Pool maintenance tools including a skimmer net, water testing kit, and floating chlorine dispenser by a clean swimming pool in Waterloo.

Pool Maintenance Service

We all know that proper pool maintenance can become challenging within our busy schedules. There are pumps, liners, filters, hoses, skimmers, and covers, so knowing how to utilize each piece of pool equipment can get overwhelming and time-consuming. Then, there is the general water balancing that is required to keep your pool water safe, clean, and swimmable.

To keep your water safe for your family and friends, the chlorine levels need to be carefully monitored and adjusted, and your pump needs to be maintained so your water moves and flows through filters. And then what happens if you discover you might have a pool leak somewhere? If this is starting to sound overwhelming, then it’s time to let our dedicated pool technicians at Pool Solutions take out all the work and stress related to pool maintenance in Waterloo with our expert services.

Maintaining Chemical Balance

No one really likes swimming in a green algae-covered pool or a pool with too much chlorine. If your pool water is not balanced, then your swimming guests will let you know. To prevent your pool from developing these unpleasant symptoms, our pool technicians need to ensure that your pool water is properly balanced. Not only does a well-maintained pH and chlorine balance stop algae from growing, but these are also important conditions for fighting off dangerous bacteria that can affect your health and that of your loved ones. With our Pool Solutions Maintenance Packages, you can have peace of mind knowing that your pool is being properly maintained, and our regular chemical tests and inspections will help keep you swimming safely all summer long.

Pool Opening & Closing FAQs

We proudly serve Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, Guelph, and the surrounding areas, providing expert pool opening and closing services tailored to your needs.

Our pool opening service includes removing and storing the pool cover, reinstalling fittings like jet eyeballs and skimmer baskets, adding an opening chemical kit, reinstalling equipment such as pumps and filters, and checking for any leaks or operational issues. For closing, we lower the water level, blow out underground lines, add winterizing chemicals, install winter plugs, and secure the pool cover to protect your pool through the winter months.

While DIY pool opening is possible, hiring professionals ensures that all equipment is properly reinstalled, chemicals are balanced correctly, and potential issues are identified early.

Our pool opening service includes a thorough inspection of your equipment, such as pumps, filters, and heaters, to ensure they’re running efficiently. If we detect any issues, we’ll provide recommendations and repair options to get everything in top shape before the swim season begins.
