About this service
Public pools are large, government-run swimming areas accessible to the general public for a small fee or pass. These are perfect for recreational swimming, youth swim lessons, or exercise. If you are looking for a place to practice laps or enjoy a weekend dip without the expense of owning a private pool, these are your best option. Check your city's parks and recreation website to see which locations are currently open and what the capacity limits are.
Remodeling in summer means you might have to pause your swimming plans for a few weeks, but the upside is that you get to address any issues discovered during the peak season. If a pump fails or a leak appears while you are using the pool, we can handle the repairs and upgrades immediately to keep your summer going.
