Hill Country Pools

Ever wonder what your pool service company actually does during a weekly visit? 💦

It's much more than skimming leaves and adding chemicals. A quality weekly pool service includes:

✅ Surface skimming
✅ Emptying skimmer and pump baskets
✅ Brushing walls, steps, tile, and the waterline
✅ Vacuuming the pool floor
✅ Testing and balancing water chemistry
✅ Inspecting pumps, filters, and equipment
✅ Cleaning or backwashing filters as needed
✅ Reporting maintenance concerns before they become costly repairs

These routine checks help keep your pool crystal clear, your equipment running efficiently, and small issues from turning into expensive problems.

At Hill Country Pools, our proven 8-step weekly service is designed specifically for the demands of Central Texas, from heavy pollen and hard water to intense summer heat.
