorough, by showing him what was being installed after completely rewiring EVERYTHING from the timer connections, brand new outlet/wiring and pool box wiring. To express "concern" or "risk" is not only absurd, but shame on this owner for NEVER taking the time to ask me, or reply to my lengthy communication once he finally emailed me to let me know no one was showing up to perform the install that his techs scheduled me for in the first place. This needed to be a novel, and though his rebuttal may be anything associated with a risk, it is complete BS. I spent a small fortune rewiring everything and trusted that he would complete what his techs indicated they would. You do not stand by your employees or customers and you do not take the time to ASK anything. All you did was not show up, later email me that my service is risky, and then a pathetic email to pat yourself on the back for taking the return. It's a complete joke. read more
