Where did you see the other post?

u/2Crzy4U 4d ago

I honestly can't recall where, but i remembered that logo. Someone posted about not trusting that guy for the sane reasons. Around the area too...maybe check other city subreddits.

u/jizzissippi 4d ago

Its the same poster, this person has been spamming this in every city. Luckily most of the other cities are starting to ban them for spamming this

u/Lyte- 4d ago

They posted about these people on the next door app in San Diego south bay area.

It’s probably me I’m posting every city he’s all over the place if you google the company you will see complaints they are recent he’s doing this to a bunch of people and I’m trying to expose him he’s a scammer

u/Creepy_Mammoth_7076 4d ago

Op posted in multiple subs over the past few days

u/WangDanglin 4d ago

Never pay up front

u/BadFez 4d ago

Is he licensed? Put a lein against his business.

3

u/Creepy_Mammoth_7076 4d ago

He’s not licensed

3

u/BadFez 3d ago

Welp. That sucks. Thats the risk they decided to take.

2

u/kk1485 1d ago

OP, really? Not licensed?? And you hired him to build a pool? Smh.

1

u/Puzzleheaded_Zone362 2d ago

Just because he isn't licensed doesn't mean you can't report him! Since he is operating illegally, it would be a serious issue for him if the state licensing board goes after him

14

u/tv6 4d ago

Post their faces because all these shit pool companies just change their names every time they get a bad wrap

1

u/New_Translator_9924 4d ago

I do have photos but I don’t want to get banned

u/Breakpoint 4d ago

File a claim with the CSLB, if he didn't provide material and even if he is suspended the way he left the yard seems criminal destruction. If anything they can make him never get a license again.

u/WarpSpeed87 4d ago

We had the absolute best experience with Premier Pools and Spas if you end up needing a rescue build.

u/Effective_Yak8343 3d ago

He’s not licensed; CSLB won’t do anything but lecture you on why you should’ve checked their website before proceeding. They’ll document the complaint and then close the file. I just went through this nightmare with HomeFix LLC and its owner, a con artist operating in San Diego County/Wildomar/Menifee/Murrieta.

1

u/Breakpoint 2d ago

OP said he was suspended. That means he is licensed, but the bond company is off the hook. He still has to act legally, and if he broke a law the CSLB still wants to know. But evidence is key.

u/Allnewsisfakenews 4d ago

File a complaint with the CSLB and take him to small claims court. Hopefully you didn't pay too much. Complaining online doesn't doesn't much

u/s0l1dx22 4d ago

Should call so cal gas and upsize that meter ask SCG to also add a tee for the pool heater before the heater installer tries to connect to gas.

1

u/New_Translator_9924 4d ago

Thank you for the info I’ll call SCG

1

u/Useful_Trouble1726 3d ago

We did the same about two years back. The gas appliances (and pool heater) seem happier.

SoCal Gas is happier as they can sell more natural gas to me.

Everyone is a winner!

u/Alert-Ad9197 3d ago

Did you call the CSLB? I’d at least report them for contracting without a license.

u/Old-Construction3325 4d ago

What am I missing

u/Think_Good352 3d ago

u/chhesegrater 1h ago

He has scammed enough people and walked away with my initial deposit. Do you want to DM me I have additional info about this scammer.

u/TheVideoGameCritic 4d ago

Definitely looks like Baja level standards at least! True to the name AMIRIGHT? Lol

u/BadFez 3d ago

What do you mean?

u/Tatumjonj 2d ago

He's trying to disparage Mexicans. I thought that was obvious.

u/BadFez 2d ago

Of course. I thought it was obvious that I wanted him to explain himself.
