Read on to find out how to find the best Alameda County pool service and pool maintenance company for you. more »

How to Find the Best Alameda County Pool Service & Alameda County Spa Service 

After spending all that time constructing a pool or searching for a home with one already built, finding a quality pool service is the next step. Lets face it, we're not all predisposed to netting debris, cleaning filters, and balancing the chemicals in our pools and spas. Hiring a quality pool service saves you the hassle of keeping your pool and spa running cleanly and efficiently, and some can even repair your aquatic equipment.

Pool & Spa Technicians in Alameda County Make a Splash
Depending on the landscaping of your yard, seasonal weather, age of equipment, and how much you use your pool or hot tub, everyone's needs are different. That said, it is important that the pool service you choose is dependable and reliable and that you can be assured that all of your equipment is working properly. These days, with aquatic lighting, chlorine generators, heaters, pumps, and an almost unending list of other equipment and accessories, keeping your pool or spa in tip-top condition is a task best left to professionals. In order to maintain the quality of the water, pool service and spa service technicians check the chemical balance, skim the surface to remove any yard debris or insects, clean the "catcher" baskets from your pumps and filters, brush the walls of the pool and any tile work or other decorative touches, and backwash filter systems as needed. Using telescoping poles, vacuums, leaf traps, skimmer and other nets, pool brushes, leaf baggers, pumice stone, and tile brushes these Alameda County pool and spa technicians will get the walls, tiles and pool bottom spic-and-span. These guys and gals also work to maintain proper sanitation, pH, alkalinity, calcium hardness (measuring hard- or soft-water), and saturation index, which can pinpoint problems with water balance. Pool service technicians can also advise about alternative sanitizers if chlorine is not your preference, providing ozone generators, mineral sanitation, biguanides, and ionization systems.

Hot tub and pool service companies can also provide advice about different types of equipment necessary for pool and spa maintenance. You may have difficulty deciding between the numerous options of equipment available, so ask your pool service technician. For example, should you use a sand filter, cartridge filter, or Diatomaceous Earth (DE) filter? Maybe you're troubleshooting with your spa's heater or considering installing a heat pump. Or perhaps you need a pump, but aren't sure how powerful a pump you need. Alameda County pool service companies can help you with all of these concerns and more, and many can provide repair services for the equipment listed above in addition to all of the plumbing associated with your pool or spa equipment.

Some hot tub and pool services go above and beyond with additional services. Many customers are quick to overlook the ancillaries. Items such as pool lights, spa lighting, automation systems, spa jets, landscape lighting, and water effects not included in original plans can be retrofitted to existing pools and spas and the surrounding landscape. Pool and spa technicians can also advise which kind of cover you need during the different seasons. In addition, Alameda County pool and spa service and repair companies can perform the wiring for electric pool equipment, detect leaks in the plumbing or surface of the pool, perform beam repair, surface repair, coping repair, and in some cases, tile repair. Any aspect of your pool or spa's maintenance can be taken care of by one of the companies listed above.

How to Choose a Alameda County Pool & Spa Service Company 

Step 1: Describe What You're Looking For
Explain what you expect from the service. Be specific: for example, will you need basic service, equipment service, or complete rewiring of the pool accessories? Will you need to purchase new equipment in the future? How often do you need the service? Knowing the details of your requirements can save you headaches down the line.

Step 2: Ask & Answer Questions
You initial description should be followed by a line of questions from your sales representative. Take notes on his suggestions and advice, especially if you're being bombarded by new terminology.

It's essential that the employees all have a thorough understanding of the equipment they use and service. It's also important that you don't overspend or end up with future problems. This is a good chance for the technician to demonstrate his knowledge

• Do you offer equipment repair?
• Can you do equipment repairs in the shop or do you need to send them away?
• What is included in your service?
• Do you offer warranties on the repairs?
• Do you offer warranties on equipment?
• How much experience do your technicians have?
• What is included in the contract?
• How do you determine pricing?

You'll also want to do a walk-around of the pool or spa and surrounding area, pointing things out as you go. Many companies can tailor their services to your needs.

Step 3: Final Research
Before contracting a pool or spa service, verify their business licensing. You might also want to look for indications of guaranteed quality, such as Diamond Certification or Better Business Bureau Membership.

Step 4: Making the Final Decision
Once you are certain everything is in order, hire your pool service company. Get a written description of all services included and pricing information to keep for your records.

7 Pool Service Tips for Savvy Consumers 

Take Time Choosing Your Pool & Spa Service.
Not all pool and spa services are created equally. Do a little research before creating a shortlist of potential candidates. Ask around, make some calls, and jump on the Internet. For a full list of resources to use for research, check out "Key Resources for Pool & Spa Service & Repair in Alameda County."

Get an Explanation.
Your pool technician should thoroughly explain which services are included in the basic price and which services cost extra. He should not only explain what he does, but how he does it. Finally, a set schedule should be proposed and agreed upon.

Get Everything in Writing.
Insist that the initial visit is clearly documented. You can draft a simple contract if none is offered. Save a copy for your records, especially if it includes equipment repair or service.

Write a Description of Your Requirements.
Include in the contract everything that you require from the service.

Choose Certified Companies.
In Alameda County, if you can, choose companies that have earned Diamond Certification or honors from the Better Business Bureau. If you choose a pool and spa service with these particular accreditations, you're sure to experience more personalized, capable service.

Stay in Touch.
If you find that the water in your pool or spa has become murky, or if there are aspects of the agreed-upon service being overlooked, don't hesitate to speak up. Also, check in to see how well your pool equipment and accessories function.

Know Your Rights.
As a paying customer, you are afforded some protective rights depending on your location. For business transactions in Alameda County, details on consumer's legal entitlements are available at the California Department of Consumer Affairs.
