Pool Service FAQ for Hudson Valley, NY Homeowners

We're based in Putnam Valley, NY, in Putnam County. We don't have a storefront; we come to you. Our route covers all of Westchester, Putnam, and Dutchess County.

Bobby, or the crew he works with every day. No subcontractors, no rotating technicians. If you've booked with us before, you'll see the same faces.

Inground and above-ground. Vinyl liner, gunite, and fiberglass. Saltwater and chlorine. If it holds water in a backyard, we service it.

Monday through Saturday, 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Closed Sunday. We work year-round; the services just change with the season.

Most openings take two to three hours on site. The water usually needs a few days of circulation and chemistry before it's ready to swim, and we'll tell you when. Details on the pool opening page.

It happens, especially after a mild winter or a cover that leaked. We can handle it the same visit or schedule a dedicated deep clean. See pool vacuuming and deep cleaning.

Water left in the plumbing freezes, expands, and cracks pipes and fittings underground where you can't see them. Blowing the lines out with air and plugging them is what prevents a spring repair bill. It's standard on every pool closing we do.

Not always, but it's cheap insurance. Above-ground plumbing and pumps are just as vulnerable to freezing, and a torn winter cover lets a season of leaves into the pool. We close above-ground pools every fall.

Weekly, from opening through closing. Chemistry drifts in days, not weeks, and a pool that's checked every seven days almost never turns green. Our weekly pool service includes a water test on every visit.

Yes, for pools with low use and good filtration. We'll be honest if your pool needs weekly to stay clean.

No. Most customers aren't. We need gate access and power to the equipment, and we leave a note after every visit so you know what we did.

Testing is included. Every weekly visit includes a full water test, and we balance the water while we're there. The chemicals themselves are extra, not part of the weekly price.

Not necessarily. A loud pump is often a worn bearing or a seal, which is a repair, not a replacement. We diagnose on site and tell you which it is. See pool equipment repair.

Typically 8 to 12 years for an inground liner. Freeze-thaw winters and strong sun shorten that; good water chemistry and keeping the water level up over winter extend it. Wrinkles, fading, and water loss are the signs it's time. More on pool liner replacement.

Mesh lets water through and keeps debris out, so there's no pump needed and no standing water on top. Solid blocks everything, including sunlight, so the water underneath stays cleaner, but it needs a cover pump. We install both; see winter pool covers.

We focus on service: openings, closings, weekly care, repairs, liners, and covers. We do install new equipment such as pumps, filters, heaters, and salt systems.

Two to three weeks ahead in peak season (April and late September). Weekly service customers get first priority on both.

All of Westchester, Putnam, and Dutchess County, with no travel fee. The full list is on the service areas page.
