Ideal for: South Florida pool owners with surfaces 7–10+ years old, visible staining, cracks, etched plaster, or missing tile.

Pool Heater Repair & Replacement

Heat pumps, gas heaters, and solar — diagnosed right, fixed honestly, sized correctly.

Heater not heating, throwing an error code, leaking, or shutting off too soon? We diagnose heat pumps, gas heaters, and solar across every major brand — Hayward, Raypak, Pentair, AquaCal, Jandy. We start with the cheapest likely cause (a clogged filter chokes flow and is behind a huge share of "dead" heaters), then give you an honest repair-or-replace recommendation. Any repair or component replacement is quoted in writing, approved by you first, and handled under our CPC license. Gas-line upsizing, when a heater needs it, goes to a licensed gas contractor we bring in. We also catch what most companies miss: bad water chemistry and wrong-sized, mis-plumbed equipment quietly destroying your heater.

✓Full heater diagnostic — flow, ignition, error codes, pressure
✓Filter/flow check first (the #1 cause of a heater that won't fire)
✓Error code analysis (flow faults, HP/high-pressure, ignition lockout)
✓Heat pump compressor + coil service scope
✓Gas valve, burner, and igniter service scope
✓Heat exchanger inspection — repair-or-replace recommendation
✓Honest repair-vs-replace math (new heater ≈ $5K–$7K; major component ≈ $4K–$5K)
✓Correct heater sizing + diverter/plumbing check to stop premature failures
✓Repairs and component replacement managed by us under our CPC license
Ideal for: South Florida homeowners with a heater that won't heat, throws codes, leaks, or is 10+ years old and due for a repair-or-replace decision.

Commercial & HOA Pool Service

Department-of-Health-compliant service for HOAs, condos, and managed properties — we maintain the equipment that keeps pools open.

Most community pools in Palm Beach and Broward don't fail because the water gets dirty — they fail because nobody touches the equipment that keeps it clean. Our commercial program splits the job in two: a service tech does the cleaning, and a dedicated maintenance tech runs a separate route whose only job is loading every chemical croc and keeping the feeders and filters working. CPO C-105377 and FPPS #600551 certified, built around what the Department of Health actually shuts pools down for.

✓Multiple service visits per week per the pool's required schedule
✓Dedicated chemical-delivery + equipment route (crocs loaded, feeders kept running)
✓Chlorine + acid feeder and croc service on every body of water (pool + spa)
✓Flow + filter-pressure checks against permit spec
✓Full chemistry including the stabilizer most companies skip
✓Autofill + gutter water-level set for proper skimming
✓Safety-equipment check (life ring, shepherd's hook, code signage)
✓CPO-supervised, FPPS-trained technicians
Ideal for: HOA boards, condo associations, and property managers running public pools — including pools already closed by the Department of Health.

Pool Filter Deep-Clean Service

A hose rinse is not a filter cleaning. This is what actually restores flow.

Cartridge, DE, and sand filters all clog with two things a garden hose cannot remove: sunscreen and body oils bound into the pleats, and calcium scale from South Florida's hard fill water. We strip the filter down, soak the media in a degreaser and then an acid bath, inspect every band, gasket, grid, and lateral, and reassemble it to spec — then verify the pressure drop on the gauge before we leave. If the media is past saving, you get the honest call and a written replacement quote instead of a cleaning that won't hold.

✓Full teardown — housing opened, media removed, o-rings and clamp bands inspected
✓Two-stage soak: degreaser for sunscreen and body oils, then acid bath for calcium scale
✓Individual pleat, grid, or lateral inspection — tears, collapsed cores, channeling
✓Manifold, standpipe, air-relief, and pressure-gauge check
✓O-ring and gasket lubrication (replacement quoted if cracked or flattened)
✓Reassembly to manufacturer torque spec, then a live pressure test
✓Clean-baseline pressure recorded so you know when it's due again
✓Honest replace-vs-clean call with a written quote if the media is done
Ideal for: South Florida pool owners whose filter pressure sits 8+ psi above its clean baseline, whose returns have gone weak, or whose water stays cloudy no matter what the chemistry says.

Pre-Purchase Pool Inspection

Before you close, find out what the pool is really going to cost you.

