Excellent customer service and quick response!! The auto cover on my pool was broken in the open position, creating a safety issue for our small kids. The pool industry is extremely busy right now but Wiges Outdoor Services was able to fit me into their already busy schedule. They were extremely knowledgeable and resolved my issue quickly!
