Travel charges from our location in Raleigh to Zebulon (along with areas that are outside of the immediate Triangle area) are a standard fee; I am sorry you were not happy with the charge.

"This customer has been extremely satisfied since this report was posted, even though it hasn't been amended. We have continued to service their spa weekly for them since this post and have had no complaints since. The electrical work they are referring to was done by a sub contractor they hired and paid independently so I can not attest to their work, but the members are happy with Rising Sun. We will strive to keep them satisfied and we look forward to serving them for many years to come."
"Thank you for your feedback and more importantly, thank you for your business. I am thrilled to hear that we lived up to your expectations and were able to provide you with a wonderful end product, I have no doubt this summer will be a great one with your new pool! Please contact me directly with what slide you want and the turn (left or right) and color choice, if applicable; I am confident I can work you up a great deal! [email protected] - I look forward to working with you! Tara"

"THIS MEMBER DID IN FACT CALL US OUT FOR A PROBLEM WITH HER SALT SYSTEM ON JUNE 9. OUR TECHNICIAN CAME OUT ON JUNE 19TH AFTER THE CUSTOMER HAD TO RESCHEDULE THE APPOINTMENT BECAUSE SHE WOULDN'T BE HOME. MY TECHNICIAN NOTICED THAT THE BOX UNIT, NOT JUST THE CELL, WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER AND GOT APPROVAL TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE UNIT COMPLETELY SINCE IT WAS UNDER A YEAR OLD. TYPICAL PROTOCOL IS TO REPLACE COMPONENTS ONLY ON UNITS AFTER 90 DAYS OLD BUT WE DECIDED TO REPLACE THE WHOLE UNIT FOR GOOD CUSTOMER RELATIONS. MY TECHNICIAN DID CLEAN THE CELL AS WELL THAT DAY. THIS VISIT WAS A BILLABLE CHARGE SINCE WE WERE REQUESTED TO COME OUT AND JUST CLEAN THE CELL, THE REPLACEMENT OF THE UNIT ON THE NEXT VISIT WAS ALL DONE AT NO CHARGE. ON THIS VISIT MY TECHNICIAN DID MEET WITH THE CUSTOMER AND REVIEWED OPERATIONS WITH HER AND THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS REPORTED. MY NEXT TECHNICIANS' VISIT WAS ON JUNE 28, AFTER HAVING TO BE RESCHEDULED AGAIN BECAUSE THE CUSTOMER WANTED TO BE HOME AND WOULD NOT BE AT THE TIME OF OUR SCHEDULED VISIT. WE CAME OUT AND REPLACED THE THE COMPLETE CONTROL UNIT AND AGAIN OUR TECHNICIAN MET WITH MEMBER AND ANSWERED HER QUESTIONS AT THE SYSTEM. THE MEMBER DID NOT CALL US AGAIN UNTIL JULY 23, ALMOST A MONTH LATER, THAT THERE WAS A "DRIP" AT THE CELL WHEN THE PUMP RUNS. SCHEDULING FYI: WHEN CUSTOMERS POOL SYSTEMS ARE NONOPERATIONAL THEY GET PRIORITY, NON-VITAL CALLS (SMALL LEAKS, NOISES ETC.) USUALLY TAKE ABOUT 4-5 BUSINESS DAYS TO SCHEDULE AND SINCE IT TOOK THE MEMBER A MONTH TO LET US KNOW THERE WAS A DRIP WE DIDN'T LIST IT AS AN EMERGENCY CALL. WE SCHEDULED THE CALL FOR JULY 30, BUT THE CUSTOMER AGAIN ASKED TO BE RESCHEDULED. WE RESCHEDULED FOR AUGUST 5 AND AT THAT POINT THE CUSTOMER CANCELED THE SERVICE CALL. IT IS UNFORTUNATE THAT AFTER THE BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP WE HAD DEVELOPED WITH THIS MEMBER SHE FELT THE NEED THE NEED TO CALL ANOTHER COMPANY TO HAVE WHAT WOULD HAVE BEEN A WARRANTY CALL ADDRESSED. THERE ARE MANAGERS AND OWNERS IN THE STORE EVERY DAY TO HANDLE MATTERS OF THIS SORT SO WE DON'T LOOSE CUSTOMERS BUSINESS AND TRUST. IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER ISSUES WE WILL BE ABLE TO HANDLE THEM AND ALL WARRANTY CALLS FOR HER POOL AND EQUIPMENT. MY ONLY WORD OF ADVICE FOR MEMBERS IS IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH WORK PERFORMED PLEASE LET THE SERVICER KNOW IMMEDIATELY SO WORK CAN BE RESCHEDULED AND PERFORMED IN A TIMELY FASHION."
