Hacienda Pools, was my go too supplier for years as their customer service was always awesome. Recently, something has definitely changed I certainly will no longer be a customer. Reason: Recently our pool pump cratered and needed to be upgraded to the newer e-pump, I contacted Hacienda Pools and ordered one, they had it the very next day. Reading the complexities of connecting the new pump I thought it wise to get a trained tech to do it. I called Hacienda Pools, made an appointment for their tech to come and install the pump, he would arrive after 2 pm I was told. Staying close to the house the day of the tech visit. I receive a call around 1:00pm telling me he wasn't going to make it today and would have to re-schedule it for the next day. I explain to him I have commitments the next day and it would have to be after 4:00pm when I can get home, no problem he says. The next day he arrives at 3:45pm just ahead of myself, I take him out the pool pump that needs to be installed, I had already removed the old pump. I helped him move stuff around to get the pump to fit so he could plumb it in. I also asked him to please remove the spa heater plumbing from the system. 10 minutes later he knocked on the door wanting to look at the remote which he played with for a few minutes then explained he wasn't sure how to get it to work and Jandy wasn't answering their phones, they are closed! He then tells me that his guy at Jandy will call me in the morning around 8:00am to walk me through the install process of this pump, I say ok that's not a problem! He goes back outside to do something, when I go out a few minutes later to tell him we have to leave again, he's driving out the driveway the whole visit about 30 minutes! The next morning, I go out to inspect the installation and he has run a pipe right in front of the control panel so the panel door can only be opened about halfway before hitting a pipe!! I wait till 10:30 for this call to happen before calling Hacienda and asking them when I might receive this "call", they know nothing about it. Shortly after I receive a text from the tech telling me his guy is sick and I'll have to phone Jandy myself, with the number he gave to me, I tell him he didn't give me any number! He texted me the phone number, I call and sit on hold for close to 30 minutes waiting to talk to a tech, who explains to me that they're not supposed to give advice on setting that's a techs job, but would try and help. About a minute into the call, he tells me that the circuit board is outdated and needs to be upgraded and the tech should have a least known this by looking at it!! So I have to order a new control circuit board. while I'm waiting for the new circuit board to arrive, I go out and replumb half the piping he did wrong, that's when I notice he never even bothered to connect the $1800.00 pump motor to the ground cable!! That was the last straw I called Hacienda to complain about such poor workmanship and negligence in not connecting the grounding cable, Duane the manager was very concerned and assured me he would bring it to the owner's attention for a resolution and they would contact me shortly. 2 weeks later I receive a phone call from the owner of Hacienda Pools, I'm thinking wow better late than never I suppose! The owner asks me if I happened to receive the invoice in the mail for the work and did I pay it yet, I told her I had paid by credit card the morning after the work was done, she said sorry for the call and was going to hang up, I said hey, just hold on a minute hasn't you manager told you anything what happened on this particular install, she replied yes, he mentioned something about it! So, I explained to her everything that happened, she couldn't have cared less all she was concerned with was had I paid their bill! I also informed her that I had never received any invoices for their work or the pump, which she assured me she would handle personally like this was to be a major accomplishment in resolving their poor workmanship and negligence. Thus I will no longer deal with Hacienda Pools of Weatherford, TX and would recommend them to others. read more
