You didn’t invest in a pool to spend your weekends balancing chemicals and skimming debris. You wanted a place where your family could cool off after a long day, where friends could gather on summer evenings, where you could relax without another item on your to-do list.
That’s what regular pool cleaning actually gives you. Not just clear water, but time back in your week. Not just balanced chemicals, but confidence that your kids are swimming in safe, properly maintained water.
Georgia’s extended warm season means your pool gets used more months out of the year than pools up north. That also means more pollen in spring, more leaves in fall, and more consistent demand on your filtration system. When you’re not constantly playing catch-up with maintenance, your equipment lasts longer and your water stays inviting.
We’ve been maintaining pools in Douglas County for over 30 years. We’re the local company that built many of the custom inground pools around Hannah, and we still service them today.
Our technicians hold CPO certification from the National Swimming Pool Foundation and APSP Certified Service Technician credentials. That’s not just letters after a name—it means we understand pool chemistry at a level that keeps your water safe and your equipment running efficiently.
We’re located right here on Baker Highway in Douglas. When you call, you’re talking to people who know the specific challenges of maintaining pools in this area—the Georgia clay that finds its way into every filter, the pollen that blankets everything each spring, the way our humidity affects chemical balance.
First, we test your water chemistry. Not just chlorine—we’re checking pH, alkalinity, calcium hardness, and stabilizer levels. These numbers tell us exactly what your pool needs, not what a generic chart suggests.
Then we clean. That means skimming the surface, brushing walls and steps, vacuuming the floor, and emptying your skimmer and pump baskets. We’re also inspecting your equipment while we’re there—checking for leaks, unusual sounds, or anything that might become a problem if left alone.
After cleaning, we add the chemicals your water actually needs based on those test results. We don’t dump in a standard amount and hope for the best. Every pool is different, and what worked last week might not be right this week depending on weather, usage, and a dozen other factors.
Before we leave, we’ll let you know if we spotted anything that needs attention. Most visits are routine. But when something’s off, you’ll know about it before it becomes expensive.

Your service covers everything needed to keep your pool swim-ready. Surface skimming and vacuuming happen every visit. We brush tile lines and pool walls to prevent algae buildup before it starts. Filter cleaning is part of the regular rotation, not an extra charge when it finally clogs.
Chemical treatment is based on actual water testing, not guesswork. You’re not buying buckets of chlorine from a big box store and hoping you got the ratio right. We’re adjusting sanitizer levels, pH, and alkalinity to keep your water balanced and comfortable.
In Douglas County, we also handle seasonal services that matter in Georgia. Winterizing your pool properly prevents damage during our occasional hard freezes. De-winterizing in spring gets you swimming sooner. Both services protect your investment and extend the life of your equipment.
You can schedule weekly, biweekly, or monthly visits depending on how much you use your pool and how much you want to handle yourself. Most families with kids find weekly service makes sense during summer and biweekly works fine in cooler months.
Most residential pools in Hannah need professional service weekly during the swimming season and biweekly in cooler months. That’s different from what you’d need in northern states where pools close completely for winter.
Georgia’s extended warm season means your pool is active from April through October at minimum. During those months, you’re dealing with constant pollen, regular use, and warm water temperatures that make algae growth more likely. Weekly service keeps you ahead of problems instead of constantly reacting to them.
In November through March, you can often stretch to biweekly service unless you’re heating your pool and swimming year-round. The water’s cooler, there’s less debris, and chemical demand drops. But you still need someone checking on things regularly—equipment doesn’t stop running just because it’s winter, and an unnoticed leak in January becomes an expensive problem by spring.
The biggest difference is consistency and expertise. You can absolutely maintain your own pool if you’re willing to learn the chemistry and commit to a regular schedule. Where most people struggle is keeping up with it every single week, especially when life gets busy.
Pool chemistry isn’t complicated, but it’s specific. pH affects how well your chlorine works. Alkalinity affects your pH. Calcium levels affect your plaster or liner. When one thing gets out of balance, it creates a cascade of other issues. A professional technician sees these patterns immediately because they’re testing dozens of pools every week.
The other factor is equipment knowledge. When your pump starts making a new sound or your filter pressure is reading higher than normal, do you know if that’s urgent or just something to monitor? Our technicians catch small problems before they become failures. That often saves you more than the service costs, especially if it prevents a major equipment replacement.
You’ll have a primary technician assigned to your pool who handles most of your regular visits. That consistency matters because they get to know your specific pool, your equipment, and any quirks in your system.
When your regular tech is off or handling an emergency, someone else from our team covers the route. But they’re looking at the same service notes and test history, so there’s continuity in how your pool is maintained.
Many of our customers specifically mention in reviews that they appreciate seeing the same person who knows their pool. It’s not just about familiarity—it’s about that technician noticing when something’s different from last week. A new person might not catch that your water level dropped more than usual or that your pump is running louder than it was. Your regular tech notices those details.
First, we’ll come out and assess what caused it. Green water usually means algae growth, which happens when sanitizer levels drop too low or circulation stops. That can be from equipment failure, a sudden storm that threw off your chemistry, or sometimes just a perfect combination of heat and heavy use.
We’ll shock the pool with a higher dose of chlorine, add algaecide if needed, and run your filter continuously until the water clears. Depending on how bad it is, that can take anywhere from 24 hours to a few days. We’ll come back to vacuum out the dead algae once it settles and retest your chemistry.
If you’re on a regular service schedule and your pool goes green, that tells us something changed. Maybe your pump isn’t running long enough each day, or there’s an issue with your chlorinator. We’ll figure out the root cause so it doesn’t keep happening. One-time green water is fixable. Recurring problems mean we need to adjust something in your system or service frequency.
Yes. While we’ve built many of the custom inground pools around Douglas County, we maintain plenty of pools that other companies installed or that came with homes our customers bought.
We service all types of residential pools—concrete, fiberglass, vinyl liner. We work with equipment from all the major manufacturers including Pentair, Hayward, and Jandy. If you’ve got a pool that needs regular maintenance, we can handle it regardless of who built it or how old it is.
Sometimes we actually prefer taking over maintenance on pools we didn’t build because the previous service was inconsistent or the homeowner was struggling to keep up with it themselves. We’ve seen enough pools over 30 years to quickly assess what your specific setup needs and get it on a proper maintenance schedule. The pool doesn’t care who built it—it just needs someone who knows what they’re doing to keep it running right.
Most residential pool cleaning runs between $80 and $150 per month for weekly service, depending on your pool size and what’s included. That typically covers skimming, vacuuming, chemical balancing, and basic filter maintenance.
Biweekly service costs less since we’re coming half as often, but you’ll need to handle some basic tasks yourself between visits like skimming debris and checking chlorine levels. Monthly service is really just for people who are doing most of their own maintenance and want a professional to verify everything quarterly.
Additional services like filter deep cleans, equipment repairs, or acid washes are separate. We’ll always let you know the cost before doing any work beyond your regular service. The goal is to keep your pool in good enough shape that you’re not constantly paying for extra services—regular maintenance should prevent most problems, not just identify them after they’ve gotten expensive.
