If a scheduled date is confirmed and the customer does not have items agreed upon ready, customer contact will be attempted. If contact is unsuccessful, then necessary items will be provided for a reasonable cost. A $125.00 service charge will apply if work cannot be competed and/or a return trip is needed. Keeping the water pumped down so it does not show through the mesh covers, and adding an algicide at 1st thaw will help keep the water clear before opening. Robotic pool cleaners can also be placed under the covers and run days prior to opening.
