Aaron Garcia came & priced the expansion of our existing pool in March, 2013.  They began work & immediately issues arose.
They had to first remove part of the existing pool where the expansion was to occur.  They rented a bobcat with a jack hammer on it, & the 3rd day on the job a man shows up at my door threatening to put a construction lien on my house because the bobcat was to be paid for daily & there was no payment the last two days.
Once demolition was completed, the expanded area of the pool was formed.  Two of the swim-outs that were supposed to be constructed in the east corners didn't get formed.  They rented an air compressor & again someone shows up looking for it because payment hadn't been made.
It was now May, 2013, & at this point the pool was essentially intact.  However, for several weeks nobody showed up, & it rained.  Because of the enlarged area of dirt they had removed to get equipment in for demolition, the pool actually floated up several inches.  This happened twice before anybody showed up again.  We were obviously concerned about the integrity of the pool shell, so we had a reputable pool builder look at it.  He felt that it was fine.  We were now into June.
In July we had a huge rain, & the pool actually floated up over a foot in two corners.  This busted out the decking & the plumbing & severely cracked the pool shell at the cold joint created by the expansion.  Nobody had showed up for weeks despite numerous phone calls & text messages.
The entire process from March, 2013 when they started until last contact in July, 2013 was horrible.  Aaron Garcia does not return phone calls or even text messages.  He does not finish jobs.  He is highly personable, but he is a con artist.  We have since found out that he has done this to dozens of people.  He starts jobs & never finishes them.  He takes the draws up to the point where he can walk away before the job is done.  Be aware that he also has numerous aliases:  Aaron Venezuela & Aaron Hernandez are two that we discovered after-the-fact.
Due to the severe damage to our pool, we actually had to pay someone over $7,000 just to remove it before we could start over.  His company is no longer in existence, but we have been told that he has started a new company.

the project of remodeling a current pool was started and halfway into it people he had rented equipment from threatened to place a lien on my friend's land due to nonpayment of the lease contract by Aaron, Stop payment was placed on a check issued to Aaron due to this until he could clear up this debt and clear this lien threat.  Aaron received another check from my friend to replace that check not knowing that Aaron had already cashed the first check with a check cashing company.  Needless to say once this was discovered by my friend by the way of debt collectors calling her threatening to ruin her family's credit and sue them , Aaron quit showing up for work and answering his phone.  Now the project is half done and Aaron has been paid for the whole project and my friend is left with having to cover the stopped payment check as well due to state laws for check cashing places which adds up to more than the project would have cost to start with.  Now they are looking at having to get someone else to finish the pool and the damage Aaron caused to surrounding structures in her backyard is a whole other expense they will have to incur.
