One employee, no subcontracting, payments c.o.d. upon completion of work. Deposit on special orders only such as spa covers or custom form-fit swimming pool safety covers. I have been in the spa and swimming pool business for 30 years. I am fully insured and provide prompt, reliable service year round. All work is guaranteed. I stand by my diagnosis and will be completely honest on cost of parts and labor. Phone calls always returned and I'll show up when I say I will or you will receive a courtesy call with the option to re-schedule.

"Used him a couple of times to winterize my spa and thought he was good until a manifold burst coz a pipe froze and suddenly he was no where to be found. Has anyone managed to reach him … been calling since early May 2025 it’s no 06Jun2025 and nothing. @Bill please call me, I would like to update this review if you reach out. used his service for over 3 years. Help your customer out Bill. At this point until I talk to Bill, I will say winterize at your own risk. It’s heading to summer and I can use my spa or get a hold of the man"

"Having a Latham 36’x18’x8’ vinyl pool installed. Worst nightmare I’ve ever had to deal with. They are complete s*** and communication is vague at best and non-existent at worst. Be extremely careful with your budget when you deal with them because all you get for the money is the pool kit and kit install all else is out of pocket. The “all else” out of pocket means electrical hook up $3500, permits $500, gas heater hook up $1500, excavation $3500, cleaning equipment $1000 (included equipment by Pools Plus is a vacuum hose and net maybe $50 ?), concrete decking $15000, additional water if needed (which you will need for pool this size) $650, pump shed $400 to cover that unsightly, untreated plywood, $7000 minimum for fence, and whatever additional amount I will need to pay to have the trash hauled off if this job ever gets completed. Just know, you need to add a minimum of $20K but more near $30K to whatever price quote they give you and you will act as the contractor scheduling all subcontractors. You only get a 1 year warranty on the install work, and this includes the vermiculite base which is well known for water permeability damage after only a few years in this area. Every time someone comes to the house regarding this d*** pool I need my checkbook near. My suggestion pay more and get quality without the stress, frustration, and headaches."

All the people they have recommended to us to complete the electrical, gas connection, and hardscape were highly professional. Thank you Andrew, Brandon, Dave and Nick.

Pool and Spa Servicing questions, answered by experts

Though a hot tub has many benefits, there are a few cons. Mainly, hot tubs require a lot of maintenance. You’ll need to deep clean yours quarterly, test the pH at least once or twice a week, and add sanitizing chemicals once a week. They also have relatively high ongoing costs since you’ll need to pay for electricity and repairs. 

When your hot tub is completely dry, there is typically no need to introduce antifreeze into the plumbing. However, if you desire an extra layer of protection against potential freeze damage, you can consider adding some RV antifreeze to your hot tub lines. Just ensure that you use RV antifreeze specifically, as automotive antifreeze is highly toxic and should be avoided.

Most newer hot tubs are not expensive to maintain. Hot tub maintenance costs about $500 to $1,000 per year. You can DIY, but a pro can clean and treat your hot tub with chemicals and save you time. The biggest hot tub expenses are heating and repairs, but you can preserve your investment with regular maintenance.

Follow these general safety tips for spas and hot tubs:

  • Keep your exterior electrical receptacles covered and dry, especially around your hot tub and pool during periods of use.

  • Make sure you have a GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) properly installed to ensure no one gets accidentally shocked or injured by electrocution. 

  • Don’t use the hot tub or your pool during a thunderstorm. 

  • Before using the hot tub, have a certified electrician thoroughly inspect your hot tub and its wiring to make sure you’re in full compliance with all applicable local building codes. 

Most hot tubs use between 1,500 watts and 6,000 watts of electricity, depending on the voltage of your heater. 120-volt heaters tip toward the low end, and 240-volt heaters tip toward the high end. Expect your pump to add another 1,500 watts. Newer, energy-efficient models use less electricity, while older models use more.
