The problem with most pool companies
Frustrating. Unreliable.
Impersonal.
Late replies. Different techs every visit. Rushed 10-minute stops. And just enough water issues to keep you from ever feeling good about the money you're paying to maintain your pool.

Weekly Service
Weekly Pool Cleaning & Maintenance in Highland Park
Everything that happens at your pool, every single week.
What’s Included in Every Visit
Full scope, no line items skipped
- Skim the surface
- Brush walls and tile
- Empty skimmer and pump baskets
- Vacuum the floor
- Check filter pressure and top off water level
- Full chemical test and on-the-spot adjustment
- Timestamped photo report sent to your phone
You get the same technician every week. That matters more than it sounds. Someone who already knows your equipment, your skimmer basket that fills faster than normal, your heater that runs a little hot, the way your pH drifts after a rainstorm. That consistency is the difference between a technician and a stranger with a net.
The photo report we send after every visit shows your pool before and after cleaning, your actual chemical readings, any equipment issues we spotted, and anything you should keep an eye on. You know exactly what happened, what your water looks like, and whether anything needs attention. No guessing. No wondering if we were actually there.
Chemical Balancing & Water Chemistry
The tap water here runs hard. Calcium above 250 ppm from the tap. We correct for it every week.
- Water from Dallas Water Utilities runs high pH and high calcium hardness straight from the tap
- Left alone: scale deposits on tile, inside plumbing, and across equipment surfaces by midweek
- We use commercial-grade testing equipment, not retail test strips
- CYA past 80 ppm means partial drain and refill. We tell you straight.
Here is the chemistry that trips people up in the Park Cities. Calcium hardness regularly tests above 250 ppm out of the tap. Combine that with pH that climbs fast in summer heat, and you get scale building on your tile line, inside your plumbing, and on equipment surfaces before most homeowners even notice.
We manage the Langelier Saturation Index on every pool we service in the 75205. That means we balance calcium, alkalinity, pH, temperature, and TDS together. Not just chlorine. Older plaster finishes (common in estate pools built in the 1950s through 1980s) are especially sensitive to aggressive chemistry. Wrong balance eats plaster. We adjust for surface type every single time.
The CYA ProblemCyanuric acid (CYA) protects chlorine from UV breakdown, which is good. But tablet-based chlorination adds CYA to your pool every single week. Past 80 ppm, it locks chlorine in a form that cannot sanitize effectively. When we see that, we tell you straight: it is time for a partial drain and refill. No workarounds, no upsell.
A note on town codeChapter 6, Article 2 of the town's Code of Ordinances prohibits stagnant water on private property. A green or neglected pool qualifies, and fines run up to $500 per violation. Neighbors can report directly to the code compliance department. Consistent weekly service is the straightforward way to stay clear of it.
Equipment Inspection & Diagnostics
Find it now. Fix it cheap. Or replace it in August at the worst possible time.
- Leaking pump seal: caught on a routine visit, not after the motor burns out
- Frayed belt on a Polaris booster: spotted before it snaps
- Cracked lid on a Hayward CL filter: same-day photo and quote if it needs repair
A leaking pump seal costs around $40 to replace. Ignore it for two months and the motor floods, seizes, and you are looking at $1,200 or more for a replacement in the middle of August when every pool company in Dallas has a three-week wait. We have seen this scenario enough times that it is not dramatic to say: the weekly inspection pays for itself the first time it catches something.
When we spot something that needs pool equipment repair, you get a photo and a quote the same day. Not a voicemail. Not a text next week. You know what is wrong, what it will cost, and what happens if you wait. The decision is always yours.

Timestamped, GPS-tracked pool health report sent to you.
Not sometimes. Every time.
Ready to see what reliable pool service looks like?
Ten steps. Every visit. No filler.
(That 30-point program others offer? It's not real. “Checking the water” and “Testing chemicals”… that's the same thing.)
Our Process
Four Phases. Nothing Skipped.
Every visit runs the same sequence, in the same order, for the same reason.
The Chemistry
Full water test, on-the-spot adjustment. Your pool chemistry is only as good as the last time someone actually checked it, and in this part of Dallas, a week without correction is long enough to drift somewhere you do not want to be.

