Do not do business with Tucson Pool and Spa. They are unprofessional, dishonest and unreliable.
After moving to Tucson in May, I was convinced to buy a new pool pump system. The installation in June of 2024 was without problems. The technician told me to contact him in six months so that he could show me how to do the regular maintenace.
On November 4th, I texted the technician and asked when he could come by to show me the maintenance steps. He replied a few hours later, saying that he could come by in 2 days.
On November 6, I contacted him to find out when he would be coming. At 4:00 PM, he arrived. Almost immediately upon entering the yard, he said that the motor on the pool pump system did not sound right. He said that he wanted to replace the motor assembly and would show me the maintenance steps when he returned the following week with the replacement motor.
On November 13th, I texted him to ask when he would be coming to replace the motor. He said between 2 and 3 pm. 2:00 PM came and went with no contact from him.
On November 14th, after waiting all day for him to come to install the motor, I had no contact from him again.
On Friday. November 15th. I called Tucson Pool and Spa to find out the status of the service offered. A woman answered the phone and I explained that the technician did not show up on either the 13th or the 14th , all without any word from the technician, or the office. Therefore, I requested another service technician to come out to replace the motor. The woman on the other end of the phone said "Guess he kind of dropped the ball on that" with no other explanations or apologies.
Then she said that I was on the schedule for the following Monday the 18th. As I had an appointment the morning of the 18th, I requested that they schedule the call for the afternoon. The woman told me she would make a note to have hime come in the afternoon.
On Monday, November 18th, I found myself waiting all afternoon for the technician to show. I received no texts. I received no phone calls. And I received no apologies for my time being wasted for a third day.
On Tuesday, November 19th, I went to Tucson Pool and Spa to speak to someone in person about the seeming indifference to my wasted time and to seek an explanation and some resolution. I was put in touch with Josh, whom I was told was the manager. Again, Josh was rather unapologetic about the wasted time and said he would look into it and get back to me. Later that day, Josh called me to say the technician would be out the next day.
On Wednesday, November 20th, the technician texted me at 7:25 AM letting me know that the office told him I had been there and that he will be out to my house the following day as he had called in sick this day. I let him know that I had the hours of 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM Available.
On Thursday, November 21st at 12:15 PM, the technician showed up and proceeded to show me the service and maintenance on the filters that I had asked for. The technician commented that he was still waiting for the part and would be working the following Monday and Tuesday and would install the new part then. I commented that it would be right before Thanksgiving. but he assured me that he would do it. Monday and Tuesday came and went, so I let the holiday pass to give Tucson pool and spa the time to get the replacement part.
On December 4th I called TPS and was told that Josh was in the warehouse and would call me when he gets back. Later that day Josh called me and said "we'll call you when the part comes in".
On January 6th, 2025, I called the manufacturer of the pump filter system and spoke with somone who told me that there was no order on record for my pool pump/filter nor was there any order for pool parts since Nov 19th. After hearing that my part had never even been ordered I called Tucson Pool and Spa and asked to speak with Josh and was told again that he is "in the warehouse and will get back to me when he gets back". Josh has yet to return my phone call.
It is now the end of January. I spent over $5000 for a new pool pump filtration system from Tucson Pool and Spa. However, I assume that decent customer service is extra. I found their technicians, salespeople and office managers indifferent. They obviously lied about the order and are playing games and deceiving customers. Managers do not get back in touch with you, and they are apparently unabashed at their unprofessionalism and lack of courtesy. It is the same behavior I've read in several other reviews on this company. Avoid this business if you want to avoid unprofessional, dishonest, unreliable service. And indifference to wasting customers' time. read more
