    Keeping your pool running smoothly takes a lot more than a skimming every now and then.

    Our services

    Cleaning, Repairs & Maintenance You Can Count On

    • Skimming, wall brushing, and vacuuming
    • Professional water testing and chemical balancing
    • Filter basket clearing and routine filter washing
    • Multi-point equipment line inspections
    • New Homeowner Spa Refresh: Just moved into a home with an existing spa? Our complete system flush, deep sanitization, and filter reset give you a clean, worry-free fresh starting point.
    • Components we repair: pumps, motors, cartridge/DE filters, pool heaters, salt chlorine generators,
      and smart automation systems.
    • Preventative inspections: We catch failing seals, cracked O-rings, and electrical wear early to extend your equipment’s life, in turn saving you from costly unexpected expenses.
    • Fall closing & winterization: Safe equipment shutdown, winter chemical treatment and protective cover placement.

    Commercial Pool Services

    Commercial pools face significantly higher bather loads and stricter regulatory scrutiny than residential setups. We understand the unique demands of the Charlotte climate - from the heavy pollen of spring to the humid heat of a Carolina summer.

    Hot Tub & Spa Care

    Hot tubs are meant for relaxation… until the water turns cloudy, jets lose pressure, or the water chemistry gets out of balance. We service all major spa brands with ongoing weekly and bi-weekly maintenance to keep your hot tub safe, clean, and comfortable.

    Pool Closing

    Puddle Pool Services provides the most reliable Charlotte pool closing by combining local expertise with a meticulous pool winterization process that prevents freeze damage.

    Pool Equipment Repair & Inspections

    Is your pool pump making loud grinding noises, or is your heater refusing to ignite? Our certified technicians diagnose and repair all major equipment brands.

    Seasonal Pool Opening & Closing

    While Charlotte winters are mild, proper pool winterization protects plumbing lines, reduces off-season energy costs, and prevents freeze damage.

    Residential Pool Services

    Charlotte’s climate presents unique challenges for pool owners. Our local expertise ensures your water chemistry remains balanced even during the hottest July stretches.

    Water Feature Maintenance

    Keeping water features clean in Charlotte brings unique challenges with our hot summers and mild winters. Those beautiful fountains and water features that enhance your property need regular attention to stay pristine.

    Pool Maintenance

    In Charlotte, spring doesn’t just bring flowers; it brings a thick blanket of yellow pine pollen. This is the most critical time for your filtration system.

    Routine Pool Cleaning & Maintenance

    Keep your backyard swim-ready all season without adding another chore to your weekend list. Between work and family, testing pool chemicals and vacuuming shouldn’t take up your free time. We offer flexible weekly, bi-weekly, and twice-weekly pool service, which includes:

    Green Pool Recovery & Water Restoration

    Whether a pump failed while you were on vacation or an inherited pool looks more like a pond, a green pool doesn’t have to stay that way. Our green-to-clean restoration process combines heavy-duty shock treatments, flocking, deep vacuuming, and filter regeneration to bring even severe algae blooms back to crystal-clear blue.

    After every visit

    Your Charlotte E-Report

    Before we leave, you get a report with photos of your pool, the chemical readings we took and a checklist of everything we did. No guessing what happened while you were at work.

    • Time-stamped before and after photos
    • Chemical readings from every visit
    • A checklist of the work completed

    1. A real person always answers the phone.

      We actually answer the phone. Try it. Seriously. Call us at 704-741-2185 and a real person will pick up, not a voicemail maze and not a call center three states away.
    2. We show up on schedule.

      If we say we’ll be there Wednesday between 10 and noon, we’ll be there Wednesday between 10 and noon. Wild concept, we know.
    3. No sneaky upsells.

      If your pool needs a new pump, we’ll tell you. If it doesn’t, we’re not going to pretend it does. Our reputation matters more than squeezing out a one-time sale.
    4. We know Charlotte.

      High pollen season coating everything yellow? Yep. Heavy storm debris after summer downpours? Seen it. Clay-heavy soil that settles and shifts? Dealt with that too. Local challenges require local experience, and that’s exactly what we bring to every property.
    5. Detailed photo reports after every visit.

      Wondering what actually happened while we were at your pool? We’ll show you. After every service visit, we provide detailed photo reports so you can see the work completed, track your pool’s condition, and stay informed without having to be home.

    Solutions to Common Weather Challenges in North Carolina

    Spring Pollen & Yellow Dust

    Charlotte’s spring pollen season is legendary. Fully coating everything in yellow dust, including your pool and hot tub. Left unchecked, heavy pollen clogs pool filters, clouds water, and triggers rapid algae growth. Our team boosts surface skimming, performs routine filter cleanings and balances water chemistry to protect your equipment during our peak pollen season.

    Summer Thunderstorms & Heavy Debris

    Severe summer thunderstorms in the Charlotte area blow leaves, branches, and debris straight into your pool. Sudden downpours also dilute chlorine levels and strain your pump. Following major weather events, we clear skimmer baskets, vacuum submerged debris, inspect equipment, and rebalance your water chemistry to prevent sudden algae blooms.

    Carolina Heat

    Hot, humid Carolina summers accelerate water evaporation and put severe stress on your system. While a minor water drop is expected, significant losses often signal a hidden leak. We offer professional pool leak detection to pinpoint and resolve leaks quickly. High heat also forces pumps, heaters, and salt systems to work overtime. This leads to overheated motors, worn seals, or warped components. During every service visit, we inspect your equipment to stop minor wear from turning into costly repairs.

