What do I do if my commercial pool starts leaking?

What equipment do I need to maintain my commercial pool?

How do I know when it’s better to repair or replace my commercial pool?

In assessing the condition of your current pool, it’s best to have a professional evaluate any structural damage, the functionality of the plumbing and how many repairs are needed. It’s also important to factor in the age of the pool with the assessment. Often, if both the repair costs and the age of the pool are high, it may be more cost effective to replace rather than repair. The decision to rebuild depends on your budget and the amount of work required.

How often should I replace my pool deck?

For a lot of businesses, the appearance of their pool deck is just as important as the commercial pool itself. Over time, you may begin to notice cracks forming in the cement or that the stones and the tiles are losing their color. Combine that with exposure to the weather, your pool deck will show signs of deterioration . Luckily we offer deck replacement services that will ensure your pool deck is always looking it’s finest.

What’s the average lifespan of a commercial pool?

What is the upkeep required to maintain a commercial pool?

Regular pool maintenance is all about ensuring the safety of your pool’s guests. Between maintaining ideal chlorine levels to performing safety checks, it’s best to leave this up to the professionals. We can customize a maintenance schedule for your business or commercial property to fit your needs.

What are the necessary permits and documents needed to install a commercial pool?

We have to submit plans to IDPH (Illinois Department of Public Health). They govern all commercial pools in the state of Illinois. The process is not fast, plan at least 4 to 6 months just for the permit process with the state. After the state approves it, most municipalities approve as is. Some cities, like Chicago, do have their own review process. There are several documents to submit to local municipalities and approvals businesses need in order to begin construction on a commercial pool. However, we take care of acquiring all the appropriate permits and manage the inspections to ensure your project progresses smoothly. The Virginia Graeme Baker Pool & Spa Safety Act prioritizes the protection and safety of swimmers in commercial pools and requires commercial pools and spas to maintain specific types of drain covers and other features. We build all of our pools to be VGB and ADA compliant.
