Great service. Ongoing use for about 10 monthes now
Description of Work: I contacted Rick Thorton from a lead I got on Angies List... I had my swimming pool replastered and new tile installed, I used Rick for the start up and have used him every since. The crew comes every Friday AM for me and treats the water, cleans the tile and vacumns.... The pool is always left spakeling and O' yeah they always "spritz" the water with a freshener of some sort that keeps it smelling fresh.... I heat the pool and Jacuzzi a lot and they pay special attention to the chemical because the heat uses it fairly fast.... They also offer to clean your filter once a year or as often as you wish..... Nestor is my pool guy.

It went very well. Rick was there at the time promised and completed the work as quickly as possible. He also gave me plenty of tips to help me maintain my spa by myself and keep the water in balance.

Rick was right on time. I had asked him to check out my spa because it had been sitting empty for a couple of years. He said there would be NO CHARGE to check things out. He spent at least 1/2 hour checking out the hoses, the controls, etc.. He told me everything was good to go (which was true), and he was not going to charge me a dime. I asked him to add a few chemicals and help me clean it out a bit so there would be SOMETHING for which to charge me! He agreed, spent more time, asked me for $30. Extremely reasonable. Honest, punctual and pleasant. If he had been any nicer or more fair, he would have paid ME to come over. If and when things go wrong with my spa, I will call him and use his service again. I may use him to come over on a regular basis to service the spa. Very fair prices for this service.

My grandchildren were in town and planned a pool party at my home. Although I had used the heater a few weeks before, when I turned it on Sunday for the Tuesday party, it wouldn't work. Monday I started early, calling pool repair companies. (My previous repairman had retired.) I left messages with several, had two answering services tell me they would call right back, (they didn't). Then I reached Thornton. He said he would stop by before noon, he did. He diagnosed a faulty transformer and promised to visit a warehouse to see if he could find a replacement and fix it that day. He returned late afternoon with the part after visiting two different supply houses. He installed it successfully, cleaned the heater coils, and wished me a happy pool party. It was.
