Disappointed in the service and not a person that leaves negative reviews. Several pool repairs needed to be completed with a reasonable quote. The first repair was partially completed. After I received the first bill, I contacted the office and received a call back from the manager. He did not realize the work had not been completed and assured me the work would be done; I paid bill one once the crew showed up.

I received the second bill which is now over the original quote and work still not completed. I have cameras and was charged for labor ($650.00) which included hours of time not working. I have made several calls to square up my bill and to get the work completed. The receptionist indicates that the manager will call me back yet, after 6 messages and over 2 months of calls, no call back. Disappointing.

They staff are knowledgeable and helpful when I am in store but there are not so good about following up. I special ordered one part several months ago and they never called back after placing the order. I tried getting info on another special order and they called back once to answer one of my questions. I asked a follow up question to which they said they would get back to me on. I waited a week, called back and someone told me they would call back. Waiting another week and still nobody has called back.

Was going to buy a above ground pool. Contacted this outfit and was told after a substantial deposit they might be able to get me a pool after several months. When I decided to shop elsewhere they took my email address and flooded it with spam! Avoid doing business with these lowlife!

Strongly recommend Leslie's, not this business. I got charged for hours of service that their tech was supposedly out for, when in fact it was less than 20 minutes. I got charged for 3 hours. Was told about 5 or 6x that that was definitely not right and they'd have a manager contact me ASAP. no one ever did, but rather left me with a huge bill to pay. The worst part is that they didn'teven fix the issue they came out to fix. I did! Go with Leslie's Pool and Supply and they will definitely help you out. I'll be contacting BBB about this incident as well as reviewing on yelp too.

We bought a floor model hot tub from Perfection a year ago and it was great but started having a lot of problems. We reached out to Tenaya who handled the entire issue with professionalism and determination. Since we were still within the warranty period Perfection was able to go to bat for us with the vendor and get a replacement installed for us, not an easy feat but that's exactly why we like to business locally.

We know the chance of a problem is high with any purchase and having the ability to call or email Tenaya and get a response right away was so calming. Her attention to the issue definitely kept the stress down when we couldn't otherwise de-stress in the hot tub. Happy to do business locally!
