They cannot service my hot tub.
Description of Work: I called because I need my hot tub repaired. I have used Budd's in the past for my swimming pool and have been to the retail store. I have been pleased with them in the past so I thought I would use them to fix my hot tub. They said they only repair hot tubs that were purchased from them. That's disappointing. This should be noted somewhere in there services.

Description of Work: As a new homeowner and first-time pool owner, I was both mystified and paralyzed by the gigantic four foot pool nestled just beyond the treeline of my house. I love to swim, always have, and have always thought it would be wonderful to have a pool of my very own but the idea of actually having a pool was intimidating. More than that, it was terrifying! I didn't know where to begin when getting ready to open my pool. Fortunately, Budd's Pools and Spas was available, ready, willing, and able to come to my rescue. | |From the first contact with Budd's to my visit with the team of employees that came out to open my pool, the experience was terrific. The guys were great at explaining what I needed to do to make sure I had a summer full of fun times in my pool. They helped get it up and running, examined my equipment and ordered new parts where necessary, and walked me through the basics that a first time pool owner needed to know about having a pool. They were friendly, straightforward, easy to understand, and weren't at all condescending to this first time pool guy. I felt like I learned a lot and that I was ready to head into the summer after talking with them. | |Since Budd's opened my pool for me, my family, friends, and I have had a great time using our pool and we will absolutely use Budd's again for our pool opening, closing, and other needs. I highly recommend the team at Budd's Pools and Spas!

Description of Work: they opened and closed my pool, at the closing they stated that when they |opened the pool the following year I would need a repair that I was given |a written estimate of $650. When they opened the pool I reminded them of the |work & showed the estimate they gave me. The not only refused to honor the |estimate; after going back & forth they said they would only honor it if |I would purchase new railings at the cost of $650, since my railings were fine I refused and they steadfastly refused to honor their estimate. Since |that happended I learned that this is not unusual for them

After looking at your records we have not serviced your pool since 2011. You were given a quote to replace ladder cups the year before and chose not to do at that time. Our quotes are good for 90 days. The price went up the following year due to cost increase and you chose not to do the work. I'm sorry you were unhappy with our prices.

All installations went flawlessly. Water testing on site is excellent for giving exact instructions on keeping pool beautiful. Have been using them since 1989 and would not change to any other pool supplier.

They were excellent. They did good work and they were very helpful, good advisers. They in fact saved me money by advising me to get a less expensive but equally effective cover. I have enrolled them to come yearly to open and close the pool.

They did a great job in everything they did. They were prompt and professional, and explained to me how to maintain the pool. I had never owned a pool before so that was extremely helpful. If one has never owned a pool Budd's Pools is a great choice.
Description of Work: Budd's opened my pool for the summer, they replaced the pump and filter for the pool, and they closed the pool at the end of the season.

Our hot tub had been neglected for a long time. I called Budd's to come out and winterize it. The tech came and cleaned the tub. He told me there was some build up in the lines and he cleaned them all out. He also explained exactly what to do when I decide to open the tub next season. I was extremely pleased with his work and professionalism. I would hire the company again.

The interaction was good. They did a good job. They were on time, no problem. They did what they were supposed to do and did a good job. The price was right. I would tell other Angie's List members that they are a good place to do business with. They called me back, prompt, had the numbers, good to do business with, that's all.

This company was good!! After a terrible experience with another pool company, they squeezed us in and came at 7:30 on a Friday night and estimated the repair cost They fixed part of our leak problem for $ 250.00 when other companies estimates were $1300. The service manager was honest even though I didn't want to hear bad news, and didn't sugar coat any of our pool issues. He was direct and to the point We will use this pool company for all our pool services and repairs.

Budd's Pools & Spas did a lot more work than we originally planned on doing. Originally, we were just going to have the liner replaced and then while they were here, we decided we wanted to do the edging of the pool over. They also said our pipes are 30 years old and we might want to have them replaced while the concrete is all torn up from re-doing the edging. We had saved the money just for the liner, but after we thought about it, we decided to have it all done. There was probably one other small thing done, that was not originally in the plans. It looks like a brand new pool. So we were really happy. We were very, very pleased with them. I had one little problem and I'm still waiting for that to get resolved. We have steps going into the pool and they have parts that hold the liner in place around the steps. When they ripped everything apart, they got rid of those parts because it was old. We haven't gotten the new parts in yet. We had talked to the guy and he said they're no longer making those parts with that size. They're just not available to buy new, so I can't just put that problem on them. I they had known ahead time, they could have kept them instead of throwing them away. So, I'm left here without the parts I need. The screws hold the steps in place have no cover and we can see the rust on the screws. So we're still waiting for the parts. They had told us they had some old parts from another pool they could put in our pool back in February, but I still haven't heard from them. Otherwise, they were great. We had them do stamped concrete and they did a wonderful job. One day, I was worried that the workers were going to knock out a pool wall, but they wouldn't listen to me, so I called their boss and he came right away to show them what to do. The wall ended up being perfectly straight, so we didn't have any issues with that. They listened to what we wanted. The project ended up taking a little longer than they thought it would. The workers were great and I have no complaint with them. I still am grading them with all A's. They came when they said they would and did what they were supposed to do. They put the cement down on one of the hottest days of the year. It was over 100 degrees outside. I kept bringing drinks out there. They were working their butts off to get it done before the cement dried on them, because it was drying quick with the heat.
Description of Work: They replaced our liner, remodeled the edging on our pool, replaced some pipes and added a new chlorinator to it.

We have used them before, so we chose to used them again. They have been very good, very patient with us. We have been looking at getting a pool for years, and we finally worked out a design we could use. We had also used them many years ago at another house we had. We had a very good experience with them.
Description of Work: We are using this company to install an above ground pool. They have not installed the pool yet, that will get done later this month. They just recently came out to give us an estimate, they haven't built it yet.