Your home inspector gives the pool a ninety-second visual glance — that is not a pool inspection, and it isn't their fault; it's outside their scope. A dedicated pre-purchase pool inspection runs the equipment under load, pressure-tests the plumbing, reads the salt cell's actual output, evaluates the plaster and the screen enclosure, and gives you a written report with real repair numbers while you're still inside your inspection contingency. Buyers routinely discover $1,400–$12,000 of deferred maintenance the seller already knew about — in time to negotiate it or walk.

✓Pump tested under load — amp draw, priming, seal and impeller condition
✓Heater fired and run to temperature (a heater that starts is not a heater that works)
✓Salt cell output measured against its rated production, not just its display
✓Plumbing pressure test — suction and return lines, valves, unions
✓Filter opened and media inspected, with remaining service life estimated
✓Plaster / Diamond Brite condition — etching, mottling, hollow spots, remaining life
✓Screen enclosure structural check — anchors, corroded fasteners, panel damage
✓Automation and pool light function and safety check
✓Full water chemistry baseline (tells you how the pool was maintained)
✓Written report with photos and itemized 2026 repair costs, delivered for your contingency window
Ideal for: Buyers under contract on a South Florida home with a pool, and their agents — anyone who needs a defensible repair number before the inspection contingency expires.

Commercial Spa, Hot Tub & Therapy Pool Service

Public-spa compliance, run as a program instead of a panic.

Certified-operator water management for commercial spas, hot tubs, therapy pools, and wellness-facility vessels across South Florida. Chemistry inside 64E-9 ranges, the daily log written the day it happened, and an operator of record who answers the phone when the health department shows up.

✓Scheduled service visits sized to bather load, not to a residential route
✓Chemistry held inside public-spa ranges, not homeowner ranges
✓Free and combined sanitizer tested every visit
✓Turnover and circulation verified against the vessel's requirement
✓Filter service and equipment-room inspection
✓Safety equipment check: emergency shutoff, drain covers, signage, depth marker
✓Daily-log system set up and maintained for inspection readiness
✓Certified operator of record for the facility
✓Documented incident and closure protocol
Ideal for: Med spas, wellness centers, gyms and recovery studios, physical therapy and aquatic therapy clinics, hotels, clubs, and HOA or condominium spa amenities.

Cold Plunge & Contrast Therapy Water Service

The vessel with the highest bather load and the least oversight.

Water management for cold plunges and contrast therapy suites — commercial and residential. Cold water slows disinfection while holding a steady sanitizer reading, which is exactly why plunges go bad without ever looking like it.

✓Full chemistry test including combined sanitizer, the reading plunges actually fail on
✓Sanitizer program sized for low-temperature disinfection, not copied from a pool
✓Cartridge service and rotation
✓Chiller loop inspection, purge, and airflow check
✓Drain, shell clean, refill, and rebalance on a load-driven schedule
✓Contrast suites: separate protocol and log per vessel
✓Written testing routine your staff or household can follow between visits
Ideal for: Gyms, recovery studios, med spas, and wellness lounges running commercial plunges — plus homeowners with a chilled, recirculating plunge or a tri-temp backyard installation.

Pool Tile Cleaning & Calcium Removal

That white band on your tile is calcium scale, not dirt. It does not scrub off.

South Florida fill water comes out of a limestone aquifer at 250–350 ppm calcium hardness. As water evaporates off the surface, the calcium it was carrying stays behind and bonds to the waterline tile — which is why the white band keeps coming back no matter how hard anyone scrubs it. We assess the scale, match the method to the tile (pumice for light film, glass-bead blasting for hard scale), and correct the water chemistry that caused it so it does not return in six months.

✓Scale assessment — depth, hardness, and how much of it is scale versus staining
✓Tile-material check before any method is chosen (glass, stone, and pebble behave differently)
✓Pumice-stone cleaning for light film and fresh deposits
✓Glass-bead blasting for hardened scale that pumice will not lift
✓Grout-line inspection, with loose or failing tile flagged before we work on it
✓Full LSI-based chemistry rebalance so the scale does not immediately return
✓Optional tile sealing to slow redeposition
✓Before-and-after photos on your service report
Ideal for: South Florida pool owners with a white or gray band along the waterline tile that will not brush off — most often on pools filled from hard municipal or well water, and worst on pools that run warm or have a spillover feature.

