Holiday Pool Care
Keeping the pool right while you're away, and ready to swim in the day you're back.
Going away doesn't have to mean coming home to a pool that needs a full recovery. Holiday pool care runs on a schedule that suits how long you're away, so the pool's looked after the whole time and ready to swim in the day you get back.
How It Works
Visits are scheduled around your travel dates, however long you're away for. Each visit is the same as a normal service visit, plus topping up the water level if needed. Before you're due home, the pool gets brought back to ready-to-swim condition for the day you land.
This covers the pool itself, not general property checks while you're away.
A Record of Every Visit
You get photos and a report after every visit, holiday care included, so you can see exactly what was done and how the pool looked the whole time you were away, not just take our word for it.
Why a Pool Can't Just Be Left
A pool left unchecked for a couple of weeks doesn't stay the same as the day you left. Chlorine keeps breaking down in the sun whether anyone's swimming or not, and once it drops low enough algae can take hold within days, especially in warm weather. Evaporation and rain also shift the water level and dilute the chemistry over time, so a pool that was perfectly balanced when you left can drift well out of range before you're back, particularly over a longer trip.
