Attention everyone – please be cautious of David from Paradise Pools.

He gave us a quotation of R53,600.00 to marblelite our swimming pool, but then suggested we rather go with fiberglass. We have now been struggling for three weeks to get hold of him. One of his workers apparently broke an arm or a leg, and since then he has not responded to us at all.

He initially told us that his work is guaranteed, but later told my husband that we should just take him to court because, according to him, we damaged the pool. The pool is not even three months old, and they already had to come back to repair it. This is the poor quality of work we were left with.

On top of that, the pool was left with sharp edges. When we told him that our children had cut themselves on those edges, he said he would look at it—but nothing was done. The pool is still leaking, and the workmanship is simply not worth the money we paid.

We trusted him, thinking he was a professional businessman, but his conduct has proven otherwise. When my husband called him from a different number, he used foul language, which is completely unacceptable.

This is not the quality or professionalism we expected. Please be cautious before dealing with him. (Please note that this company was recommended to us by The Pool Team in Vanderbijlpark.)
