Behind the Scenes: A Day in the Life of a Pool Maintenance Company



When looking for the best pool maintenance company, it's important to do your research to find a reliable and experienced provider. Searching online for top-rated companies near you and checking reviews can help narrow your options. Key factors to consider are a company's track record, range of services offered, and use of quality equipment and supplies. Taking these steps will help lead you to the best pool maintenance company that meets your needs. 

A Day in the Life: Allied Aquatics Complete Pool Care Company

6 AM: Loading the Trucks

The day starts early at Allied Aquatics Complete Pool Care as the technicians arrive at the shop to load up their trucks with all the necessary cleaning tools and chemicals for the day’s scheduled pool service appointments. They stock trucks with vacuum hoses, poles, leaf nets, brushes, water testing kits, chlorine, pH balancing chemicals, and anything else that may be needed to provide thorough, expert-level care of both residential and commercial pools on their routes. The teams work efficiently together to double check everything is loaded and ready to hit the road for a full day of pool maintenance ahead. 

8 AM: Residential Pool Maintenance 

The Allied Aquatics Complete Pool Care crews each have a full schedule of residential pools to visit. The first stop of the day is the Jones’ family backyard pool. The technician begins by removing any debris like leaves or bugs from the water’s surface with a leaf net, then checks the filter equipment to ensure proper flow and operation. Next, water chemistry levels are tested and chlorine, pH adjuster, or other chemicals are added as needed to achieve safe, balanced and inviting water per standards. The technician then thoroughly vacuums the pool floors and walls with a vacuum hose, using the pole attachment to reach corners and crevices. Lastly, the basket, pump, and filter are backwashed and cleaned before concluding the service.

11 AM: Commercial Pool Maintenance

Mid-morning means it’s time for the teams to tackle scheduled services at commercial pool locations. Allied Aquatics Complete Pool Care has built a reputation for excellence among apartment complexes, hotels, athletic clubs, and homeowners’ associations. The technicians arrive with experience servicing large-scale community pools and understand what’s required for the utmost safety for all guests. After testing and balancing chemicals per health code regulations, they use industrial vacuums and pole attachments to efficiently clean floors, walls, and hard-to-reach areas in these expansive pools. Management is provided with detailed service reports after each meticulous cleaning.  

1 PM: Lunch Break

A quick lunch break allows the crews to refuel before resuming the jam-packed schedule for the day. Eating well is essential when you spend full days on your feet providing physical pool care! The teams try to coordinate meetups for a quick bite whenever routes allow. Lunch chat includes talk of recent pool services, equipment recommendations, and even sharing a few laughs - because working with a trusted crew makes a taxing job enjoyable. After lunch, it’s back to another round of appointments. 

3 PM: Equipment Repair and Replacement

No two service days are the same in the pool maintenance business! This afternoon, the schedule has appointments for assessing equipment repairs and replacements. The tech evaluates an aging pool pump that is leaking and provides options to the customer for rebuilt or new pumps - listing pros/cons of costs, warranty coverage, and energy efficiency ratings for each. At another house, the sweeper attachment on the automated pool cleaner isn’t functioning. After inspection, the technician removes broken parts and replaces components to have it working again. Keeping detailed notes on repairs and quotes allows seamless follow-up with customers on parts orders and scheduling.

5 PM: Return and Unload 

As closing time approaches, the last few pools on the route get serviced before heading back to home base to wrap up the day. Every bucket, tool, hose, and pole goes back to its proper place to allow immediate access again in the morning. The technicians do a thorough check of their trucks and note any inventory needing replenishment so purchasing orders can go in - whether more shock treatment, test strips, or new vacuum heads. Before clocking out in the evening, the techs empty debris, backwash filters on company trucks, tally up balances, and give their equipment a final wipe down until another eight hours of pool care begins!

Before clocking out for the evening, the technicians perform a thorough check of their trucks, backwashing filters, and wiping down all equipment. This ensures that everything is in top condition for the next day's service calls. They also review their daily balances, ensuring that all tasks are accounted for and any necessary paperwork is completed.

This level of attention to detail is what sets our commercial pool maintenance service in Plano apart. Our technicians are committed to providing top-notch service, ensuring that every pool we maintain is clean, safe, and ready for enjoyment.
