I’m Derek, the owner and sole operator of a small, customer-focused pool and spa service. For the past 6 years, I’ve specialized in swimming pool and hot tub cleaning, maintenance, and inspections.
My promise is simple: I do what I say I’m going to do. You can count on me to show up every week—rain or shine—to keep your water clean, safe, and ready to enjoy.
As an honest, friendly professional, I take pride in reliable service, clear communication, and attention to detail. If you’re looking for consistent, one-on-one care for your pool or spa, I’d be happy to help. Reach out to schedule your service or inspection.

Derek visited on the first day to look at our pool and we were really impressed how friendly and helpful he is. We finally found a pool service that will take good care of our pool.

Derek responded to my request for spa service very quickly and was out in less than 24 hours to look over and chemically treat my recently acquired hottub. I am so excited to now have it running & ready to use. Derek is very knowledgeable and helpful. I’m happy to now entrust him with its weekly care and maintenance so I can just sit back and enjoy it. Thanks Derek!

Derek showed up for our initial appointment as scheduled to look at our pool. He was knowledgeable and professional and we hired him to clean our pool on a weekly basis for a competitive price.

If I was given the option to select all highlights when writing this review, I definitely would!!
Derek has been cleaning our pool on a weekly basis for almost 2 months now. He continues to show up every Thursday at exactly 10:00am as promised from the very beginning. We do not have a vacuum and tend to get quite a few leaves and dirt in the bottom every few days. He does an excellent job at removing EVERYTHING from top to bottom, side to side, and our waterline tile always looks wonderful after his visit. My husband and I are beyond satisfied with the great service Derek continues to provide for our pool!

Quick response to my inquiry, was able to fit me in the very next day and was super punctual. He tested and treated our pool on the spot and extremely knowledgeable (explained everything as he went). Hired on the spot! Great guy!
