| - When I first agreed to relocate from "Hot"lanta to even hotter Vegas, there was one stipulation: pool. I had to have one. So, shortly after arriving, pool procurement commenced. As with any home contracting project, searching for the right fit of value and quality is challenging and...well, interesting.
We met with a wide cast of characters from the sketchy pushy overpromiser to the slick high-dollar coolio. Neither extreme is safe in my opinion, so I was very happy when we found Artistic Pools. It is a father-son company, and both father and son are fun, easy people to work with. And, I am the first to admit that my husband and I are demanding consumers.
From the beginning, Ron (the father) listened to our budget concerns, and he didn't try to make any excuses about why a rectangle pool would cost more than an amoeba-shaped one. Our pool was completed on schedule and exactly how we asked for it. In fact, Ron had higher expectations than we did. When the tile contractor installed the tiles on the steps a little crooked, Ron made them come back, pay to drain and refill the pool and fix their mistake. Besides that little hiccup, all of the contractors that worked with Ron did a terrific job. We actually ended up hiring the concrete guy to pour our entire patio.
Plus, they made sure we were all set when the pool was finished. They helped us buy a huge bucket of affordable chlorine tablets.
I couldn't have asked for anything better, and now that it's 110 outside, I am appreciating Artistic's work daily.