    Vacation Pool Service & Algae Growth

    Summer is prime travel time, but leaving your pool unattended in the Charlotte heat can lead to rapid algae growth. If chlorine levels drop for even a few days, your pool can turn green overnight. We provide flexible vacation pool care including temporary maintenance, chemical balancing, and green pool recovery, so you return home to crystal-clear water.

    My husband and I I have been working with Puddle for a while and they do great work. As a first time pool owner having someone help with pool cleaning and maintenance has been invaluable!

And if Chris comes, just know that your pool is about to be so clean that it looks brand new. Highly recommend!

    Douglas Wallace ★★★★★

    Our HOA pool had been left in a disaster and disrepair. We had no pool vendor. We connected with Emily and Puddle pools. Emily and the teams tireless work, day after day, back and forth with County, and with Amazing communication and unquestionable customer service our pool was opened less than 4 months after starting. Emily has unmatched work ethic and customer service. Thank you to the entire Puddle Pools crew

    DT S ★★★★★

    After 8 years with the same company, they sold out to another company and my service went downhill. My technician was poor and unwilling to do what was needed. I tried Puddle Pools and Dave came out and was terrific! My pool looked better than the last 3 months! And he was technologically savvy on Hayward. I highly recommend Dave! Great guy!

    I’ve been using Puddle Pools for my pool cleaning in Charlotte and they’ve been fantastic! They don’t just do surface cleaning, they also handle deep system cleans, thoroughly backwash the filter, and balance the water every visit, which had been hard to find. My pool always stays clean and clear, and the detailed visit reports are a big plus. Dependable, high quality service. Highly recommend!

    Stirling Dimitrius ★★★★★

    Puddle Pools has been a welcomed breath of fresh air when it comes to servicing and cleaning my hot tub. They happily worked with me on frequency of cleanings for my rental property and what worked best for me. They’re always prompt and extremely communicative. I’m always aware of what time/day they’ll be coming which is important for me, and after each visit they provide a thorough breakdown of what they changed. I’m so grateful for their top tier service and highly recommend!

    Christopher Chastain ★★★★★

    I cannot speak more highly of The Puddle Pools team. Having inherited a hot tub through a home purchase I was skeptical about which company to use when it began acting up. From my initial call to any follow up needs that I’ve had Emily, Juan, and Dave in particular have been quick to respond, resolve any issue, and ensure I have clear understanding of what work was performed and how to avoid similar issues in the future.

    Mike McCallan ★★★★★

    From the first phone call to the technicians to completion. This company and their employees were phenomenal and took care of every issue including a leveling issue with our hottub. Highly recommmed!

    A MH ★★★★★

    Juan was very professional and my fountain works great. I wish he would have taken a moment to talk to me before he left. I would like to have known if the pump looked good and if there was anything else I needed to do to keep it clean.

    Jeff Smidt ★★★★★

    Had a great experience working with Puddle Pool Services!! Tim and Em are honest and provide a quality product. Would absolutely recommend.

    Charlotte pool service questions

    Do you service hot tubs and spas?

    Absolutely. We service both portable hot tubs and in-ground spas. We handle cleaning, chemical balancing, filter changes, and repairs.

    How quickly can you come out?

    For regular service, we can usually get you on our schedule within a few days. For repairs or green pools, we often have same-day or next-day availability.

    What if I'm not home?

    Most of our customers aren’t home during service. As long as we can access your backyard (gate code, key, whatever you use), we’re good. We’ll send you a service report after each visit.

    Do you offer one-time cleaning?

    Yep. Whether you’re hosting a party, getting the house ready to sell, or just need a one-time cleanup, we can help.

    What brands of equipment do you work on?

    We service all major brands: Pentair, Hayward, Jandy, Polaris, Dolphin, AquaCal, Raypak, pretty much everything.

    How much does pool service cost in Charlotte?

    Pricing depends on several factors, including pool size, service frequency, equipment, water condition, and the level of maintenance needed. A routine maintenance plan is typically more affordable than waiting until a pool develops bigger issues like algae, equipment failures, or water chemistry problems. Contact us today for a personalized quote!

    What is included in regular pool maintenance?

    Our pool maintenance services include skimming, brushing, vacuuming, water testing, chemical balancing, filter cleaning and equipment checks. We also customize services based on your pool’s needs to help keep your water clean and ready to enjoy.

    Why does my pool get algae blooms in July?

    July is one of the toughest months for pool owners in the Charlotte area. Hot temperatures, intense sunlight, frequent summer storms, and increased pool use create the perfect environment for algae growth. Our green pool recovery services are designed to handle algae blooms, cloudy water, and pools that need a fresh restart. We’ll diagnose the cause, treat the water properly, and help restore your pool to a clean, clear condition.

    Do you offer specialty packages for larger or more complex pool projects?

    Yes! We offer bespoke Estate Packages designed around the specific needs, preferences, and scope of each executive or luxury residential property. These packages are tailored to the individual project and are designed to provide a personalized level of service rather than a one-size-fits-all solution. We also offer a range of other package options that can be customized to suit your property, lifestyle, and budget. Contact our team to discuss the right package for you!
