When to Call the Pool Guy
There are varying needs of pool owners and when they turn to a professional pool service for help. Many times, a pool owner can go for years without experiencing a pool problem. They’re capable of handling nearly every issue on their own. Other times, they’ll depend on a pool company for almost every aspect of pool care. Here are the biggest reasons people call a pool care service:
Pool maintenance
Green pools are no fun at all! Time to call in a pro.
Whether a homeowner is busy, a new pool owner, is going to be away for a time, is tired of taking care of his own pool, or has the dreaded green pool or some other baffling situation, pool maintenance takes a considerable chore off of the homeowner’s plate, and gives it to a knowledgeable, dedicated pool pro. Summer season is a busy time for pool pros because pools get dirty fast and stay dirty if they aren’t frequently and adequately maintained. But, winter can be a time when a homeowner wants to forget about the pool if he can’t use it.
Green pools are no fun at all! Time to call in a pro.
Some pool owners have a pool maintenance service because it's so much easier to have a pool pro on the job when there is a problem with the pool. Like most repairs, finding and solving a small pool problem will avoid a big problem later, and a pool service pro can detect the early signs when something isn’t right.
Pool trouble
Some repairs are simple, and a homeowner can do them without help. But, in order to do that, a pool owner needs information on what is wrong with his pool. Some pool owners don’t want to mess with repairs, are baffled by a specific type of repair, or lack the required tools or knowledge to repair a particular problem occurring with a pool. A maintenance company can generally tell what a problem is and recommend someone to repair it.
Acid washing
Maybe a pool is stained or etched, has thin spots or bare spots in the plaster or something else. When a homeowner thinks the pool needs to be replastered, it very well might. It might only need acid washing. But, a pool pro will know for sure and be able to guide the homeowner through the different options.
Automation
In addition to the convenience of having a pool service, some pool owners want the latest and greatest technology for their pool. Pool automation has come a long way, and new things are coming out all the time. When a pool owner wants new automation, they look for an expert who has knowledge and awareness of their pool situation. The guy in the pool store might be great, but he’s selling chlorine and skimmer baskets and doesn’t have the lay of the land of a particular pool. The best way to find out what might work in that situation is to ask the pool maintenance company, since they know your pool and also keep current on the latest technology.
