What Is a Seasonal Contract?

Season-Long Pool Care with Predictable Visits, Clear Scope & Priority Support

A Seasonal Service Contract provides scheduled maintenance—weekly or bi-weekly—plus proactive checks and priority support from opening through closing. You get consistent clarity, safe balance, and fewer surprises with transparent billing and photo-verified service notes.

How It Works
  • Onboarding & schedule lock: route assignment, preferred day/time window, and text ETA updates.
  • Visit checklist: skim/vac as needed, brush, empty baskets, full water test & balance, and quick equipment visual.
  • Equipment oversight: confirm pump/VS schedules, salt-cell output/cleanliness, pressure trends, and leaks.
  • Filter cadence: backwash/clean recommendations and optional mid-season deep clean add-on.
  • Storm/vacation flexibility: weather shifts and holds handled with priority rescheduling.
What You Receive
  • Photo logs & readings after each visit with notes on dosing and any issues observed.
  • Simple billing: monthly auto-bill for the season or pay-in-full options; preferred rates for approved add-ons.
  • Priority options: bundle opening/closing dates, mid-season filter service, and spa coverage.
  • Renewal reminders and end-of-season status so you start next year ahead.

Seasonal Pool Service Contracts — Top 15 FAQs

Everything homeowners ask about coverage, visit frequency, chemicals, billing, weather policies, and how to customize a plan that fits your pool and budget.

What is a seasonal pool service contract?

A fixed-term plan (typically spring–fall) that bundles routine maintenance, priority scheduling, and preferred pricing into one predictable agreement. It sets visit frequency, what’s included, and how billing works—no surprises.

What’s included in a standard plan?

Scheduled visits (weekly or bi-weekly), skimming/vac as needed, brushing, basket cleaning, and basic water testing/balancing.

Mid-season equipment check (pump/filter/heater visuals) and service notes after each visit. Add-ons (open/close, chemicals) can be bundled.

How often are visits?

Most homeowners choose weekly service during peak season and bi-weekly during shoulder weeks. We’ll recommend cadence based on tree cover, bather load, and equipment performance.

Are chemicals included?

Plans can be “labor only” or “labor + chemicals.” Chemical-included plans cover routine sanitizers and balancers per visit.

Specialty treatments (e.g., heavy algae, stains) are quoted separately unless you select a premium package.

Do openings and closings come with the contract?

They can. Many clients bundle opening and closing for priority dates and package pricing. If you already have opening/closing handled, we’ll write maintenance-only terms.

How much does a seasonal contract cost?

Pricing depends on pool size/shape, visit frequency, debris load, and whether chemicals/opening/closing are included. We provide a clear, line-item quote before you commit.

How does billing work?

Choose monthly auto-bill for the season or pay in full up front for a discount (when available). Any approved extras (e.g., parts) are invoiced separately with your authorization.

Can I customize what’s included?

Yes—weekly vs bi-weekly, chemical-included vs labor-only, add vacuuming, filter cleans, salt checks, or mid-season tune-ups. We tailor the plan to your pool and expectations.

What happens if it rains or the weather is bad?

Safety first. We adjust the schedule during storms and resume ASAP. After severe weather, we prioritize debris removal and chemistry recovery to protect your water and equipment.

What if algae shows up between visits?

Let us know right away. We’ll guide a quick recovery or schedule a treatment. Some plans include limited no-charge touch-ups; others bill at a preferred contract rate.

Can I pause or skip visits during vacation?

Yes—give us advance notice to adjust the route. We’ll recommend a pre-vacation balance and post-vacation check so water stays clear.

What do you need from me on service day?

Gate access, pets secured, and water level mid-skimmer if possible.

If your system is locked or automated, let us know codes/schedules so we can verify operation.

Do you service salt systems and variable-speed pumps under contract?

Absolutely. We check cell output/cleanliness, confirm VS pump schedules, and note any parts that may need attention. Repairs are quoted separately at preferred rates.

How quickly can I start a seasonal plan?

Most start within a few days, depending on route capacity. Share photos and basic dimensions, pick weekly/bi-weekly, choose chemical option, and we’ll lock your first visit.

How do renewals and cancellations work?

Contracts outline term dates, renewal options, and notice periods (typically simple written notice before the next billing cycle). We’ll send renewal reminders so you keep priority scheduling.

Lock In Your Seasonal Service Contract

One plan, the whole season: priority opening, weekly/bi-weekly maintenance, mid-season equipment checks, algae prevention, and closing support—billed predictably with preferred pricing on repairs and supplies.
