You will not regret it.

For a long time, I didn't share this story publicly. But after 2.5 years, it feels important to…read more What was supposed to be one of the most joyful parts of building my dream home - adding a pool - became one of the most stressful and disillusioning experiences of my life. I hired a contractor who ultimately harmed multiple families financially (at least 4 families that we know of, for well over $100k), leaving behind unfinished work, exposed foundations, and unanswered questions. I was forced to take legal action, which is never fun and always costly. As everything unraveled, it became clear that this situation went far beyond poor project management - permits were tied to someone else's license, there were overlapping companies, and layers of deception that only became visible once the damage was already done. One moment I will never forget: this contractor stood in my backyard talking to me about "leaving a legacy" for his children - with his sons right there. After signing the contract and waiting months with no progress, my follow-ups were sometimes met with photos of extravagant vacations offered as explanations for the delays. At the time, I didn't fully process it. With the clarity that comes from time, those memories land very differently now. I can't say for certain, but if I were a betting woman, I would bet that he took multiple family's life savings and had a blast....then, of course, declared bankruptcy when things started to catch up to him. All of this happened while I was recovering from a spine injury. I was physically limited, emotionally exhausted, and trying to protect something I had worked my whole life to build. There were moments when I genuinely believed my home might be permanently compromised. A massive hole was dug, my foundation exposed, and then everything stopped. Equipment disappeared. Communication was nonexistent. I was left to figure out how to move forward with the ticking time bomb of having an exposed foundation on my brand new home. And yet - amid all of that - there were people who restored my faith. A structural engineer, (Matt Ingram, an AU grad!) who had also been left unpaid, stepped in and helped me understand what had happened. He offered guidance, critical information, and support simply because it was the right thing to do. After an exhaustive search for a company willing to take on a complicated situation (I know this will come as a shock, but no one wanted to touch this situation with a 10-foot pole), he connected me to Cox Pools of the Southeast - truly a turning point in this journey. I want to specifically thank James, Robert, and McLane. Construction projects are never perfect, but integrity shows in how challenges are handled. Cox Pools, based out of the Dothan area, drove up to Auburn, listened to my story, stood with me through a lot of tears, and gave me hope when I had very little left. They were my hail mary. They were honest, communicative, and relentlessly solution-focused. More importantly, they treated me and my home with genuine care and respect. They delivered a pool that was quite literally out of my dreams. They stepped into a situation they didn't create and helped transform it into something safe, beautiful, and thoughtfully built. What began as a "want" ultimately became a necessity for my healing and recovery, and they understood that in a deeply human way. This experience cost me a lot of time, money, health, and peace of mind - but more importantly, it also reminded me that good people still exist in this world. Cox Pools not only created a haven for me, they also healed a piece of my soul that was so broken from this process. If you're navigating a construction nightmare, first and foremost, I'm so sorry. It is brutal and exhausting in ways most people don't see or understand. Trust your instincts, document everything, and don't give up. And when you find the people who do things the right way, share their stories. (I should add, before working with Cox Pools, I also met with The Backyard Experience Pools and Spas - Eric was so incredibly kind, helpful, and honest - and they earned my pool maintenance business). This pool is more than a finished project and a dream realized. It's proof that integrity will always matter, that there are wonderful people in this world, and that sometimes the hardest detours lead you exactly where you were meant to be. Looking back, I truly believe that if the original project had been completed the way it started, my home may not have been safe - and I would never have met the incredible team of folks that ultimately made this possible. All this to say, if you need a pool...contact Cox Pools. You won't be disappointed, and you won't have a "typical" construction experience. You will be met with the utmost professionalism, folks who take immense pride in their work, clear and honest communication, and a team that truly stands behind what they build.

Here were the highlights of their work: 1. They were on time and worked a full day. They arrived promptly at 8 am, took a 30 minute lunch break and then carried on working. They left their work area very clean at the end of the day. 2. They fixed the sloppy sheetrock job that my HOA remediation contractors did by re-sanding the sheetrock mud several times and making it very smooth. 3. They painted almost all the walls in my condo as well as baseboards and shoemolding. Very crisp and precisely done. 4. They put back together my kitchen cabinets which the remediation company almost destroyed. Truly, the cabinets look like new again! 5. They repaired my quartz kitchen countertops which the remediation company chipped in several place. This saved me about $3000 alone. 6. They expertly installed 800 sq feet of laminate "wood" flooring which was quite tricky given all of the angles in my corner view unit. 7. They installed weather stripping around my front door so I don't hear the whistling/howling wind anymore! 8. They fixed leaking plumbing under a sink and reconnected all of my kitchen appliances (ice maker, dishwasher, stove, etc...). 9. They built wooden shelves for the storage closet where I keep beach floats, buckets, etc. Steve was incredibly responsive during the whole process. Nothing was too much trouble for him or his crew. His bill matched his estimate and they finished the job ON TIME! I could not be happier!!

I had called a few pool companies and Mr. Giles was the only one who seemed very knowledgeable. My issue was a pump has gone bad leaving my pool a very dark green and non functioning. He came in, changed out the pump to a newer model, changed some of the PVC tubes, cleaned my pool until it was crystal clear/pristine. He made sure the chemicals were correct and checked back in with me every few days to make sure it was going smoothly. I will also say he ended up being more fair in price. Other companies were going to charge double what he did, and I did let him know, but he was genuinely more concerned with everything working correctly more so than the money. I ended up needing to call again because I couldn't figure something out with the pump (about 2 months later) he came right back out, fixed the issue, and was more than reasonable in price. I will only contact Coastal Living' Pools!
