Yes I do. His name is Tim, and I'll send you his # if you contact me via PM.

About 5 years ago, Tim & his crew built for us an off-grid, in-ground, solar-powered swimming pool, about 17' x 33', 6ft deep, from concrete & tile. It is picturesque & beautiful, built to Florida standards, with hardwood decking, a pump house, outdoor showers, etc. It is easy to maintain, and is still in good condition.

Since it is solar powered we needed to add additional solar panels & batteries, the pump is a power hog. We run the pump & filter for about 6 hours on sunny days only, and it perfectly meets our needs.

If in country from a BTL phone do not dial the area code (501) just the seven digits. If outside Belize dial that countries LD code plus all ten digits of the phone number.

Example from the USA to Belize 011-501-xxx-xxxx.

If you are calling from Belize, *** is Tim's Belize cell #. I just talked to him, it works.

Calling from US is ***

There is a good chance that your local phone company has an error in their international dialing table, call them to get it sorted out, or call using a phone from a different company.

weird I call from Canada to my caretaker all the time and its 011501 then the number but I cant seem to get through does he have an e mail address. I am coming down Feb 6 thru 20 and would like him to come by and give me a quote

If your caretaker's exchange is also 633, then I would agree it is weird.
If your caretaker's exchange is different, then my bet is still an international dialing table problem at your local phone company, or a third party provider they use.

Ok, obviously if he can't PM you to start he must be having trouble getting through. Nevertheless, I am looking for someone like Tim. I am on the Northern Highway in Ladyville right after Haulover Bridge and I am looking for quotes on the installation of an in-ground pool. Please PM me. Thanks!
