He installed motor and wired it up. He also repaired a PITA leak from the spa light fixture, so water would not short out the new motor. Travis ain't cheap, but good value to get spa back up and running at fraction of cost of newer models-if you can get one (delivery's are 3+ months out). He a nice guy to talk to and learn from as he goes if you care to ask.

YOUVE BEEN WARNED!!!…read more WARNING ABOUT Grady's Pool Service, Inc. - Pool Contractor in Bakersfield & Central Coast, CA Swimming pool contractor I feel compelled to share my experience with Grady's Pool Service & Construction (operating online at gradyspools.com) -- a company that is led by Mark Grady, a pool builder and general contractor. Their website touts "20+ years in the pool business" and custom pool design, build, remodel, and repair services in Paso Robles, Templeton, Atascadero, and the Central Coast. However, my experience was extremely negative and serves as a serious warning to other homeowners considering hiring this contractor. What Happened in My Case Before hiring him, my loan company refused financing because he was on a contractor blacklist due to active lawsuits -- a red flag I later confirmed after issues began. I was given an alternative financing method and, trusting his explanation, entered a contract for a full pool build. Payments were tied to construction milestones because I had no traditional pool loan oversight. During the build, many construction errors occurred, clearly due to poor supervision and bad direction from Mark. Multiple portions of the build are out of building code, which means they must be demolished and redone before final inspection can pass. He was absent during most of the build, showing up mainly when money was due. He promised to install a saltwater system but claimed it should wait until water chemistry was balanced -- then changed his number and disappeared. Subcontractors were not paid by him and attempted to place liens against my property because of unpaid bills, forcing me into months of conflict. This is particularly troubling given other reports showing mixed review experiences for this business. Important Facts Other Homeowners Should Know Despite claiming certifications and years of experience on gradyspools.com, project execution was severely lacking. The still never passed a final building inspection. The promised saltwater pool system was never installed. Costly code violations must be corrected. Subcontractors attempted to place liens on my property due to Mark not paying them. After repeated attempts to communicate about job defects, Mark effectively abandoned the project and changed contact information.

Pacific Outdoor completely redid our backyard, front yard landscaping, put pavers on the driveway,…read morebuilt us a pool, and we couldn't be happier!! They transformed the outside of our home, and it now looks and feels like a magazine spread! Just today, I received compliments from two separate strangers on the front yard. We constantly get compliments on the appearance of our home. Samantha was the landscape architect who created the design, and it was amazing to see her lay out the vision. She saved us space in ways I definitely couldn't have conceived of on my own. She said the remodel would be like doubling our living space, and she was right! Scott oversaw the construction from start to finish. He was very attentive and obviously cared about and was fully invested in the success of the project. He had an expertise with plants and gave great guidance to give me the colors I wanted in plants that would work for our space and the SoCal heat. I am constantly smiling at the plants Scott suggested. They are thriving, and I wouldn't change a thing. The crew was respectful, clean and did a beautiful job. It was a long project, but Pacific Outdoor kept their initial timeline. Our main reason for going with Pacific Outdoor was that they were a one-stop shop. They could do everything. They truly delivered, and it is better than we ever imagined! It was so easy to look at their choices and select what we wanted. They had a wide variety of design choices. We replaced most of the grass in the back with their pavers and used the same pavers for our driveway. They look fantastic. We have a neighbor that had Pacific Outdoor build them a firepit that they love. We received great guidance and attention from the full team all along the way. They didn't quit until the project was finished to our satisfaction. As I float in our beautiful pool and eat tangerines off of my new tree, I feel like a queen and couldn't be happier after choosing Pacific Outdoor! Our family highly recommends them!

These guys did a wonderful job on both my driveway and a patio in my backyard after I decided to…read morefill in my pool. (They had also done an excellent job on the pool deck five years earlier, before I knew I was going to fill in the pool.) I have been very pleased with the results, which have really elevated my enjoyment of my home's outdoor areas. I would also caution anyone considering going with System Pavers to steer clear of those crooks. I wasted thousands of dollars having them do a terrible job on my pool deck, and had to have Pacific rip out their work and fix it. It was an expensive mistake that I hope to save others from repeating. If I had gone with Pacific in the first place, I would have saved lots of money and hassle. Some pictures of the driveway, patio, and now-defunct pool deck are included here.

After a solid recommendation for a oool contractor, we contacted Ian and Tami Charnley at Barefoot…read morePools in Paso Robles, CA. We were immediately impressed with their professionalism, knowledge and interest. Their timely estimate was very reasonable and comprehensive. Their crews were everything you could want. They showed up early and stayed until their work was done. One of the best crews I've ever seen, and I've worked with many contractors. Their attention to detail and thoughtful suggestions were spot on. What more could you want! I was so pleased I cooked lunch for them at the end of the job. When the pool was completed, another service provider suggested them for landscaping services. Ian had started as a landscaper and his thoughts and expertise complimented my vague vision perfectly. Again, the crews were timely and genuinely interested in our project. I couldn't be more pleased. I highly recommend them for both pool construction and landscaping.