Pool Leak Detection

Find it before anyone cuts concrete. The bad guess costs more than the detection.

A pool that keeps dropping is either evaporating or leaking, and the difference is a bucket and 24 hours. Once a leak is confirmed, finding it is the whole job — every leak call we take runs the same staged diagnostic (bucket test, dye at the suspect fittings, pump-on versus pump-off isolation, then pressure-testing the suction and return lines separately) to narrow the source before anything gets opened up. We manage it from first call to final fix, bringing in a dedicated leak-detection specialist when the job calls for it: the repair is managed by us under our CPC license, quoted in writing and approved by you before it starts.

✓Bucket test confirmation — leak versus evaporation, so you are not paying to chase weather
✓Loss-rate measurement to size the problem and set urgency
✓Pump-on / pump-off isolation to separate pressure-side from suction-side from shell
✓Dye testing at skimmer throats, light niches, returns, and main-drain fittings
✓Equipment-pad inspection — unions, seals, valves, filter and heater connections
✓Pressure testing of suction and return lines individually where the leak is underground
✓A written finding with the location, the likely cause, and photos
✓Repair quoted in writing and managed by us under our CPC license
Ideal for: South Florida pool owners losing more than a quarter-inch a day, watching a water bill climb with an autofill quietly covering the loss, or seeing a soggy patch in the yard, wet equipment pad, or deck settling near the pool.

Pool Acid Wash

A stained pool is not always a resurfacing job. Usually it is a wash.

An acid wash removes a thin layer of stained or scaled plaster and gives you back the surface without the cost of resurfacing — roughly a tenth of the price on a pool whose plaster is still structurally sound. We inspect first, because the honest answer is sometimes that you do not need one, and sometimes that you need resurfacing instead. When it is the right call we handle the whole sequence: permits and water disposal, the drain, the wash, neutralizing the runoff, refill, and the 28-day plaster startup that decides whether the refresh lasts five years or one.

✓Pre-wash inspection — confirming the plaster is sound enough to wash rather than resurface
✓Drain permitting and wastewater neutralization where the municipality requires it
✓Water-table and drain-timing assessment before the pool comes down
✓Controlled drain, then a full rinse and second inspection of the empty shell
✓Sectioned acid wash, top-down, rinsed section by section
✓Soda-ash neutralization of all runoff, with pH tested before discharge
✓Refill from a single source at a controlled rate
✓The 28-day plaster startup protocol — daily brushing, no shock, managed pH and alkalinity
Ideal for: South Florida pool owners with embedded algae or mineral staining, uniform discoloration, or post-green-pool stain ghosting on plaster that is still structurally sound — no widespread cracking, delamination, or exposed aggregate.

Pool Equipment Repair

Diagnosed with a meter and a flow test, not a guess. Quoted before anything is ordered.

When something on the equipment pad quits, the expensive mistake is replacing the wrong thing. We diagnose the actual failure — capacitor versus windings, lost prime versus fouled impeller, a starved heater versus a dead one — and give you the repair-or-replace math in writing before any part is ordered. Repair and replacement work is managed by us under our CPC license, approved by you first. No surprise invoices, and one company accountable from diagnosis to fix.

✓Full equipment-pad diagnostic — pump, motor, filter, heater, salt cell, valves, automation
✓Pump and motor diagnosis by multimeter and flow test, not by ear
✓Repair-or-replace recommendation with the payback math, in writing
✓Filter evaluation with an honest rebuild-versus-replace call
✓Heater troubleshooting, including the flow faults that masquerade as dead heaters
✓Salt cell output measured under load, with remaining life estimated
✓Automation and timer diagnostic, including schedule and error-log review
✓All repair and replacement managed by us under our CPC license
Ideal for: South Florida pool owners with a pump that hums and won't spin, a heater throwing a flow fault, weak returns, a dripping seal plate, a salt cell reading low, or a breaker that trips every time the system starts.

Commercial Pool Repair

The equipment that closes community pools, repaired by a state-certified pool contractor that also holds the operator credentials.

