PLEASE STAY AWAY FROM RON HOLLAND, CENTER LINE DESIGN GROUP
. Ron Holland will be a pool company’s pool designer then he will try to steer you away from the pool company that sent him to your house. He will try to sell you on that company that sent him is too expensive and he instead can find you a better price. That is exactly what happened to me. Also, here are a few of the things I had to deal with while working with Ron.
–I paid him for the Permit Processing Fee on or about 10 April 2012, and requested he give me a copy of the permit. I requested for a copy of the permit several times after that, but still did not receive them. Ron finally left me a copy of the permits dated 17 May 2012. I paid him for permits on or about 10 April 2012, but did not apply/​pay for the permit until around 17 May.
–The project was delayed for a week because Ron was over a month late in getting the permits and getting engineering completed.
–Don’t believe Ron when he says you can pay by credit card. If you pay by credit card they will charge you more rather than paying in cash and you are liable for the extra cost.
–Second inspection at my house was on hold causing my pool to be delayed for another week. After making several calls to the county to find out why, it was because Ron bounced the check for the Permit fee. Keep in mind I paid him for the permit fee and he cashed my check over two months ago.
— I needed a change order to my plans to replace my existing flagstone. Ron said he could take care of it for 1500.00. I paid Ron $ 1500.00 on or about 26 May to complete the project. About three weeks later the project still was not complete (this was a lot more difficult than it seems). I was calling him daily trying to figure out when his guys were at. Ron and I agreed he would refund me back $ 1200.00. After about 3 week of asking Ron to refund my money and receiving nothing but excuses, Ron finally refunded my money. This was when I decided I needed to cut ties with Ron. He even bought the flagstone from the wrong query, when he was the one who originally helped me pick out the flagstone for the pool.
–I almost forgot to mention, there was almost a fight in my backyard between Ron and the Contractor he hired to work on my pool project. I couldn’t believe this was happening, they started pushing each other. I had to break them apart. Very unprofessional.
–Now I’m still waiting for the low voltage transformer Ron said he would supply for the lights. I still have not received it and probably never will.

— I also had the hardest time trying to get a hold of Ron, whether it was he was in LA or his car was broken down, he would not return any texts or calls in a timely manner. The only time it seemed he would be around is when I had to make a payment.
Just to let everyone know, I pretty much cut ties with Ron Holland, Center Line Design Group (
) and my pool project is almost complete with the contractor Ron previously hired. I still have a few issues on some of the Items (Pool Equipment) Ron promised I would receive, but I’m sure I can work it out with the contractor.
Again, I strongly recommend you stay away from Ron Holland, Center line Design Group. If you have any question please contact me through this post and I will gladly give you a call.
