I'm making this post to inform anyone who will do business with Vance Calvin…read more He has not returned $300 of my money from renting an RV from him because of a review I left. I only had hot water 1-2 days out of the entire time I lived there. Leaks, frass. (The first leak was April 5th, less than a week after moving in. Frass noticed in the previous leak areas on May Ist for the first time) I am posting this because we had a money exchange and he kept $300, when I even was nice and suggested he keep $258 additional that he owed. He has his own responses, but I also have my own proof and will be filing complaints.

The nightmare of dealing with Montgomery Custom Pools is like dealing with the most dysfunctional…read morefamily member in your life. Sales sold us our pool and claimed that if the build took longer than 6 weeks, there was a problem. The build took a lot longer and sales quit taking our calls. We never knew from day to day if anyone would be at our house to work. The owner had the nerve to tell us that we lived too far and the trips to our house had killed his margin. This was after he was paid in full mind you... The owner's early 20s son basically built our pool. We are convinced we were guinea pigs for him to learn. Example: At one point, the kid buried a drainage pipe in the dirt. We brought this up to the owner who asked if we would dig it up and measure the pipe so he did not have to drive to our house. We did...unhappily...and the smell from water being stagnant and mud clogging the "drainage" hole was horrific! This sparked extreme worry as to what else was done 1/2 ways. After the build was complete, we paid to get a 2nd opinion on the plumbing as we suspected there was air in the lines based on prior experience with a pool. We had brought this up to the owner who told us that if we find the problem, to let him know; he claimed to have already checked and couldn't find anything. Turns out our 2nd opinion found the problem right away, fixed it, and let us know that the plumbing was cheaply done and we may eventually have to get it redone. The routing was too short and the piping should have been a 1/2 size larger. Not to mention, our pool equipment looks like the leaning tower of Pisa. Every day that contractors were at our house, we had to pick up garbage so our dogs wouldn't eat it (i.e. taco wrappers, drink bottles, etc.) The son had a young lady with him one day who used my backyard as a bathroom. When they were called out on it, we got to hear colorful language pertaining to us and how far we lived. We relied heavily on our backyard cameras to let us know when people were working. Again, we never knew from day to day. There was NO communication. The unfortunate part is that the company did not apply for permits with the county ahead of building our pool, so we did not have that safety in place. We also found out (from the owner) mid build that he had been fined - something to do with permits on another build. Here we are months later... We just received a letter in the mail from the gunite company threatening to put a lien on our house for non-payment. When we called the owner of Montgomery Custom Pools, there was a screaming match. P.S. we received a written piece of paper from Vance via text message that he paid the gunite company by exchanging services for a Jeep. We should not know that level of his financial situation. Nor should we have ever received a letter like that...months after our pool was "complete". He has sad stories galore and nothing is his fault. No-one should have to deal with a company like this. Unprofessional and an all-around NIGHTMARE to deal with! Caveat - we had a pool built in our previous home and know the process. Do your homework. Read reviews. Ask for reputable references. Update - June 21, 2018 We are now getting harassment texts and phone calls from the owner regarding this review. In addition, we have had to pay to get plumbing re-worked and are looking into getting concrete decking redone due to the concrete cracking. Not to mention the surface of our pool having craters. It's extremely frustrating. Again, do your homework on reputable references. Update - Sept 12, 2018 Simply warning consumers. Still receiving harassment communications regarding online reviews. It has gotten to the point where he is bullying us with threats. NOT OKAY. The positive out of this experience is meeting others that share similar horror stories from dealing with this company. Frustrating but nice to know we weren't the only ones dealing with lies.

I will update again if anything ever gets finished. I bought a lovely swim spa from Spas Unlimited a couple of years ago. We have enjoyed the spa. Noticed a few issues this spring. Reached out to Esmeralda in service. Paid a Couple hundred dollar service fee. Waited over a month for a Technician to visit. He spend about 10 mins with my spa. Enough to remove filters and the top of spa. He stated he needed a compressor to blow the lines, and the spa jets seemed glued on and were not popping off easily. He left. I truly thought he was either going to get a compressor or have lunch. He never returned. I waited another week to call Esmeralda who stated that they were "waiting to see how the owner wanted to proceed with the repair". I haven't heard back in three weeks. The request for service started back in Spring. It is now almost August. Unsure of what I paid $$ for service call. Absolutely nothing was done. I've been more than patient.

Was told that they would get someone out at earliest to fix it. Here we are in November, and still nothing. Have sent multiple requests. Also, during design phase, we decided to have pop up fountains installed, that function every time the pump is running. Wasn't told that because they pop up every time the pump runs, that we could not get a cover for the tub. And also, with any big wind events, the water is blown from the fountains out onto the ground., thus draining the tub. Again asked out Rep a month ago, if we could just cap the fountains off, because they are not worth the trouble. Was informed that they did not know if they could be capped, but would "check and get back to us". Nearly a month later, still no response. When you have work done, such as installing a hot tub / pool, I expect some level of customer service to follow / continue after completion. We cannot recommend using Accent Outdoors
