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 Park Cities runs about $300/month, though that varies with pool size and tree coverage. Be cautious of quotes below $240/month that exclude chemicals. Those add-ons can push your real cost well 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.

Yes. University Park's Code Enforcement enforces a stagnant water ordinance similar to Highland Park's. A neglected or green pool qualifies as a violation, and fines can reach $500 per occurrence. Neighbors can report directly. Weekly professional service is the simplest way to stay compliant. We keep your water clear, balanced, and circulating so you never have to think about it.

University Park's 2024 tree inventory shows roughly 50% oaks (live oaks and red oaks), plus pecans and crape myrtles throughout the city. Live oaks shed in spring, not fall, which catches people off guard. Pecans drop shells, husks, and catkins every October through November. Leaf tannins discolor water and organic debris consumes chlorine rapidly, leaving pools underprotected between visits. We adjust chemical dosing and visit timing based on seasonal debris patterns in your specific neighborhood.

Weekly service is the standard. North Texas summers consistently hit 100 to 105 degrees, which accelerates algae growth dramatically. Combined with heavy tree canopy in this area, going more than seven days between visits risks cloudy water and chemical imbalance. We also offer twice-weekly service for clients with extensive tree coverage or larger pools who want extra attention during peak summer months.

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.

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. The neighborhoods around SMU have some of the oldest residential pools in the Park Cities. We service equipment of every age and brand, including systems that are 20 to 40 years old. Single-speed pumps, DE filters, plaster surfaces with decades of wear. We maintain what is working, tell you honestly when something is approaching failure, 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.
