I would never recommend this company to anyone. Their professionalism as well as the ability to tell the truth was suspect. Run don't walk away from this company. In retrospect, I wish I belonged to Angie's List prior to hiring them and I will never assume that a terrific advertisement in a magazine meant a quality company or job again.
Description of Work: Phillips pools did all that they contracted for (but not as well as expected) except supply the fire pit. This fire pit had approx .$1,000 deposit on it and as of this writing Chris Phillips still has not returned my monies or delivered the pit. I was told that the first fire pit was the wrong color, the second response was that they will email me a tracking number and the final response was that they will look into the account and get back with me. The pavers look great but the detail to drainage was sad. The bar-b-que took several attempts to get it correct.

I never got the fire pit so he told me that he would give me the tracking number to see where it was. I still never got it so he said he would do the accounting and make sure the numbers are right. He told me that he owed me the $1,000. I am going by the contract and I know I didn’t get the numbers wrong. I still haven't recieved the check. He never delivered the fire pit and he still owes me $1000.00. I have never been ripped off like this before.
Description of Work: I signed a contract and they went out and started doing what the contract said. Everything was going very well for a while. When they asked for a check for the work, I made sure he had one. The last thing he had to do was install a fire pit in my yard,which was also in the contract. One time, he said it cracked and had to send it back. The second time he didn’t like the color, so he sent it back again.

Horribly. Pavers were not installed properly and caused flooding toward the home interior. Work had to be reaccomplished by another service provider. Phillips did npot pay his sib contractors which created a financial and legal noghtmare for us.
Description of Work: Hired to put pavers on a lanai. Service and execution were sub-par, Contractor was found quilty of job abandonment by the City of Tampa in Jan 2012.

A disaster from beginning to end. The only thing he focused on was getting advancements on the draw. We faced one disaster after another to include his lack of forward thinking in getting gutters installed in a timely manner during the torrential rain season here. The pitch of the pavers brought flood waters to our door and we had to contract a gutter installer to avoid further damage to our backyard. In the middle of these stressful events for the homeowner, they never had a sense of urgency about completing the job. The architect performed badly since the overall project management of the site was his responsibility. Taking more than 3 months to complete this project due to countless delays and poor planning is a reflection of blatant incompetence. Now we need to re-do the work and invest more time and money to get the project we originally envisioned. Additionally, the work site is a disaster with landscape disrupted, construction debris from end to end across the property. My neighbors are to be sainted for tolerating this for as long as it's been going on. Overall, it's been a horrible and brutal life lesson.
Description of Work: This was supposed to be a wonderful addition to my home. Included in the scope of work was a new lanai patio with pavers, spa and an outdoor fireplace and landscaping to rival Disney World. Christopher Phillips promised a "WOW" factor but we failed to qualify his meaning of the term. Here's the "WOW" as it's definition is now understood : substandard quality, over pricing, significant delays in project completion, finanical mismanagement. Our 3 month job is still unfinished after ten (10) months! Add to this his complete mismanagement of the finances for the job and you are looking at a huge problem if you contract him. The only "pool" you will be in is the "pool of tears" from realizing you've been taken for a ride should you be as foolish as we were to trust and hire him for any work. He poses as a successful businessman with high end workmanship. This couldn't be further from the truth!

We work extremely hard to deliver the highest quality workmanship and customer satisfaction. The truth of the matter is that [member name removed] stopped funding the project. Unfortunately, when a client stops paying the contractor stops working. We are owed a substantial amount of money from this client and have a lien on the property.

Their professionalism was beyond reproach. I talked with several landscaping companies and went with this company because they met my needs so well. Their follow up was wonderful - especially in regards to the pool.
Description of Work: Major landscaping and pool installation. 1200 sq feet of paver deck raised terrace and fencing and plantings as well.
