What We Do
Six service lines, all of them water. Pick where your problem lives.
A Colorado Pool Is Not Like a Pool Anywhere Else
The swim season here is short and the off season is brutal, which changes everything about how a pool has to be maintained and repaired. Four things work against your pool constantly, and knowing them is most of what separates a competent Front Range pool company from one that learned the trade somewhere warmer.
- Freeze and thaw. Every winter works on skimmers, plumbing, coping, spillways, and tile. It is the single largest cause of pool damage in this market and the reason winterization is not optional.
- Hard water. Front Range municipal water carries high mineral content, which is why calcium scale forms at your waterline, on your tile, and on your deck.
- High altitude sun and dry air. Intense ultraviolet burns off chlorine faster than at sea level, and low humidity drives evaporation that both wastes water and concentrates minerals in what remains.
- Expansive clay soil. It swells and shrinks with moisture, and it is what cracks decks, shifts equipment pads, stresses shells, and breaks buried plumbing.
The lower air pressure at altitude also has a practical effect most owners never hear about: carbon dioxide leaves the water faster, which drives pH up on its own. A pool here fights rising pH continuously, and rising pH combined with hard water is exactly the recipe for scale.
Pool Repair, Including the Emergencies
Pumps fail, heaters quit, filters split, and plumbing breaks, and in Colorado a good share of it happens because something froze. When a pool is losing water fast or a line has broken, waiting makes it worse and more expensive, particularly with clay soil taking on water under your deck.
Maintenance That Accounts for Where You Live
Balanced water in Denver is not the same target as balanced water in Phoenix or Atlanta. Evaporation concentrates calcium, altitude pushes pH up, and intense sun eats sanitizer. Maintenance here means managing all three, not just adding chlorine, and doing it correctly is what keeps plaster and equipment from being consumed years early.
Pressure Washing, From Pool Decks to Dumpster Pads
Hot water, cold water, soft washing, and acid washing for pool shells, decks, covers, homes, and commercial property. Different surfaces need different pressure and different chemistry, and knowing which is which is the whole job.
Ponds, Waterfalls, and Water Features
A pond is a liner, a pump, plumbing, filtration, and rockwork, which is a pool with different rules. We repair and renovate ponds, streams, and waterfalls, including the water loss that everyone assumes is a punctured liner and usually is not.
One Contractor for the Whole System
The practical argument for using us is that a pool problem rarely stays in one category. A leak becomes a plumbing repair, then a deck repair, then a plaster patch. A resurface needs the shell washed first and the tile and coping addressed at the same time. When one licensed and insured contractor owns all of it, nobody gets to blame the other guy and you are not project managing three vendors who each want to start after the other one finishes.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What areas do you serve?
We work out of Fort Lupton and cover the Denver metro and northern Front Range, including Denver, Brighton, Thornton, Broomfield, Longmont, Englewood, Castle Rock, Evergreen, and Fort Collins.
-
Do you service both pools and spas?
Yes, along with ponds, waterfalls, and water features. We repair, maintain, resurface, and rebuild all of them, and we handle leak detection and pressure washing on the same systems.
-
Do you work on commercial and HOA pools?
Yes. We service apartment and HOA amenity pools, hotel pools, health clubs, and municipal facilities, including the documentation and safety compliance items those properties are held to.
-
Why does my pool need different care in Colorado?
Four reasons: freeze and thaw damage over a long off season, hard water that leaves calcium scale, intense high altitude sun that burns off chlorine faster, and expansive clay soil that shifts decks and breaks buried plumbing. Lower air pressure at altitude also drives pH up on its own, so a Denver pool fights rising pH continuously.
-
When should I open and close my pool in Denver?
Most Front Range pools open in May and close in September or early October, though the right timing depends on your equipment, whether you have a heater, and how you use the pool. Closing properly before the first hard freeze matters more here than the exact date, because freeze damage is the most expensive avoidable pool problem in this market.
-
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. We are a licensed and insured pool and spa contractor.
-
Do you offer emergency service?
Yes. Call us for pool and spa emergencies, including broken plumbing, rapid water loss, and freeze damage, where waiting turns a repair into a much larger one.
-
Can one company handle the whole project?
That is the point of how we are set up. A leak turns into plumbing, deck, and plaster work, and a resurface involves washing, tile, and coping. Having one licensed contractor own all of it removes the coordination problem and the finger pointing.
