It started out good but a few months after the job was complete and paid in full
We noticed chipped tile and coping, The plaster started to pit and change color...
Callahan plastering ruined our pool
We called the office many times but no one would return our calls
Finally George stopped by and said "it is what it"is and the waranty does not cover what happens to the color or pitting and said the tiles were already chipped
After some research we come to find out that David Callahan had retired
and some one else is running the business.
Our pool is ruined and we are out $12 thousand dollars
Update: Aothough my first contact was in 2009, I did call Callahan back last summer to do the work of replastering, and re-tiling my pool. They did a good job, and we are very happy with the work. George was helpful and patient as I went through picking the tile and coping.
"WE WANT TO THANK THE MEMBER FOR HER WORK. UNFORTUNATELY SHE FORGOT TO MENTION THAT WE HAD TO STOP HER JOB SO SHE COULD HAVE ANOTHER COMPANY INSTALL HER SKIMMERS. BECAUSE OF THAT, WE HAD TO STOP ALL OF OUR WORK UNTIL THEY COMPLETED THEIR JOB. THE OTHER COMPLAINT SHE SEEMED TO HAVE WAS WITH ANOTHER COMPANY WHO DELIVERED WATER. WE CANNOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SCHEDULES AND PROBLEMS THAT ANOTHER COMPANY MIGHT HAVE WHILE DOING SOMETHING THAT WE DID NOT CONTRACT WITH OUR CUSTOMERS FOR. NEITHER WERE WE PAID ANY MONIES FOR THE WORK THAT CAUSED HER THE PROBLEMS. WHEN THE MEMBER CALLED I TRIED TO EXPLAIN THAT THE WATER CARRIER WAS NOT PART OF OUR COMPANY BECAUSE SHE WANTED OUR COMPANY TO FIX THE PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY. I THEN TOLD HER THAT SHE WOULD NEED TO CONTACT THE WATER CARRIER AND GAVE HER THE PHONE NUMBER. SOMETIMES INSTEAD OF FILLING A POOL COMPLETELY TO THE TOP WITH A WATER TRUCK INCURRING ADDITIONAL COSTS, CUSTOMERS CHOOSE TO TOP OFF THE POOL WITH A HOSE. WHICH THE MEMBER CHOSE TO DO. OCCASIONALLY THERE MIGHT BE A SMALL PROBLEM WITH OUR WORK. WHAT THE MEMBER DID NOT MENTION IS THAT SHE DID NOT CALL US TO LET US KNOW THAT THE EQUALIZER BETWEEN POOL AND SPA WAS COVERED OVER. MOST NEW POOLS DO NOT HAVE AN EQUALIZER BETWEEN THE POOL AND SPA. WE WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE THAN HAPPY TO FIX THIS MINOR PROBLEM."
