Cleaning

Pool cleaning that keeps water swim-ready

Weekly Pool Cleaning

Our most popular service: a consistent weekly visit that keeps your pool swim-ready without you lifting a finger. Each visit includes skimming debris, brushing walls and tile, vacuuming the pool floor, emptying skimmer and pump baskets, and checking equipment operation. Regular pool cleaning in San Diego is essential given our year-round pollen, leaf litter, and heavy summer rain — skipping visits lets algae and scale build up fast. Every Tradewinds route runs on the same day, with the same trained technician, every week.

Chemical Balancing & Water Testing

Correct water chemistry protects swimmers, pool surfaces, and equipment alike. We test pH, free chlorine, total alkalinity, calcium hardness, and stabilizer levels on every visit, then adjust with precisely measured dosing — never guesswork. California's heat and rain swing chemistry faster than most climates, so consistent testing matters. Balanced water means fewer red eyes, no bleached swimsuits, and a pool that stays inviting instead of cloudy. We log every reading so you always know your pool's history.

Green Pool Recovery & Algae Removal

Came back from vacation to a swamp instead of a pool? We specialize in green pool recovery across the San Diego area. Our process shocks and rebalances the water, brushes and vacuums dead algae, backwashes the filter repeatedly, and re-tests until the water is swim-clear — typically within two to four days depending on severity. We'll also identify what caused the outbreak, whether it's a circulation issue, low stabilizer, or a missed maintenance window, so it doesn't happen again.

Pool Inspections

Buying a home with a pool, refinancing, or just want peace of mind? Our inspections cover structural condition, equipment function, plumbing, electrical bonding, safety barriers, and code compliance, with a detailed written report the same day. Real estate agents and San Diego homeowners rely on our inspections to catch costly issues — cracked shells, failing pumps, or unsafe wiring — before they become emergencies. We also offer pre-listing inspections to help sellers price and repair with confidence.

Salt Chlorine System Service & Installation

Salt chlorine generators produce softer, gentler water without the sting of traditional chlorine and cut down on chemical handling. We install new salt systems, service and clean existing salt cells, calibrate output settings, and troubleshoot error codes on all major brands. Salt systems still need regular attention — cell buildup and board issues are common in California's mineral-heavy water — and our maintenance plans keep systems running efficiently for years instead of failing early.

Seasonal & Vacation-Home Care

Even in Southern California's mild winters, seasonal service extends equipment life and keeps water quality on track through visitor season, snowbird arrivals, and summer heat waves. We handle spring start-ups after a slow period, deep cleanings before hosting season, and off-season checkups for part-time residents and vacation rental owners. Snowbird and vacation-home clients especially rely on our seasonal visits to arrive to a ready-to-swim pool instead of a green surprise.

Equipment repairs — quoted up front, fixed fast

Pump, Filter, Heater & Plumbing Repair

Loud pumps, weak filtration, or a heater that won't fire up usually signal a fixable problem, not a full replacement. Our technicians diagnose and repair pumps, cartridge and DE filters, gas and heat-pump heaters, plumbing, and automation systems from every major manufacturer. We carry common parts on the truck for faster same-visit repairs, and you approve a fixed written quote before any work starts. Catching equipment problems early saves San Diego pool owners real money on energy bills and replacements.

Emergency repair? We answer 24/7.

Failed pumps and leaks don't keep business hours — call any time and a real technician picks up.
