The pool equipment was not damaged, it was just blown off the pad. The equipment was placed back on the pad and we re-plumbed it for free. The pool was finished on Saturday and the equipment was turned on and is working. At this time, we are just awaiting final payment.

Penguin Pools was paid in full for the excavation/electrical work to prepare for a swim spa, lanai screen and patio pavers. Prior to the end of the one year warranty expiration, I contacted the company to schedule warranty services. After numerous attempts (via email, phone and in person) Penguin has neglected to fulfill to the warranty services. In an attempt to get local mediation assistance on 10-25-21, I contacted the ********** Citizen Dispute Settlement Program to advocate on my behalf. They contacted Penguin Pool and on 12-22-21, the company did call me directly asking when would be a good time to schedule. I clearly stated anytime would be good. To date, Penguin Pools has not scheduled the work nor will return my calls. Finally, I am reaching out to BBB for help in this matter. The company has acknowledged that the following warranty repairs are outstanding:1) Several pavers need to be releveled (this is a major safety issue)2) Door hinges need to be replaced 3) A few holes are in the ceiling of the cage screen Thank you in advance for your time and assistance.Business response

We are currently short staffed due to illness, but we have every intention to set an appointment with the customer to have our ownership and tech go out and determine who we need to engage to bring a final solution for our valued customer. We hope to contact the customer today to schedule an appointment that works with all of our schedules.Customer response
