Report
Aquatic came highly recommended by our landscape architect, as did all the contractors he referred. However, our experience with them left much to be desired. Aquatic subbed out all the work on our pool remodel. Most of the subs had beat up old trucks and rag tag crews. The work was average at best, but on several occasions it was done wrong and had to be torn out and redone. This delayed not only the pool job, but also the entire landscape project.
Worst of all was Aquatic's unprofessional attitude in dealing with the issues. They acknowledged things were done wrong, but didn't so much as apologize
