Stay Away from Passion Pools - A Costly Nightmare…read more I contracted Melvin from Passion Pools in April 2024 to build an in-ground swimming pool for $71,000. I was supposed to have a completed pool with only a $5,000 final payment remaining -- but here I am, over a year later, out $89,000 with an unfinished project and still unable to swim. Throughout the build, Melvin repeatedly asked for more money for materials and work that were clearly included in our contract. Why was I still buying materials at the end of the job? He constantly made excuses, even telling me he had to "take money from other jobs" to finish mine. That is not my responsibility -- it's completely unprofessional. He asked for advances to go to a funeral in Tennessee. Despite being fully paid for several aspects of the project, including an $8,000 retaining wall, the wall remains incomplete and is missing caps. This wall has set for 3 month unfinished and unpainted. The decking around the pool is unfinished. My pool lights do not work properly. The heat pump I was given is a used, low-BTU aftermarket unit that trips regularly. I was never told what chemicals to use or given any guidance on maintenance. The front and back yard were dug up and never restored -- I now have large areas of exposed soil that will likely cost me an additional $20-$30K to fix. Melvin worked at a painfully slow pace -- showing up only once a week for a few hours -- and frequently asked for advance payments, including once for a funeral. Meanwhile, I've paid $89,000, and my pool is still not finished. Passion Pools breached the contract by failing to deliver what was agreed upon. Very unprofessional, yelling and curing his workers out that my neighbors heard it. He even promised my neighbor he'd repair their grass, which is still a muddy mess. Unsurprisingly, he's now disappeared and moved on to the next victim. I feel as if I have been robbed. His excuse for previous bad reviews, which you can see on Yelp and other review sites, is that people want to bring a black man down. I am black and this is just business. He robbed me for his own gain. He never had intentions to finish this pool. To make matters worse, he appears to have scrubbed all prior negative Google reviews. He will likely respond to this claiming I didn't pay him or didn't pay on time -- I have all the receipts and text messages. His receipts were handwritten on black paper with no accounting system -- completely unprofessional and shady. With the pool and retaining wall unfinished, I am unburying myself out of a $100,00 nightmare. Thank you for ruining my whole experience. This was my first experience building a pool, and it's been a nightmare I wouldn't wish on anyone. Do not trust Passion Pools. I'll see him in court.

I called the city myself after 6 months and they said there was no permit application ever submitted. After I pushed it we got the permit. They were paid well in advance of the progression of the project, but when they would finish another step they begged for the next check and complained they were late after a few days. They were paid 90% of the project with only 70% completed. We had to get a lawyer to sue them to finish, which they eventually did, but only after I spent thousands of dollars in legal fees. It's very sad and unfortunate. I honestly don't know how they stay in business it's so bad. They used to be very good, but I have to say something to keep others from going through what we did. I'm very sorry to say.

Do not hire this company! On April 15, 2026, I hired Luis Florez to repair 2 areas on my pool (one…read morepatch in the pool finish and one repair in the tile area of my connected spa), acid wash the bottom, and replace 2 lights. The only reason I am giving a 1 star review is because the 2 guys that completed the patch job were decent. The work started on April 16, 2026, at 8:30 am. The 2 tile guys that Luis sent out to do the tile work appeared to have no previous experience in tile work. They re-used rusted tile, installed chipped tile, installed cut sided tile on the outside edges instead of the cut side being on the inside, tiles were not flush on the edges, and the grout lines were horrible. After numerous phone calls and text messages, the tile job was completed at 6:50 pm. What should have taken 4-5 hours took over 10 hours! The acid wash made the bottom of my pool look worse than before and the bottom of my spa is now yellow! With regards to the replacement of the 2 pool lights, Luis provided me with a printed quote issued by Heritage Pool Supply for $2,680.00 (This was the price for 2 lights with his contractor discount as indicated on the quote). Please note that this was the price just for the lights, the installation was an additional $150.00 per light). Once the installation was complete, I asked him to provide the paid invoice so that I would have it for warranty purposes. After several requests for it, he finally provided it on April 21, 2026, 4 days later......and his cost was actually $1,871.18 (that is $808.82 less than the written quote he provided!) If I had purchased the 2 lights, the cost would have only been $2,255.68. To top it off, the 2 lights were not even installed correctly as they fell out of the pool and spa walls on the 18th. I have retained all of the text messages, photos, and written documentation to support ALL of the above issues should anyone want to confirm my review. Luis was blatantly dishonest and provided unsatisfactory work. Do not hire!!!!
