Mr. Forchetti started the project and never finished. I filed suit in District Court and the District Justice awarded me $5,630.

Kirk and his workers are very nice professionals. They fixed my pool which I attempted to do myself to save money. I wish one million times I had called Kirk first. He knows his stuff and very personal; he cares! Because of he cares, on occasion, I think that he over extends himself to satisfy your individual need. It may be a matter of a day or two difference. God controls the weather. It was well worth the wait. I love it! I recommend him to anyone on all different financial level.The quality of the work is the same. I'm so happy now it's done

this guy Kirk Forchetti, is the worse guy ever I had to work with. he never pick up your call after he agrees to do your work, never show up on time and took money from us after getting only little bite of work he did and never finished anything that he agreed on. and his voice mail is always full and when we called him and told him to get the work done he tells us that he needs more money and when we told him that he has finish your work on whatever money we gave him already because he agreed on it; he told us not to call him again and forget the money that we gave him. so we lost the money..

Kirk came out very promptly and after speaking with him we agreed on the price and we were told he would begin the work within a couple of days and that it should take around 4 - 5 days at max,the first problem arose when the tile we picked, he did not order enough, then he could not match the exact same tile to finish the job, then he promised he would replace all the tile with another style, this took another week to sort, then then after another week he finally came to finish the work,all in all the project took over a month and i would rate his work as below average

AT first was good when he left and the pool was filled I had overlaps on the floor of the pool and up by the skimmer for about 8ft at the top were bubbles of excess liner. Called contractor numerous times only to get his voice mail never to get a reply and most of the time I got his voice mail box was full, still have same problems, taking more action.

He does not keep appointments very well. He will do the job but leave It incomplete. He expects you to finish the job yourself. When I hire a pro to do the job, I expect the job to be complete. I just don't have time to do it myself.

He was great! Fixed the problem quickly and so pleasant. Customers must understand that he is not always on time, but well worth the wait. Thanks Kirk and Bob- Cath and Mark

Kirk gave me a good price for the work he did. The liner looks great. Kirk also returned to my house and fixed my pool pump for free. He saved me from spending $300 on a new pump. I would recommend Kirk to anyone who needed to get pool work done.