The Clean
Physical cleaning comes first: skim, brush, vacuum. The brushing is not optional. Algae starts as a film on your walls and tile before it ever becomes visible, and brushing is what stops it at that stage.
The Equipment
Check everything mechanical: pump, filter, circulation, timer, automation. Small problems caught in this phase stay small. The ones nobody looks for are the ones that turn into Saturday emergencies.
The Proof
A timestamped, GPS-backed report sent to your phone when we leave. Chemical readings, equipment notes, photos of your pool. You have a record of every visit, every time, going back as far as you want to look.
No shortcuts. No twelve-minute visits.
Transparent pricing
How Much Does Pool Cleaning Cost in Highland Park?
Weekly pool cleaning in Highland Park starts at $250 per month and typically ranges up to $400 or more for larger estate pools. The average across providers in the area runs about $300/month for weekly visits, though that varies greatly depending on pool size and tree coverage.
Starting at
$250/mo
All chemicals included
Be wary of providers quoting $240/month or less. Many charge separately for chlorine, muriatic acid, and stabilizer, which can add $100/month or more to your actual cost. Our rate includes every chemical, every visit.
What Affects Your Monthly Price
Pool size is the biggest factor. A 12,000-gallon pool off Gillon Avenue costs less to maintain than a 30,000-gallon estate pool on Lakeside Drive with a spa, water features, and a Pentair IntelliChlor salt system.
Pool volume more water means more chemicals and more time
Features spas, waterfalls, bubblers, and deck jets add complexity
Equipment age many pools here run equipment that is 20 to 40 years old, requiring more frequent filter cleans and adjusted chemical approaches
Tree coverage the mature live oaks, pecans, and magnolias mean heavier debris, more chemical demand, and longer visits
We also offer twice-weekly visits for clients who want it, at an additional cost. Some homeowners with heavy canopy coverage or larger pools prefer the extra visit during peak summer months.
Transparent Pricing, No Contracts
We quote a flat monthly rate after a free on-site inspection. No contracts. Month-to-month. If our work doesn't keep you around, a piece of paper won't either.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions About Pool Cleaning in Highland Park
Got questions? Good.
Weekly pool maintenance starts at $250/month, which includes all chemicals, weekly visits, full water testing, and our 10-point maintenance process. The average across providers in the area runs about $300/month, though that varies with pool size and tree coverage. Be cautious of quotes below $240/month that don't include chemicals. Those add-ons can push your real cost past $340/month. We quote a flat rate after a free on-site inspection. No surprises on your bill.
Our weekly service covers surface skimming, wall and tile brushing, chemical testing and balancing, filter inspection, pump and equipment checks, water level adjustment, and a detailed photo report. All chemicals are included. We test free chlorine, pH, alkalinity, CYA, and calcium hardness at every visit.
Weekly service is the standard. North Texas summers consistently hit 100-105 degrees, which accelerates algae growth dramatically. Combined with the heavy tree canopy in this area, going more than seven days between service visits risks cloudy water and chemical imbalance. We also offer twice-weekly service for clients with extensive tree coverage or larger pools who want the extra attention during peak summer months. During December through February, some pools can handle cleaning twice per month, and we're happy to discuss that at any time.
We have a money-back guarantee. If you're ever unsatisfied for any reason, simply tell us and we refund the full cost of the most recent month with zero questions asked. We've never actually had to issue one, but we like knowing the guarantee is there.
No, most of our clients aren't home when we service their pool (and honestly, that's easier for both of us). We just need reliable access to the pool and equipment pad. A photo report goes to your phone after every visit. (Your backyard dog will eventually warm up to us.)
The mature live oaks, pecans, and magnolias in this area create one of the heaviest debris loads in the Dallas metro. Live oaks shed in spring rather than fall, which surprises people. Leaf tannins leach into water and cause yellow-brown discoloration. Organic debris consumes chlorine rapidly, leaving pools underprotected between visits. We increase chemical dosing and adjust visit timing based on seasonal debris patterns.
Yes. Every Poolside technician passes a full background check before they step foot on a client's property. We understand that our clients are trusting us with access to their homes, families, and property. Background screening is a baseline requirement for us, not an optional extra. We are also fully licensed (TICL #597), bonded, and insured.
Absolutely. We service equipment of every age and brand. Many homes in this area have pool equipment that is 15 to 30 or more years old. Single-speed pumps, DE filters with cracked grids, plaster surfaces with etching from years of aggressive chemistry. We maintain what is working, tell you honestly when something is failing, and handle repairs or replacements when it is time. Same technician, same visit, no subcontractors.
We provide everything. Chlorine, muriatic acid, stabilizer, calcium hardness increaser, algaecide. All included in your monthly rate. We use professional-grade chemicals purchased in bulk, which means better quality and consistency than what you'd find at a retail pool store. You never have to buy, store, or handle pool chemicals yourself.
