The Full Pool Closing is our standard winterization. Add a pre-close cleaning visit if your pool needs attention before it goes under the cover.
Full Pool Closing
The complete winterization: water balanced, winterizing chemicals added, lines blown out, and equipment put to bed.
- Final surface skimming and light debris removal
- Water testing and balancing
- Winterizing chemicals added (billed separately)
- Lowering the water to the appropriate level
- Blowing out and plugging pool lines
- Winterizing the pump, filter, heater, and connected equipment
- Removing ladders and standard pool accessories

Chemicals are not included and are billed separately at standard rates. Vacuuming is not included; add the pre-close cleaning visit if the pool needs it. Installing a hard cover or a tarp with water weights, and pulling in-ground pool cleaners, are priced add-ons.
Closing + Pre-Close Cleaning
A dedicated vacuum and cleaning visit before closing day, so your pool winters clean and opens easier in spring.
- One scheduled cleaning visit before the closing date
- Vacuuming when conditions allow
- Additional skimming and brushing

Vacuuming depends on adequate water clarity, water level, and functioning equipment.

How much does a pool closing cost?
There are two packages, and the price is the same for in-ground and above-ground pools. The Full Pool Closing starts at $575 and covers the complete winterization: water balanced, lines blown out and plugged, equipment winterized, and a final check. The Closing + Pre-Close Cleaning adds a scheduled cleaning visit before your closing date for $150 more ($725). An attached spa adds $75, cover installation is $75, pulling an in-ground pool cleaner is $100 each, and a filter cleaning is $75. Chemicals are billed separately at standard rates. Homes more than 40 minutes from our Clinton base are priced by drive time, shown when you book.
Are chemicals included in the closing?
No. The closing price covers the winterization work. Balancing and winterizing chemicals we add are billed separately at standard rates and itemized on your report.
When should I close my pool?
In our area, most pools should be closed between mid-September and mid-October. Closing before the first hard freeze protects your plumbing and equipment from damage.
What happens if I do not winterize my pool?
Skipping winterization can lead to frozen and cracked plumbing lines, damaged pumps and filters, and severe algae buildup. Repairs from freeze damage can cost thousands of dollars.
Do you install the winter cover?
Cover installation is a $75 add-on on either package: we anchor and tension your existing hard cover, or set your tarp and fill the water weights. If you need a new cover, let us know and we can source one for you.
How long does a pool closing take?
A standard closing takes about 2 to 3 hours. This includes draining equipment, blowing lines, and adding winterizing chemicals, plus installing the cover if you add it.
