Pool cleaning

Post by Ann-Marie »

Hi all. Could you advise if you keep up with 2 visits a week for pool cleaning in the winter as well as the summer? Would one visit a week suffice through the winter months?
Thank you 😊

What Roy said! And one visit all year round is adequate.

UNLESS..... you rent, then 2-3 visits a week are required in the summer, especially if its a family with kids

once per week in winter is fine.

As a matter of interest what is a ballpark figure for pool-cleaning per week/month/year - private villa not let and only used intermittently.

We pay our guy 70 per month (including chemicals etc.), but he also does odd jobs and fixes for no extra charge.

Many thanks for replying Rampage & Patti - more or less similar fee.

I do not use the pool in the Winter and so I cancel pool cleaning between 1st November and 31st March - but my guy charges me E85 for a twice weekly service for the rest of the year.
