2nd Update: After Better Business Bureau closed the case as unresolved, they recommended I contact an attorney. I let D&S know I would be doing so and on August 6, 2020, they finally removed the debris. Just after that, the brand new liner fell out from the side in a huge spot. I was able to get a reputable pool place in Cullman to come fix it.
UPDATE: D&S Pools sent out a trailer and loaded it full with trash and cement, but left the old pool liner, pallets, and fencing on our brush pile. It’s an environmental hazard to burn that liner and once the fencing and pallets are burned it will leave nails in my yard! When the guy came to pick up the trailer, it was overloaded and his tires had to be removed and replaced. They also had to push some of the concrete back in our yard to lighten the load. They said they would return to get the rest, but haven’t yet. It’s been five days.
Chris left a huge mess in my yard upon finishing our pool work. We live overseas and are only able to visit home occasionally. We asked him to honor the contract and clean up his mess but he refused. When he came to pick up his final payment, he drove up in his Cullman City police car. I think he was trying to intimidate us. We paid him the final payment on time and asked him to consider doing the right thing. He took the money and left the mess.
