At Pool Scouts, we pride ourselves on providing quality service that customers can believe in. Whether it is openings, closings or service, we can take care of all of your swimming pool maintenance and cleaning needs. Ask us about our weekly service. We look forward to working with you!

"It started great until this last couple of weeks. Quick rundown: Over the past few months my mother has been sick and has been taking care of her. My mother passed away in the middle of October and I had to pay for the funeral out of pocket. The following week Pool Scout came out to my home and I called in for payments. I told the lady DO NOT KEEP MY CARD ON FILE because at the beginning of the month I will be using another card So first she drafted more money than what I approved. I let that slide BUT THEN I looked at my bank account on Nov 1st and just who drafted my card. Bad business. I have been a customer for a year so I had to cut ties."

Pool Construction and Installation questions, answered by experts

Increases living space and adds value to the home through enhanced utility.

Small animals, particularly rats and mice, like to burrow inside pool heaters. To keep them out, seal any entry points with caulk or steel wool. Then, place mothballs inside or around your pool heater. As a final measure of protection, you can cover the pool heater in hardware cloth or wood paneling to further block entry points.

There are many factors to consider when building an in-ground concrete pool. This includes the pool’s primary purpose (relaxation or exercise) if you live in a warm or cold climate (how often it’ll be used), and if you have the budget for chemical treatments and pool maintenance. In-ground pools are often more costly than aboveground pools, but they’re considered more luxurious and hold more value.

If you are installing a fiberglass pool, you may want to install or update your patio or deck at the same time to create a safe, comfortable place to sit and dry off or grab a bite to eat after swimming. You might also consider adding a hot tub to the mix, which costs $6,000 on average.

If you don’t have the budget for one, there are numerous ways to warm up your pool without a heater. You can improve the insulation, use solar covers to trap heat from the sun, or even let a black hose sit in the sun until it heats up and delivers fresh, warm water straight to your pool.
