We diagnose before we quote a part
Paying for a part that was never the problem is the complaint we hear most from people who called someone else first. When equipment fails or the water quality drops, our technicians work out what actually broke before they tell you what it will cost. That covers pump and motor repair or replacement, pool heater diagnostics and restoration, filter system servicing and component replacement, salt cell generator installation and replacement, chlorinators, automated system troubleshooting, leak and plumbing repair, and structural and surface repairs such as cracks, chips and worn plaster.
Repair, or is it time to remodel
A cracked chip or a tired pump is usually a repair. A shell that keeps cracking in the same places, plaster that has already been patched more than once, or equipment that keeps failing faster than it can be kept up with is usually the point where a remodel costs less over a few years than another round of repairs. We will tell you which one you are looking at.

What each part does
The three parts that fail most.
Pump and motor
The pump pulls water through the system so it can be filtered and treated. Weak flow, a loud grinding noise, a breaker that keeps tripping, or water that stays cloudy no matter how much you shock it are all signs the pump or motor is on its way out.
Heater
The heater brings the water up to a set temperature and holds it there. A heater that will not ignite, throws an error code, or lets the water drift cooler than it should, along with a gas or power bill that has crept up, usually means it needs a look before it fails outright.
Filter
The filter catches debris and fine particles as water passes through it. Cloudy water even when the chemistry checks out right, a pressure gauge reading higher than usual, or backwashing more often than you used to are the filter telling you it needs servicing.
Usually a repair
- A single part has failed and the rest of the system is sound.
- A crack or chip is isolated, not spreading across the surface.
- The pool has never needed a plaster patch before.
Worth talking about a remodel
- The same section has cracked or leaked more than once.
- Plaster has already been patched and is failing again.
- Equipment is failing faster than repairs can keep up with it.
