Spring and fall fill up fast in Central New York. Customers who book in advance get first pick of dates, and the earlier you open, the less chance the water turns green on you.

Common questions

Do you service pools you didn't install?+

Yes. We work on fiberglass, vinyl and concrete pools no matter who built them.

When should I open my pool in Syracuse?+

Most people open between late April and Memorial Day. Opening once the water temperature is under 60°F makes the start-up easier and helps keep algae away.

When should I close it?+

Usually from mid-September to mid-October, once the water stays below about 65°F. Closing too early in warm weather can lead to algae under the cover.

Can I get service every week?+

Yes. Weekly and bi-weekly plans include cleaning, chemicals and an equipment check every visit.

How much does a pool opening or closing cost?+

It depends on the pool size, the cover type and the equipment. We give you a set price before we schedule, with no surprises on the bill.

What happens if you find a problem during an opening?+

We call or text you with what we found and the price to fix it. Nothing extra gets done without your OK.

Do you work on salt systems and automation?+

Yes. We service salt chlorine generators, variable-speed pumps, heat pumps and most automation systems.
