With the potential freeze chances coming in, don’t forget to double check your pool equipment, your fill lines if you have one, and even your sprinkler backflow devices!

If you have automation / a remote or app for your pool equipment, it should have automatic freeze protection built in. But please double check it and if all else fails, run your pumps until the freeze temps have passed.
If you don’t have automation, take any timers off your pumps and leave them on until the freeze temps pass.
If your power happens to go out during a freeze, call or text me and I can guide you through or help you on site.
It’s always better safe than sorry when it comes to broken pipes, parts or pieces.

Moving to a new home, or about to list your current one?
I do inspections which can potentially save you from headaches whether you are buying or selling.
Home Inspectors very often don't know how a pool works, how the automation works, or even what to look for.
Contact me and we can set up an appointment!

Hayward’s new S3 salt cell is pretty good looking! You can actually see thru the housing and see the plates inside. This system also makes chlorine for you even when the salinity is low. It can be controlled with the Hayward Omni app on your phone!
I’ll always recommend a stone sealer when I install a salt cell. Contact me for more info and pricing.

It’s time to pour!
We’ve added some concrete decking at this home, extending the original amount and creating space for a table, chairs, and a fire pit. We can top it with spray deck and make it seem as if it was originally all done at the same time. We will also re-plaster the pool very soon.
 contact me today and set up an appointment so I can help you achieve your backyard vision.
