I had Dadeland Pool come out to my property to advise me whether the installation of a filter and pump to my pool by another company were done correctly because there was a leak coming from the filter, to re-plumb because the person who installed the filter and pump took out my ability to empty out the pool, and to replace the timer. The technician who came and identified himself as the owner of the company told me the job would cost me $275. I had dealings with this company many times before while it was owned by Dotty, and all the work was done in a good and workmanlike manner so I left the check in the housing of the timer and was not home when the job was suppose to be done. Big mistake! The guy who identified himself to me to be the owner of the company after Dotty sold or passed who did the work only replaced the timer. I called a couple of days later to ask what happened to the leak and to the re-plumbing and he told me he "was sorry but that he forgot". He made another appointment to come and finish the job. He did not show up. I called and he promised he would come "unless I'm dead". This time I was home when he came about 4:30 PM on a Wednesday. He did a half-ass job on the re-plumbing because he made the PVC pipe too short so that when I empty out the pool, the water will inundate the pool pump, and told me that the leak would cost me another $65 to $70 to repair and that he would have to come back another day because he had a meeting to go to then. I told him the leak repair was part of the $275 and he told me that I misunderstood. I argued with him to no avail so I agreed to have him come to finish the job. However, after he left and I thought about it, I was very angry because I felt I was being robbed by this company. I am a paralegal by trade and very detail driven and I know what I heard. I sent him a text cancelling his "appointment". I only share my story so that other customers will know how to deal with this company in the future. I know I will never deal with them again and will advice my family and friends about my experience. read more
