Let me start by saying Rodney is not a bad person. I believe he is well-meaning overall, and wants to do good by people.
However, you definitely don't want to hire him to work on your spa. While there is some chance he can fix it, but there is a large chance that like me he doesn't fix it. Charges you $375. Creates a huge leak in your area that ruins carpets. Promises to come back, doesn't come back. Say's he'll make it right and then doesn't.
Here are the issues with Rodney:
He's not a good troubleshooter. Despite having worked with spas a long time, he's not good a featuring out what the problem is.
He cuts corners. For example he put the wrong piping in our hot tub which resulted in a huge leak that he denied repsonisiblity for. He said "it wasn't leaking when I left, so it's your fault". The next guy outlined all the problems it was a vertical consumer white piping not grey hottub suitable piping.
You can't trust he will do what he says he will. He seems very earnest and says "Trust me" a lot, but you can't. Even if you get it in writing like I did, he will back out.
During the first round, the hot tub didn't get fixed, but he said it was and said he had to go to another appointment. He promised to come back in the morning if there were any problems. It started leaking and I told him this multiple times, and he didn't respond for a long time.
He didn't show up as promised in the morning, but said he would come at 5:00pm, but didn't show up again. Claimed he didn't say he would. He finally came back and did a bunch of work, but couldn't figure out the problem. He said he would need to charge to do more troubleshooting, even after he agreed in writing he would fix it for no more cost.
We finally got another person out from Poole, and they were the opposite. Took 30 minutes to figure everything out and pointed out all the problems that rodney created.
If you choose rodney, and horrible things happen and you have read this, then it's no one's fault but yours. read more
