    Water Feature Maintenance in Hamilton, ON

    A water feature can boost curb appeal or add to the feng shui of your space, but whatever your reason for having a fountain, they always need maintenance. Without the right treatment and cleaning practices, water can get smelly, discoloured and can have a major impact on the overall condition of your space. Instead of dealing with the aftermath, have an expert handle your Hamilton water feature maintenance.

    Ponds and fountains are a huge draw for exterior places but they can also help to brighten up interiors as well. The needs of each of these will vary depending on the surrounding areas, particularly the plant life. An indoor fountain, for example is more at risk of spills and other contaminants, while an outdoor water fountain can easily be clogged up with pollen, leaves and other debris.

    Water Feature Care: Getting Back to Basics

    When managing a water feature, care and maintenance does not stop at water alone. In the same way that pools need to be cleaned regularly, so do fountains - and there is a right way and a wrong way to do this. Anyone can pop out for a basic algae remover or brush, but putting them to use is a much different story.

    Taking the wrong approach to clean your fountain can lead to tears in liners or overlooked issues, like a clogged filter or sitting residue. A basic algae remover can help to eliminate growth and bacteria that is already there but it does not do much for those things that are leading to this invasive growth. In addition to improving looks, water fountain cleaning can help to eliminate health risk associated with contaminated water.

    Try as you might, there is no way to stop children from dipping a hand into a fountain or having animals hopping through water gardens. For humans, ingesting just a bit of contaminated water can lead to serious illness, while just coming into contact with it can lead to skin or eye irritations. If appearance was not enough of a reason to clean your fountain regularly, this should be!

    Monitoring condition of shells, liners and water levels is important but so are the unseen areas of your system. Depending on the style and placement of a wall fountain, for example, your fountain pump might be located behind a panel or in other hard to reach areas. This makes it extremely easy to just forget about them, but this can lead to serious strain on motors and lead to expensive repair or replacement bills. Instead of gambling with health or your budget, call a Puddle Pool Pro today!

    Water Fountain Maintenance: The Best Results

    As the colder season rolls around, it is easy enough to cover the fountain around your property, but just throwing a tarp over your water feature is not enough to maintain condition. Whether you are hoping to service a running fountain or are looking to close down for a long time, it is always best to consult the experts.

    The technicians at Puddle Pools are not your average fountain cleaners. After years of experience in the industry, our specialists can keep your fountain running both indoors and out. Outdoor fountain pumps can be difficult to navigate, but not for our pros. Hiring a Puddle Pro means access to water treatments, as well as a full clean of liners and inspection of hardware. Imbalanced chemicals can lead to rust and corrosion, so keeping track of these is key to prolonging the lifespan of your system.

    Hamilton Water Feature Maintenance: Frequently Asked Questions

    What are the pool fence rules in Hamilton?

    Hamilton's Swimming Pool Enclosure By-law No. 16-184 (amended by By-law No. 22-059) covers any outdoor private pool able to hold more than 0.6 m of water, including hot tubs and landscape ponds; the enclosure needs a building permit. It must be at least 1.5 m high, pass no 100 mm sphere and stand at least 1.0 m from the inside pool wall. Gates need a self closing device plus a self latching device at least 1.35 m up on the inside. Water may not go in until the enclosure has final City approval, so confirm details with the City.

    Can water shortages affect filling a pool in Hamilton well communities?

    Yes. Under the City's Low Level Water Conditions program, well communities are asked to cut water use by at least 10 percent at Level 1 and at least 20 percent at Level 2. Level 3 brings province approved restrictions. Owners in well communities should check the City's posted level before filling a pool in a dry summer.

    Which Hamilton neighborhoods do you cover?

    We look after pools across Hamilton, including Ancaster & Dundas, Hamilton Mountain, Downtown Hamilton, Stoney Creek & Winona, Waterdown & Flamborough and Binbrook & Mount Hope. The full list of areas is on our Hamilton page. If you do not see yours, get in touch and we will confirm.

    What kinds of water features do you maintain?

    Fountains and water features indoors and outdoors, from residential features to large commercial ones in places like hotels and shopping malls, as well as water features built into pools. Each one gets a treatment plan suited to its size, age and materials.

    Do fountains really need water treatment if nobody swims in them?

    Yes. Like pools, fountains need balanced water and a working circulation system. Organic debris, bacteria and anything visitors drop in all affect the water, and an imbalance leads to algae, staining and wear on pumps, filters and motors.

    Bri and her team have been taking care of our hot tub for years now. They are absolutely the best! Communicating with Bri is very easy and she responds immediately. She always tells me of any changes to their schedule and are always on time. She has also repeatedly tried to teach me how to balance our tub myself but unfortunately I’m hopeless. I highly recommend this team for you pool and hot tub needs.

    This is our first year using this pool service and it was outstanding. Our technician was extremely knowledgeable and helpful and their service was far more superior than our other provider. Our services included biweekly maintenance and pool closing. Can’t wait for next year to schedule pool opening. Well Done!!!!!

    Bree ★★★★★

    TJ and Bri were awesome! We reached out asking about a new heater and TJ responded right away with options. He was knowledgeable and on time when they came to hook up the new heater. They also scrapped our old one for us. Great experience and would use them again for any pool needs.

    Mary Burrows ★★★★★

    Started using Puddle Pools last year and they are very professional, always on time and their team is great. Not just for opening or closing but also repairs. Highly recommend!

    Lindsay Schenk ★★★★★

    We recently hired Puddles Pool Services to complete a pool inspection for our buyers during a real estate transaction, and they were absolutely outstanding from start to finish. Despite a very tight timeline, TJ and Mark were able to accommodate our request and fit us into their schedule, which was greatly appreciated. They arrived on time, were professional and efficient, and conducted a thorough inspection of the pool and equipment. Their communication was excellent, and they provided the information we needed promptly, helping to keep the transaction moving smoothly. It's clear they take pride in their work and value their clients. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone in need of a pool inspection and will definitely use their services again in the future. Thank you for the exceptional service! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    Professionals from start to finish. I've used a few different pool services over the years and there is no comparison to TJ and his team. I had them perform a comprehensive leak detection and followed that up with a leak repair. Their expertise, top of the line equipment, and friendliness made the entire experience quick and easy. They keep you informed all the way through the process and in terms of value for dollar, they can't be beat. I wish I could give six stars!

    Tina Riddles ★★★★★

    TJ and his team go above and beyond opening and closing our pool. Exceptional service! We have had other pool companies in the past but nothing compares to Puddle Pools. I would definitely recommend them!!