"FIRST OF ALL I HAVE TO SAY THAT WE NEVER LIKE TO LOSE A CUSTOMER AND I HAVE DEALT WITH THE MEMBER MYSELF ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS SO I AM DISAPPOINTED THAT SHE FEELS OUR COMPANY LET HER DOWN. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS REPORT AND AM A LITTLE CONFUSED AS TO WHY THE REPORT WAS MADE ON JUNE 11, YET WE CAME OUT ON JULY 11TH AND DID THE REPAIRS ON THE SCHEDULED DATE AND AT THE SCHEDULED TIME. WITH THAT BEING SAID, I DO SEE WHERE WE HAVE MADE 2 WARRANTY CALLS TO HER HOUSE AT ABSOLUTELY NO CHARGE BECAUSE IT WAS WARRANTY. WE DO NOT CHARGE "TRANSPORTATION FEES" ON NEW POOL WARRANTY CALLS FOR A PERIOD OF 3 YEARS. THIS FEE SHE IS REFERRING TO (FOR NON-WARRANTY CALLS) IS A TRAVEL CHARGE THAT WE CHARGE FOR ACCOUNTS OUT OF A CERTAIN AREA SO WE DO NOT HAVE TO INCREASE OUR SERVICE FEES OVERALL BUT SPECIFICALLY WHERE IT COSTS MORE FOR MILEAGE AND FUEL. SHE PAID THIS "TRAVEL CHARGE" ON BOTH HER POOL OPENING AND CLOSING OVER THE LAST YEAR WITHOUT DISPUTE. AS FAR AS THE MISSED APPOINTMENTS, I'M NOT SURE WHAT HAPPENED AND I KNOW THAT TWO OF THE OWNERS, INCLUDING MYSELF, HAVE SPOKEN SEVERAL TIMES WITH THE MEMBER AND WE HAVE NOT LISTED ANY CONCERNS UNDER HER ACCOUNT. HER SERVICE CALL WAS PLACED IN THE SYSTEM ON JULY 9TH, WITH A NOTE FOR THE WORK TO BE DONE ON JULY 11TH, FIRST STOP (WHICH MEANS 9 OR 9:30AM). OUR TECHNICIAN SHOWED UP ON JULY 11TH AT 9:15 AND LEFT AT 10:35. IF WE COME AND THE CUSTOMER IS NOT HOME WE LEAVE A NOTE SO THEY KNOW WE WERE THERE, NOT THAT WE DIDN'T PERFORM SERVICE. THE FIRST STOP IS THE ONLY TIME OF THE DAY WE CAN GUARANTEE A TIME AND NOT HAVE TO GIVE CUSTOMERS A WINDOW OF TIME (LIKE CABLE COMPANIES) THAT IS FOR EXAMPLE LIKE BETWEEN 12 AND 5. WE ARE VERY UPFRONT THAT CUSTOMERS DO NOT NEED TO BE HOME FOR THESE TYPES OF REPAIRS (ESPECIALLY A CUSTOMER WHO WE'VE DONE SEVERAL CALLS ON THEIR PROPERTY PREVIOUSLY THEY HADN'T NEEDED TO BE HOME). THE CALL I BELIEVE SHE IS SPEAKING ABOUT WAS TO SUCK WATER OUT FROM BEHIND THE LINER BECAUSE OF ALL THE RAIN WE HAD HAD AND DUE TO DRAINAGE ISSUES ON HER LOT. DRAINAGE ISSUES ARE THE ONLY REASON FOR THIS TO OCCUR BESIDES EXCESSIVE, FLOODING RAINS. NEITHER CAN WE DETERMINE NOR PREDICT. WE QUOTED HER APPROXIMATELY $200 FOR THIS REPAIR AND IT HAS YET TO BE BILLED OUT AND SENT TO HER. I AGAIN REGRET TO LOOSE A GOOD CUSTOMER BUT NO ONE EITHER IN MY SERVICE DEPARTMENT OR MANAGERIAL STAFF HAVE ANY RECORDS OF ISSUES THAT SHOULD WARRANT SUCH POOR GRADES AS THE MEMBER ISSUED US HERE. THANK YOU."
"UNFORTUNATELY IN THIS BUSINESS WE HAVE TO HAVE A TUB FILLED IN ORDER TO TEST IT AFTER IT IS EMPTIED FOR REPAIRS, MAJORITY OF CUSTOMERS DO NOT TO PAY US HOURLY TO STAND THERE AND WATCH THERE TUB FILL UP. AFTER THE REPAIRS ARE COMPLETED AND THE TUB IS ABLE TO BE TESTED WE HAVE TO TAKE THE CUSTOMERS WORD THAT THERE IS IS STILL A PROBLEM. HOWEVER, IF THERE IS NO PROBLEM WE HAVE TO COVER OUR COST TO DIAGNOSE IT. IF WE DIDN'T DO THIS WE COULDN'T PROTECT OURSELVES FROM HAVING OUR TECHNICIANS RUN NOTHING BUT WRONGFUL SERVICE CALLS BECAUSE THERE WOULD BE NO LIABILITY ON THE CUSTOMER TO ENSURE THERE IS ACTUALLY A PROBLEM. WE WARRANTY OUR WORK AND IF THERE IS STILL A PROBLEM AND IT IS RELATED TO THE WORK ALREADY PERFORMED WE WILL COVER IT. I APOLOGIZE THAT THIS CUSTOMER HAD A BAD EXPERIENCE."
