Although we don’t offer swimming pool cleaning as a service sometimes we do it for our regular customers who use our handyman, plumbing, or painting and decorating services. We clean this pool regularly, check PH levels, add chemicals, adjust water temperature, hoover leaves and dirt and clean pump filters. We also pressure wash their patio twice a year and paint heavy metal benches and other patio furniture.

Handyman’s tip: Check PH levels regularly and don’t let your water turn green. When your water turns green it takes a lot of time and chemicals to bring it back to normal levels. Needless to say, it’s not advisable to use your swimming pool during this process.

As you can see in this image the water turned green and stinky because no one bothered to check it for a few weeks. It’s nice having a swimming pool but unfortunately, it requires regular maintenance. It’s not just a case of filling it up with water and enjoying it all year round.

Swimming pool maintenance

Regular swimming pool maintenance is vital for ensuring water clarity, sanitation, and safety. Proper upkeep prevents algae growth, maintains balanced chemical levels, and extends the lifespan of pool equipment. Routine cleaning and inspections also help identify potential issues early, reducing the risk of costly repairs and ensuring enjoyable swimming experiences. Reading Handyman Services don’t provide this as a service at the moment. If you don’t have a handy person that can help you with your maintenance you might need to sign a contract with one of the local pool maintenance companies who will come out every week and maintain your pool
