We worked both with Joseph and Justin in design both a pool and extended patio with summer kitchen
We worked for several weeks on the design and when we had to adjust the design for easement issue, I was told they would revert with new design. After a couple phone calls and emails, it was obvious they no longer wanted the business. Much to my surprise, 3 months later when I was about to sign a contract with different builder I received a phone call from Emerald asking if I was still interested in building a pool
Here are my other observations
Joseph is the owner and was very tough to deal with. After he shows design of the pool, he does the high pressure sales technique to get you to try to sign on the bottom line. During the process, he was calculating the changes in cost by hand vs. incorporating into computer program to ensure we got it right. Instead he calculate by hand and after I told them to take time with the cost analysis, they delivered an updated estimate which was higher than what he calculated by hand. I am glad I waited for updated cost, because I would have been very nervous with his calculations only to find out he was losing money on the deal. Not a good way to start the project. When explaining to Joseph about my desire to get quotes and designs from other pool builders, he did not appreciate my due dilligence, or have confidence with his product, to allow me to do that. My wife and I were uncomfortable as he criticized all the other competitors in an effort to get us to sign the contract.
My recommendation that if you chose to use Emerald, deal only with Justin. He is professional and takes the time to design and evaluate what is best for the customer. No high pressure sales or criticism of the competition.
