Hear from Our Customers
You get your Saturday mornings back. No more scrubbing walls, testing chemicals, or wondering if the water’s safe for the kids.
Your pool stays swim-ready all season. Water stays balanced, surfaces stay clean, and equipment gets checked before small problems turn expensive.
You stop second-guessing yourself. Is the chlorine right? Should the filter run longer? Someone who’s done this for 30 years handles it, and you just enjoy the pool you paid for.
We’ve been maintaining residential pools across Lithia Springs and Douglas County since before most pool service companies existed. We’re family-owned, locally based, and we’ve seen what Georgia summers do to pool water and equipment.
We know the soil here. We know the weather patterns. We know which equipment holds up and which chemicals work best in Douglas County water. That’s not marketing talk – it’s just what happens when you stay in one place long enough to learn it right.
We show up on the same day each week. You don’t need to be home. We let ourselves in, do the work, and lock up when we’re done.
First, we skim the surface and brush the walls. Then we vacuum the bottom, empty the skimmer baskets, and backwash or clean the filter. We test your water chemistry and add what’s needed to keep it balanced – chlorine, pH adjusters, alkalinity, whatever the test shows.
We check your pump, filter, and other equipment while we’re there. If something looks off, we’ll let you know before it breaks. Most weeks, everything’s fine and we’re done in 45 minutes. You come home to clean water and a text that says we were there.

Every visit covers surface skimming, wall brushing, vacuuming, and basket cleaning. We test and balance all your water chemistry – chlorine, pH, alkalinity, calcium hardness, and stabilizer. Chemicals are included in your service rate.
We also inspect your equipment each time. Pump, filter, heater, salt system if you have one – we’re checking for leaks, unusual sounds, pressure issues, anything that signals a problem forming. Most equipment failures give warning signs weeks before they quit completely.
In Lithia Springs, we’re dealing with Georgia heat, afternoon thunderstorms, and pollen that coats everything from March through May. Your pool needs consistent attention during those months, not just when you remember to check it. Weekly service means someone’s watching it even when you’re busy or out of town. That’s how you avoid green water, algae blooms, and equipment that dies mid-summer when replacement parts are backordered for weeks.
Most residential pool cleaning runs between $100 and $150 per month in Douglas County, depending on pool size and what’s included. That typically covers weekly visits, all standard chemicals, and basic equipment checks.
Larger pools or those with more complex equipment might run higher. Pools with attached spas, salt systems, or extensive water features take more time and materials. If you need repairs, those are separate – but catching them early during routine service usually means smaller bills than emergency calls.
The real cost comparison isn’t between pool services. It’s between paying for weekly maintenance versus dealing with green water, failed pumps, or resurfacing damage from neglected chemistry. A $120 monthly service is cheaper than one equipment replacement or one algae treatment with acid wash.
Your water chemistry drifts first. Chlorine drops, pH climbs, and algae starts forming within days in Georgia heat. By week two, you’ll likely see cloudy water or green tint starting.
By week three or four, you’re looking at an algae bloom that requires shock treatment, algaecide, and possibly an acid wash if it’s bad enough. That’s not a regular cleaning anymore – it’s a recovery service that costs $200 to $500 depending on severity.
Equipment suffers too. Debris clogs skimmers and pump baskets, making your pump work harder. Filters get overloaded. Unbalanced water etches plaster or corrodes metal components. Most of that damage happens slowly, but skipping maintenance for a month or two can create problems that take years off your pool’s life.
Yes, though service frequency changes with seasons. Most customers keep weekly service from April through September when pools get heavy use and Georgia heat accelerates algae growth.
From October through March, many switch to bi-weekly or monthly maintenance. Your pool still needs attention in winter – leaves fall, water chemistry still drifts, and equipment still needs monitoring. But you’re not fighting the same algae pressure, so less frequent service usually works fine.
Some customers pause service entirely and handle winter maintenance themselves. That’s an option if you’re comfortable with it. We just recommend at least monthly check-ins during winter so nothing surprises you when you reopen in spring. Equipment failures don’t wait for convenient timing.
We handle both. Most equipment issues get spotted during routine cleaning – a pump making noise, filter pressure running high, heater not firing correctly. We can diagnose and repair most problems on the spot or schedule a follow-up if parts are needed.
Common repairs include pump motors, filter valve replacements, heater components, salt cell cleaning, and plumbing leaks. We’re licensed and insured for pool equipment work, and we’ve been repairing the same brands and models for 30 years across Douglas County.
If something’s beyond repair, we’ll tell you straight. We’re not in the business of patching equipment that’s going to fail again in two months. Sometimes replacement makes more sense than repair, and we’ll walk you through options and costs before doing anything.
You don’t need to be. Most of our customers aren’t home during service – they’re at work, running errands, or just don’t want to plan their day around pool cleaning.
We access your pool through a gate code, lockbox, or unlocked gate depending on what works for your property. We do the work, secure everything when we’re done, and send you a text or email confirming we were there. If we spot anything that needs attention, that’s in the message too.
After the first visit or two, it becomes routine. Same day each week, same process, no coordination needed on your end. If you’re going to be out of town or need to skip a week, just let us know. Otherwise, we show up whether you’re home or not.
Cloudy water is the most obvious sign. If you can’t see the bottom clearly in the deep end, your chemistry’s off. Green or yellow tint means algae is forming, which happens when chlorine drops too low.
Burning eyes or skin irritation after swimming usually means pH is too high or too low. Strong chlorine smell – the kind that hits you when you open the gate – actually indicates not enough chlorine, not too much. That smell comes from chloramines, which form when there’s not enough free chlorine to sanitize properly.
You might also notice scaling on tile, rough plaster surfaces, or corrosion on metal fixtures. Those are signs of calcium or pH imbalance that’s been going on for a while. Most people can’t diagnose the specific problem without test strips or a kit, which is why regular professional testing catches issues before they’re visible or causing damage.
