We still welcome calls from all different areas of San Diego county. We work closely with other non-affiliated swimming pool services with established relationships with Blue Tide. Your swimming pool need is our obligation. Please feel free to call us anytime.

Green-to-Clean

It doesn't take long for a pool to turn green. Poor water circulation, old water, a damaged filter, or lack of sanitation can all be contributing factors to algae growth in a swimming pool. If untreated, a swimming pool can turn completely green. We can remedy this by two main ways:

  1. Pool Draining & Chlorine Bath

  2. Services, Chemical Treatments and Filter Cleans

Every situation is different but call us for a free estimate and we can find out whats best for you!

Inspections

For new home buyers, we offer a full swimming pool inspection service where we do an in-depth walk through of the pool and equipment and submit a written evaluation along with an expense breakdown. 

Filter Cleaning / Complete Chemistry Breakdown:

USUALLY REQUIRED WITH SERVICE 1-2 TIMES PER YEAR DEPENDING ON SIZE OF POOL, USAGE AND DEBRIS LOAD

Repairs

Troubleshooting

Among an array of different issues, we can trouble shoot low suction problems, high filter pressure issues, minor air leaks, chemistry difficulties and slow or non-existent cleaner movement. Our troubleshooting fee is automatically applied to the repair labor cost if the client decides to go forward with the repair.

Equipment Replacement & Upgrades

As with all things, equipment gets old and breaks down. If we deem the equipment unsalvageable, we can recommend replacement or upgrading existing equipment, such as pumps, to more energy efficient, variable flow pumps.
