Pool & Hot Tub Repairs in Ottawa, ON
Swimming pools add value, curb appeal and enjoyment to homes and businesses all across the Ottawa area. As great as an accessible swim space is, pools and hot tubs do not come along without the need for regular maintenance and eventually repairs. Damage and issues with pool systems might start small but they will grow and spread over time, having a ripple effect throughout water systems. When you want the best results for your home or commercial property, call a Puddle Pro for your Ottawa pool repair and renovation services.
The Key to Successful Pool Repairs
No two pool systems are exactly the same. Even pools of the same make and model will differ during regular maintenance. In this case, their needs will change based on climate, traffic and surrounding area. In order to get the best results for repairs, pool experts provide inspections of pool liners, equipment and surrounding areas. The most common issues in both inground pools and above ground models throughout Ottawa are damaged pool equipment and torn liners.
Backyard pool systems, as well as indoor models, are at risk of torn, faded or wrinkled liners. Leaving small tears in liners will eventually cause them to become larger, allowing water to seep down around foundations and causing large-scale damage.
Harsh winters take a toll on the plastic components of swimming pools, leading to cracking or becoming brittle. If a pool pump, filter or plumbing lines begin to break down, it is important to have them repaired as quickly as possible to avoid damage. Highly trained and experienced technicians combined with timely service are the best way to get great results for your swimming pool repair.
Getting the Best Results For Your Pool Renovations
Pools are a great way to add curb appeal but a dated design or damaged structure can also drag values down. If you are hoping to update the look and function of an existing pool, you do not have to call a pool builder, you can call Puddle instead! By working closely with pool owners, Puddle technicians can help to organize new liners, features, and even help to switch from chlorine to salt. When you want to update the look of your pool area, just call a highly trained and experienced technician from Puddle Pool Services for expert insight.
Ottawa Pool & Hot Tub Repairs: Frequently Asked Questions
What does an Ottawa winter do to a pool?
Ottawa's winters are long: Environment and Climate Change Canada normals show about 150 days a year with a minimum at or below 0°C, about 17 nights below minus 20°C and snow on the ground about 115 days a year. Water left in skimmers, return lines and plumbing can freeze and expand, damaging them and the liner. That is why a correct closing that clears and protects those parts matters so much here.
What are the pool fence rules in Ottawa?
Ottawa's Pool Enclosure By-law 2013-39 covers outdoor pools and hot tubs that can hold 600 mm or more of water. Enclosures must be at least 1.5 m high, stop a 100 mm sphere passing through or under and sit at least 1 m from the inside pool wall, with gates that self close, self latch at least 1.35 m up and lock. Gates must stay closed and locked except when the pool area is in use, for every enclosure regardless of age, so check with the City of Ottawa for your property.
Which Ottawa neighborhoods do you cover?
We look after pools across Ottawa, including Kanata Lakes, Beaverbrook, Morgan’s Grant, Bridlewood, Katimavik-Hazeldean and Half Moon Bay. The full list of areas is on our Ottawa page. If you do not see yours, get in touch and we will confirm.
Do you repair hot tubs too?
Yes. Hot tubs share many of the same components as pools, including pumps, heaters and plumbing, and they are diagnosed and repaired the same way.
What happens if a leak is part of the problem?
Leak detection testing finds where the water is escaping, in the structure or the plumbing, so the repair targets the right place instead of guessing.
We had Zach and his team install our fiberglass pool this summer and they were fantastic. Very informative during the planning, gave great advice when making decisions and executed on the install meticulously. Having a hole dug in your backyard with obstacles like a rear yard garage and limited space to manoeuvre could be unnerving but they excavated with precision and confidence. All equipment was connected in a timely fashion so we weren’t left staring at a pool we couldn’t use. All to say I would highly recommend puddle pools without hesitation.
Pretty easy to write a 5 star review when everything goes smoothly and there are no issues. That was not our experience with Puddle Pools because we had two issues that did not go according to plan. Both issues were resolved promptly and at our time frame, which when you are dealing with a pool company in June and July, that is great service. Their staff were very hard working and knowledgeable and are the reason for this review. Thanks again. Mike and Judy
Puddle Pools and our landscaper turned our backyard into a resort. We spent a few months interviewing pool builders before choosing Puddle Pools, and working with them to get to the finish line, it is clear we made the best choice. The very first consultation with Zach, I learnt lot more than all previous companies that I met. Clear explanation for the various options. Then we had an opportunity to see similar fiberglass pools that we were thinking of and the various colors. We started very late last fall, had the pool, landscaping, hot tub, and fence all done in a span of 6 weeks between end of September and early November before the first snowfall. The quality of work and communication has been outstanding. Zach and his team has been available through this summer teaching me pool maintenance, and visiting us several times to even show maintenance. Excellent work overall, and very fairly priced (the lowest) in comparison with others. Highest possible recommendation.
