Testimonials
| Dear P.J.: We want to say thank
you for the awesome pool. The project went far better
than we could have ever expected. We were very concerned
about the project, because we are so close to the river,
but it went so smoothly that I wish we would have done
it years ago. It is so refreshing to work with a true
professional, your attention to detail and quality of
workmanship shows. Your crew was hardworking and a
pleasure to deal with.
Thank You

Hi PJ,
I want to thank you again for the wonderful, timely, neat, and
careful job your team accomplished for us. Barbara and I are very
pleased with the results - not only with the pond itself but also
with the way you minimized damage to the mature landscaping in the
yard and around the pond. Hopefully this will solve all of our
problems with water runoff down the hill. Please feel free to use us
as a reference with future customers if it will help you in any way.
Most Sincerely, Roger Paulman

Dear P.J.:
My wife and I just wanted to thank you for the wonderful job you did
with our pool. Your work showed creativity, attention to detail, and
a compulsion to do the best job possible. The slide, cave, and
vanishing edge on the pool, have been a source of great joy for us
and the children.
We would highly recommend you to anyone who is
seriously interested in a “one-of-a-kind” custom pool. Thank you,
again, for all of your hard work. Our pool is truly everything we
had hoped it would be.
Please stop by and see us when you are out our
way. We consider you our friend and hope to stay in touch.
Sincerely,
Ken and Linda Melchionna

Dear PJ:
I am writing to thank you for creating and
building our swimming pool and Jacuzzi. Our intent going into the
project was to build a pool that was natural looking and fun for the
entertaining. You accomplished both goals and went for beyond.
The project was especially challenging for two
reasons. The first was that the pool had to be built into the side
of a pretty steep hill. The second was that I was not very good at
explaining what I wanted, yet I would know it when I saw it. I think
this would be a huge challenge for any contractor except PJ.
During the construction phases PJ did a great job
of personally managing the workers. He was on top of any issues that
came up and settled them quickly. And best of all, he did a nice job
of managing another contractor’s workers associated with the
project.
Everyone I knew that built a pool had a story to
tell about missed commitments, significant price overruns, and
difficult workers. I had none of those problems with PJ and his men.
I found that any additions made to the scope of work were priced
very fairly. He did not use this as an opportunity to up-charge. In
fact, I feel he guided me to the right decisions when I was unsure
of what I wanted.
The pool turned out fantastic and it was a
pleasure working with PJ’s Concrete. I would recommend him to anyone
considering building a custom pool.
Sincerely,

Dear PJ:
I wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for
all your work in upgrading our well treatment system and our therapy
pool sanitation system. Your installation of the ECOsmarte system
for our therapy pools and well system, in conjunction with the
supplemental well system components you installed have worked magic
with our water.
As you know, our water at our clinic was
horrible. We registered at 19ppm sulfur. Besides the obvious problem
of the sulfur smell in our clinic, the sulfur was literally
destroying our building. Pipes were corroding and scaling. Our pool
components like our Autofill and our light housings were corroding
and constantly being replaced. Additionally, something in the nature
of the water was adversely affecting the electrical conductivity of
the water needed for our electrical stimulation whirlpool. We had an
existing well treatment system in place. While the water didn’t
smell, it continued to scale, corrode equipment, and decrease the
effectiveness of our whirlpool treatment. I was quite skeptical
about whether or not a new system would address all of our problems,
but it did. Prior to the installation of our system, our employees
would never drink the water. Now, the water is literally as fresh as
bottled water.
Regarding our pool systems, the combination of
the ECOsmarte system and the natural enzymes from the Natural
Chemistry did the trick. Treating a 1,000 gallon pool where 10-15
dogs per day are swam requires the same amount of treatment as a
1,000 gallon pool with 900 people per day using it. We were
previously using bromine as a sanitizer, and while it worked
effectively, there were some drawbacks. First, it had a tendency to
stain the pool walls. Secondly the dogs had a tendency to drink the
water. I was uncomfortable with the dogs drinking the water
sanitized with bromine. Lastly, the pool had a LOT of foam. Our pool
water now is clean, clear and much safer than before, and not a bit
of foam.
I clearly was skeptical about the ability of this
system to handle our therapy pools. I can assure you that if the
ECOsmarte system can handle our sanitation needs, it can handle
anything.
Finally, I’d like to thank you for your diligence
in getting our problem resolved. We had some issues to work through,
and your dedication to getting the problem resolved to my
satisfaction is a testament to your customers. I would not hesitate
to recommend you for any of your services to anyone. I truly
appreciate all your hard work on what turned out to be a very
challenging system.
Sincerely,
