Gardner Pool Plastering Initiates 'Quality First' Campaign for the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool & Spa Safety Act; New Legislation to Have Major Impact in Southern California

Gardner Pool Plastering (www.gardnerpoolplastering.com), the premier resource in Southern California for residential and commercial pool remodeling, encourages customers to insist on hiring trained, licensed and insured professionals with the expertise to properly address the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool & Spa Safety Act (VGBA), new legislation that will have a major impact locally and nationally. Customers who use inexperienced pool technicians for VGBA projects risk wasting tens of thousands of dollars, losing their insurance coverage and closing their pools or spas.

"It's vitally important that customers - from hoteliers to universities to apartment complexes to municipalities - only consult with experts who have a thorough understanding of the rules governing VGBA. The details involved with VGBA require staff who have extensive familiarity with these issues and the ability to help customers easily comply with these factors. My advice to customers is to avoid companies that advertise too-good-to-be-true prices and have no working knowledge of VGBA," says Scott McKenna, CEO of Gardner Pool Plastering. "We encourage customers to perform their own due diligence - research any and all contractors - because the fines for non-compliance can total as much as $7 million! Not enough people know about the consequences of failing to comply with VGBA, and we seek to educate customers about these developments before it's too late. We have a vested stake in making compliance a simple and intelligible process."

Decades of Leadership and Public Trust

Gardner Pool Plastering continues to achieve new levels of success, based upon its commitment to professional innovation and public outreach. "The assignments we receive are a testament to our long-term success, credibility and name recognition. Few professionals enjoy this same level of respect, because we always emphasize quality as a first priority for everything we do. From major projects to small endeavors, quality is the hallmark of our work. That principle is at the heart of our efforts for VGBA-related issues, too," states Mr. McKenna.
