Top Pool Maintenance related questions

The cost of swimming pool maintenance can range from £45 to £85 per hour. For pool cleaning costs, the rates range from £75 to £300. Set a budget and provide the details of your task to find a pro in swimming pool maintenance in your area. 

A clear pool doesn't necessarily mean that it's clean and fit for swimming. A pool's filtration system needs weekly maintenance to remove any dirt and debris build up. Water must also be disinfected regularly using the right pool chemicals to keep algae, bacteria, and fungi at bay. Ultimately, weekly pool maintenance and service can keep your swimming pool clean and safe for swimming and save you any further damage costs in the long run.

Booking your pool service a few days to a week ahead is ideal. Doing so gives you enough time to prepare your swimming pool, especially if you're planning to hold a party or an intimate gathering in your backyard. However, if you need it serviced right away, that's no problem as well. Airtasker can help you find pool maintenance experts in your area who can get straight to work, so you can soon get the most out of your swimming pool.

The green discolouration is due to algae growth in your pool. Algae can quickly grow and spread in warm weather conditions, and a mild case can rapidly turn into an infestation overnight. Algae growth comes down to the imbalance or lack of chlorine in your pool water, as algae can raise pH levels in swimming pools. That's why it's essential to get regular pool care and maintenance to avoid an algae outbreak. When hiring experts on maintaining swimming pools, you can request water testing and pool inspection to make sure your swimming pool is not at risk of algae infestation. 

Look for signs of leakage such as stain level lines, closed valves, damaged gaskets, and more. You can also conduct a simple bucket test, which involves filling a bucket with the same water level as your pool and placing it in the second pool step. After two to three days, check if the water level has dropped more than the bucket. If it has, that means there's a leak that needs immediate repair as soon as possible.

This depends on the specific chemical treatment you had for your swimming pool. In general, it's best to wait at least 20 minutes to an hour if you've added chemicals to maintain water balance. For chloride and chlorine, however, it's recommended to swim only after 24 hours or when your chlorine level has reached five ppm.

Showering helps remove sweat, body lotions, cosmetics, and traces of urine and faecal matter on the body. These substances can contaminate the pool and cause an imbalance in the water's pH levels. When this happens, your pool needs to work harder and requires harsher chemical treatments. Showering before swimming helps ease the burden on your pool, prevents illnesses, and keeps swimming healthy for everyone.

What do swimming pool maintenance and repair services include?

Swimming pool maintenance and repair services encompass everything that's required to keep your pool in great shape. Besides balancing your pool water and adding the right chemical treatments, pool care and maintenance can also include checking for damage or leaks and cleaning your pool filters, sand filter, and pumps. Airtasker makes it easy to find a swimming pool maintenance service nearby to help you with whatever you need - from pool repair to pool cleaning. Here are some of the services included: 

Pool repair

When facing pool repair, timely action is crucial to prevent further damage. From leak detection to pump replacement, skilled Taskers assess and address issues efficiently. With meticulous attention to detail, they restore functionality, ensuring a safe and enjoyable aquatic experience. Trustworthy pool repair services offer peace of mind, preserving your oasis for years to come.

Domestic pool maintenance

Domestic swimming pool maintenance starts with a visual inspection to check if your pool equipment is in good running condition. Pool specialists carefully examine your pumps, motors, and pool filter systems (ex. cartridge filter or sand filter) for signs of damage, and address or repair any leaks and structural cracks. They can also check the pool liner for signs of algae or mould. 

Afterward, your pool maintenance expert maintains your pool water's pH balance by doing water testing and adding the correct levels of chlorine, alkaline, and other chemicals. If you need more thorough pool cleaning, help in adding pool chemicals, or draining the pool water for a good scrub of the surfaces, you can specify that, too, with Taskers. This way, you can fully enjoy your pool without having to worry about its safety or cleanliness. 

Once your pool is ready for use, how about getting lessons from a swim instructor? Whether you're an adult needing to polish your swimming skills or a parent looking out for your child, there are plenty of experienced instructors you can hire for safe and professional swimming lessons.

Above-ground pool maintenance

Above-ground pools are becoming increasingly popular, and it's not hard to see why. They not only cost less, but they're also faster to install and easier to maintain. If you need someone to take care of your above-ground pool for you, Airtasker is here to help connect you with specialists on above-ground pool maintenance in your area. They can offer pool vacuum services, brush your walls and tiles, clean your pumps and filters, and balance your pool water. Some specialists can also offer hot tub maintenance or hot tub cleaning services.

If you use your pool often, you can book weekly above-ground pool maintenance, so you can keep your pool clean and well-maintained. Why not take a step further and enhance your backyard? Our platform also lets you find experts who can install pergolas to add to your home's aesthetic appeal. You can even take it up a notch and find contractors who can put up a fence and make your backyard the perfect place to kick back after a long day.

Seasonal pool maintenance

Whether you need to prep your pool for the summer or have it winterised for the cold months, pool service specialists on Airtasker can get it done. A pre-season check can include removing your pool cover, clearing away debris in your pool filter or any filtration system, adding the required chemicals to maintain proper water balance, and reconnecting all pool equipment.

Winter decommissions, on the other hand, involve draining your pool, protecting your pipes, balancing the water chemistry, and finally fitting winter pool covers to protect it from harsh temperatures. With seasonal pool care and maintenance, your pool is kept in excellent condition all year round. 

If you're opening up your pool for the summer season, maybe you also need a handyman to assemble your outdoor furniture? Or how about someone to put together your new BBQ for that perfect summer grill? Whatever you need to get done, Airtasker can lend a hand!
