Hiring a pool builder in Rancho Santa Margarita
A license only tells you the builder is allowed to do the work. It says nothing about the contract you are about to sign, and that contract decides what happens if the shell cracks, the plaster fails or the job stops halfway. California law caps the down payment on a pool at $1,000 or 10 percent, whichever is less, and no payment may run ahead of the work done. Read the before-you-sign checklist.
