Eric will tell you what you want to hear. Will even say he is going to charge you a little more than some of the other guys. He has you believing he is better than the rest and that it's ok to spend a little more on his services. But once he gets the job it shows that he could really care less about his work. Several times he would arrive, dump a bunch of chlorine in and then leave! Here for less then 5 minutes total! And the helper just stands there talking. It seems to me that if they don't think they are being watched they do as little as possible so they can get on to the next victim! And the worst part is, every time you do go to enjoy your pool, when you get out you end up smelling of nothing but chlorine. He will tell you that it is normal, but we know that it is not! When swimming at family members pool, we do not smell of anything when we get out! You can't even shower and scrub your body enough to get the smell out. The smell sticks with you into the following day! Highly recommend to anyone thinking about calling Eric...don't do it! You will be swimming in a chlorine pool that is NEVER cleaned beyond just dumping chlorine in!
