Our Services

Closing your pool right before winter in Dover, Delaware is crucial to avoid costly freeze damage and keep the water clean for next season. A proper pool closing service handles the chemical balance, ensuring pH and chlorine levels are set so water won’t corrode pipes or cause algae growth over the cold months. We thoroughly remove leaves, twigs and any debris that could trap moisture and cause mold or rust under the cover. The cover is tightened securely, with straps and water bags, so wind or snow won’t lift it and expose the pool to the elements. Our team checks all fittings, drains the pump and heater, and adds antifreeze where needed to protect equipment from freezing. By taking these steps now you’ll save time, money, and headaches when spring arrives. If you need help, call (888) 488-9051.