Community pools rarely close because the water got dirty. They close because a feeder quit, a filter bank choked the flow below the permit's required gallons per minute, or a drain cover cracked, and nobody fixed it before the inspector walked up. We repair commercial pool equipment for HOAs, condos, apartment communities, and hotels across Palm Beach and Broward: pumps and motors, filter banks, chlorine and acid feeders, controllers, heaters, autofills, collector tanks, and anti-entrapment drain covers. Every repair is diagnosed first, quoted in writing, and managed by us under our Florida Certified Pool/Spa Contractor license (CPC1461731), with trusted specialists brought in when a job calls for it. We also hold the two operator credentials Florida requires on a public pool, CPO and FPPS, so the repair is made with the inspection in mind, not just the part.

✓Pump and motor diagnosis and repair on equipment that runs around the clock
✓Filter bank service and repair — sand, DE, and cartridge — read against your permit's flow requirement
✓Chlorine and acid feeder repair and replacement, so every pool and spa has both running
✓Flow meter checks against the gallons per minute on your operating permit
✓Controller, probe, and automation troubleshooting
✓Commercial heater diagnosis and repair
✓Anti-entrapment drain cover and main drain grate replacement, with cover dates tracked
✓Autofill, gutter, and collector tank troubleshooting
✓Written, line-item quotes a board or property manager can approve
Ideal for: HOA boards, condo associations, property managers, apartment communities, and hotels with a pool that is losing flow, running on a dead feeder, throwing controller errors, or already carrying a Department of Health closure notice on the gate.

Commercial Pool Resurfacing

Resurfacing for HOA, condo, apartment, and hotel pools, planned around your residents, your board, and the health department.

Resurfacing a community pool is a different job from resurfacing a backyard one. The surface is larger, everyone loses the pool while it's down, the board needs a number it can vote on, and a public pool comes with health-department requirements a home pool never sees. We resurface HOA, condo, apartment, and hotel pools across Palm Beach and Broward: plaster, quartz, and pebble finishes, waterline and step-edge tile, and main drain covers brought up to code while the pool is empty. Every job is managed by us start to finish under our Florida Certified Pool/Spa Contractor license (CPC1461731), with trusted specialists brought in where the job calls for it, and we run the 28-day startup ourselves.

✓Site walk with a written condition report the board can circulate
✓Line-item proposal — drain, prep, finish, tile, drain covers, refill, and startup priced separately
✓Finish options: plaster, quartz, Diamond Brite, and pebble
✓Waterline tile, step-edge tile, and depth-marker tile reset or replaced
✓Main drain covers brought to current anti-entrapment code while the pool is empty
✓Health-department requirements confirmed with the county before the pool is drained
✓Drain timed to the water table, with the hydrostatic relief valve checked first
✓Refill and the full 28-day startup, run by us
✓Downtime scheduled around the season, your residents, and a target reopening date
Ideal for: HOA boards, condo associations, property managers, and hotel operators with a community pool that's rough underfoot, delaminating, staining, or losing its finish — or a reserve study that says the surface is due.

Pool Plaster Repair

Not every crack needs a resurface. Chips, cracks, and hollow spots patched right, or an honest answer when a patch won't hold.

Most of the plaster problems we're called about don't need a new surface. A chipped step edge, a hairline crack, a hollow spot that sounds dead when you tap it, or plaster flaking near a return can often be repaired on its own, without paying for a resurface. We inspect first and tell you which one you're looking at: a spot repair, an acid wash, a chemistry problem, or a finish that's genuinely at the end of its life. When a repair is the right call, we cut the failed plaster back to a sound edge and patch it, and we're straight with you about color match, because a patch on older plaster or an aggregate finish rarely disappears completely.

✓Surface inspection — tap test for hollow spots, crack mapping, and a check for etching and exposed aggregate
✓Chip repair on step edges, benches, and around fittings
✓Hairline and surface crack repair
✓Delaminated (hollow) plaster cut back to a sound edge and patched
✓Small repairs often done underwater, without draining the pool
✓Water chemistry checked, so the cause isn't still eating the plaster
✓Water-loss check when a crack comes with a dropping water level
✓Honest color-match expectations before any work starts
✓A written repair-or-resurface recommendation
Ideal for: Pool owners with a chipped step, a hairline crack, a hollow or flaking spot, or a rough patch on plaster that's otherwise sound — and anyone who's been told they need a full resurface and wants a second opinion first.
