Pool Cleaning
For pool owners, the thought of diving into dirty water is enough to make them want to take a break from brushing their pools. The accumulation and build-up on dirt algae can have an impact not only for your balance but also on systems in place like filters that keep everything running smoothly. I
Instead of stressing over all that hard and dirty work, let ABC’s meticulous and experienced pool cleaners take this routine task off your to-do list. While we’re at it, they’ll also check chemical levels as needed, so you don’t have to worry. That way, you won’t have to spend time stressing about your pH, cyanuric acid, chlorine, alkalinity and calcium hardness levels.
The ABC staff is often the first line of defense against bigger problems, since they can spot small problems before they turn into a big headache.
Pool Repair
A minor pool repair can get complicated very quickly, especially if you aren’t familiar with the inner workings of all the components. Even if you do have a strong understanding of the ins and outs of pool maintenance, many owners simply don’t have the time to troubleshoot and fix most issues that come up. Losing an entire weekend to a repair would leave anyone frustrated, especially if an experienced technician can quickly take care of the problem and get things done right the first time.
It makes no difference if it’s a malfunctioning pump, a broken filter or even if you have no idea what’s going on, an ABC specialist can get everything working again, regardless of the brand or type of equipment you have. Since we bring some parts with us to every service call, in many cases we can replace components in the same visit.
Pool Remodeling
As a pool owner, you’re probably well aware that a pool itself is a huge investment and the way it looks or functions plays a big role in how much you get out of it. Maybe you moved into a home with an existing pool that doesn’t quite match your family’s tastes, or your pool may have become outdated over time. Or maybe you just really want to add in some innovative features to improve the overall swimming experience. Whatever your motivation for remodeling your pool may be, it’s important to carefully select a company that has the experience to bring your vision into reality. ABC’s experts can do just that, while advising you on practical concerns, including how to get the biggest return on your investment.
Pool Replastering
The high levels of exposure to heat, sunlight and other elements found in The Woodlands can definitely take a toll on the surface of your pool. Over time, the plaster may degrade and become rough to touch. In addition, your plaster can even become stained in such a way that traditional cleaning methods just won’t do enough to wipe away the built-up sediment.
The good news is that your pool surface can be transformed in both texture and color when you have it replastered. ABC’s pros can give you honest advice on whether replastering makes sense for your pool and help you review your options. If you do decide to replaster your pool, our specialists have all the tools and training to take on this project so you can maximize your enjoyment of your backyard oasis.
A homeowner’s to-do list is a mile long, and it’s easy for pool issues to sink—quite literally—to the bottom of your list. With ABC’s help, you can focus on relaxing poolside rather than dealing with the time and hassle that comes with maintaining the appearance of your pool.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do ABC's pool schedules look like?
Since every pool is different, we take pride in creating the perfect schedule for your needs. Some pools take a little more care than others. ABC’s pros will take into consideration the size of your pool and the season, which can dictate the volume of materials that makes its way into your water.
How regularly do I need to check the chemicals in my pool?
A pool’s chemicals need to be balanced and in good condition. You’ll also want to test the water weekly. After heavy rain or inclement weather, you should also perform a check and make adjustments to keep your pool water clear and safe to swim in.
How long should I wait to swim after a chemical treatment?
If we recommend “shocking” your pool, we’ll make sure to advise you on what to expect and when you can get back to swimming.
We typically tell our customers that manufacturers recommend re-entering the pool when chlorine levels return to normal. For most pools, that just takes an hour or so. We’re happy to perform this service for you. We are also happy to answer any questions our customers have about the work we have done or how to keep your pool running smoothly.
When can you get started?
When you call us, our team will take all your information quickly over the phone. They’ll consider any necessary details like your pool size or materials before starting work on yours. Then, our team will do our best to schedule a service call in just a few days. We’ll work with you to develop a regular schedule for cleaning and maintenance.
What are all the kinds of pool repairs ABC can handle?
We can handle any problem in fresh and saltwater pools. Our skilled technicians are trained to provide excellent customer service. ABC can help with:
- Leaking skimmers, filters or pumps
- Salt cell or pump blockages
- Non-working filters
- Clogged pool cleaners
- Pool heater problems
- Deteriorated pump fittings
- Excessive air in pump baskets
- Pool lights that aren’t working correctly
- Leaking or another type of water loss
- Broken pumps or filters

