Inground Pool Maintenance in the Capital Region

Keeping your inground pool clean, balanced, and properly maintained throughout the swimming season is just as important as opening and closing it correctly. We serve Albany, Schenectady, Rensselaer, Saratoga, and Columbia counties — one trusted team for every aspect of pool care from Memorial Day to Labor Day.

Water Chemistry

Chemical Balancing

We test and adjust all key water chemistry levels including pH, alkalinity, chlorine, calcium hardness, and cyanuric acid — protecting your liner, equipment, and swimmers all season long.

Winterization

Reliable Pool Closing

Closing your pool properly before winter is critical in Upstate New York's freezing conditions. We winterize plumbing and equipment, adjust water levels, and secure winter covers.

Book Early

Plan Ahead

We recommend booking your opening as early as March for a May or early June start, and your closing in August or early September to secure your preferred date before the fall rush.

Book Your Closing

Request A Pool Closing

Closing is $375. We do not do above ground pools. You must have a safety cover, not a tarp. Also — no Gunite pools.

Closing Choice

Additional Options To Be Done At Closing

You acknowledge that by booking a closing, you will not be given an exact time, but you will be given a date. We work from 7 AM until 7 PM. You are expected to have your cover and all closing accessories out and accessible for the technicians. Pre-payment is required to book the appointment to allow for a seamless process.

How Would You Like To Pay? *

Pre-payment for your closing is required for your scheduled closing to be seamless. You will be sent a text with the address for sending a check, or if paying electronically there will be a 3.5% processing fee and you will be emailed an invoice. We do not give exact times, as our crew works from 7 AM till 7 PM — we'll give you a day of the week and a solid date. These dates could change as time progresses, and weather and acts of nature could always step in. We will do our best to keep you updated.
