In Northeast Florida, summer is when your backyard truly comes to life. Whether you’re lounging poolside in Nocatee, entertaining friends in Ponte Vedra, or hosting family barbecues in St. Augustine, your pool becomes the centerpiece of it all. But while the fun ramps up, so do your pool’s demands.
More sun. More rain. More swimmers. All of it adds up to more wear and tear.
At Clarkson Pools, we’ve spent over three decades helping homeowners across Northeast Florida protect their investment and enjoy their pool to the fullest. Here are five ways professional pool maintenance can help keep things running smoothly all summer long.
1) Clear, Balanced Water—Without the Headaches
Summer in Jacksonville brings heat, humidity, and surprise thunderstorms—each of which affects your pool’s water chemistry. Throw in a holiday weekend with a dozen swimmers and suddenly your water’s gone from crystal clear to cloudy and uninviting.
Professional maintenance eliminates the trial-and-error of balancing chemicals. Our certified technicians monitor and adjust:
- Chlorine and pH levels
- Alkalinity and calcium hardness
- Stabilizers and seasonal variables
The result? Safe, comfortable water that’s always ready when you are—without constantly running to the pool store or second-guessing test strips.
2) Protect Your Equipment from Florida’s Wear and Tear
Your pool pump, filter, and heater are working harder than ever during summer’s peak. Without regular inspection, even minor issues—like clogged skimmers or an imbalanced motor—can lead to expensive breakdowns or premature replacements.
With Clarkson’s routine maintenance, we:
- Inspect and clean your equipment
- Monitor performance and pressure
- Flag early warning signs before they turn into major headaches
Think of it as preventative healthcare for your pool—extending its life and saving you money in the long run.
3) Reclaim Your Time—We’ll Handle the Dirty Work
Summer calendars fill up quickly. Between beach days, family visits, and everything in between, nobody wants to spend their Saturday brushing tiles or vacuuming the deep end.
That’s where we come in.
With a Clarkson maintenance plan, our team handles the full routine:
- Skimming and debris removal
- Tile brushing and vacuuming
- Surface inspections and waterline cleaning
- Weekly chemical testing and balancing
So you can spend more time enjoying your pool—and less time maintaining it.
4) Create a Safer Swimming Environment
Water that looks clean isn’t always safe—especially in summer when contaminants multiply faster. Sweat, lotions, and body oils can introduce bacteria, while hot weather accelerates algae growth and chemical degradation.
Our pool care professionals ensure:
- Sanitizer levels stay in the safe zone
- Circulation systems are functioning properly
- Potential hazards (loose tiles, sharp edges, faulty lights) are caught early
This peace of mind is especially important for homes with kids, pets, or frequent guests.
5) Keep Your Pool Looking & Performing Like New
Pool surfaces and finishes are constantly exposed to chemicals, sun, and Florida’s sandy winds. Without regular maintenance, even the most beautiful pool can start to show signs of age—stains, fading, or scaling.
