AV Pool AND Spa

Mike Santos is indeed a crook! He seems to be a «Jack of All Trades,» and posts that he can do everything from electrical to painting on Craigsist. I decided to give him a call for my specific job, before I realized he specializes in all trades. After flaking on our first appointment for an estimate, he came out to bid my job. He claimed he could start within a few days, and I decided to go with him, pending a written estimate. Said he would get this to me within 24hrs, but nothing ever came. Finally he called me a week later, and said he could start that week and would get me the estimate as requested. He also stated he did a wood related job in the area, and that I could go see his work. I tried calling him a few days in a row regarding the estiate and the job he did, so I could take a look. After a few messages with no return call back, I realized he was a flake and continued to find someone else. Am I ever so greatful I did that! I then decided to do a CL search by phone number, when I realized he claimed to be a specialist in all other areas. I also came across a review here on Unilocal,which just supported my decision to not continue calling him. I recently just saw an add on CL from a disgruntled consumer stating to not call this guy, as he took a deposit for a job, and never showed up! Stay far far away from this guy as he is dishonest and will swindle you out of your hard earned money.
