Rickys' Pools

This is the absolute worst place in…\r \r This is the absolute worst place in South Carolina. We recently purchased a home that he had done alot of work on the inground pool and hot tub and within a few months we are having to pay another company to redo all of his mess. We had him come out several times and he was rude and refused to warranty his work blaming it on anything but what he had done. We have had several experts review the problems all with the same conclusion-it was all done cheaply and shoty using the wrong materials. DO NOT go to this place. \r more

TREMENDOUS We must admit, after reading some of the negative comments that had been posted about Rickys' Pools, we thought about cancelling our contract with them before the first piece of dirt was turned for our pool. We are greatful we stuck with them. What a great job they did! In my profession I have dealt with all types of contractors for over 30 years. I have to say, without hesitation, I have never worked with a finer group of people froms start to finish. We are very pleased with the workmanship and quality of the pool. Do yourself a favor and don't believe what you read from one or two disgruntled customers. Give Rick a chance and I do not believe you will be disappointed. They started when they said they would start and finished quicker than they had quoted.\r -Roy and Lori Harris more

Rickys' Pools installed my inground pool back in the summer of 2007 and we have been nothing but satisfied! We are going on our 5th year of use and have yet to have a single problem with anything. The pool and concrete still look great and the equipment is still running like it is brand new. Rick is very personal and gave us the best price by far. He opens and closes are pool and we get our water tested there and we never have a problem with green water like our neighbors. We have no hesitation recommending Rickys' Pools to our friends and family! more

After talking with Ricky today about my liner he is having the manufactures Rep check my liner to determine what caused the pin holes. I'm impressed that he is going that extra mile to solve my problem with my liner. My apologies for the negitive feedback I left yesterday.... more

Me and my family had saved for months to buy a new pool. We interviewed multiple contractors and decided to use Rick Pleau with Ricky's Pools at the beginning of summer. He guaranteed he would be done within 6 weeks or less. He even put this in the contract and used it to separate himself from the other competitors. His point was that anyone can start on time, but so many contractors let the work drag on for weeks and months. My pregnant wife and small children could not wait to cool off in a new pool. The contract was signed and a start date was set. The start date was then pushed back several times and Ricky began to lie about obtaining permits, marking the utilities and what he promised verbally and in the contract. Well into the sixth week, work still had not begun, permits were never obtained, and utilities still had not been marked. We realized Rick was not going to uphold the contract and would continue to lie to us. We let him know we would be seeking another contractor since he had breached our contract. We asked for our nearly $10,000 deposit to be returned. He refused to return a dime and said the money was his whether he did the work or not. We have been forced to hire an attorney and begin the process of filing a lawsuit. Now instead of enjoying our pool, we are paying attorney fees with the money we have left, while Ricky collects interest on money that isn't his. We have a contract and other documentation to verify our claims. Buyers, don't make the same mistake we did. more