My pool looks great, but the area around it could use some help. Can ABC do anything?
ABC offers other home services to make our customers’ lives easier.
Just a few examples of what we can do include:
- swapping out the grass around your pool area to artificial turf or another species that can handle the high foot traffic and moisture in these spots
- sprucing up your pool deck with ornamental plants or attractive beds
- controlling your mosquitoes so you aren’t constantly swatting away these bloodsucking pests while you are trying to relax
- creating pathways, walkways and other hardscaping features to help your swimmers easily move to and from your home
What can you tell me about your pool technicians' qualifications?
We are proud to have highly-trained professionals on our team. In addition to keeping up to date with the latest industry standards and new technologies, we put all of our employees through rigorous in-house training. Our experience and top-notch customer service make us the preferred pool provider here in Richmond.
How do you address pool owners' concerns about the impact of chemicals on kids and furry family members?
We care deeply about the well-being of your family. That’s why we are happy to address any concerns you may have about the chemicals we are using in your pool. We use the standards set forth by the Association of Pool & Spa Professionals. Our team is also knowledgeable about manufacturer guidelines on how to maintain and repair your pool.
Will I be charged extra for pool chemicals?
Our pool service cost includes any pool chemicals we need to add to your pool to maintain the levels recommended by the manufacturer.
In the rare case that an ABC specialist discovers a bigger problem with your pool chemicals, we will be in touch about a solution, but we will wait for your approval before we start any additional work. In these situations, we may need to schedule an appointment separate from your normal cleaning time.
What parts are you able to replace in my pool?
We will only recommend replacing a part when absolutely necessary. When we do advise installing a new part instead of repairing it, our experienced pool technicians can put in these components, sometimes in the same visit. To give you a better idea of what types of work we usually perform, we can swap out:
- Pumps
- Filters
- Cleaners
- Pool lighting
- Valves
- Heaters
- Chlorinators
- Circulation and suction lines
- Time clocks
- PVC pipe (plus any needed materials to fix leaks)
When performing a repair, does ABC install used parts?
The ABC team is always ready and willing to help you out. We have a wide range of parts on hand, so in many cases, your repair will be quick with no shipping fees! If we can make the necessary repairs using existing components, then we will. If you notice any issues with the parts in your home, don’t hesitate to ask us for help. We’ll only use new components when installing them and make sure everything works correctly before leaving.

What Our Customers Are Saying
Toni Covarrubias

“So far the service we've been getting is as scheduled. However, this time I was not notified 30 minutes prior to arrival as originally told. The front looks great as usual. The backyard wasn't edged as nice as the front (or at all?), and I really would have appreciated deep edging around our firepit. Addendum 12/8/23: Changed 3 stars to 5 stars for follow-up service! After the above review, I was contacted by ABC in regards to my initial review. Anne was very courteous and eager to send someone out to follow up on my concerns. Arrangements were made that met my schedule, and the crew was very prompt in their arrival on said scheduled date. Our backyard is now 10 times better. Granted, there is still clean up to do on our part, but now it will be so much easier. Certainly worth the subscription price based on customer service alone! Photos depict final work first vs initial service.”

“I had an ammonia type smell in certain areas of the house along with numerous aggressive flies. I called ABC Home and Commercial Services first thing in the morning. A supervisor stopped at my house on his way into work to locate the problem. He then had a specialized technician-Matt- come by. He went in both attics and found some possible entry points at the roof whirlybird vents. He sealed them up. I have used ABC for years for my rodent exclusion protection on the house and have been very happy with them. I highly recommend their services.”
