Pool services across Cape Town and the Western Cape Everything in and around your pool.

Cleaning, pumps, heating, lighting, decking and repairs anywhere in Cape Town and the Western Cape, sorted by John from the first call to the last swim of summer.

One call covers the whole pool.

Scroll through the jobs John does and the model follows along, from the water itself to the pump, the roof and the deck.

The whole pool, start to finish

Most pool problems cross over. A green pool can be a pump problem, and a leak can be the heating. Because John handles all of it, you make one call and deal with one person.

  • Water, pump, filter and plumbing
  • Heating, lights and the deck around it

Pool cleaning and water care

Brushing, vacuuming, skimming and a proper water test, with the chemicals balanced so the water stays clear and gentle on skin and eyes. Book regular visits or a once-off clean.

  • Regular or once-off visits
  • Water testing and balancing
  • Green pool turnarounds

Pool pumps and filtration

Pool pumps, sand filters and multiport valves supplied, fitted and repaired. If the pump hums, leaks or trips the power, John tracks down why and fixes it.

  • Sand filters and media changes
  • Valves and plumbing
Ask about pumps and filters

Pool heating

Solar heating installed, extended and repaired, so the pool is warm enough to use from early spring to late autumn. Ask about heat pumps if you want to swim in winter too.

  • Solar heating mats
  • Leak and pipe repairs on the roof
  • Heat pump options
