Swimming Pool Opening & Closing Service
$1,180
This company was not upfront with their pricing at all. I feel like I was robbed. I was expecting to pay about $300 for my pool to be closed for the year. That is roughly what I have paid in the past 2 years. This company did not tell me that they were going to charge $203/hr between 2 people. They did no other repairs, just felt like charging $1,100 to close a pool. I did not know I was going to be paying someone what I would pay my lawyer to close my pool. I would never have used this company if I would have known I was going to be paying over $1,000 to close a pool. That is insane how they feel comfortable charging that much. There are so many other great pool companies in Springfield to choose from. Please take my advice and use an honest company. I will never use this ridiculous company again.
Response from Indian Summer Pool and Spa
"Chris, This is Doug Fender and I spoke to you about the service of your pool and about additional critical issues that needed to be addressed before the winter set in. I came out to close your pool and found that the pool was far from properly drained. You were instructed n writing to have your pool drained down to several inches below the returns. Our paperwork that you signified you read by signing it, plainly states that you would be charged for time to pump the pool down to the required level to close the pool it was not drained when we arrived. We also described that we fill the lines with antifreeze to insure that there is no chance of any freeze-related damage to the lines. Lastly, we are very open to discussing our hourly rates and they are competitive with local competition. There was no involvement with your service that we provided per the written agreement you read and signed. You did not have the pool drained. You were charged for the time it took to get it drained and then the subsequent closing. It is unfortunate you either did not pay attention to what you were supposed to read, or what you were required to do to properly prepare for the closing. Unfortunately for you, this is not our fault, it is yours and your attempt to discredit our premium services for your lack of attention to detail is sadly the state of affairs today."

This was a horrible experience for my husband and myself. Once they started the project we were having to prepay for work not yet completed and when we complained we were told tehy would not complete the job unless we prepaid for it. We paid for the upgrade glass pebble swimming pool floor and it looks horrible. This also included the installation of an in-ground hot tub and again the glass pebble floor was uneven, blotchy and just looked horrendous. The hot tub leaked to the point we could not even use it and had to have it filled in. They are dishonest and one of the worst experiences we have ever had. We feel as if we were incredibly ripped-off.
Response from Indian Summer Pool and Spa
"This customer attempt to discredit our company with their skewed view of what happened 7 years after the completion of the project is just another example of their family way of dealing with us and the several other subcontractors on the project. For those who would like a full view from both sides please visit the Springfield Mo. area BBB where we have an A+ rating. There you will find the complete story equally from both perspectives. We try our best to please all of our customers, but unfortunately, the mark was off with these customers. Julie husband was hostile almost from the start of the project. It created a very negative situation while we finished the project. We have not been back on the project since we finished it 7 years ago, so as far as the spa leaking, proper winterizing is crucial in these parts. There was never a call from this customer about any leak at any time after we completed the project when there was no leak present. We offer a 100% guarantee on our pool & spa closings and a 3-year warranty on our installed products. They did not avail themselves of our services after the build. I cannot speak to the capabilities of the person they used for their pool & spa closings or what happened after we finished up the project. The pool and spa were functioning as designed & contracted and had fulfilled the contract to where Julie reported to the BBB that the pool and spa were appropriately completed and acceptable to her. Sorry for their issues but it was not created by our work or business."

As a new home owner, I am more the thrilled by the high quality of work done by Indian Summer Pool and Spa. I called Doug Fender (one of the owners), who made an immediate appointment with me to discus my plans to expand my patio, along with three other companies. Doug when through all available options, costs and expectations on the job I wanted done. Not only did he have a great team of employee's show up on time, they had everything organized from ground prep, rock deliver, concrete delivery, and temporary fencing down to the minute. I was very impressed with the owners showing up to make sure that I as a home owner was happy with each step of the process and that every employee was very efficient and knew their area of expertise. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing work done on a project you want done right. Just a note not only did the come in on budget, but the other companies I called did not have any where the game plans or explain the details of what to expect. This is a company you will be happy with.

Great communication and very helpful with great ideas, Doug Fender and Craig Fender whom we have also contracted to build our in ground pool (owner Fender Bros. construction / Indian summer pool and spa) have really went out the way to get this huge project underway, from talking to our HOA architect board answering questions for them, and changing the pool project several times for my wife and I. The project is just underway and I will keep you updated as it moves along, Great

We are very happy we hired Indian Summer to build our pool. They did a quality job and our backyard is so beautiful now. They are very nice, genuine people to deal with and I would recommend them. They paid special attention to asthetics, quality, and a job done right.
