Another pool project dead in the water. People need to be held accountable.
Something so peaceful has not been such. 9 months later and we still are trying to get this project done.
The end goal was to have a beautiful outdoor oasis to retreat to after a long days work. The hustle and bustle of a typical work day does not end when trying to fight to keep things going with a pool build.
The purpose of this site is to capture my experience with this pool adventure so that you are better informed with detailed information in hopes that it will allow you to make a more informed decision on your pool builder.
The initial introduction to AffordAPools & Spa was very pleasant. Financing options were also streamlined. We met with Steve and Michael several times before making the decision to move forward. contracts were signed and things were underway.
The project began in late June 2024 and as of today the pool is not completed. By not completed I mean the following items are not completed:
- Electrical outlet at the pool pump panel. Aside from the outlet not being usable because of it’s location, it is not wired up.
- The entire pump system was never configured correctly. This leaves the heater and the over all function of the automatic pool cycles inoperable.
- Grotto does not fit the pool and must be taken out.
- Jump rock – because we now have to find someone who knows how to build grottos, I don’t want to have to match the jump rock
- No auto cleaning robot “Was included in the purchase”
- No chemicals for the pool. That’s right I had to put chemicals in the pool when it was filled initially.
- No skimmer net
- No pool brush and pole
- No Winter cover
- No solar cover
- Sidewalk is broken from the equipment
- Left over concrete/tools in the yard
- Electrical from 100amp pool panel to main is against code “GJ Ken”
