Your Pool Closing Services questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on HomeGuide.

How much does a pool closing cost?

Pool closing costs $250 to $500 for inground pools and $150 to $300 for above-ground pools on average. Closing (or winterizing) a swimming pool is a service done by professionals to make sure none of the pool components are damaged by freezing temperatures in the winter.

What is pool closing?

Closing a pool means preparing a swimming pool and the related equipment for wintertime and freezing temperatures. This involves a deep cleaning, lowering the water level slightly, adding chemicals, and draining plumbing.

If you live in an area that's warm all year, you may only need to cover your pool when you're not using it. If you live in a colder climate, you should close your pool when temperatures drop below 65 degrees and before they hit freezing levels.

When should I close my pool for winter?

The best time to close your pool for the winter is in September or October, or whenever the temperatures regularly drop below 65 degrees Fahrenheit. In the warmest parts of the U.S. like Florida or California, you can usually keep your pool open year-round.

How low should the water level be when closing a pool?

Your water level should be 3 to 6 inches below the skimmer during winterizing. This means removing about 12 inches of water from the pool each year and then filling it back in after the winter months.

How long does it take to close a pool?

Closing a pool takes around 2 hours on average, depending on the pool type and size. Above-ground pools typically take less time than inground pools or those with added features like inground hot tubs. Custom-fitted pool covers are harder to install and may take longer.

Do I need to clean my pool before closing it?

Yes, it's important to clean your pool before or during the closing process. Removing any leaves, bugs, or debris helps prevent algae growth and long-term staining. Make sure to skim debris off the top of the water, vacuum, and brush the bottom and sides of the pool.

How do I choose a pool service company?

Follow these steps when looking for pool closers near you:

  • Compare at least 3 estimates from experienced, reputable contractors.
  • Look specifically for members of the Association of Pool and Spa Professionals (APSP).
  • Read reviews from customers on HomeGuide and Google.
  • Be wary of the lowest estimates, which might indicate poor-quality work.
  • Get an estimate or contract in writing before they start.
  • Wait until they finish closing your pool to pay in full.

What questions should I ask pool closers?

Ask these questions to help find the best pool service professionals possible:

  • How long have you been opening and closing pools in this area?
  • Are you licensed, bonded, and insured?
  • What services are included in this price?
  • Can you open my pool next year as well? How much does that cost?
  • Do you charge a flat rate or hourly fee?
  • How long will this pool closing take?
  • Will you drain my pool as part of the closing?
  • Do you have any deals or promotional rates?