The crew from Puddle did top notch work again for us. They do open close for us and last year caught something wrong that was concerning from my last company. Yesterday they stayed late to install the pool liner before the holiday. Top notch service and great pricing. Would highly recommend.
We hired Puddle Pool Services to clean and service our hot tub and they did an amazing job. We recently purchased a home in Orleans that came with a hot tub and we wanted to have it drained, cleaned, refilled, and treated. We don't know anything about hot tubs and Anthony (the service rep) was extremely friendly, approachable and knowledgeable. He performed the job according to our requirements and he took the extra time to answer all of our questions. I highly recommend Puddle Pool Services and would hire them again without hesitation.
Helpful advice, prompt service by admin staff and work crew and excellent installation of pool liner. Good product at a reasonable price. Looks like a new pool again! Highly recommended.

Both Zach and Richard are always patient with us since we are first time pool owners. Doesn't matter if its an email or a phone call, they take the time to talk to us, give us their insights and offer assistance. Just this morning, i had an issue with my heating unit and Zach went above to get me to the right direction.
I really enjoyed working with Puddle Pool Services. Last year, they completely saved my pool during closing after I had already tried three different companies and spent thousands of dollars trying to fix issues. My pool was a disaster, and they were the only ones who truly helped. Because of that experience, there was no question that I would have them install my new heater. They also replaced my liner, cleaned the pool, and changed the sand. The team was amazing from start to finish — professional, efficient, and the entire job was completed in just one day. What stood out most was their communication and customer service. They kept me updated throughout the process and even checked in about whether the ice had melted. I never once felt left on my own. When I went to turn on the heater, unfortunately the HVAC company had not connected the electrical properly. I reached out on a Saturday, and within less than 30 minutes they responded. The very next day, they sent their electrician and fixed the issue immediately. The heater works incredibly well — my pool went from 60 degrees to 80 degrees in about six hours. I couldn’t be happier with the service and highly recommend Puddle Pool Services to anyone looking for reliable, knowledgeable, and responsive pool professionals.
We hired Puddles for a complex pool reno (including stamped concrete work). A number of unexpected problems were identified during the job but Puddles saw every single one to resolution and to our complete satisfaction. All of the staff were great to deal with, the owners (Zach and Jason) are very understanding and accommodating. They focus on customer satisfaction and we would highly recommend them. - Colin and Karine Glenn
On opening our pool, we discovered that the heater had died, Zach promptly provided us with a reasonable quote and kept us in the loop during the entire process. Within 3 days the new heater was up and running. A hassle-free experience!
I had a bad experience with Puddle Pools because of an error they made, and I posted about it. Upon seeing my review, the owner of the company looked into what had happened, reached out to me and was apologetic and accountable, and rectified the situation. It shows that he cares about his customers and how he runs his business. I won't hesitate to give them another chance moving forward.
Honestly I was surprised. They have fair prices, better than most, However, what I liked the most was that they weren’t trying to charge me for unnecessary costs (ie. flipping the Hot Tub). Also Dan was good good at getting right in and fixing the problem without wasting time. Which is a mother thing I appreciated especially for costs.
Reached out to puddle pool services for a pool cover. We had reached out to 5+ companies to come give us a quote but refused due to it being a kidney shaped pool, everyone wanted us to measure it, which given the same is extremely difficult. After we reached out to puddle pool services, James quickly reached out to us to schedule an appointment. Within a day Danny came out and quoted us. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. Within a week it was installed and we couldn’t be happier! Highly recommend to anyone needing pool service.!!!
I was in the market to have a safety net installation. I requested quotation from big shops in Ottawa. Then I found puddle Pool Services online and gave them a chance. The quotations from the big shops were so sloppy and careless. A paragraph and then a huge price tag. Puddle Pool Services had the most professional quotation and most competitive price (significantly). At first I was a bit hesitant, I asked about services and material through email, and James replied with the most courteous and patient manner. They came on the date that they promised to measure, on the date that they promised to install. They have done very professional job. I certanly recommend them.
We are absolutely thrilled with the work done by Puddle Pools. They recently installed a new liner for our pool, and the entire process was seamless from start to finish. They were incredibly professional, highly skilled, and clearly took great pride in their work. Danny was our installer and he is a work horse, never stopped until the work was complete. Zach reached out to us with any questions we had and made sure we were satisfied and well informed. What impressed us most was their commitment to being trustworthy and reliable. They showed up on time, kept us informed about every step of the process. They honour what they promise, and that in itself is amazing. A big shout out to Kenny at Pool Side Water Services who supplied the water for our pool after the liner install. We were so lucky to have hired both Companies who work together as a great team. A big thanks to both Zach and Kenny, we appreciate your commitment to to a job done well. Ken & Cathy
New pool liner installed June 2024 I highly recommend Zach from Puddle Pools for all your pool needs! Rob installed the liner beautifully in one morning. Zach is so quick to respond with quotes, questions and updated on progress of the job. Rob is very knowledgeable and always answered any questions. Prices were extremely fair! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
