Our services
Commercial pools require dependable service and consistent attention. We provide commercial pool services for properties throughout Chicago, including apartments, condominiums, hotels, fitness facilities, and other commercial properties. Our team can handle routine cleaning, water chemistry, equipment checks, maintenance, and seasonal services to help keep your pool operating smoothly.
Hot tubs are especially popular when Chicago temperatures start dropping. If you’re dealing with cloudy water, inconsistent temperatures, or equipment problems, our technicians can help. Routine hot tub maintenance keeps your water properly balanced, your equipment working efficiently, and your spa ready whenever you want to use it.
If your pool water level is dropping faster than expected, there may be more going on than normal evaporation. We use professional leak detection methods to help locate problems in the pool shell, plumbing, or equipment. Finding leaks early can help prevent wasted water and more extensive damage.
Between work, family, and everything else on your schedule, keeping up with pool cleaning can quickly become a chore. Our weekly pool cleaning service keeps your Chicago pool clean and ready to enjoy. We handle brushing, vacuuming, chemical balancing, filter checks, and equipment inspections so you can spend more time swimming and less time maintaining your pool.
Chicago winters bring freezing temperatures that can be tough on pool plumbing and equipment. Our pool closing service properly prepares your pool for winter, including shutting down and winterizing key components. Proper closing helps protect your investment and makes reopening your pool easier when warmer weather returns.
What the inspection covers An inspection looks at four things.
Consistent pool maintenance is one of the best ways to protect your water quality and equipment. We monitor water chemistry, circulation, filtration, and overall system performance to catch small issues before they become expensive problems. Whether you need routine maintenance throughout the swimming season or help getting a neglected pool back on track, our team can help.
After a long Chicago winter, getting your pool ready for swimming takes more than simply removing the cover. Our pool opening service helps prepare your system for the warmer months by getting equipment running, checking essential components, and preparing the water for the season ahead.
Pump making strange noises? Filter struggling to keep your water clear? Heater refusing to warm up? Our technicians service pool pumps, filters, heaters, automation systems, and saltwater systems. We diagnose the problem, explain your options, and work to get your equipment running properly again.
A service plan built around your backyard Home pool service keeps the water balanced, clears debris, cleans the filters and scrubs away residue and stains, while looking after the liner, covers and equipment as part of the routine.
Fountains and features we look after Water feature maintenance covers fountains and features indoors and out, from residential pieces to large commercial fountains in places like hotels and shopping malls, as well as waterfalls, spillways and other features built into a pool.
A worn, faded, or damaged pool liner can affect both the appearance and performance of your pool. We provide professional pool liner installation for Chicago homeowners, helping ensure the new liner fits correctly and provides a clean, refreshed finish. Replacing an aging liner can also help address water loss caused by tears or deterioration.
A properly fitted pool safety cover provides additional protection when your pool isn’t being used, especially during Chicago’s long off-season. We install durable pool safety covers designed to securely cover the pool while helping keep out leaves, debris, snow, and other unwanted material.
It happens. Equipment can fail, maintenance can get delayed, and water conditions can change quickly during hot summer weather. If your pool has turned green or cloudy, we can help restore it. Our green pool recovery service addresses water chemistry, filtration, algae, and debris to get your pool clear, clean, and ready for swimming again.
After every visit
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.
There are plenty of pool companies in Chicago. Here’s why homeowners choose Puddle Pools:
Chicago-area water can contain minerals that contribute to scale along tile, cloudy water, and buildup on pool equipment. We carefully balance your water chemistry and address mineral deposits before they become a bigger problem.
Spring in Chicago can bring plenty of pollen, leaves, seeds, and other debris into your pool. We keep up with skimming, clean filters and baskets, and maintain proper circulation so your water stays clear as the swimming season gets underway.
Hot, sunny Chicago summer days can cause noticeable water loss, especially during stretches of warm, dry weather. We can help determine whether a dropping water level is normal evaporation or a sign of a leak that needs attention.
When temperatures climb, your pool equipment works harder to keep water circulating and properly filtered. Pumps, filters, heaters, and other components can experience additional strain during periods of heavy use. We inspect your equipment during service visits to catch potential problems before they lead to unexpected breakdowns.
Chicago winters are one of the biggest challenges for local pool owners. Freezing temperatures can damage plumbing, pumps, filters, and other components if a pool isn’t properly winterized. Our pool closing services help protect your system through the winter and make reopening easier when spring returns.
Heading out of town during the summer? Without regular circulation, cleaning, and properly balanced chemicals, algae can take over surprisingly quickly. Our ongoing pool maintenance helps keep your water clean and balanced while you’re away so you don’t come home to a green pool.
